Discipline

  By jclor October 2, 2015 October 2, 2015 Blog

It takes discipline to write.

It takes discipline to get up at 5:30 every morning and run several miles.

It takes discipline to do both every day before work.

This is how I’ve been living the last four days.  The result?  A couple thousand words worth of short story (still … Continue reading

Just some old comic panels

  By jclor September 14, 2015 September 14, 2015 Blog

About ten years ago, an eternity in Internet Time™, I tried my hand at drawing some web comics.  While most were of a satirical nature, poking fun at such diverse topics as superheroes and Medieval tapestries, in one case I attempted the daunting (at least for me) challenge of drawing … Continue reading

Just something I drew: The Grey Gecko!

  By jclor June 3, 2015 June 3, 2015 Comics, Portfolio

Many moons ago, I started drawing a comic in (what I thought was) a novel format: each issue was a single piece of paper, folded and folded and folded into a tiny book you unfurled as your read it.  It was something I came up with while working at one of … Continue reading

Absurd Clip Art! Part Two!

  By jclor May 14, 2015 May 14, 2015 Blog

There really is no end of the strange images that surface when you do a simple web search for clip art.  (To be fair, search results for stock photos can be just as bizarre.)

Absurd Clip Art!

  By jclor April 24, 2015 April 24, 2015 Blog

I’ve look at a lot of clip art and vector art via Google image search in the process of creating my Conspiracy! evidence cards.  It’s a way to crank out quick prototype cards without fussing with original art (or artless cards, which are no fun).  If the game ends up … Continue reading

Syskuun map

Just a random posting of an old map I drew many ages ago.

My creation of Syskuun was a reaction … Continue reading

Samantha color test

Here is a scan (click to embiggenate) of a character study I did many moons ago of the primary protagonists of Fury and the Demon.

It’s roughly poster-sized, mostly because I like working large.  I find the standard Blueline comic boards absurdly small, and I am simultaneously mystified and amazed that … Continue reading
