Love being involved in this project in a different way than usual, consulting on production and crowdfunding rather than my usual writing duties. Check it out: www.kickstarter.com/projects/nei...

Hey, so a project has, once again, been delayed indefinitely, so I'm looking for work for mid October/November. If you see this, please give a share.

Lane! Draws! Comics! @lanedraws.bsky.social · 9d

Heeeeeeey, so my October schedule got kind of thrown in the trash, so if you need wild, energetic art that you won't find anywhere else for your next project, take a look at my portfolio! I'm quick, dependant, and, Id like to think I do one hell of a job!

Griff Gristle has had his diving helmet removed by spectral skeletons bursting out under the ground beneath his feet. He is fighting them off of him with Gungir, his spear, as he is frantically trying to hold his breath.

My schedule for next month is pretty barren, so, if you need wild art that you won't find anywhere else on your next project, consider hiring me? Covers, sequentials, character design, album covers, I do it all!

I also offer commissions if you don't have a project
