I've been trying to experiment more with a flatter art style with my digital work. I was inspired to paint these wendigo illustrations, and I am fairly pleased with how they've turned out.

Octopus
While on a ferry to Ireland a couple of months ago I was inspired by the waves and landscape to digitally paint this image, featuring this quote by Alfred Lord TennysonBelow the thunders of the upper deep,Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea,His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleepThe Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights fleeAbout his shadowy sides; … Continue reading Octopus
Adventures in the 18th Century-Flintlock 1+2
It's been a while since I've written anything on here, partially because I've been finishing my own comic 'The Trade' and partially because I haven't had as much time to read comics for a little while but as of late I've managed to squeeze a few more in. Today I'm going to talk about the … Continue reading Adventures in the 18th Century-Flintlock 1+2
