Peggy and the Cave Fisher




This is my Human Paladin, Peggy, ripping the barb of a Cave Fisher from her neck. She don't even care!
Peggy's actual name is Poid du Bois, which I got from translating 'wooden leg' into French very roughly. She lost a leg at a young age, but it doesn't slow her down. She still has a 6 move!

Bubbles!

Just recently, Jimi has been bubbling over with drool. It drenches his bib, which is gross, but the champagne look is pretty funny, so it all works out.

Big Red!

Another Illustration from our Lunchtime D&D campaigns. Same team, but this is a friend's Dwarf Battlemind facing off against some Carrion Crawlers in a disgustulous sewer!
It was a pretty impressive round, he downed one and immobilized another. I had to draw the showdown.
So here's the sketch at the table on the post-it note and the photoshopped version. Hope you like it!

Baby gone crazy!

Jimi has a pretty good amount of energy throughout the day. He's very curious and wants to be entertained. Who could blame him?
But lets just say that around 10 hours into his curiosity and entertainment needs, mom is in need of some help. Hopefully dad gets home in time before the last of her energy is spent, but not every day.

Bush Monk!


This is the character I play in my friend's campaign.
Walden is a humanoid bush. He's quick as can be, dumb as rocks and incredibly obnoxious. He uses a big live-wood hoop as his kung-fu weapon of choice. Here's a scene of what that looks like:

Starting at 4:20, totally nuts!

I did this illustration in the upper corner of my character sheet, then did a colored version in photoshop. It looks like he's bursting out of a hedge.
Exciting!

Almost rolling!





















Not quite rolling, but he's about halfway these days. Little Jimi, as we like to call him, is making splendid progress. Just splendid!

Elevator.




Today, my wife and son were trapped in a department store elevator. All told, they were there for about a half an hour. 
At first, he cried and cried from being trapped in such a hot, small, boring space. In any other situation he would need to be walked around in his stroller to keep from crying. But, as the fear of being trapped began to set in for my wife, his demeanor changed. As she nursed him to keep him hydrated, he reached out his little hand and held hers. He never let go until help arrived and they were safe. 
Only 4 months old and he was so strong for his mama. I'm so proud of our big little boy.

Doodle

Abstract doodle I whipped up. Kinda makes me think of a Tesla coil.

Baby Paladin

Baby Paladin shields himself from the fiery breath of a red dragon. Can he reach his sword? If he does, can he swing it?
At least he found armor and clothes that fit..  That baby must be richer than hell, gettin' himself all tailored-up like.

Bath Time

Boy does our boy like his bath time! Even though he's hungry and tired and fed up, he still gets the giggles for bath time.
In this respect, especially, he is his Momma's son.
Dad prefers to be stinky.

Happiest Moment of the Day

This is the happiest moment of my day. Almost every day, at a certain time, my wife gets our son and waits in front of our building for me to come home.
The moment I see them, I feel so happy words can't express.

Sweet Pea!

Nowadays, our baby boy likes to kick a lot. At night, this means he kicks his blankets off, which is no good.
The solution is the Sweet Pea, the cutest piece of clothing in his arsenal. He can't kick it off, and he looks like an adorable worm.
Everybody wins.

Mesmer Baby














This is a recently developed talent. He learned it, somehow, at Disneyland.

The Shocking Continuance!
























Looks like Squirrely struck oil! So to speak.

Unreleased Comics!




































Oh dear lord I forgot I made this. There's another one, but just the two of em. Never released it on account of I wanted to build up a bunch before I set em loose in the wild.
Hope you like it!

The Magnetic Gentlemen, pt. 3 A!

Could it be? Who is that daring fellow, elegantly slaying a charging dragon, single-handedly?

It couldn't be the diminutive Pipikio. A slight halfling with a wide grin, he's dangerous to be sure. But an adult red all by himself?

We'll have to take a closer look!

Thri Kreen!



























Thri-Kreen. Mantis people of the desert! Next on the docket for D&D is a Dark Sun campaign, and the Thri-Kreen are easily the sweetest playable race. Getting pumped!

The Magnetic Gentlemen, pt. 2

Introducing the second of the Magnetic Gentlemen, Gurgahl, the Eladrin wizard!
He is stealing something important from the ravenous beholder, but I don't know what.
I sure hope it's worth the trouble!

Fresh out the bath!

Darwin leaps from the bath, fresh and sparkling.
Chinchillas love baths, give em lots of dust and they will love you passionately!

Concerning cat antics.













But seriously, we love our cat. 

The Magnetic Gentlemen, pt. 1

I've recently introduced a group of villains  to my PCs, known in bounty hunting circles as the "Magnetic Gentlemen". I like them a lot, so I figured I'd do a series of sketches about their past exploits.

This is their fearless leader Kurassio battling an Umber Hulk in some dank cavern.

I think the light is coming from the pools of...  magic water? Works for me!

Night time is when dad is vulnerable.

















Recently, as a new father, I would wake up in the middle of the night to care for my son. I would drag myself out of bed feeling horrible, achy, brain half-functioning, and irritable. My back felt like it was going to tear open from lifting him from the wrong angle for the hundredth time that day..  
..But then he would smile at me. A look of absolute joy at being there, just hanging out. He would make a little excited giggle-gurgle (which is the happiest sound a person can make) and I would start to cry out of exhausted happiness.
It's a moment I love so much I wanted to share.
