A crop of my piece for the Voltron Legendary Defender anthology! Because when given a show full of potential dazzling sci-fi environments and fun mechas, we’re all really just here for some food.
Pre-order it here or check out the official blog!
I accidentally found out that Netflix has the first three seasons of Digimon, spent half the weekend reliving my childhood, and felt like I might as well draw something for my fave rookie digimon out of the original 8.
EDIT also: Gomamon

An older potential piece for an old theme show, that I decided not to submit because I wasn’t happy with it. I’ve come okay terms with it since, but it’s first on my list of “pieces I should redo entirely from the rough sketch” (I mean, jesus look at that arm there what was i doing?). Also included: one of the first rough sketches I scrapped.
An older comic of mine titled Undertow, originally posted as part of S2B2′s 2013 Artist Special. Dug it up while cleaning through my folders, thought it’s about time I crossposted it up here. Mildly nsfw (in the tiniest, tiniest panels).

Jumping on the witchsona bandwagon again this year. Here's mine from last year too.
Birthday picture for a friend, of mutual characters as Animal Crossing neighbors - both combined lineup and little transparent individual portraits.

I kept seeing that palette meme going around, but wasn't particularly fond of all the super-high-saturation or low-value ranges. For anyone that wants to try something a little different, here you go.
Have fun, everyone!

A cover illustration I volunteered for the February issue of Shousetsu Bang Bang, a webzine for original slash fiction. If that sounds like your sort of thing, definitely check it out! But here's your warning that the writing there is all various levels of NSFW
Early morning warmup sketches~
It's been a ...while. Jumping on the witchsona meme going around! Apparently I'm a witch specializing in bright obnoxious patterns and evil eyes.

Now one of the most adept filter-feeders of the sea, the Beast has developed a large, grooved crest that better amplifies its’ cries throughout the ocean, and serves the double purpose of an offensive battering ram when meeting predators or rivals. Such heavy plating has slowed the beast down tremendously, and sometimes it’s difficult to tell the crest apart from the shells and barnacles that grow on top of it and offer a layer of camouflage when it comes to the surface.

First “issue” of a project I’m calling Buckle Street. Pardon the poor scans, it is beyond my control for now.

I don't usually reblog art here BUT-
Really happy to see these guys start up Excavation again - it was a super fun little zine back when we were in school, and I'm sure things will only be better.
Also, everyone involved is fantastic with fantastic art, and you should definitely check out their work: Corinne Reid, Kevin Ilacqua, Chris Pianka, and Mike Vance! (who drew this short but sorry Mike, you get the short end of the stick in alphabetical order)
The Beast has now given up flying entirely, moving to the ocean to filter-feed and play, and the rocky shores to nest. They're highly social and have created a complicated method of communication through their echolocation, which they use when hunting in packs: herding schools of fish and shrimp close together before taking turns lunging in. They've developed a pouched neck, with which they take food home to their young.

In search of bigger prey, the Beast is no longer hesitant to dive right for its’ meal. Few fish can escape the cage of its’ beak, and the Beast is quick to swim after those that do, with a tail that serves as a rudder both underwater and in the air. It hunts in flocks, calling to each other with a loud bugle that reverberates through the Beasts’ crested beak.
