Salutations newgrounders!

I just wanted to update my old old news with something much more recent and refreshing.

I've started a daily highfive art blog where I draw up a quick sketch every day (except Saturday).

It's just made it through it's first week and I think that I might even manage to keep this pace up! currently I'll be doing League of legends champions and then i'll be moving around to other games or comics. The style will be looser but it's still super fun, I hope you guys check it out whenever you get the chance and drop me a line!

Hooray for newgrounds!

hey hey all!

so i promised to drop off the link to a download of a bigger behemoth print so you guys can print it off and hang it on your fridge! or in your locker! or staple it to your face and cut out two eye holes so people know that you love the behemoth!

so i entered Jazza's wicked cool poster contest for larry and the gnomes and i also am working on some other stuff. madness day was great! and i hope everybody had a maddening time playing all teh sweet games and watching all the rad movies.

oh man i got january! hooray! thats two years in a row i snagged that sweet month. what an awesome turnout for art this year in the calendar contest. i absolutely love the cover and i'm super honored and stoked to be a part of it.

hope all you newgrounders are keeping cool. thanks a pile for dropping by!

hello all you insane cleavers of calamity!

it has been a while since my last news post but hear me out! it appears that my red baron poster has hit the NG store! and have i got a deal for you. i will personally draw a quick sketch for EVERYONE who picks one up! my little way of saying thanks for the support! it will be probably of some armored dude or something.

i'll be keeping track of everyone on the purchasing list but just in case i miss you throw me a PM and i'll get you a sketch out as soon as i can!

i'll also be switching to a faster form of coloring (like whalestrom here) so i can get out more content to all you cool dudes and dudettes.

slay on you legions of loudness

well hello to all you awesome newgrounders!

I've been doing some commisions along with some independent game stuff as well as some casual gaming projects its been busy but awesome at the same time. i'm going to try and get me a job as a concept artist if its the last thing i do.

so it's been slow but i really gotta get back into drawing my own characters, i feel like hey are being neglected or something with all this recent fan stuff. perhaps i'll get a small comic on the go just to keep them going?

anyways rock on you jovial jesters of online justice! keep fighting the good fight!

hey all you crazy people.

been a long time since i wrote anything down here. nothing much going on. my studio shut down so i'm un-employed at the moment trying to find a purpose. been getting up to some drawing recently but it feels really directionless at the moment. anyways hopefully things pick up but i hope you are all doing awesome and i'll be posting a lot more regularly now.

later gators. go NG!

hey all you cool crazy cats!

so the sketch trade went swimmingly with dommi-fresh rocking out a sweet version of my lazarus legion dude! i'm pretty happy with my version of dommi's dangerous jim character, it was a blast to do and better happen again soon!

so i did up an entry for the halloween art contest, the story was hilarious and the entries are looking hot so be sure to get yours in the running! here's mine!

and newground news aside a very cool contest is going on that is eating up what little spare time i got going on its the 2nd annual unearthly challenge! a cool contest where teams make up 3d game environment scenes with current gen game specs. there's also a 2d contest as well! super cool stuff, last years had some awesome winners.

thanks for checking out the news dudes! *highfives*

hey all!

it's been a bit of a cluster at work but i'm back on the art-making train!
i've been getting so much reviews from so many people and that deserves a huge thanks from me!

thanks so much!

some things coming up are a super cool sketch trade with that awesome dude dommi-fresh!

hopefully i do dangerous jim justice! or else he'll come over and cut my heart out with matilda the machete D:

stay cool folks, be talking to you later.

holy cow a MASSIVE thank you to all the people that viewed my behemoth necromancer picture!

i've never gotten that many views on anything i've ever done so it's pretty crazy over here. so if you stopped by to check it and my other art out thanks so much! you all know who you are. :D

there isn't an easy way of knowing when a review has been posted so if you've written one and haven't gotten a reply from me yet fear not! for i shall be responding, no matter what the message!

so to all the high reviews and low reviews i salute you! you've all been so awesome and refueled my artsy blood into creating new things.

you guys rock.
