I was brainstorming a new Hollow Knight parody. Normally, I like to mix them with artworks. While browsing at art, I came up with this idea, instead. It was such an obvious parallel that it is brilliant. I referenced the Beatles with Hollow Knight characters.   I chose the Nailmasters and the Nailsage as stand ins for the Beatles. They are in the City of Tears crossing the road. I added notations to the lineart to remember which lines are white and which ones are black. One of the nailmasters is without his shoes.   He is almost smoking. I...

I wanted to show you one of the raw pages from my Scary Cat book. She is going with her friends to look for ghosts. It has a bit of a twist ending. This children’s book took a little longer to make. I wanted to put a ghost in the story, but I didn’t want to do a supernatural thing. Scary Cat in nature doesn’t have any supernatural elements. I also wanted to avoid Scooby cliches. So, the ghosts are Pipa and her Sister. I allude to this early in the book. All ghost related items are shaded blue. Pipa...

As gamers might remember, Greenpath is covered in acid. The White Lady is on top of the wooden door that is barely containing her massive weight.   There is simply not room enough...

This is a raw page from my newest Scary Cat book. In this one, Scary Cat Pipa has gone missing. Pipa got scared of a little bug. So, she ran away. Her friends went to look for her since she didn’t return. The book is lighthearted and cute. It has a bit of a hide and seek element. The characters are exploring a Spooky Mansion. This includes the interior and the exterior gardens. I worked hard in the background elements. I also design original looks for all the characters. The background elements were drawn with coloring pencils. The bunny Chibi...

Ranma ½ Manga Review Ranma ½ was one of the first mangas I ever read. Later on, I did try to watch the anime show. I wasn't able to watch it. It could have also been the fault of bad English duds. Anyhow, the manga was about Ranma who was training to be a martial artist. His father takes him to town one day to meet his arranged fiancé. His fiancé does not like men. Ranma also has his own issues. One day while training, he falls into a cursed lake. Whenever he is exposed to cold water, he turns into...
