Mr Bites! I wanted to draw @blainecapatch.bsky.social’s character from the new Nerd Poker campaign as a warm up. He’s a saber tooth Tabaxi Barbarian which sounded like a fun character to draw #nerdpoker #dungeonsanddragons #dnd #fantasy #characterdesign #sketchbook #barbarian #ink #tabaxi

A saber tooth Tabaxi Barbarian roaring while brandishing his great axe. This character is played by Blaine Capatch and is a prt of the new Need Poker Cavern Campaign. I inked this with Faber Castell Pitt pens in a Stillman & Birn sketchbook. Tabaxi are a kind if cat folk, like Khajiit in Skyrim.

Just scheduled today's Curse of the Eel page & saw that Eel is number 25 in all genres and number 2 in horror comics on Tapas! That's pretty neat! You can read Curse of the Eel here, it's run for over 10 years and is on ch 26! tapas.io/series/Eel/i... #comics #curseoftheeel #horror #art #indie

A screenshot of the Tapas webcomic popular list, in all genres where Curse of the Eel is number 25! What a cool moment, I know it's not a big deal, but it was a nice one.

A page from Curse of the Eel, a human that has delved into dark magic has appeared in a swirl if smoke on a football field, his form a grisly mixture of human and eldritch fish god.

A fantasy comic page with painted graytones titled "The Moon & The Sun: An Honor Bound short story" by Jorge Santiago Jr. The story is set in a fantasy world. Rayner is a European-esque teen with shoulder-length light-colored hair wearing a cloak, Zheng is an East-Asian-esque teen with short dark hair wearing a Chinese-style buttoned tunic. Rayner is reading a thick book on the ledge of a window in a castle when Zheng approaches, commenting, "You sure read a lot, Rayner." Rayner asks, "Is there a problem, Zheng?" Zheng replies, "No, just observing. Your library is quite expansive. You're not learning to be a mage, are you?" Rayner says, "I just like to learn. Do you dislike wizards?" Rayner's expression turns serious as he continues, "History, science, alchemy, legends. All these books are a window to new worlds with untold mysteries to uncover. Why, even the strangest creature could be understood if there was a book..." Rayner trails off, looking at Zheng. "Hmm," mumbles Rayner. "...What?" asks Zheng, looking suspicious.

A black-and-white comic page with textured gray tones, titled "Powerscaling!" by Cullen G. A young black girl, Sabeena, and a young white boy, Drew, sit on the floor in front of a 90s-era TV set watching a movie called "Knights Of The Goblin Lord." Sabeena gushes, "That was the best movie ever! I could watch it a thousand times!" Drew replies, "Told ya! The last fight was freakin' awesome!" Sabeena says, "Tza'rah is so cool! Did you see how she kicked that one guy in the face?" She fantasizes about a dark-skinned warrior woman doing a high kick. Drew replies condescendingly, "Nuh-uh, Rathnar is waaay cooler! He studied the arcane sciences until he could bend fire to his will!" He fantasizes about a light-skinned magician in a long cloak casting fire magic. Sabeena taunts, "She would break your wizard boy in half!" Drew counters, "Not if he sets her on fire first!" Sabeena: "Muscles are better!" Drew: "Arcane science is better!"

A partial comic page in a cartoony, gray-toned style. A cartoon is playing on a TV screen, showing beautiful sparkly young women playing in a band together. A tomboyish young girl is watching the show on a couch in a living room, surrounded by comics and toys of the girls onscreen. She yells, “Mom! Come watch ‘Pretty Pop Princess’ with me!” Through an open doorway we can see her mom washing dishes in the kitchen. Mom groans an unhappy “Ugh…” The text “Pretty Pop Princess” is in a curly font, and credits read “Story & Art: Josh Nickerson.” Next is a four-panel montage of mother and daughter watching the show together, Mom at first annoyed, then slowly getting into it, then getting as excited about it as her daughter is, all while Princess merchandise starts piling up on the couch around them.
