Had to run to your page because I felt like I hadn’t seen your work in years. I guess I just kept missing you. Glad to see that you’re still drawing. :)

I promise I am I’m just quieter on social media these days lol, if anyone ever wants to check in these days it’s easiest on Discord

I got curious about the hot pocket story. I wish I didn’t get curious about the hot pocket story. Regerts were made.

Idk who wrote the Hot Pocket story but I hope they didn’t get anything for Christmas this year

I remember you posting about your book with hints and tips on how to illustrate manga, but your style really reminds me of Maus by Art Spiegelman. Also, keep up the good work. Seeing a more sinister Gaster is an interesting take on the character.

Thank you so much!

While I want to make clear that I’m not *actually* comparing my fanfic about crying skeletons to the Pulitzer-Prize winning holocaust account… I understand what you mean. Both Spiegelman’s work and what I’m doing here use a simplified style with lots of black. 

[Maus by Spiegelman]

But Maus’ style is by no means unique. Spot blacks and hatching are signature aspects of the Underground Comix movement (of which Spiegelman was a veteran). I find it so funny when people tag my style as “unique” when it’s really not! 

I wouldn’t cite Spiegelman as one of my primary influences, either. In my formative years I was much more influenced by Vasquez’s JTHM

[JTHM by Vasquez]

This is where I really fell in love with the spot blacks and scratchy inks that have never really left my style. Since then, though I’ve been influenced by a ton of people mostly in Indie and Web circles. In the Indie world there are so many people doing phenomenal work in B&W:

[Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O’Malley]

[Order of Tales by Evan Dahm]

Just to name a few off the top of my head. There’s so much out there though!!!

You see Jessica in her underwear if, as Mike, you light the fire right away when arriving to the cabin. Not sure if being witty or not scaring her into water effects that.

Gotcha, thank you! I love how I'm still learning new stuff every day 👍

Everyone seemed to send their opinion on Pacific Rim to you so I will too. I liked it, but I felt like it would have made a better tv series. (Be it short or long.) You'd get to know all the characters better, see more battles, and all that good stuff. (Or you could just read the comics I guess..) I know animation like that isn't cheap, but I think it would have been worth the money.

I would kill for a Pacific Rim TV show tbh

I want a Pokémon named Love Buttons. I want them all to be muscular men, with hearts for nipples. And they would be a fairy type.

I know you've gotten this a dozen times, but links to your Pokemon mash up drawings? I'm wanting to show my boyfriend who loves Pokemon.

They're all right here 8>
