I’m talking about the AMDAFAQ! It can be accessed through the right-upper-menu-bar, or though the side-bar to, well, the side, or by clicking AMDAFAQ. If you find any questions that are obviously missing, or you want me to add some new ones let me know!

Drizzt Do’urden

drizzt-pencil-2-ink.jpg I’ve noticed that over on the hairy side of this site Maki has turned into quite the fecund blogger, giving updates on what we’ve been up to as well as posting sketches and other little chatchkies. I’m a little jealous because I cannot post the things I draw on a daily or even weekly basis for obvious [read: legal] reasons, however I assure you I have some fun stuff cooking! For example; recently I did a cover for Forgotten Realms: Starless Night featuring the character Drizzt Do’urden, and I have some random sketches on the way which I will post when I get the time. For now I leave you with a little Pencil-to-ink preview of this most recent cover (pencils by yours truly and Inks by Mostafa Moussa). I will post it in it’s entirety when I am able. (*Edit: this image is now available in the Covers Gallery and the thumbnail used to create it is in the Sketches Gallery)

Dungeons and Dragons

A few months ago I did some covers with Devil’s Due Publishing for the book The Worlds of Dungeons and Dragons. These covers are for issues #3 and #4. My usual inker Mostafa Moussa was not on inking duties for these unfortunately so I don’t really know how they turned out. I enjoy doing pieces with extreme light sources like these. You really get to explore the surfaces and work in those shadows, turning the white of the page into the light of the page instead of waiting for a colorist to do it for you :)

It’s Back!

And by it, I mean me. and by back I mean on a totally new page. I slowly stopped updating my previous blog about a year ago in order to exercise my right to live like it’s 1993, which, I’m pretty sure, is protected under the 8th amendment. But I have some fun new stuff going on so I thought it was time to do some more posting. So enjoy, cuz it’s back.
