The necromancer I did for UNDER THE SHADOW OF HELFAST SPIRE, a Shadowdark module by Bob Mason. I did all the class illustrations for this one and they're all really fun takes on classic TTRPG archetypes. The kickstarter is going swimmingly, check it out here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/bob...

My highest of recommends for this game -- and a little drawing inspired by it! ❤️‍🔥 store.steampowered.com/app/2406680/... Jan's art for KROMLECH is incredibly cool and inspiring, and this team could use some eyes on the game during its early access 🙏

If I had to pick! Honorable mention to Warcraft III and every 3D Elder Scrolls, which consumed probably 10% of my teenage years

I'm not a call-your-senator guy--I think we're pretty far past that being useful--but please, if you understand the importance of these forests, use the links in the article to object to this decision. Defending these places is a cause I'd probably die for, and would definitely [redacted] for.

I've completed a comic adaptation of one of my favorite Clark Ashton Smith stories, THE ABOMINATIONS OF YONDO, which turns 100 this year! It's my first comic in full color, which was a hell of a learning experience. It's available now digitally or in print by mid-March. lizardbrainart.bigcartel.com

Turning 24 today! 🧙‍♂️ Shares of my art are very much appreciated 🌛

I'll keep this train going Summoning: @christiandegn.bsky.social @gustaffovargas.bsky.social @georgeouthwaite.bsky.social @vor-bokor.bsky.social

Hopping aboard the art train, thanks @jorgeperal.net ! Choo choo @artofcaustic.bsky.social @azuremeraki.bsky.social @zeburnay.bsky.social @mentat0209.bsky.social

After years of planning and dicking around I started the script for my next long-form graphic novel today. It will definitely still be more years before the thing sees the light of day, but at least some part of it exists in the material realm now, not just as a pile of notes and stray ideas.

Reposting now that I actually have some followers on here

Here's a little preview of my first comic in FULL COLOR which I have been working on for a little while now. It's a short one and should be out in a few weeks.

This game is gonna be sick. Also, give Jan a follow, if you like my work you'll love his!

A knight called by the deep, now an eternal guardian of the sunken city... This is from a few years ago and I don't think it ever made it on here.

⚔️24 HOURS UNTIL THE CROWDFUND LAUNCHES at 8am EST, Feb 12th🧙‍♂️ 👉 www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b... 👈 This is the other side of the double-sided poster every backer will receive! Thanks again to @emmastonephoto.bsky.social, and to @lizardbrain-art.bsky.social for bringing his friend to the party!

My loot drop: 1) 12oz latte 2) Miscellaneous doom metal t-shirt 3) Cool branch with lichen I found 4)Silver sword necklace, worth 10gp 5) 1 knife/sword/axe/bow/gun widely used between 500CE-1985 6) sketchbook, 80% blank

I don't talk about current events on here much because a) I am frankly not much of a Poster at the best of times and b) most of my current takes boil down to "everyone currently dictating the direction of our civilization needs to be [REDACTED] in the [REDACTED] without delay"

Quote with your horn art!

Everybody follow this man

Comics people! Who's your favorite colorist and why? I'm trying to study up so I'm not stuck in monochrome forever.

In the past year I've taken several months of longsword fighting, begun learning to blacksmith, and completed one of the hardest hikes in the state. Now I just have to build a moonshine still for "potions", get back into archery and evade arrest a few times and I'll be a well-rounded RPG character

It is #PortfolioDay once more. I'm a traditional illustrator specializing in pen and ink. I've contributed to a number of fiction publications and TTRPG projects, and I am currently looking for more work!

This book exposed my little six-year-old brain to the concept of cosmic horror for the first time. Moomin always has this strange balance of cozy and sinister and I love it for that

Done. How much chaos can I cram into a painting? All of it. First image created at @helioscopepdx.bsky.social "The Encounter", 12"x18" acrylic on panel. #elricofmelnibone #AdventureAtSea #redsonja #octopus #tallships #helioscopepdx

Art vs artist 2025 edition. A year of creatures of all types and trying to remember how color works. We survived another one, y'all.

🐴Jirel of Joiry rides again...if these dang skeletons will let her! @mollytanzer.bsky.social brings us a new official tale with no less than four illustrations by @lizardbrain-art.bsky.social💀 Check it out, and more, in issue 5 of New Edge Sword & Sorcery: newedgeswordandsorcery.com/product-cate...

Sketch vs Final

The new Deathstalker movie is so much fun, y'all. It's like Psycho Goreman for sword and sorcery fans. Go watch it ASAP

ADORATION OF THE METEOR This one is straight from the dome. Felt very good to do a finished piece that wasn't a commission and wasn't for some personal comic or worldbuilding project, but just pure weird stuff from my brain. It's been a long time.

Goran is a goddamn treasure and getting suspended for trying to help people is unconscionable. Bring him back!

More is coming! Still a few years off yet, but I have some things cooking up in the ol' bronze cauldron

Working (slowly but steadily) on a big personal piece. Trying to remember how to make art that isn't "for" something.

Everyone's talking about how Del Toro's Frankenstein is about daddy issues but the main daddy issue is that Lars Mikkelsen's character looks EXACTLY like my dad to the point where I did multiple double takes to confirm it was not my actual father on screen

The mist-shrouded morning at Point Reyes National Seashore, hiking with @sallyfisherprice.bsky.social, felt not just haunted or ethereal, but otherworldly. The zenith of that sensation came when a huge bull elk appeared out of the landscape as if a ghost from another land entirely.

Man I love drawing dead guys

I can finally show off probably my favorite piece I've done this year--the Halloween merch design for @moviemadness.org. Beyond stoked to do more work for the best movie rental/theater/museum/temple in the world. And those practical effects are sooo satisfying to replicate in ink

"The apparitions are getting worse. The air in the vaults feels like a thin curtain that could be ripped away at any moment. I do not know what door I opened in search of the afterlife, but I pray to all the gods it isn't the one our souls go to in the end." A quick one for the spookiest of seasons

Made a little block print. It's hard to find inspiration for personal work in these fucked up times, but a new medium always helps me. Spend time with the people, places and experiences that make life worth living, and return ready to take the heads of those who would steal those things from us.

🖌️ ARTIST SPOTLIGHT🎨 Linnea Sterte, aka @decassette.bsky.social, made this beautiful interior illustration for WASTE FLOWERS by Bryn Hammond, and is returning to create a new full page illustration for WHAT ROUGH BEAST? Learn more here 👉 www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b...

Our Movie Madness Presents Creature Features risograph print featuring artwork from Portland illustrator, Simon Underwood (@lizardbrain-art.bsky.social) is now available in the shop! Come on in and check it out!

Poster I did for Movie Madness here in Portland for their Creature Features block. One of the largest ink pieces I've ever done!

Inktober 52 - Virgo A witch. Pens and white ink. I'm open for commissions! #art #inktober #inktober2025 #inktober52 #inktober52virgo #fantasy

Some pieces I did for an adaptation of Clark Ashton Smith's Tale of Satampra Zeiros a few years ago. Not sure if they were ever used but they were super fun to draw.

Thinking about GARGANTUAN: "the queen's an essentially good person being sabotaged by her aristocratic nature--thematically it's about accepting the loss of control and the unpredictability of the future--" Describing GARGANTUAN in front of a camera: "yep. I drawed it. It has a BIG monster."

I think I have to come to terms with the fact that, unlike seemingly every other artist and writer I respect, I'm too dumb to read Gene Wolfe.

Money is tight this month, so I suppose now is a good time to mention that I have a store with some neat stuff in it. Skeleton T-shirts! Lizardman prints! A full-length sword-and-sorcery kaiju graphic novel! Anything you feel like picking up is much appreciated. lizardbrainart.bigcartel.com

My twitter is dead. I don’t wanna a burner. All I want is 27K bluski subs

Turned 32. Spent some time with @esque-arts.bsky.social and the local mountain.

"IT'S SATAN! EL DIABLO!" from a youtube video from 2012 I could never find again. It wormed its way into my brain and has never left
