Excalibur, Immortal Mage

I've had this piece 90% completed for the past month. I got sick for about a week with a nagging cough since and been lacking the energy to finish it. So finally here it is, the next piece of my alphabet series with Excalibur, an energy mage who absorbs and redirects life energy to extend her and her son Thirteen's lives .

Dubbloon Maria O'Malley

Dubbloon is one of four characters to rise to muse level for me, so with her redesign I kept her close to her past while pushing the limits of my talents. Oh and I popped her bangs, to really cement that fiery edge she has.

Clover McHart

You've finally found her, your goddess, Clover McHart. She needs your body to become fully whole, she's already devoured your fellow acolytes. Is that hesitation in your heart, fear across your mind? We'll it doesn't matter now, the process has started, and can't be stopped now.

Dani Blü

For the letter 'B' I've got my newest character Dani Blü. Veteran of the psychic wars, bouncer for the Groundhog's Garten and all around brickhouse of a warlock. Don't let her heat scare you off, as tough as she looks she's a real softie at heart.

Aarashia and Stephanie Dakart

Guess who's back... back again. This is the start of a massive 3~ish year project where each month I'll create an artwork for one of my characters for each letter of the alphabet and numbers 0-9.

To kick this project off is the legendary duo immortals Aarashia and Stephanie Dakart. I've decided to include Steph as there weren't any good letters to fit her in solo and she's a momma's girl anyway.

Verdilac

Halloween snuck up on me this year, luckily I was already neck deep in my most complicated piece yet. So while it's not spooky every one is still wearing masks so it counts in my book. Happy Halloween.

This piece is inspired by Verdilac, by The Doors; Vehicle, by The Ides of March; and Highway Star, by Deep Purple.

Heavy Wheels

If you were wondering where I've been, the answer is above. Give an artist infinite time and they'll use every second drawing a motorcycle. I'm really proud of how it turned out, but maybe my next piece shouldn't involve motorcycles.

Dubfire

This is a piece I've always wanted to draw, but past attempts never came out right. This time I'm so proud of the results.

Estheorannadu

They came to me in that void dawn between dreams and reality. I do not know if there were requesting a portrait but I could not see another purpose for their visit. If you wish to see them then all you must do is behold them all around you.
