I've gotten around to inking a lot of the pages I've recently pencilled. Most of these are pages from 'NightCraft' but there's also a page from Hellhound Media's 'Dawn After Dark' as well as Roger Crooks' book of fables.

This is a new piece I just completed, the double-page spread that opens the fifth issue of Night Craft!
This is a story I came up with over the summer. It ran in the sixth issue of my promotional comic series, "Night Craft Mini". Thought I'd share it with you guys, and I hope you like it. It does take place in the post-apocalyptic future, they keep telling me not to write those kinds of stories, but I keep coming back to them...
Some more of my horror-themed Inktober drawings. I'm drawing these on 8.5 by 11 inch yardstick with Prismacolor pens. I'm using Affinity Photo for the color, with a little bit of Affinity Designer here and there.
Pencils I just completed for a one-page story by Roger Crooks, author of The Karentha Chronicles comic book series. I provided most of the art for the first three Karentha issues and you can buy them here!
This is the first of my drawings for Halloween/Inktober, I'm going to try and do them in ink and color this year. I'll post every five or so drawings as they are done. Hope you enjoy them! And yes, last year's story will be finished, hopefully sooner than later, and you'll be able to read it hear.
This issue's getting closer to completion... These are the inks to another page. CAn't wait to share this one with you guys!
I'm continuing my quest to find a time and cost-effective way to bring color to the 'Night Craft' series. I'm hoping to find a technique that really achieves the look I have in mind for the comics. I think I'm getting closer with this drawing, basically just a colored sketchbook drawing. I want the line work to convey a lot of the shading and texture, just use color to back that up and set the atmosphere of the piece. I'm also a big fan of strong highlights, so that's coming through better with color. And yes, I am a dinosaur, so using a noise filter helps me achieve that grainy, laserdisc image quality that I hope will work nicely for the stories.
I just finished another page to the follow-up story to "Kiss Me Deadly". This one is being published by Hellhound Media. See more of their books at their website!
Here's a story I found in a writing notebook from about thirteen years ago. I guess it was just time to finally illustrate it. There's probably some Martian Chronicles influence, though mine probably lacks all of the depth of Bradbury's classic. Hopefully it's a fun little story one can read in a couple of minutes.
It's been added to my short comics section with its own page here. Pen & Ink on Bristol board with letters and tiny black dots added by computer. Fonts by Blambot. Really short stories are the hardest thing for me to come up with. I found this story in an old writing notebook from a few years back and decided, what the heck, I'll illustrate this one. I've got two more pages to do, add some inks and maybe some tones. And words too! Then it'll be done and I'll have it uploaded to the site!
These are the pencils to a currently untitled Night Craft short story. I hope to have this one finished soon and I'll be giving it away at conventions as well as posting it on this site. It's not quite the story you would expect given its post-apocalyptic setting, but should still be enjoyable...
The fifth issue of Night Craft is coming, probably sooner rather than later. Here are a couple of recent pages and what may become the cover image. Or maybe not, I'm tossing about a lot of ideas for the cover.
Short comics are the hardest for me, but I managed to tell this story in one page! Hope you guys enjoy it, it's also added to the collection of short comics here!
