LA based director and comic artist. From the part of Canada where they make the stereotypes. Drawing monsters and hot guys for fun and profit. (Art’s in the feed tab if you’re here for that)
This is what I looked like going into covid lockdown when suddenly all the gyms were closed and the only way to get serotonin anymore was drinking boba tea
Lost enough weight that I can fit this vest again, which is kind of nice because I handmade it when I was my most Bodybuilder Shaped back in 2019 so it has bizarre and extremely specific dimensions

When I say Danny is a weird animal what I mean is he’s like if Danhausen had a Pigeon Familiar
“Lot went outside with his de-sexing stick and waved it around most unsexily”
Please enjoy this bishounen Takashi Miike I made to illustrate how understanding what symbols we use in art represent in real life allows you to figure out how to apply those symbols in new contexts and use references more effectively 🖊️🦑
Can we petition @sevenseasentertainment.com to pick up the license for Riki Oh after they finish with Ichi the Killer, it’s fucking bonkers
Listen y’all know I love Majima and all but Kakihara does the obsessive fightsexual weirdo bit better than him and Nishitani combined
At least I know no matter how bad things get, this animal loves me and trusts that I will keep him safe
Been experimenting with updating the handwriting font I’ve been using for my comics for like 15 years 🖊️🦑
He wasn’t even asleep, he was just staring off into the middle distance
This might be the funniest line of spoken dialogue I’ve ever seen in an anime
Ayy promo photos for the Yakuza stage play later this summer are live
