Back playing the Witcher 3 again! Which means it’s definitely time for some more Witcher art. Starting off with a Triss Merigold piece!

Happy 60th anniversary to Star Trek! I’m really proud of the work I’ve done for IDW’s Trek line. I’ve the honour to illustrate over 30 covers so far across an amazing collection of books.

A Red Sonja cover sketch commission. My first time ever drawing the character. The paper on the cover was horrible and any attempt at erasing things would permanently smudge onto the paper but I think it turned out pretty good.

Finished Zero Company last night. Such a fun game. I’ve now stated an ‘oops all Clones’ playthrough.

A WIP look at a new medieval Star Wars piece that I’ve been working on. Going back to the Clone Wars era.

Loving the hell out of Zero Company. It’s super fun and I love the team. Someone let me draw a Hawk/Runa prequel comic.

Really looking forward to Ahsoka season 2, it looks great! Here’s a piece I worked on from S1.

Just saw my Captain Kirk cover for @idwpublishing.com Star Trek Classic Collection has been released. This may be my favourite Trek piece I’ve worked on so far.

Karlach with a touch of art nouveau! Always love drawing Baldur’s Gate characters.

Looking forward to the Ninth Jedi! I’ve been hoping for a series of it since the first Visions short.

"It's not the years, it's the mileage," Here's some old Indiana Jones pieces. It's been some time, I need to draw him again soon.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Recently finished rereading the 2014 Mighty Thor run, still one of my favourite comics. I love Jane Foster’s arc through the books, eventually becoming Valkyrie. Had to draw a piece featuring some of Marvel’s Valkyrior.

Illustrated this Wonder Woman piece after catching up on reading Dark Knights of Steel.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I seem to have been collecting franchises that start with S. Star Wars, Star Trek, Stranger Things. I feel like I need to add more to this list. Quick, who needs a Sherlock Holmes, Sailor Moon or Superman cover?

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

I’ve been doing some little warm up pieces of Magic: The Gathering characters. Picking them mainly off of vibes.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Been a fan of the books for ages so it’s about time that I drew some Mistborn fan art.

Doing a sneaky second #portfolioday post because I also love drawing Marvel and DC superheroes!

Happy #portfolioday! I am Jake, a freelance Aussie artist working in comics and I tend to draw a lot of cool people with cool swords. On the lookout for new projects for the second half of 2026! Jakebartok.net Jakebartok@icloud.com

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

A quick Hera Syndulla piece. I bought a set of mission patches from Galaxys Edge a couple years back and decided to give her a Top Gun style jacket with them all on. After all, Star Wars is all about cool jackets.

Love getting to post more than 4 pictures. Here’s a look at all six of my covers for the High Republic Adventures: Pathfinders series.

A collection of recent comic book covers I’ve illustrated. If you like these I’m currently available for work!

Here’s something I’m totally cool and calm and professional about. I GOT TO DRAW DA TURTLES! here’s my cover to TMNT #23 out this October!

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

The last and probably my favourite cover that I got to do for Pathfinders! It was such a joy to work on this book.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

I've been drawing a few characters from DC's Absolute line recently. Here's Catwoman who just had her first issue drop last week from Che Grayson @ssnyder1835.bsky.social Bengal and team. It was a great intro and I'm really looking forward to seeing where the story goes!

Zatanna, the Mistress of Magic! I’ve been catching up on some comics recently and read Zatanna Bring Down the House, which was great! Realised that I hadn’t drawn Z in almost a decade so I had to rectify that.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

The Adelphi Rangers I’m a sucker for X-Wing squadrons, and naturally a big fan of every time Adelphi Squadron shows up.

The Absolute DC Trinity Had to do a Batman and Superman to match the Wonder Woman I drew a few weeks back.

I’ve been working on this Mighty Nein piece on and off for a while now and it’s finally finished!

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

While struggling to figure out a composition for another piece, I started absentmindedly sketching random things. Eventually emerging with this piece! An unnamed pantoran Jedi, exploring a snowy world.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 15/05/2026

Mandalorian and Grogu! It’s always so fun to draw these two. Itching to draw a bigger piece but I think I’m gonna hold off till I see the movie.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

Obi-Wan and Satine: on the run. I have a lot of things on my Star Wars bucket list, but very near the top would be drawing a comic about the year Obi-Wan and Satine Kryze spent on the run. (I'd also be very happy if it was an animated series)

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Star Wars but it’s just Lancelot and Guinevere. This is probably still my favourite medieval/fantasy Star Wars piece to date.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 04/05/2026

It may be May the Fourth in some places buts it’s already the Revenge of the Fifth in Aus. Here’s a piece inspired by Maul: Shadow Lord.

Jake Bartok @jakebartok.bsky.social · 04/05/2026

Perfect way to end my May the Fourth is getting a sneak peak at the Mandalorian and Grogu!
