If you wish LotR was cozier, welcome to my world "Argenta" 🍃

It's kind of only just settled in that I'm now the cover artist of a Grammy nominated album LOL Ludicrous behaviour to be quite honest

A follow up to the panel i created for ##STCReillustrated I also had the pleasure to contribute to the cover art for the first time! I hadn't drawn Amy Rose since I was a kid, so this was a lot of fun to revisit STC's version in all her 90's fashion glory. Check out the full comic below! #STC

i think art is good, and i think recognizing when artists are doing something new and weird is also good. here's me losing my shit about fake video games for nearly 2 hours youtu.be/5hkkCbxoaz0

It's Friday & time for more #DragonQuest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride! It has been 10 years since that fated day, but our chance at freedom has finally arrived. What has happened to the world in our long absence?

I've had the honour of yet again to be involved in the Sonic The Comic REILLUSTRATED project for its 5th issue! This time the focus was on Shortfuse the Cybernik and his creation story in this 2-part homage, each panel illustrated by a different artist. Check out my panel & the full comic below ❤

Somehow recording with @theedrewgamer.bsky.social at the wee hours running on nothing but sleep-deprived chaotic goblin energy to get through & somehow we made nothing short of magic ~* *When i check the footage tomorrow it'll just be me chewing the mic for 40 solid minutes, yelling & dribbling

LRP there were a lot of authors at worldcon with ai covers. one of them was so similar to a real artist's original robot character that people kept asking if that artist had done the cover and the author had no idea who they were. seriously demoralizing. goddamn scabs is that they are
