Digital Dragons, Book Three


Digital Dragons
 proceeds along! Bobbi continues to build up her resources, acquiring stronger armors and equipment in rapid succession, just in time to meet another powerful enemy! It's clear the world isn't going to wait for her to keep "getting prepared" before she goes on her Quest. After this latest harrowing encounter, it's time to get a move on!

I really hadn't expected to pop this out so soon after the last one, and I can tell the drag is really hitting me now, so it's time to pull back and let this one recharge a bit. Thanks for reading thus far!

Digital Dragons, Book Two


Digital Dragons
continues with the further adventures of Bobbi, Miner And Crafter Extraordinaire(ish)! As she slowly builds up her resources, she encounters a potential new ally, runs afoul of a powerful foe, and takes her first step into another dimension! Things are looking rather hectic, but hey, she's got nothing if not time on her side, conveniently divided into twenty-minute chunks at that!

Made with modded Minecraft and Comic Life 3. I didn't think I'd get another book out right away, but the muse stuck around for a while longer this time! After this, though, I'm taking a break before I give my wrists, and my brain, carpal tunnel.

Digital Dragons, Book One

Digital Dragons is a comic book project created with Minecraft (including several mods) and Comic Life 3. Born from a half-joke/half-desperation move to break me out of another prolonged bout of writer's block, as well as conveniently justify continuing my Minecraft addiction, the comic tells of the first few days of "Sharkerbob" seemingly awakening into his Minecraft avatar, whereupon he becomes stuck in the world of the game! Yes, it's just about the most cliché premise you could think of for a Minecraft "fan fic", but it fits the conceit of the game well enough, and made for an easy jumping off point for wacky early-game shenanigans. As improvised dialogue and characters, I also did not set up anything about the environment ahead of time (aside from one plot-relevant detail), so Sharkerbob's responses are real-time reactions to my own exploration of the area, making for some great organic writing.

This was a really fun project, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed making it!

The comic has been saved as a PDF format, which you can download here:

Strange Shore

Painted this on a lunch break. Not entirely sure what effect I was going for here. This was done in Procreate, which has a lot of interesting "special effects" brushes, a few of the Elemental set you can see here. They are fun looking brushes, but I honestly find I don't really have much use for them normally, so I decided to see what I could get out of them.

Another concept sketch for a random character. I swear, I had a really hilarious name for this girl, but I wasn't able to write it down, and forgot it by the time I was able to draw her! Oh well. Also, I decided at the last minute to give her one of the Scythes, because why not? Makes more sense for a scarecrow than most of my other character ideas!

Felt like doing something overtly toony. While I tend to gravitate towards more "realistic proportions" style of toon character, I'm wondering if I should really try branching into wackier designs.
