Squidling

I drew a kid! (Not a squid.) Based on a friend of mine, this pic is also an experiment where I tried to bridge the gap between sketching and final line art. If I can do something that works reasonably well without doubling my time by redrawing every ...

Hey hi folks! October is upon us and I'm doing Inktober again, because it's been so long since I've drawn with a pen. It's really interesting to see just how different I draw on paper compared to when I use a tablet, so I'm progressively trying to ex...

On Merch and My First Comic Book

A few weeks ago, when I visited Otakuthon (an anime convention) here in Montreal, I made myself a promise: next year, I would exhibit at a convention as an artist. I figured one year, give or take, would be enough time for me to improve my skills and...
