Rust Waist-up Commission

A commission for someone who asked of a good shirtless reference of my own character, Rust! I’ve never gotten a commission for my own character before but it was a lot of fun!

Rust means a lot to me as a character. I’ve had him since 2011 I think and he’s gone through a few redesigns but I’m so happy with where he is now! I’m glad people like him!

We’re Still Here: A Trans Anthology Comic “ID’d”

Comic page, a transmasc individual walks through an LCBO (Canada's government owned liquor store). They walk through the aisles lined with wine bottles. Their phone begins to vibrate and we see it's "Theo" with a photo that shows these two are twins.
Our protagonist picks up the phone: Hey bro. Yeah, they have it. Anything else? They pause and we do not hear what Theo is saying but it takes our protagonist off guard. They respond: Uh! No, I haven't seen it. They're now very nervous and sweaty but walk up to the cash. Still on the phone they say: When I get home I'll help you look for it. Yeah. Okay. Bye. The cashier deadpan asks: You got ID? Our protagonist looks nervously away and then back to the cashier with a fake smile. They say: Y-yeah! One sec! In their wallet, they have their Ontario Driver's License which shows an old photo that no longer looks like our short haired, sideburned protagonist. The name reads "Diana Jolie Archer" and the sex is "F". However, they pull out a second ID from behind it that looks more like our protagonist and reads "Theodore Joel Archer" with the sex being "M", the implied missing object from the phone conversation. The cashier holds the ID up to our protagonist and okay's it. Our main character sighs with relief as they leave the store with a paper bag. They say: It's only for one more week. As they anticipate their new ID to come in.

A while back I was in the anthology “We’re Still Here”, and now I’ve been given permission to post my full comic. It’s a story I’ve been playing with for a while, especially since this was written before I changed my name and gender marker on my own ID. The characters featured here might also show up again soon, so look out for them~

AU: D&D Dead City

Was thinking about D&D and how I’ve never played it. But I’ve made a lot of characters for it. For this month’s Patreon Wallpaper I wanted to do a D&D au so I couldn’t NOT make the boys’ character sheets! I used Orcpub to make the sheets and just rewrote them to look more natural.

Backstory is still a bit up in the air but Mikael and JP found themselves apart of the same caravan and met within it. They were separated from the caravan and are now travelling together. I only assume hijinks ensue.

Be sure to check patreon for all my AU wallpapers!
