This stuff is wild. Experimenting with a Super-Black acrylic, that absorbs ~97% of light. The camera doesn’t quite capture it, but the effect is a bit 2.5D. #gayrubber

Friday @bsky.art #cowboys pen and ink.

It’s been creepy foggy here in Vancouver…

Morning study… @bsky.art #gayartist

Not all ideas are winners, which is why I sketch them out on the iPad or in a Sketchbook... For example, #furries as #kaiju feel just a whimsical step too far. Well, maybe I could play with the composition a bit... @bsky.art

Well, hey there #gaycowboy … an experiment in inking very little.

Quick Study for an upcoming piece, debating the name. “He followed me home…” or “Sunday Morning” Let me know your thoughts in the comments. #gayleather #gaypups @bsky.art

Messing around with some pens this morning. A couple coloured gels, and a brush pen. @bsky.art #gayartist #gayleathermen #gayleatherart

i cane across a photo by @geargregj of Lloyd James on instagram. The pose grabbed me, so I did a rough thumbnail… but something was missing… what was he running from? And then I got carried away. #gayleather #gayscifi?

I originally did this as a non-event poster, but it never really took. Adding the GRUNT night header for VML’s monthly leather night, brought it together. I really like the contrast of the pop-aesthetic and the classic #gayleatherman. #gayartist #popart #gayleatherfetish #leathernight @bsky.art

My hometown has a municipal holiday called, “Wrestling Day”. It’s either for wrestling with the continued hangover, or because we already have a boxing 🥊 day. So, a quick sketch of wrestlers… luchadoras anyways. #gayartist #gaywresting #gayluchadoras #gayluchadores

Quick thumbnail doodle, so he’s a pocket gay? #gayartist #gayleathermen

A little #YuleCat inspired Christmas illustration.

I’ve been working out the concept for a pulp style gay science hero in the footsteps of the Phantom, Doc Savage, and Adam Strange. It’s getting there, as I iteratively simplify to make him faster to draw. #gaycomics #gayartist #gayheroes

Make Christmas dark again…

Revisiting my time on #batmantheanimatedseries

Wednesday Warmup - Flash Gordon in the style of Al Williamson. Alex Raymond created Flash Gordon leveraging classical figure drawing, Williamson brought a brevity of line and flow to it that is magnificent. Williamson went on to draw the #StarWars series of comics, which feature astonishing art.

Some warm-up sketches from last week using IG’s @BLUF5290 as photo ref… #gayartist #leathermen #tomoffinland

These panels won’t immediately be used, but I have a good idea where they fit in the future of my current project. Definitely referencing Al Williamson’s Flash Gordon designs for these.

Sometimes you get sidetracked and draw Flash Gordon spaceships as envisioned by Al Williamson… for reasons.

Making the "Two Tradies" Animation... sort of. How Making a poster got carried away... again. https://njohnstonart.substack.com/p/making-the-two-tradies-animation

A Wednesday warmup sketch before getting into today’s comicbook art using the handsome AF @mirotomarkov.bsky.social as a photo reference.

After looking at the cover for the upcoming #comicbook project, I decided to try really pushing the roping pose… And that’s the good stuff! Much more dynamic, and ready to ink after a few touch ups. #gaycomicbook #gaycowboys #gaygeek

I’m just not quite feeling the #comicbook cover for project I’m working on. Going to try pushing the roping pose a bit (I mean a lot). #gaycowboys

So what happens if you take Space:1999 (sci-fi deep cut), and reimagine it with a #gayporn vibe… this version is a trailer for VML’s upcoming GRUNT Night. #gayartist #scifi #gaycomics

Guinness the wonder-dog felt he needed to entertain us in Whistler. Did I say needed? I meant insisted.
