May 2026 Sketchbook

Posted on by

The past month was a slurry blur as I roamed through May experimenting with new tools and finessing ongoing illustrations.

a digital illustration of three anthropomorphic animal characters wearing golden bikinis having fun at the beach: a lithe female jackal wearing a gold eye patch, gold prosthetic leg, and standing with a cane also of gold, a tall female maned wolf wearing round glasses with gold frames, and a pink towel, and small male raccoon, dancing in front wearing his own bikini.

I drew my sexiest OC for Golden Week. I even included the Captain Rhodes and Dr. Delgado to hang out with Cole behind him too!

March 2026 Sketchbook

Monochrome green pixel animation of an anthropomorphic male raccoon standing on a tree branch with his coat blowing in the wind to confront a figure across the treetops behind the trunk, ready to fire his bow. The raccoon calls out to the figure, "Show yourself coward!"

It’s been a packed month for me. I’m jumping around working on game dev, a regular job, commissions and fumbling with writing. Often, I feel overwhelmed, but I’m sure it’s just me finally aging to the ripe age of 34. Even with all this, March looks to be the start of the larger year of art creation for me.

Blind Spot Illustration Process

Posted on by

Enemies patrol along a certain route, scanning the area for anything unusual or out of place. Many are well armed, well numbered, and physically difficult to overcome for a single, smaller intruder.

Digital illustration of a small anthropomorphic raccoon wearing a long blue coat and brown pants, tiptoeing under the legs of large, brown maned anthropomorphic female lion in revealing red plate armor that barely covers her large chest patrolling near a brick wall, holding a large spear and shield. The lion seems oblivious to the raccoon underneath her carefully saying under the shadow of her large breasts. A small game UI style message reads: "Undetected"

Lucky for Cole, some guards have certain…blind spots.

My Time at Chicago Indie Games Showcase 2025

Posted on by

Over the weekend, I went to the Chicago Indie Game Showcase and played a fine collection of upcoming games developed in Chicago, Illinois!

Room of guests at the Chicago Indie Game Showcase at Harpin Arts in Logan Square in Chicago, Illinois.

The show is run by Indie City Games, a local Chicago scene of indie game developers. I applied for a table in the summer to show off a playable build of Blackmask, but it’s for the best as there were killer games out on the floor that Saturday!

Dragon Knight Sinai Sprite Process

Posted on by

In the past four weeks, I created this large fighting game sprite commission! Despite it’s length, the turnaround was faster than my previous commissions taking me more than a month on an off with streams on my Twitch Channel. I’ll go through the process creating it all from the start.

pixel animation of an yellow and brown striped anthropomorphic male dragon with brown spots in his wings and a scorpion-like stinger at the end of his tail. He wears full steel armor, a green scarf, an indigo rope belt at his waist, and yellow thorns wrapped around the horns of his helmet. The dragon stands at the ready with his long spear in hand.

What I’ve Been Up To Since Spring

Halfway through the year, I’m dropping off an update of life stuff I’ve been up to and talk about future plans for art projects.

I’ve been in deep focus on working on my big personal projects, minimizing convention activity, and improving my body in an effort to make this year more fulfilling.
