in more thrilling news, i've been working on actually having a backlog so i can have a life outside of work AND a comic. #comicwip

two panels getting closer to a person, showing a slight shift in emotion from mildly happy to disengaged

hi, made a quick zine. here’s each page #art #zine

“pervert”
the background is red and shows a vampire’s mouth being pulled open by a hand

“oh! holy

to find me such a divine beast, a thing of wonder

a ravenous creature who knows not what it means to worship, but only to obey”

a vampire (ari) close to bring chris’ neck is a framed by decals referencing the garden of eden

“i ache

to caress the smooth skin of this living carcass

to plunge my blade into that soft underbelly

to dig my fingers into the puckering wound of that decaying flesh”

against a red background is a framed image of christ’s wound, as depicted in a medical style

“the Lord guides me to this discipleship, to join the covenant of beasts when that of man rejects me as I am

this angel amongst men shall henceforth lead me by the Grace of His will”

a heavily shadowed chris is shown to be kissing ari’s palm while gazing at him (and, in turn, the viewer)

ick | xxii@icktheclown· Jun 6

okay, already managing to fight some of my stylistic choices but ah. i have dug my own grave. i mostly think chris’s face is fucking me up. there’s detail, but it also feels barren. i need more shadow.

a work in progress comic of three, unbordered panels, each zooming in closer to the person driving. two lines of text at the top read “i don’t have an answer for why i stayed with liz for so long”

been working on developing things since i haven’t had the time to chip away at personal illustration work here’s the first round sketch for over heat, a new comic i’m planning.

five panels laid out on a page, depreciating a shadowed figure climbing up a scrap heap. the first panel shows the title on the left-hand side of the frame: “over heat”

ick | xxii@icktheclown· Apr 7

yay, finished the sketch and transferred it to paper (not pictured).

a digital sketch showing a crowed room covered in wires and various other kinds of technological equipment. near the middle of the composition is a butch, hunched over a desk performing some kind of task.
