When I first heard of Inktober, I thought the rules were that you had to draw straight in ink from the get-go, and that you didn't know what each day's prompt was going to be. I don't know why I thought this, but even years after finding out these weren't really the "rules," I still …
I originally posted these to Twitter, the first page going up in June and the second page in July. My inspiration was that I got a little tired of seeing everyone and their grandma's poodle redraw that one image of Young Sephiroth in the Flames this past summer when Square Enix had the special FFVII …
Way back in June of last year I was having a conversation with some friends online about what characters from Sailor Moon the cast of Final Fantasy VII would cosplay. Eventually I got around to drawing some of those ideas. Some of these are really rough because not gonna lie, I didn't want to spend …
Back in early February the world was blessed with what is, to me, the best remix of "One-Winged Angel" since "Advent: One-Winged Angel": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsxxnSOg554 When "The Prelude" comes in tho!!!

Having just finished Final Fantasy VII Remake when the Sailor Moon Redraw meme took off, I knew I had to put Cloud into it. It's been a long time since I did fanart at all, and even longer since I drew Cloud, so it was slow going. Here are some work-in-progress pics, followed by my …

I gave a little sneak peak of this poster a few months ago, and now that it's getting closer to show time, I'll unveil the whole thing. I had a blast designing this poster! The characters at the far sides are supposed to be the vampire Euphoria and The Fine Diner, two characters original to …
The translation of the next part of The Air Moon might be a bit delayed as I'm currently applying for grad school. I've gotten most of the technical things like transcripts and references out of the way, but the heavy lifting is yet to come. Also, I'm helping out a friend who needed someone to …
