ICE is what happens when little boys grow up only playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and don't balance it out with silly little games like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. Not a drop of whimsy to be found in these broken men.

Last of my Kala Mandala adventurer team illustrations.
Welcoming 2026 with the tenacity displayed by this party!

Southeast Asian Fantasy: A group of adventurers posing and looking at the camera.
From the back, a monkey-folk (gibbon), looking like a monk, holding a khakkhara with his other hand making a mudra.
In front, a girl, holding a keris, as if casting a spell.
Beside her, a binturong-folk, wielding a machete.
A pig-folk holding two short axes in both hands stands in front them.
A woman with elaborate headwear, holds a glaive, polearm leads the pack.

Writer hack: If you stand completely still when someone asks "how's that book you're writing coming along?" they can still see you, but they'll be so put off, they'll leave you alone.

Tell your friends you love them. This isn't meant to be ominous. Everything's good (knocks on wood) but it just feels nice, bro. Telling the boys I love them, I'm glad they're my friends, in my life... then of course we go back to roasting each other, but the people you care about should know.

Had a good start to the day. Finally got back to my WIP and put some words on the page. But then the rest of the day kind of just went to crap. Difficult to remain positive which is what I aim to be. But tomorrow is a new day. So huzzah!

More art examples:

A femme knight in silvery armor, filigreed with feather designs. She has pale skin and long auburn hair, tied in a ponytail and held back with an ivory and gold circlet. She has a white cloak and tabard, with blue accents. The cloak has a blue phoenix emblazoned on it. She wields an adamantine shield with the sigil of Bahamut engraved on it. She wields a longsword with a golden dragon hilt, and a rapier with a silver wing hilt. Also among her inventory is a parchment labeled "Shit List" with some names on it, some crossed off.

Illustration of a Karrakin Trade Barony royal scion and their Facsimile body double.

A scene from in the VIP pit of a Lancer mech duel in the Grand Arena of Throne Karrakis. Colorful pennants sway in the breeze high above the stadium. Huge shades that look like translucent petals shade the spectators, seated in the sandy white gallery stands. The architecture flows and curves rather than being rectilinear or purely circular. Pointed archways from the main arcade level. Ornate fluorescent light chandeliers light up the shaded stands. On the Field, a massive black Lancer frame lunges forward with a black broadsword, boosted forward with back-mounted rockets. A red ponytail flows from its helm. Parrying the blow in a shower of sparks is a sage green Lancer frame with a curved scimitar-like sword. It pirouettes on digitigrade legs, its blue cape tails swirling in the arena dust. It is adorned with golden filigree. In the pit, two factions face off, each representing their frame in demeanor and attire. On the left, matched with the black knight mecha, a cadre of nobles (perhaps from the House of Stone), all in black and red and metal and furs, stand haughtily. The main one raises her whiskey glass in smug superiority. She has dark skin and an undercut hairstyle of red hair. Next to her is an older man, bald and bearded, with dark skin and a grumpy expression. On the right, representing perhaps the House of Glass, a rakish young noble lifts his wine glass in mocking salute. He has twin swords on his belt and an orange cape. Next to him is a beautiful noblewoman in a dress covered in rose-like flowers. a chain veil covers her face. Behind them, vidscreens show alternate angles of the mech duel, including shots from the cockpits of each frame, showing the determination and effort of each Lancer that pilots them.

An Everest-pattern Lancer frame, destroyed in battle, kneeling in a snowy, ashy battlefield in the middle of a ruined city under an overcast sky. The pilot huddles near a portable heater nestled between the frame's legs.

Too many of us are asking the wrong question about the Trump-Epstein saga. We keep asking if there is a smoking gun. Instead, we should be asking why so many people in power have done nothing about where smoke has been pouring from for years.

A picture of two Eldar corsairs. The front one is a grey-skinned Eldar woman with long dark brown hair styled in a side cut, covered in long scars and missing her left eye, which is covered by a white leather eyepatch. She is wearing a very cropped top jacket, and underbust corset and thigh high boots all made of a similar material, over a black synthetic bodysuit separated into a top and tights. This is supplemented by a few pieces of white Eldar armor decorated with concentric circles drawn out in orange paint. She is wearing one glove on her right hand while the other is tucked into her belt, which has a light blue spirit stone on the buckle. She is wearing a dark blue camo fringed sash on her waist, holding a Human shotgun and an Eldar power sword shaped like a military saber.
The other Eldar is a wraithguard. His smooth white exterior is marred by circular scratches where barnacles used to be, with plenty more remaining. Some of the globular shapes characteristic of Eldar armor bear blunt blackened spikes reminiscent of a sea mine's detonator prongs. His head is black with a large white skull painted on. A similar sash to his counterpart is tied around his arm, while a larger piece of the same fabric hangs as a loincloth under layers of ropes and netting girding his waist, including a few fish hooks and a large spirit stone hanging like a glass float.
His fists bear the Eldari for KEEL and HAUL respectively while his chest has brass letters spelling Hubby; the first Eldar's sash reads "I eat ass" in gold thread.
