I'm proud to announce that Carlos Cisco's Pistolheart Volume 2 is out! I was featured for the equipment art, and had a great deal of fun working with Carlos on this one. Go check it out on itch.io or heartofdaggers.com!

[jqshelor]

A big bug with a bigger gun, Til-drik-ik and Maggie (short for magazine) ensure their ship is well protected

[jqshelor]

Talc is a reliable rattlehand upon the rustling waves, and reliably scared of everything

[jqshelor]

A punk, a soldier, a machine killer. Xavis is no friend to the empire, or many others for that matter

[jqshelor]

The wayward son of one of the greatest technomancers anywhere in the empire, Kilo really only wants to know what really happened to his father

[jqshelor]

Lithium might be a bit insane, but the ghost in her circuitry is VERY real

[jqshelor]

Flintlock is a deserter, a soldier of fortune, and a crack shot. She's also a real jerk.

[jqshelor]

A history professor and bearer of the duplicating ring of norse myth, Draupnir, Dr. Aderhold juggles both teaching responsibilities and ones of mythic proportions

[jqshelor]

A broken man of faith like Ezekiel is a very dangerous thing, especially when his god might not be nearly as kind as he is

[jqshelor]

Good men can only take so much, and even a kind hearted doctor like Scratches-on-Wood can be pushed to the blood trade after experiencing enough hurt

[jqshelor]

The details of Jinn's death are a bit foggy, but the fungal growths all through his mechanical body have ensured that it wasn't terribly permanent

[jqshelor]

Marshall is a rich boy in over his head in the drylands, but with enough luck and good nature, anyone can make it through

[jqshelor]

A silly little fairy cowboy and his beloved beetles!

[jqshelor]

Echo Valley's jungles strangle the ruins of the old world to the earth, and feral bots stalk the land. The spire of the Motherboard pierces the sky.

Some art I made for my first ever game run via StartPlaying! I've been havig so much fun with this setting.

A full illustration commission, of a very fun daggerheart character I've had the joy of playing with, Brother Ezekiel, and his friendly bear. I loved the opportunity to do some environmental work and really push my colors.

I'm proud to announce my first work in an official publication!

I was lucky to get my work introduced to Carlos Cisco through a mutual friend. He allowed me to work on Pistolheart, an expansion for his amazing setting in the Daggerheart Core Rules, Colossus of the Drylands. As an avid tabletop enjoyer and concept artist, this was a dream commission and client.

The task was to create renditions of some of Carlos' custom firearms for the book. Now, I'm happy to be able to share the results of the project, and encourage you to check it out on itch!
