I can finally share a really cool project I got to work on a little while ago!

I was commissioned to do the cover art for a big chiptune collab called FAMATTACK, in which 12 different musicians each wrote sections of a song (using Famitracker, a program for composing accurate NES music) and then passed it on to the next person, and fit it all into one big, cohesive medley that represented everyone's unique styles. The final product is really impressive and I'm glad I got to be a part of it!

You can check out the song and the artists involved here! Definitely give it a look!

Recent D&D commission of a wood-elf ranger and her wolf companion. I've never really drawn a wolf properly before, but I HAVE drawn plenty of elves, haha... (click the image for not-terrible quality lol)

"Warmup" sketch from a recent stream! It kinda got out of hand, since I was having so much fun playing with some new brushes and just kept adding to it. Really proud of this piece!

Double sketch commission for one of my Twitter friends and their gf! This was technically part of the BLM fundraiser drive too, but the donation came in after the stream ended, so I drew these the next day.

Also did I mention y'all were able to raise a total of $200 in the few hours I streamed? That's wild! Thank you for making that happen!

wow I FINALLY passed 1k followers on tumblr dot com. it only took literally 8 years

Two more sketch commissions from my BLM fundraiser stream the other day! Thanks again to the kind folks who donated for these!

guess who finally watched the 2012 lorax movie and was inspired to create a work of art on this cold dark night in the dying weeks of 2019

it’s been about 6 months since I posted this. tonight, roughly 18k notes in, I finally opened tumblr on desktop (gasp!) to look through all the tags, and uhh...

...y'all do know this was just a joke, right?

Twitch is the world's leading video platform and community for gamers.

Things are crazy right now, and I want to do more to help out. I'll be doing in-stream fanart commissions to raise funds for @bailproject tonight, starting at 6pm EST!

Instructions for how to donate and request a drawing are here, please read first: https://tiltify.com/...

Some friends are working on a sweet romhack project called BS Super Mario World, and I got to do a bit of promo art for it! Tried to imitate the style of the official art from the 90's, it was really fun!

The demo just went live, go check it out here! https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=101789

It also features a FANTASTIC soundtrack with a blend of remixes and original tracks, which you can find a sampling of here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnZ21HzS2-4eeOB1phSqvc3TpsxziCMD2

Weapon designs I did for the Zelda-themed TTRPG project, "It's Dangerous To Go Alone"! #DTGArpg

They're supposed to be a legendary greatsword and bow, aligned with the goddesses of Power (Din) and Courage (Farore) respectively. It was a fun  challenge to work that into their designs!

(also yes i know there ought to be a third weapon for Nayru, Goddess of Wisdom, but somebody else was in charge of drawing that one so it’s not here)

Little sketch I did the other day of an OC I haven't drawn in a while - a little cyclops girl named Stelma! I made some minor tweaks to her design and I'll probably make more later, but this was a fun little change of pace.

In case you missed it, I've been streaming on Twitch a lot lately! Usually I just play games for a couple hours and then work on art stuff for the rest of the night. Currently I'm playing through Majora's Mask 3D - here's a bit of art I did to fill the space in my stream layout!

(Also, I haven't been posting the start times in advance recently - just making a post on Twitter right when i'm going online instead, to give me some flexibility - but if it helps, the streams are usually in the evenings. Tonight (May 5, 2020) my stream will probably start between 6-7pm EST if you wanna swing by!)
