Step By Step of a Kali Saga Page

Here’s some pics of an older page, as I drew them back in 2013. I don’t think I ever shared them. I sometime miss doing pages on paper with ink. That’s why I’m doing just that on the new bonus story. “The Lake Erie Horror”, available to Patrons on my Patreon page.

If I dig up any more shots like this, I’ll post them. A new “Barcrawl” page will be up very soon, as well.

Barcrawl of the Damned 15

Magical doubletap!

Here’s a character concept for a new Brian Babyok scripted Phineus story called, “Phineus – Queen of the Cold Night“. Coming soon, after I finish up a few other stories, first!

New Stuff is On the Way

I’ve been working on new pages and fleshing out story ideas. A lot of my time, recently has been spent working on a commission story. This has been financially helpful, as well as a good kick in my creativity! I haven’t felt this good about art and art making since before the car accident that ruined my drawing thumb. I’m so excited!

The plan is to work on the commission AND my comic at the same time. Now that I’ve unstuck myself, should be doable!

I have been working out some kinks in the two current stories, buy sketching them out in my sketchbook. God, I missed sketchbooking. So, more of sketchbooking to come, as well. Helps me think out loud.

I should have a new page of “Barcrawl” out this week. Above are what I’ve been drawing in the last few days!

Early Phin and Sara Sketchbooking

Here are some old sketches from my college sketchbooks for Phin and Sara. This was all prepping for what would eventually be “Dismember Me When You’re Gone”, the official first Phineus comic.

There was a lot of playing with looks and poses. As well as a lot of sloppy texture. It’s a fun look back at where I was way back in 1990-1991.

Contessa

The Contessa is (barring Howie from Teen Wizard) my oldest existing character. I’ve been drawing her ever since I saw Tobe Hooper’s “Lifeforce”.

The Contessa was ported into my comic as a major villain, however, aside from a cameo in “Wake the Dead” she didn’t show up until 2012’s, “Have a Drink on Me”.

I am missing the first picture I made of her, which was confiscated in Middle school, due to nudity. In the class where I fleshed out Phineus, a pre-college art class at CMU, using an early Photoshop like program called Pandavision, I traced a pencil drawing into the program to digitally draw and color it (you can see it below). Keep in mind this was in 1987.

There’s lot’s of boobs involved with her.

Phineus through the years

I updated the strip I had of this from 2015 to include the newest stuff.

The Evolution of Cole Beam

The idea of “Magician for Hire” started long , long ago as “Phineus 2036”.

I had the idea as far back as 2005. Cole has evolved many times, in look, name and character since then. As has the story.

I really like the curly haired version, and she may be a future, older version of Cole.

Background for Complete Phineus 6

Complete Phineus Volume 6 Cover Background

This one turned out too cool to only see it obscured with a Phineus overlap and cover matter.

The Complete Phineus  Volume 6 up for sale at Amazon , NOW!

Cthulhu Cult Background

Cthulhu Cult Bio

These guys are a cross between Cthulhu Star Children, genestealers and Mind Flayers. They’re fun.

Lovecraftian horrors

These are some of the game pieces I did, based off of Phineus monsters for One Page Rules. I plan to use them in a tabletop game supplement for the Phineus RPG.
