I joined a team for Queer Vampire Jam on itch.io, doing the sprites for a “vampiric angel” character named Seraphix. These are some nsfw versions of the sprites that won’t appear in the game. For time/energy reasons, I stuck with rendering her very loosely, so the final sprites retain a “sketchy” appearance ..read more

Sorry for the long absence! Between work and yet another game jam this year, I’ve been pretty busy. Back in September, I volunteered as character artist on a team for Spooktober VN Jam.

Happy New Year, all! First off, I’d like to share my last few personal works of 2022. I finally completed the main sprite for Erika, AKA the Phantom, for my Phantom of the Opera visual novel adaptation. I had a lot of fun researching late-Victorian mourning gowns for her costume. At one point, I was really into the idea of having a veil attached to her hat, but I nixed it for practical reasons. It would have obscured her facial expressions too much and been difficult to deal with in Live2D animation. This piece I knocked out relatively quickly during the time I had off for the holidays. It’s ..read more

The last couple of months have been rough for various reasons, but I finally finished this sprite for my unannounced visual novel project. Elaborate bustle gowns are simultaneously really fun and a huge challenge to paint ..read more

My print shop is now open! Head over to BigCartel to grab one of my hand-printed linocuts!

The new full-time job on top of an ongoing freelance contract has been keeping me very busy, but I’ve still been making time for my own work! Since last update, I finished a new sprite for my VN project, made headway on another one, and tried out linocut printing for the first time since high school art class. I’m planning to open an online shop soon for selling my lino prints. I will update here when it’s time to launch! A very sweet guy. The early stages of the next sprite on the list! The first few pulls from my block titled “Witch Heart ..read more

Apologies for the radio silence over here! I’ve been really distracted since I started new full-time job late in the year while also keeping up with a couple of freelance contracts. I continue, however, to still be hard at work on my personal VN project. I’ve completed one new sprite since the last update and also started another one. A well-respected, long-time opera house employeeSketching facial expressions for him ..read more
