Recent Commissions

I recently had a plumbing emergency, and reached out for commissions to help fill the financial gap. Several folks came through and helped me in my time of need. Here are the illustrations I produced for them! Regina Amethyst for ArchivistX on Twitter Collena Browne for TheKEYBLADEkid on Twitter Lady Sankofa belonging to James Mason…

What’s Been Up – January 2023 Edition

Hello, just wanted to talk about what I’ve been up to lately. After releasing the Jet Dancer game, I’ve been pondering my next move. Unfortunately, a project that I thought had some potential, the “Amari Rift” project ran aground creatively and I put it aside indefinitely. While I don’t have any clear plans, I have…

My thoughts on AI “Art”

AI is definitely a threat to artists. But it’s also not going to go away. People who are using AI instead of hiring an artist are the kind of folks who wouldn’t have been willing to pay your prices anyway. They would have looked for discounts, for free work, for whatever it takes to spend…

Next Up: Amari Rift

I’m proud that I completed Jet Dancer and it’s made a few sales. But I’m less interested in promoting that product and more interested in moving forward with growing as a game developer, correcting my mistakes and improving my skills.

Updates: September 2022

Well, this month I had a birthday. Didn’t do much to celebrate it, just been doing what I’ve been doing: moving forward on the Jet Dancer game. I’m getting close to the end of the development process, at least when it comes to content and functionality. All the stages have been complete for a while…

While these may seem simpler than the previous efforts, I’m working on making my art more consistent. This means refining my cel-shading approach rather than…

Illustrations – 20220219

I need to come up with something consistent to title these blog posts. Anyway, I’m coming off of a sort of drawing binge, having managed to produce a new work of original art every day for the last week, far more than I did last time. So here we go! Warrior This one was something…

The Latest DM Girls

I’ve been pondering getting away from the name ‘Random Practice Babes’ because it’s kind of lame. Something simple and clean like DM Girls (Dualmask’s Girls) might be the way to go for future branding. Anyway, I drew a couple over as many days and thought I’d share them here. Keep in mind that the following…

Here’s a couple of character designs I did recently. I colored this one for fun while enjoying shows on Netflix. I like to draw random characters as a cooldown from working, although this drawing isn’t new. Here is the original sketch. Another one that is more recent from start to finish is this unnamed Sorceress…
