Daily Animal Sketch – Badgers and Caribou

Daily Animal Sketch – Cutie Ponies

I drew this little guy on a trip to South Carolina last year. I had just finished reading the Unico manga, and wanted to draw some cutie ponies of my own. :3 He’s part zebra, part donkey, part horse.

Polar Den

Nanook and Stella snuggle in the den.

This illustration was done as an experiment to see if I could reproduce the look of traditional pencil lines of my comic, The Last of the Polar Bears, with digital tools. I created it from start to finish on the Cintiq Companion with Clip Studio Paint (and some final touches in Photoshop).

Being able to go completely digital on the comic would save me a lot of time (no more scanning and cleanup). :) What do you think, can you tell the difference?

Thunder Wolf

I did this little wolf illustration for a tutorial about tips for drawing cute creatures in the May 2013 issue of ImagineFX's Fantasy and Sci-Fi Digital Art magazine. You can also find him in IFX's 2013 Digital Artist's Survival Guide. :3
