End of a Journey

The End of a Journey
This is an illustration I made in 2021 during what I would consider my most massive art dump ever. The colors don't work very well, esp the light and the sky mix, but I was trying new things and learning in the process.

Beholder - Digital Paintover 2024

Beholder - Digital Paintover 2024
This is another sketch that I intended to paint over for a long time. The original tiny ink sketch was made in 2022. Finally got around to it in the last week and here's the result. Unfortunately I lost the high-res file in the process of finalizing the image and creating the WIP animation.

It makes a buzzing sound!

Fairy - It makes a buzzing sound - Sketch from 2021
This fairy was painted as a demo on stream for about an hour in 2021. While not being an actual speed painting, this is about as speedpainty as I go... No refs were used, matter of fact I didn't even know what I was going to paint when we started, but it was February... so it descended into a Faebruary sketch. The entire thing was done in Photoshop.

Sword Hand

Sword Hand - Drawing from 2009 updated in 2024
This is a drawing from 2009. At the time I made this drawing I was a member of a team on conceptart.org which was called Doomsday Dream Clan, and we were in the midst of trying to participate in a team challenge. One of our team members was a young kid whose online handle was "Sword Hand" and I made this drawing in his honor. A reference of Adriana Lima was used for the face, but outside of that it was made up. Now about 15 years later I stumbled upon the original drawing while browsing my old archive and had to touch it up. If any of my old teammates stumble upon this, hit me up, miss you guys!

The Spear of Destiny

The Spear of Destiny - Drawing from 2016
This is a digital artwork from 2016. This was generally a bad year for me in terms of art, but this piece is one of my more complete ones I made at the time. It was originally NSFW but I've cleaned that up a little with the handy use of a boob strap!

Little bit of trivia, this weapon design and drawing was originally posted online in 2016. Dark Souls III expansion called The Ringed City came out in 2017. That game featured a weapon called The Splitleaf, which Miyazaki ripped off from my art and never gave me credit for. Thanks!

A drawing made during a demo to the kids in May 2024. This was a lesson in how to draw with a pencil, scan, and basic digital software overview for layers, filters, and blending options.

Alpha

Alpha
This is a drawing made in 2006 or 2007 that was painted over digitally, and updated yet again in 2024. It's actually a drawing I had lost over the years, I could not locate the PSD file for this work, but found a low res image online on one of my other sites. The character is from the Eternal Seven story.

This is a digital painting done in 2012. The original was NSFW, I touched it up in 2024 to make it more... user friendly! Entirely done in Photoshop.

Mixed Media Girl Painting

Mixed Media Girl Painting from 2007
2007 was the year I really started experimenting with digitally painting over my traditional drawings. This is an approach I still use more than a decade later and here is one of my earliest attempts at it. This was a pencil drawing that was painted over in Photoshop.

Drake Rider

Drake Rider from 2009
This is an old pencil drawing from 2009, which was painted over digitally.

I touched up this artwork in 2024, mostly bringing it into focus, making some slight color adjustments. I still love the way this drawing turned out, so many years later.

Dragon Attack

Dragon Attack
Pencil sketch from 2008 which was painted over in Photoshop. It was one of my first "epic" dragon paintings. Doesn't look so hot now, but I loved it at the time.

Hellguard

Hellguard
This is a pencil sketch that got painted over in Photoshop, made sometime in 2008. At the time I made this it was among my better illustrations and showcased my level as an artist. When I look back at it now there are many things I would change. Maybe this just needs to be redone!

However, this drawing was a huge step up for me in may regards. First off it was inspired by the work of an artist who went on to work for Blizzard. While making this illustration I feel like I actually learned a lot, even though it didn't necessarily translate to a better artwork.

This is also one of my first images I started doing WIPs for.

Jamie Eason Figure Study

Jamie Eason Figure Study
This was a digital painting made in 2007 for practice, using a photograph as a reference. Jamie Eason is a fitness model who became rather famous in the 2000s for her amazing looks and aesthetics. She's still around and looks great. I've always admired women with muscle, and this woman is aboslute perfection when it comes to appearance. Cheers!

Dryad Queen

Dryad Queen Character Design Final
This was a digital painting done for one of my favorite art streamers Stumpyfongo. He used to stream a lot in the midst of COVID, and I hung out there quite a bit while trying to do other stuff in the background. This specific drawing was done as part of a Lost Woods challenge, where participants had to draw characters they would find in a deep fantasy forest. I loved it!

The original concept sketch, I settled on the left one.
