Unknown amount of time in Photoshop CS6 and Sketchbook Pro.
Since I now have my new laptop, I had to upgrade, errr, everything. So I’ll be switching to CS6 and the new Creative Cloud after a long bout of number crunching and waffling. (The numbers say that the full master collection plus one upgrade, thus two years, costs over that of five years of Creative Cloud at the current price and one year of the cloud is almost identical to the cost of an upgrade.) So yeah. I’m currently poking at a webcomic idea and trying to figure out how this whole hosting thing works. These are some of the characters from it. The two singled out so far are Isaiah and Emily.
Approximately 1 hour in Sketchbook Pro.
Drawn while working to my Budapest playlist. It was going to be the cover but I’m tired and lazy and it’s now 3am and I have a very important shoe sale to attend tomorrow. That is not in any way a joke. So yes. Clint. Natasha. What happened in Budapest. Nowhere near done.
Approximately 1 hour total (?) in Photoshop.
Just some quick sketches while working on a new gig! (No, it’s really not for Marvel.) I couldn’t get myself to not draw something badass and I wanted to get it out of my system. So Natasha happened. Then I had to get dressed an be social. Whoops?
Because of this new gig along with teaching Photoshop/animation at a summer camp, I’ll probably not have too many new finished things for the next while. But I’ll hopefully have warmups and maybe speed paintings whenever I can!
Also, if you’re interested and happen to have the funds, I’m trying to buy myself a new laptop. Consider getting something from me here.











I’m so sorry for your dashes but I realized that I hadn’t scanned and uploaded the large majority of my sketchbook! Whoops! Anyways, this is the large majority of what I’ve done. There’s maybe ten pages of stuff I’ve scanned already and twenty or so blank left in this book. So yeah, I absolutely realize this is massive and I honestly have no idea how it’s going to upload so… Yeah. Sorry for any repeats. Now to shower and head to my LCS for Free Comic Book Day!

The 117th division was highly trained, lavishly outfitted, and generally not to be messed with. They were also most mixed battalion in the entirety of the United Armed Forces. It’s often said they they scraped the bottom of the barrel but, in truth, the recruiters simply found another barrel entirely. Each member is hand chosen for some unique skill they exhibited, be it skills in combat or a penchant for infiltration and assassination. If someone is in the 117th, they belong there and may the powers grant their targets something better in the next life.
I don’t know, I’d been playing a lot of ME3 multiplayer when I started working on this one. I think it might even show a little bit.

Sarafina Felicitis hasn’t been a captain of her own vessel for very long but she plans to make a long (and hopefully profitable) career of it. She was inspired at a young age by vids of a similar captain’s exploits, only to find out that his weren’t real. Still, she’s determined to make her way in the ‘verse as a hand for hire and occasional pirate with her trust bot Wellington by her side. Just as soon as she finds a crew…
So yeah, this started out as just a random doodle and grew into something more developed as I went. Yes, the vids she watched as a child were Firefly/Serenity and she’s the only person in her universe who talks like that unironically. Mostly because I maybe accidentally genderbent Mal Reynolds. I had a very powerful urge to name her robot Wheatley because reasons. He’s essentially a glorified smartphone.

What can be written about Toni Stark that hasn’t already been tweeted? She’s a billionaire genius playboy philanthropist (her words) with enough guts and knowledge to see any project she puts effort behind to the very end. Take for instance the tale of her escape from insurgents (which can be seen in her many interviews afterwards), the change of Stark Industries from military juggernaut to peaceful science R&D (which can be read about on numerous blogs), or her exploits as the Iron Man and one of the Avengers (which can be read about exclusively on her own blog). Toni Stark does what she wants.
In short, I really really really wanted to genderbend the Avengers because yes but all that’s come out so far is Toni. I’m working on it and thinking about doing all of them in, like, runway fashions or something…
Approximately 2-3 hours in pencil (non-photo blue, .5 red lead, 2B technical) in sketchbook. Done forĀ DSG 1639.
The legend of the Face Eater is relatively wide-spread, though often contained to low-lying swampy areas. In the American Southeast, it tells of a personage that is both man and woman, cursed by a witch for their vanity and arrogance. They are doomed to wander the swamps alone, carefully carving off the faces of their prey with their long fingernails to better draw in the next victim. The name comes from the bodies that are found, faceless and often with large hunks viciously ripped from the rest of their bodies. Some say that a new Face Eater is made each time a face is stolen.
This is in no way attempting to belittle or make fun of trans* persons. If I have offended you, please tell me. The “mix of man and woman” is meant to be a way for the face eater to entice prey physically attracted to either as it sees fit. Technically, it’s neither. There was just no way to include this in the flavor text without getting off track.

Wyverns are nothing without their wings. If they are rendered incapable of flight, they often fall into depressive states, no longer tending to themselves, barely eating, and hardly hiding themselves as the normally secretive creatures often do. They have been known to give up on covering any tracks, sleep near roads and frequented paths, and to move as close as possible to humans in the hopes of a swift death. Even a wyvern with a chance of healing has been known to exhibit these tendencies.

Okay, get ready for a huge dump of sketches. I’m now moved into my new apartment and I’ve got my work area mostly set up. I’m working on a dual screen setup but the basics are all here. More importantly, I have my scanner! So, here’s a few sketches I did of Rue once I finished reading The Hunger Games (and long before I saw the movie) and one of a very random girl, possibly a hacker doing a victory dance? She’s the only recent sketch I don’t have a story to go with so she’s lumped with Rue to save space and your dash. I’ve got five more coming that I’ll be uploading as I finishing typing backstories.
