The Alchemist.
So, I have quite an otherworldly wound on my arm. Not only did it leave a large patch of my skin strangely hairless, it cut out a pattern that seems to belong in some science fiction representation of human DNA. But not entirely. It also resembles an abstract understanding of a circuit board. Probably the strangest part of it all, however, is that what little it bled was not blood...
It bled ink.
KONTROL-- Here's an old one that I finished probably about 2 months ago and never posted up. Was going for a simple, retro sci-fi look mixed with Cold War propaganda...
This is a favorite of mine because it was completely designed and colored with pencil, pen, and marker... no sprays.
In anticipation of N7 Day tomorrow, I wanted to share this minimal fanart title card I created last year. After the teaser trailer that confirmed it would continue the story post-Shepard, I was thinking about possible storylines, about rebuilding in the aftermath of ME3… and the tagline “Reclaim the Past” kinda stuck in my head. Which is where this sorta overgrown stone title text came from—the need to rebuild, but also the idea of nature reclaiming broken worlds.
(I was feeling nostalgic for the old font on “EFFECT” so I used that instead of the newer, more squared-off version.)

Can’t wait to see what they do with the next entry in the series! (And I have a new title card I created for this year that I’ll be sharing tomorrow!)
My man Stegall, going at it... like this one a lot.
Internet. Enter a net. In a web, Caught I’ve got To break free Of this spider’s Clutch. Bow legged and Beaten; where is My digital crutch? Mind in dust. It’s been mined Into the cybernetic Crust. All blood and wire And Ethernet veins I’m hoping for an Earth that remains, A body that restrains, A mind that retains. Let’s hope one day We can break free Of this web we’ve Entered into. One day. But, not yet. We’re Still caught in the Internet.

A few days ago, I launched my debut novel COLOR OF A MIRROR. Written, designed, and published by me, it’s my vision of a dark, cyberpunk future. No galactic stakes, no one person saving the human race… it’s a cerebral story of very human characters trying to carve out an existence in a near future city that will crush them without a second thought. If you like Blade Runner or the writing of William Gibson, I think you’ll find something to love in this book.

And I’m so excited to announce that the softcover novel is now available exclusively on my website! (Please note, I absolutely will ship internationally! If you’re having trouble with an order, just send me a message through the site and I’ll work to fix it.)

So if you’re looking for something a little different this Black Friday/Cyber(punk) Monday, here’s the link again, in case you didn’t click the one above: colorofamirror.net and I hope to see you all in The Dive!
