I wanted to make a more professional portfolio for my art and open this blog up for more commissions and talking to people. I do have an Instagram also if anyone wants to follow me there. I have more links on my link page. I will be posting my art from there on here to in the coming weeks. I appreciate anyone that follows me or gives me a like. I don’t focus on numbers but I always appreciate support! I do want to start streaming and maybe posting YouTube videos in the near future of speed paints with maybe some talking (idk tho)
If you have the money to spare consider buying me a Ko-fi!
Hey guys! OVER THE GARDEN WALL: HOLLOW TOWN, a new 5-issue BOOM! Studios comic series written by me and with fantastic interior art by Jorge Monlongo @monlongo, starts Sept. 19th! Here’s my covers for issues #1 & #2. Many thanks to Mike, Whitney, and Pat McHale!

Because that nice anon last night asked about my D&D character Ivan, here’s a huge stockpile of super old D&D art from my Twitter! This is all stuff I did from the first major arc, which wrapped up last spring.
By the time this arc was done Ivan had been mind-controlled, had his consciousness sent to a void ruled by a death-god who recognized him and taunted him mercilessly, and then met one of the scientists involved in his creation (?). D&D is a fun game about experiencing existential terror with your friends.
Shiloh (half-orc paladin) belongs to @audreydraws, Ravin (NPC scientist, spirit inhabiting a suit of armor) was guest-RPed by @maxvelocity, Anita (half-elf rogue) belongs to @alexasharpe-art, Lark (half-elf wizard, not pictured) belongs to @elemei, and DM is @jag-art.
I am a glorified office administrator who understands server hardware why am I the only person in this company who gets what social engineering is?
Total stranger on the phone who we’ve never spoken to before: I have power of attorney over the CEO of this corporation and we are a customer of yours. Please change the administrator password on the server to XXXXX
My boss, putting on white grease paint and a red wig: Oh, of course! Let’s do it quickly so that you’ll want to keep working with us since you’re going to be making business decisions!
Me: I would sell you to satan for one corn chip and I’m allergic to corn but before you do this maybe you should call someone who is actually on our contact list for our customer and see if they’ve ever heard of this stranger.
My boss, looking through a selection of shoes that honk when you walk: Oh, but she said that it was very important that none of the employees know what was happening because they’re making staffing changes.
Me: As your lawyer I recommend that you just call a single one of our contacts and see if they’ve ever heard of her name.
My boss, shoving all of our technicians into a VW beetle: You’re not my lawyer.
Me: HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW? I COULD BE! YOU SHOULD MAYBE CHECK ON THAT.
TIL everyone’s employee ID at my company is the last five of their SSN.
Boss: On the bright side, it’s only the last five
Me: YOU CAN COMMIT FRAUD WITH FOUR
Security firms that are hired to check the security of banks will often use the following tactic: They will walk up to the teller in a suit with their ID badge and a clipboard and go:
“Hello I am [name] from [security firm] we’ve been hired to verify the security of the facility I need to see your computers.”
“Erm…I’ll have to verify that with my managers.”
“Congratulations, you have just passed the security verification.” [Scribbles on clipboard] “But in all seriousness I do need to verify your security so I need to see your computers.”
“Oh okay.” AND LETS THEM IN.
“Social engineering” is a way too fancy word for what it is. I know a guy (not personally) who broke several people out of prison by essentially writing “Greetings, please release this person, signed, whoever the judge is” on a piece of paper and faxing it there. Because no one would have a fax machine in their own house I guess.
With the art tutorials that I’ve seen around the internet that focus on this particular subject I’ve found that some use curvy or spherical shaped objects.
I’ve always found these methods a bit hard to understand for me because I for one CANNOT DRAW ~~EFFORTLESS~~ NATURAL~~~ CURVY~~~ LINES LET alone DRAW a PERFECT CIRCLE!! (update: made a bit of an edit to make this sentence more family friendly)
With this tutorial I’ve peeled it down to the bare essentials.
Poses at these angles are used a lot in animations or comics.
My tutorial for poses viewed at high angles can be found here.
Tutorial for ‘How to draw background perspectives’ is here
