A Polycule of Mars pages 16-17 pencils

Oh no! A complication in the plot!

AMA — Have You Always Drawn Lewds?

Q: What got you started with drawing, and were you set on lewd stuff early on?

A: I’ve been doodling and playing with art as long as I can remember. I remember drawing a bad Space Man Spiff rippoff on lined paper as a child. I always liked telling stories and I was pretty good at art. But...

A Polycule of Mars pages 14-15

Tell me more about your relationships. Interesting. Interesting... Wait, it's hard to talk with your mouth full? Interesting. Interesting...

A Polycule of Mars 14-15 inks

Aw yeah. It's all coming together! Next to the colors!

A Polycule of Mars pages 14 and 15 pencils

Another two pages! I'm trying something where I'm thinking about lighting much much earlier in the process; establishing my basic lighting scheme in the pencil stage. I think this is/will help me focus a panel and even a page. Regardless, I think they look pretty dang good!

Alice Sketch 03-07-2023

"Warm up" sketch for the day!

Trigun Stampede

Have you been watching Trigun Stampede on Hulu? I've been enjoying it. They've made a bunch of changes from the original anime, most of which I think are pretty good changes. Really focused the story more on Vash and his brother Knives, which really came pretty late in the original show (as I rem...

March 2023 Monthly Pinup Suggestion Thread

Every month I do a full color illustration based on suggestions from you, the Patrons! I'll take the most inspiring suggestions and sketch up ideas to submit to the Lifeguard Tier Patron who then get to vote for their favorites. Whichever sketch gets the most votes from that poll gets turned into...

Aaren Color Practice

I can really let the rendering get away from me sometimes. One of these renders went WAY faster (granted, I had done it several times by that point, but still). It's often true that less is more, but it's hard to hold myself to that sometimes.

So which version do you like better? The elabor...

A Polycule of Mars pages 12 and 13

Cheong's really getting into this whole Martian probe thing...

Alien Player Characters

I'm running an Alien RPG game with some friends, so of course I had to draw all the PCs. These took me... maybe 45 minutes a piece? Really quite pleased with them.

Feb Pinup - XXXtremely Casual Fridays Oral Report

There were so many great suggestions this month, and I really liked far too many of them! But in the end, the Lifeguards cast their votes and so we return to work...

...at the best office environment. Boss Lady really knows how to get the best out of her team.

February Pinup Winner!

The votes were cast and in the end the next installment of XXXtrememly Casual Fridays was the victor for this month's pinup! The finished image will be posted tomorrow!

This is always hard on me, because I like so many of these ideas. But if I drew them all, I'd never have time for comics!<...

A Polycule of Mars 12-13 inks

These two pages were supposed to be finished earlier this week, unfortunately I fell ill for a couple of days. I'm better now, and so art progress continues!

A Polycule of Mars 12-13 pencils

What's a little probing between friends, eh?

Glory Bowl pages 18-22

Five more pages of Glory Bowl! Boss lady Yuki and head chef Keskileene blow off some steam. And Runa finds where the new girl Rosaline has been all this time...

Unpacking Brinks

Another colored Brinks Sketch! I'm really quite pleased with this one. Really tried paying attention to my color tones on this one and not over do it with the contrast.

Brinks Shoulder Flex

I liked those sketches of Brinks as much as you all did, so I had to color at least one of them. I'll be truthful with you all, I feel I struggle with rendering darker skin, so that's something I'm going to practice this month. Gotta do the thing to git gud, and I want to be able to do this lady ...

February Pinup Suggestion Thread

New month! A new pinup awaits! Every month in addition to the comics and all the other art, I do an exclusive pinup based on YOUR suggestions!

The most inspiring suggestions get sketched up and submitted to the Lifeguard Tier patrons who vote for their favorite. The winner gets turned into ...

Brinks Sketches 02-02-2023

Had an itch to sketch the commander. Yeah. That's good stuff.

Glory Bowl pages 18-22 pencils

Big chunk of Glory Bowl in progress! Getting to some spicy stuff with the staff, now!

January 2023 Pinup - Extremely Casual Fridays

There were so many great suggestions for this month's pinup, and I'm actually really pleased that the Lifeguard Patrons chose this one to be the winner! It's so damn fun in that cheeky kind of way.

A Polycule of Mars pages 10-11

When aliens meet you for the first time, there's bound to be a little friendly probing involved. I don't make the rules.

Alice Warm Up

Trying to do more warmup drawings. Alice is always fun to draw! At some point I'll circle back to the comic I have in mind for her.

A Polycule of Mars 10-11inks

I'm really quite pleased with how these pages are progressing. Going to be absolute fire in the end. They're also going to set up our first truly hot scene in this story. I know! Took 12 pages of set up!

A Polycule of Mars pages 10-11 pencils

A reunion... of sorts. Those med pods got a lot more complicated than I initially expected them to.

Drella Turn Around NSFW

Because what character turn around is complete without a nude variant?

Drella Turn Around

Drella is one of the characters I've been contracted with designing for an upcoming sci-fi body-swap comic.  She is as vicious as she is beautiful.

AMA — “Do You Have A Day Job?”

Q: “Have you reached a level of success that you can support yourself? Or do you have a side gig, like home inspector or Olive Garden host to get you by?”

I’ve been drawing comics online for almost twenty years now. I have technically never had a side gig during that time…but only t...
