Tits and Spikes

Tits and Spikes
This is a drawing from 2008 that used a photo of Luba Shumeyko as a reference. She still looks amazing! The drawing was touched up in 2024 as the OG was NSFW.

Balo the Burnt

Balo the Burnt
This is an ink sketch which was painted over digitally. The original sketch was very small, maybe 2 inches across, and was made in 2023. However, the final drawing was completed in June 2024. The character is also known as Balo the Runt and if you encounter this name while playing Elden Ring, it's probably me.

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!

Figure Studies - Bodybuilders - 2009

Since I like drawing muscles, I often study photographs of bodybuilders. It's something I've been fascinaed with since I was a child. Amazing what can be achieved with training and some chemistry these days. Most people unfamiliar with bodybilding and the extremely grotesque sport it has become these days, simply don't know what's possible.
Big Ron - Figure Study from 2009
The man is a legend. Light weight!
Dennis Wolf - Figure Study from 2009
Dennis Wolf had one year at the Olympia when he made everyone look silly. I believe this drawing used a photo from that Olympia as a reference. Too bad it went downhill from there for the big guy.

Dragon - Art from 2009

Dragon and Rider - Art from 2009
This was a pencil drawing from 2009 that I had started to paint over digitally but never finished. As a result I don't think this artwork was ever published anywhere. I've improved a lot with my dragons since this art was done, but this was one of the bigger illustrations I attempted at the time.

Olympian

Olympian Art from 2008
This is a drawing from 2008 that never really got finished or published anywhere. I just touched it up and brought it up to a more presentable state. I used to make some pretty cool stuff, don't have the same drive anymore.
