Lapeo Fakemon Region: Part 2

Oops, well. I did say my next post wasn’t going to be about dinosaurs, but after my last fakemon post I got another resurgence of inspo, and ended up making a whole bunch more. Which means now I gotta talk about them. I also made dex entries for all the previous mons in the last… …

Lapeo Fakemon Region: Early Stages

Okay, well Pokemon has always been a part of me, and even as a kid I was scribbling fake Pokemon (“Fakemon”) till my heart’s content. This is something even now I return to every once and a while, because it’s just a fun little exercise–coming up with designs, studying the “style” of Pokemon to mimic… …

Hourly Comics Day 2022

February 1st is Hourly Comics Day, where lots of artists draw cute little comics detailing their whole day in hour segments. I’ve always somewhat participated in this day, but never finished the whole thing–until this year!! Here’s my first completed Hourly Comic Day.

Tabletop Ventures

In 2018 I finally was introduced to tabletop RPGs, something that had piqued my interest around the time it was pretty much piquing everyone’s interest who had not been into it prior. Before this, I had absolutely 0 experience with it. It was not even a thing remotely around me in my life–I can’t recall… …

Dromia, Part 2

Click here for part one. Now that we’ve been introduced to the world of Dromia and some of its creatures, it’s time we take a look at the Dromia themselves. This was the first concept I made for the Dromia. Since drawing them more, much has changed, but this still gets across most of the… …

Dromia, Part 1

A small writing/worldbuilding project I undertook in late 2019-2020 was Dromia, which eventually evolved into its own little narrative. Dromia initially started as a fun experiment, but also maybe a work of spite towards the Pixar film The Good Dinosaur. It follows the same premise, which countless others have delved into and continue to: what… …

A Loveletter to the Prehistoric

I guess it’s not too surprising to hear I like dinosaurs. It says it right there on the side, and in plenty of my works and illustrations you can find them. Not just dinosaurs, too, but all manner of extinct creatures. I don’t think you really need an explanation on why you like dinosaurs, because… …

Lab Partners

Lab Partners started as a text role-play with my partner. This one doesn’t have much of a plot, and is more about the Fun Antics a couple of mad scientists get up to. The general premise is there was a lab where multiple scientists were brought in (in some cases, to recreate magic or to… …

Sin Pantheon

So, one thing I do often with my partner is text role-play. It’s what we usually do to wind down and have fun, but we also can use it to plan out stories–or just get the hang of certain characters. We have a few go-to roleplays that we rerun often, and they usually get art… …
