Presto!

Tried my first #scrawlrbox and did the #scrawlrchallenge . Pretty fun! See my profile for the link to the video or search for "Shell Presto" on YouTube. https://www.instagram.com/p/CG7rUJvhvIL/?igshid=1607b3hml839k

Who is this beautiful woman? An interesting NPC for your next tabletop RPG session, for sure! But you'll have to get in on the Kickstarter for our first issue of Dauntless: The Heroic Adventure 'Zine to learn more about Leyla here. Just search for Dauntless on Kickstarter. It's chock full of my art, Mike's writing, and some awesome art by Kim Holm as well! There's two days left! Also, for those keeping track, this was my watercolor test. Turned out great, but took longer than I'd hoped. I was using Boku Undo Purplish Black, and I enjoyed the paint a great deal! #npc #rpg #illustration #watercolors #portrait https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgulpihBvb/?igshid=7x5wk35k1uup

Next up on testing different mediums are Copic markers. I limited myself to grays and... I don't know. Whenever I get a choice between cool and warm, I always lean cool, but I often think it looks too pale and icy on skin. So I tried a mix of warm and cool greys. This is Meteora from our Challenger Confidential books, by the way. You can read some of those stories at HeroicAdventureFiction or pick up the first book on Amazon. As a side note, I do want to shout out that this is the final week to get in on our RPG/literary 'zine, Dauntless. It's a great way to see more of my art, learn about the Ascension Epoch, and get some grand ideas to throw into your own campaign. Just search for Dauntless on Kickstarter. #copicmarkers #copic #illustration @copic_official @copic_official_us https://www.instagram.com/p/CBeDuKvBw48/?igshid=kp38m0v0jp6r

I have been told I need to share more art... and that person is right. I've fallen out of the habit of showing what I'm working on with all the craziness going on, and I, for one could use a little more focus. Likewise, the world could probably use a little more fantasy right now. So more Incorrigible IMPS panels! Using Ascension Epoch characters for Bexim's Bazaar magazine. If you want to read about the modern urban fantasy adventures of these characters, check out my profile links. #medievalfantasy #fantasyart https://www.instagram.com/p/B_LA2YpBNZJ/?igshid=15cz3h37h9b1s

You can watch me draw a pretty character of my own creation while I count down my favorite X-men and public domain characters, for your amusement. Channel link in my profile. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7buiedBotV/?igshid=vtebwpuai8qj

Work in progress for the next Martian War Chronicles book, Days of Wrath. Signalman is taking it to the Martians, and this time he has help.

I'm finally starting to own this drawing of Fighting Yank, as opposed to it owning me. It's been a rough #inktober2019 . I've been doing realtime drawing videos with Q&As this month, link in my profile. #fightingyank #ascensionepoch #inktober #illustration #instaart #artistsofinstagram #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/B3et3abB6FW/?igshid=1in5v3m0rs5z1

Back on the #inktober horse. More progress on my Fighting Yank piece for the next Martian War Chronicles book.

#inktoberFail What was I supposed to be doing today again? No inking so far, but painted the watchtower on this alien frontier fortress. #worthIt #terrain #warhammer #wargamingterrain #wargaming #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B3LiW5whHDJ/?igshid=156y1ivckv54p

John Silence's adopted son, he's the most normal person I know. A little work in progress with mostly watercolor pencils for an upcoming Ascension Epoch project, of course! #art #drawing #artistsofinstagram #instaart #ghosts #phantom #watercolorpencils https://www.instagram.com/p/B3BzreMB1bE/?igshid=rk5262pepj9e

Most times, drawing is super exciting and fun. However, sometimes it's a slog. Background marathon while nursing a cold, the perfect way to make a rough day rougher. But it turned out okay, and I'll make my deadline, so that's what matters most. You'll see these in this month's Incorrigible IMPS strip. #instaart #comics #makingcomics #imps #incorrigibleimps #ascensionepoch #dnd #artistsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B2bAKhSBjVR/?igshid=2tn8vmkja90d

Had a very blah drawing day. Was just feeling burnt, but I drew anyway, because that's what ya gotta do. It went slow, and I didn't get as much done as I wanted, but it was something, and that's better than nothing. (Labyrinth was mostly done yesterday.) Pressing on with this month's Incorrigible IMPS for Bexim's Bazaar, featuring medieval fantasized Ascension Epoch characters. #art #instaart #comics #fantasyart #dnd #ascensionepoch #beximsbazaar #imps #comicart #oc https://www.instagram.com/p/B2QwNElHrhq/?igshid=an3rowhqxfzn

The next Incorrigible IMPS strip is under way. It's always a good thing when the house you're investigating has a cave in its basement, right? Yeah, Labyrinth, Ruby, and Blackburn don't think so either. #ascensionepoch #beximsbazaar #incorrigibleimps #imps #comics #comicbook #dnd #fantasyart #medievalfantasy https://www.instagram.com/p/B2JGz4vhzul/?igshid=32f7sjbxwsuj
