Job Hunt, Things from, and the Mystery Onion.

Its sad when March takes me by surprise. For whatever reason I still thought there were a couple days left in February.March is a bit bitter-sweet for me. I'm bidding farewell to a job that wasn't too bad considering what it entailed, and am back on the hunt for another. In one way this actu...

Isaac Fenton (rough sketch) - February 23

For last month's Patron sketch I was asked to draw an intriguing character from a D&D game we are in (Played by Joff). He's a professor as well as a spellcaster of quite high regard (He's also quite high level if I remember correctly). I was tasked with capturing the air of 'Learned ...

Back to Sketchwork

Will be sending out the next Patron sketch query today. I apologise again for the week's delay.For those that asked, my father is doing better. He's older, so it takes him time to recover. He's not 100% but he's getting there, and my scramble to take care of stuff for him should be o...

Tylviika Homecoming (300dpi version)

The 300dpi version of Tylviika Homecoming.-T.J.

Tylviika Homecoming - February 15

Tylviika is in the colder regions of the Aegencald (A southern type of 'south pole' continent on the world). Despite frigid temperatures, Khavijas people have settled there for ages.Sort of imagined a pair of family members returning home after a long trek.-T.J.

A slight delay in this month's sketch

Hey all,A family health issue has come up rather suddenly today. The Patron sketch for this month will be announced a week later than normal, and started at the beginning of next month.I'm going to be taking care of more things on top of working a job and the painting, and it means I have less a...

Javarran Village (rough sketch) - February 9

Wanted to try scenery. Basic roughs of a Javarran (wolf people) village in the Aegencald.

Three Troubles - January 29

I'm lucky enough to have a couple D&D games I participate in. In one I get to be a player (something I haven't done effectively in ages), the other is a game that I run. While I don't know if the game I run is terribly good, I do like drawing out some of the NPC's and characters in t...

Back after a short (but unplanned) hiatus.

Wanted to post a brief update since it's been a little while since the last painting was posted.I had an 'update' on Windows 10 that seemed to set off a chain reaction of bizarre behavior on my work machine. I had everything from my framerates dropping to a slide-show when working in Ske...

Visiting the Emberwicks - 300dpi

300dpi version of the 'Visiting' picture.

Visiting the Emberwicks (final) - January 17

"Hallo Mr. Emberwick.You are looking very flamey today.I brought you a gift!I know you like orangesAnd you like incense.So I brought orange valewood incense!I would have brought a pie.But I think you and yours would have burned it.But thank you for keeping the path bright.Even when its cold.Even...

Visiting the Emberwicks (flats) - January 13

Finished up the flats for the eventual painted image. I wanted to capture that lonely 'grey' that overcast winter days can get. Colours get fairly de-saturated and there aren't as strong of contrasts which is weirdly challenging to get flat colours right on. Everything has to be de-satur...

Visiting the Emberwicks - January 9

The cleaned up and inked version of Cinders making her rounds giving out gifts to some of the elementals that help light the path through the Aegencald and her domain.I ended up adding in her transportation as well. A covered sleigh pulled by Sherdaylyn the Reixos mare (shifter people). Sher has mit...

Another Job - January 5.

A (slightly late) sketch for a patron from last month. The holidays pretty much wrecked my schedule, so many social calls and visits and the nightmare of retail-work just pushed all projects back.I've only ever inked pine trees once before (I think it was for the Morhost book) and they seemed to...

Visiting the Emberwicks (sketch) Dec. 24

Just a preview of the sketch I'm going to be turning into a painting. Along the very long, very isolated roadway through the Aegencalds leading towards Lathea-Halvii in the Lorrnathi lands, little lanterns sometimes house whisps of elemental fire.Cinders makes sure they are remembered, and bring...

Countdown to Bearded Cookie Thief Day.

Hard to believe Christmas is nearly here. The month has flown by, and was a blur of overwork at the job and trying to set up the lighting without blowing the house up (given my luck through the year, it was a possibility!).I'm hoping to have the sketch for the painting up soon, and the painting ...

Rim World Threats (Starships & Spacemen)

I had chance to do one last illustration for the Lucanii Drift book by Paul Kidd that will be released fairly soon from what I've heard.I was tasked with a quick commission to draw a pair of crewment looking out upon 'some kind of snow monster'. Thus I went full ham on this one and drew ...

Millers - December 6th.

I was a bit delayed getting to this sketch. Lots of 'holiday activity' and some general nonsense meant drawing was right out.This time around its a sketch of a pair of characters in a friend's D&D game. Alv (human) and Sarrah (half-dwarf) Miller. Alv is a bit more sketchy since I quickly...

December.

Hard to believe it's already December! It felt like it was just last week that I was all giddy that the leaves were turning. Now there's a light dusting of snow over everything, which I admit is charming (until I shovel it) and gives everything a 'Swiss Alps' feeling.The path for Dec...

Patreon Sketch, update stuff.

Hey all!The notificiation for the next Patreon sketch has been sent out.Just a note for the new folks at the $10 tier (and up): Every month I pick a name from the list and will do a digital sketch for that person. Its not a raffle system (though I do pick randomly). If you are on that tier, even jus...

Progress Bar (about half way there).

After a few days of almost non-stop work, I've managed to not only get the previously lost image done in flat colours, but even got the basic lighting blocked away on it. I'm technically now slightly ahead of where I was. Hopefully I'll be able to get this finished within a reasonable ti...

Update addendum.

Hey again, all.Just wanted to give an update of the plan going forward. Due to the file being bafflingly corrupted (It was near completion) I'll essentially have to go back from around the linework stage now (hopefully I still have that tucked away on the backup drive).My plan is that I will abs...

Art update.

Hey folks,Sadly the artwork I had been working on somehow got corrupted. I literally have no clue what happened, as it was on a brand new drive and nothing else has been corrupted that I've checked. It just will not open with Clip Studio anymore.To that end I will need to, quite literally, redo ...

Hello Leef (Flats) 300dpi

The 300dpi version here.

Hello Leef (Flats) - October 10th.

Hey all,I've been going full bore into artwork despite being ill. Art is strangely zen lately and keeping my mind off of being sick, so its a nice bonus.This was the painting I wanted to get finished a couple months back before all sorts of distractions hit. Better late than never, though, and i...

Amidst the Pumpkins - October 8th

I know there's a lot of stress going on for my friends in the U.S. right now, so have a tiny dragon dancing with a pumpkin!This was last month's sketch, randomly picked for Bahumot. I was given a choice of a lot of interesting character types and designs, but I went with the kobold since it ...
