MantiCornOnTheCob

Adam felt it was important that I show off his guild sigil. This is the MantiCornOnTheCob. They roam the cornfields of Midwestern  Earth in the Dagorgrind Realm. 

Adam claims to have tamed them before, but I think he is full of it.

Dagorgrind Issue #1

Adam's terms of friendship tend to be a tad extreme.

Vegeta

I did a Vegeta drawing. I'm practicing using a tablet.

Bard

These are character sketches for the cartoon Bard that I’m currently working on.

String is the main character. The Lord of Voice is based on Cedric Bixler-Zavala and the final picture is Mukai Shutoku (my favorite musician) from Number Girl and Zazen Boys.

Judge's Armor and L sketches

Dagorgrind (Original Character Sketches)

The original character sketches of the Dagorgrind, Live Action Roleplaying, Crew.

Snow Excuses

My school tried to alarm us of a snow day and instead informed us of a violent intruder alarm.

It is going to be in the Columbia Chronicle, Columbia College Chicago's newspaper, in the Free Ice Cream section.

Columbia's Zine Fest

Today I attended Columbia’s Zine Fest in Chicago. I saw a lot of crazy stuff and learn a few things. I even got to make some book covers and stamps.

Check them out!

LARPing (drafts)

I'm working on some comic strip for the school newspaper. These are a few of the thumbnails.

Snow Day - More Panels (Rough Draft)

The 3rd and 4th Panels of my Snow Day Comic

Snow Day (Rough Draft)

These are the first couple of panels I’m working on for a snow day comic strip. I plan on submitting it to the school newspaper this week.

Kamehameha!

I got bored and decided to do a quick color version of the comic. I can't not color the Kamehameha Wave, right?

Jerahmy and Padawan

Here's the comic I made for my friend's brother Jerahmy with his dog Padawan. Frieza (from Dragon Ball Z) is an awesome character to draw. Sephiroth (from Final Fantasy VII) and Shishio (from Rurouni Kenshin) also turned out pretty well. 

Trix Sketches

This is the concept art that is going into the Trix Bunny comic strip. The last page with the little girl was cut out of the strip. I couldn't decide on how she should look and I was trying to fit too many characters to one page.

Snow Excuses

So I'm currently working on a comic strip to submit to my school's newspaper about the Trix bunny rabbit. 

I'm also doing a commissioned drawing for my friend's brother, Jerhamy, where him and his dog Padawan kill Frieza, Sephiroth, and Shishio with a Kamehameha Fire Breath attack.

I finished the second one, but the Trix comic strip is still in progress. 

Sadly, I didn't have access to a scanner because of the snow in Chicago.

Tomorrow.

LARP

I took a television writing class and a cartooning class at the same time last year. I wrote about a group of kids who LARP (Live Action Role Playing) in their free time. The story show was suppose to be live action, but I decided it was funnier as a cartoon. Thus I did my final comic for Cartooning about these very kids. I would love to do a series with these guys. 

Middle School

My brother was complaining about going into 8th grade. He said every school year was the same as the last and didn't see the point. I wanted to show him what 8th grade would be like in comparison to 7th. I wanted him to know just how different it was going to be.

Dungeon and Denchers

This is roughly my first experience of Dungeons and Dragons at my friend Jimmy's house. It is still a favorite memory of mine because it was just too weird. Please don't get mad at me Jimmy, I love you.

8 Panel

I did this for a Cartooning class last year. I tried to play with movement lines becoming physical objects, like you would see in classic Cartoons. Still funny to me.

Daily

These are my first comic strips, in my style. They were a collection of daily comics I did for a class. I kind of hope to start this up again. I enjoy drawing comics with no point to them.
