a scratchboard drawing featuring Genichiro Ashina from Sekiro, standing in a field of silvergrass that occupies the lower part of the illustration. His arms are reaching out to the skies as he is being struck by lightning. In the background, looming over the scene, stands Ashina castle.
"Ashina will rise once more... The Dragon's blood running through her veins..."⚡

Very saddened to hear of the passing of Vania Zouravliov in 2016.
He was a ridiculously talented and unique artist and it was an absolute privilege working with him on the Edgar Alan Poe print series, which will remain, forever, incomplete.
RIP Vania Zouravliov.
Dioscoria calls upon you. With ZineQuest 2025 on the horizon, we’re preparing something special for February 6: Forever Hold Your Peace, a 64-page, full-color zine featuring five brand-new adventures for The Hidden Isle.

Thinking even more about columns lately
the offering
A corpse sits in an alcove next to an ancient highway.
A glowing sword in the middle of a junkyard.
A rest stop with a huge neon sign reading "Gas" stands atop a cliff bathed in fiery light of uncertain origin.
A small home, perhaps a trailer, sits on the horizon, a ghost of an overpass hanging above it. The sky is heavily overcast.
Some of you may not have seen my weird little postcards
a sampling of windy paintings
Galactus and Silver Surfer.

Had the pleasure to be a part of this wonderful Vampire Hunter D charity zine to raise money for Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. Preorders open until 23rd Nov! Please check out all the amazing artists & writers & support for a really good cause 🖤
Repainted this old piece and I like it so much more! Inspired by the incredible ballerina Júlia Del Bianco
Thank you!!

Digging in my phone to start here
two wolves inside of me. one of them is sure that every fantasy manga would be improved by never again mentioning loot or spell slots. the other thinks that Tower Dungeon is perfect.
currently reading Tower Dungeon (from Nihei of Blame!) and man he really knows what's beautiful and what's weird. traditional RPG elements in manga usually take me out of a story hard, but i'll allow it, just this once.
