We got two clean wins this month! That hasn't happened in a while. We did get a tie for second place in the Toygenic category, so I'll have to roll a tie breaker to see who gets into the Redemption Poll in March, but we will deal with that later.
Another advantage to having clear front runners this times is that I was able to get a bit of ...

Just a little concept sketch of a thing I might like to do some day. Still a long, long ways off, but it felt good to finally put the idea on paper as it were. I'm sure the specific designs will change over time, but I think I managed to capture the general mood/atmosphere I had in mind.

At last, we've come to the end of my Grand Rapids Comic Con sketches. This was another non-commission. It was the back half of Sunday and things were beginning to wind down, but I still felt like drawing, so I decided to look out in a random direction and draw the character of the first cosplayer I saw, which happened to be, you guessed it, She-...

Choujin Sentai Jetman is a fantastic Sentai Series in general. It's commonly regarded as the "season that saved Sentai" due to its hitting big after a number of seasons with declining ratings. It's also often pointed to as a great season to start on for new comer...

I love Doom just for how freakin' melodramatic he is. The way I see it, he comes in one of two modes, silent brooding or Shatner-level scene chewing. So when he won, I had two ideas of how I wanted to draw him: slumped in a massive throne, glowering at the world, or going ham and shouting to the heavens. Obviously I went with the second, mostly ...
2019-11-25 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostSpinning off of the regular sketch theme but with a slightly more narrow focus, the Secret Stash theme for December is going to be Video Game Girls. When I worked at the toy store, the electronics/video game department was my area of expertise, and Christmas was easily one of the busiest times of year with a ton of new releases ...
2019-11-25 15:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt's the Holiday Season, and this time of year it's really easy to get caught up in trivial things like charity, togetherness, and family. I think it's important that we all remember the real reason for the season: Getting awesome gifts and supporting our capitalist masters! That's why the theme for December is Toygenic!

There's kind of a funny story behind his one. It's another sketch from Grand Rapids Comic Con and it was kind of a commissions, but also kinda not. See, on Saturday, this dude came up to me and started talking to me about my commissions. Asked about my prices, how long it usually took me. All the usual stuff. He even told me what he wanted, a sk...

Grand Rapids Comic Con turned out to be a pretty sketch-heavy show, and it all kicked of with this sketch of Inosuke from Demon Slayer. I haven't watched that series yet, but I've been aware of it since watching a video* discussing this very character on YouTube; and like "Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood" and "Death Note" before it, drawing a ...

Leading up to Grand Rapids Comic Con, I decided I wanted to do another marker sketch example piece. I'd also been seeing a LOT of My Hero Academia cosplay at most of the other shows I'd done this year, so it seemed like a good idea to do something from that. (Not that you had to twist my arm, of course. I love MHA and I've been wanting to draw m...

This was another harrowing one! Doom and Forrester were tied for some time, but Doom ultimately triumphed. (I gotta say, though, I love the idea of those two particular characters facing off. Like, I'd read that comic.) The (not so) Secret Stash poll ended up being a FOUR WAY TIE! Funnily enough, I expected Kimberly to be a total spoiler, but sh...

Ah, Game of Thrones. It breaks my heart the way you ended, and not in the way I think you meant for it to. I actually had a bit of an existential moment while working on this, realizing I was putting a lot of work into recreating a scene that, well, I didn't hate the scene itself, I guess, but the anti-climatic ending that it kind of represents....
