Yeah, just hit "play" on that song from Puscifer, I had that echoing in my head the entire time I was drawing.

For Drawn for an article on Charm/Impress rolls in Rifter #61 by Palladium Books [link]

Me & Siembieda got in a discussion when I was drawing my first idea, about the article in question being not just applicable to Rifts, but to every game in the Palladium line, and he suggested this idea, a Heroes Unlimited pic.

And of course, I'm a fan of Musical Theater [link] and TVTropes [link] So you can guess what he's a reference to. Also there's a heavy influence here. Mainly because as a coworker put it, "Empowered is like a Heroes Unlimited campaign gone horribly wrong."

Before I mat & board this to sell, I really should take the time to draw in a background. Maybe some children's hospital or something that he's saving. Those sexy nurses must have come from somewhere.

As usual, don't forget about my webcomic, Peter is the Wolf [link] and my FurAffinity [link] ]]>

Went really nuts with the armor. The magic-based crafting means it doesn't need to make sense! But I also wanted to have a sense of symbolism, of the culture that made it.

The descriptions state that it's so fast by way of being so minimal, that the pilot is held on by a restraint system. It's less a 'vtol & hover' vehicle as a 'get off the ground and hope you don't snap your own spine as this thing takes off' kind of a ride.

From Josh Spinsapaugh's article Creatures of the Xiticix Hivelands in Rifter #59, a fungus-infected Xiticix.

Influenced by the video games BioShock and Left 4 Dead when I drew this. I just went all "Splicers" on this thing - wanted to make something that looked... painful to be. I knew that I wouldn't have the chance to scan these in, add digital shades or tones, etc. So I went and hand-stippled them for a shading effect. Figured I had to do something...

It's based from the worker Xit, as opposed to one of the warriors. Had to dip into the ol' archives for reference, and then just prayed that all my drawings didn't turn out crap.

I ended up selling the 11x14" original at Otakon [link] last weekend (non-matted or framed) Yeah, my rifts stuff I'm drawing outside of my sketchbooks.

From Josh Spinsapaugh's article Creatures of the Xiticix Hivelands in Rifter #59, a fungus-infected Xiticix.

Influenced by the video games BioShock and Left 4 Dead when I drew this. I just went all "Splicers" on this thing - wanted to make something that looked... painful to be. I knew that I wouldn't have the chance to scan these in, add digital shades or tones, etc. So I went and hand-stippled them for a shading effect. Figured I had to do something...

This hero's uniform, patched and resewn together after multiple years of use, is the classic uniform of the Army of the Southern Cross from Robotech: The Master's Saga.

The irrepressible, irresponsible Mary "Jacky" Faber, teenage girl pirate extraordinaire, confronts the covers to her biographies (as related by her dear friend, Amy Trevelyne). Kinda a bad sign when your life story fits into the genres of Gothic literature and Penny Dreadfuls...

If nothing else, the I played with my drawing style a bit in doing the "covergirl" version of Jacky. As she's described in the third book, when Jacky first finds the book "Bloody Jack" on sale. 'Firing off two pistols, with a pipe in her mouth'. So I went with a pin-up/Heavy Metal (yes, at several points in drawing this, Sammy Hagar was playing in my head...), maybe a touch of Dean Yeagle?

Anyhoo, the girls are justifiably traumatized by the contemptible covers [link] attached to their work.

Lord help them if they should ever run into the model... ]]>

Where fixing pipe puzzles means HUGE SAVINGS! So here's mascot Minase, dressed up as Jack from Bioshock. Oddly enough, his design was that bland in game; all you really saw were his hands, and a sweater to the wrists...

This was the image for the badges in the Dealer's Room Vendors. Imagine a convention where instead of selling stuff in 'grab bags', they made you solve puzzles for discounts. Or had your teacher's answer sheet to check your homework with...

I haven't read the books. But I have listened to them, via Graphic Audio's adaptation. [link] They're awesome, combining an Audiobook with a Drama CD, mixing traditional narration with multiple voice actors for the dialog, with sound effects, music (Logan's music is beyond awesome, and I'm pretty sure Kylar is someone doing a Michael York impersonation.) If you're a Brent Weeks fan, you owe it to yourself to get the series a listen.

Of course, most of the images are based around Vi in Shadow's Edge [link] [link] Where she has a lot of "screen time", and a lot of interaction with Uly.

The individual bits are her saying "DON'T TOUCH THE HAIR!", her personal bezerk button, "Like, Yo. Seduction Check" something she'd never say, but something someone playing her in an RPG would be saying often. "Uly & Vi is a typical anime throbbin' forehead vein, of course, you have to give her some lip service to the earring, "You're putting me with the CHILDREN?".

Soyeah, she never had her name written across the backside of her wetboy greys... but I guess I'm just too huge a fan of Ninjette [link] from Adam Warren's Empowered [link]

I guess the reason why Viridiana gets the first of my fanart treatment, would be that she's a broken bird similar to a character of mine, Rebecca Cramer from my webcomic, Peter is the Wolf [link]

Odd thing, seeing a typically EGL girl in mech armor. Oh well, Tomorrow I'll have a special bit, recycling these three images.

Tsuno gets drawn... a lot. More than Moemi, and a LOT more than Minase (the boy) makes it into pics. I think he's actually a bit harder to draw. Meomi has a nice EGL-Armor look to her now, but Tsuno changes outfit at the drop of a hat. ]]>

I was really tapped out for ideas, until fairly late in the game. Most of the artwork got finished really wayyy too close to the convention. As such, this artwork got recycled several times, but then again, that was me playing with something else... ]]>

The page I did was to the lyrics of Formelda Hyde's Torch Song "Everyone Dies". No Milo T. Pinkerton III's initial request called for one page to each of the new songs, with titles like "Lab Girl" (A pastiche of Duran Duran) "Do the Creep" (A 50s-esque Dance Craze song) and "Mallet of Metal" (the most glorious Heavy Mithril you've heard in a while. and guitars seriously reminiscent of DeathKlok). So it was 1 page, maybe two.. and I figured I should try to keep it to one, because everyone else would, and I didn't want to be the ego that drives the limited-run book over budget. Of course, I end up being the only one who does only 1 page. And also the only one who works primarily in a manga style, so it's actually pretty varied in the book.

The book itself is only available at their live shows, as a special premium that went with the launch of the album.

The big double-missiles I initially drew onto the original VTOL, but then midway through I realized I could do it another way. I should have kept the blank-bottomed redraw I did digitally, but... as you can see, there were some minor tweaks to the troop-carrier undercarriage as to make it fit as well. Rocket pods and wing missiles got a simple repeat, and a few tweaks here and there to the engines to bring them up to scratch as well.

In theory, I could even tweak the engines further with the rotate function, to depict one standing still. And the initial tracks didn't scan very well, so they were redrawn digitally with a bit of help from the circle tool, for smoothness' sake.

And yep, this is intended for Project: Cherry Blossom. So go figure out how this fits in with the concept sketches for G05 [link] , G08 [link] , G31 [link] and G34 [link]

So yeah, that's the ever effervescent Belldandy from Kosuke Fujishima's [i]Oh My Goddess![/i], and a Hound of Tindalos, created by Frank Belknap Long for HP Lovecraft.

And of course a Tindalosi would like Belldandy, being a Norn, she's a goddess of time (specifically, she's the goddess of the present.) and that's where they dig, man. It's all about them angles, even if she is all "curvy"!
