Sketches & DnD Valkyries Commission
As you might be able to tell above, I've been playing around trying to figure out how I'd draw wolverine for fun. I also did studies on Big E of the WWE (hes HUGE!).The Valkyries are from a commission I just finished. Theyre NPCs in a DM's DnD game, three sister-deity figures. This is the only place I'v...
Amanda Holiday WIP
Sketch of Amanda Holiday from Destiny. Gonna ink this later in the week. Ikora and Cayde-6 also coming by next tuesday. Working on a commission now of 3 Valkyrie style characters, very lineheavy but good practice. Once I've finished I'm hoping to get the tutorials finished and posted here. I have a bit of backl...

Autumn 17 logo variants
Not too much to say about these, same typeface, but a cleaner look. I used to prefer having the logo all coloured, but considering my work is always coloured, having something monochrome that can just drop in is far handier.Regarding the two default colours here, I've always liked this pair of colours since I playe...
'Soldier' commission - step by step
A difficult but enjoyable one, this.The client wanted a logo of sorts for a community he represents, and asked for very specific uniform, gear and posing. I learned a lot about why aspects of the uniform would be the way they are, for example the rolled up sleeves and strapping down of all lose material. It will defini...
'Lunchbox' Commission Wip
Oof this one is big and complex, have to design 9 characters (based on real people) and its harder than it sounds!Had a financial dry spell in june then all of a sudden got like 5 commissions at once so I'm trying to get through them to buffer my bank account before Dublin Comic Con next month (have to print lots a...

Commission: Handsome Jack Tattoo design
Working away on this (and two other concurrent projects), because the nature of dealing with clients means sometimes youre waiting for email replies, so rather than fiddle my thumbs, I work on the next commission in the queue.

Yondu - digital print wip

Commission: Overwatch gift
This guy wanted his mates as their favourite Overwatch characters. Fun, but Overwatch characters are detail heavy, I may alter pricing for future heavily armoured characters, because its undeniably longer to do.

Commission WIP
MAN I am slow. As per usual I DRASTICALLY underestimated how long this'd take. The dude is real patient though, so its ok.THAT SAID, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna miss on having the digital print for you by tomorrow, have to delay it till monday/ tuesday. Just means two digital prints for May, as I'll do a ...
Random Commission WIP
This is a WIP snippet of one of my current commissions, for a chap in London. He wants it printed on a canvas too! Its a pretty in depth commission, but honestly, the hardest part is done now. The beginning stages, the figuring out, is the hardest. Its when I'm more likely to feel the worst about my skill level, wh...
Alexa Bliss - Patron commission
Finally finished this! Been juggling a couple commissions at once, chipping away at different ones when I get tired of another, seems to be working!This was a fun experiment, in that I still don't feel super comfortable with how i draw women, but practice is always good!I like her hair especially. Anyway, yet again...

Griffin McElroy - Soft Boy
I listen to the podcast MBMBaM pretty much constantly while working. Its over taken my old favourites like Achievement Hunter, Funhaus etc (still love those of course) as my go to entertainment. I just really appreciate that I know I'm gonna have a good time, and none of the jokes are particularly mean spirited. Pl...
