READY TO GET WET?! Louis Southard and @tomhoskisson.bsky.social return to Kickstarter in OCEANMAN ADVENTURES #1! A thrilling, aquatic, 200+ page, comic book anthology of seaside stories brought to you by one of the most exciting teams of comic book professionals this side of the Pacific!

A day late for #BatmanDay, but a new Batman drawing has been overdue, and a proper chance to draw the modern Jorge Jimenez design. #batman #dc #comics #procreate #drawing #art

New prints and business card! Don’t know when I’ll be tabling next yet, but I’ll have some new print options on hand when I do!

Juggling a few projects at the moment, but had to get a #GreenLantern out my system. Thanks to the Justice League animated series, #JohnStewart is the GL I grew up on, and really happy the character is finally being done in live action. #Lanterns has been great so far! #dc #comics #procreate

Some of the panels I drew AND colored for Stonerolled Publishing’s Irth #2! We’re signing at Yonkers Brewing Company tomorrow from 1-5pm! #irth #indie #comics #art #procreate

Given yesterday’s casting news, here’s an Emma Frost sketch to break in the new sketchbook. Watercolor and micron. Samara Weaving is an excellent choice for Emma, so happy to finally see a fresh take on X-Men taking shape. #emmafrost #xmen #marvel #watercolor

Can’t wait for the next episode of The Ghost In The Shell! The times I’ve drawn Motoko Kusanagi in the past, they were based on the Stand Alone Complex design. Here’s one more influenced by the original manga and the latest anime. #ghostintheshell #motokokusanagi #procreate #manga #anime

Finished up my lineart on Host Mortem. This was the longest project of my career so far, and I can’t wait for you all to see what @kevinshinick.bsky.social, @pippabowland.bsky.social, @tayloresposito.bsky.social, @captainitaly.bsky.social, @mattgaudioart.bsky.social, and I cooked up for this book!

On August 15th, I’ll be at the Yonkers Brewing Company with Daniel Carpenter, signing copies of Irth #2! I did some of the pages in this issue, and it’s the first time I handled my own colors on my interiors! August 15, 1pm-5pm. See you there! #irth #comics #indie #art #procreate

#PortfolioDay I’m Damien, and clients include: Marvel, Dynamite, Netflix, HBO, Nat Geo, Iron Age, Clover Press, Space Between Entertainment, White Ash Comics, Sinopa, and more! I have some things lined up, but looking for future interior work and more covers! 📧dtor91@gmail.com

Finally filled all the gaps in my Tomb Raider collection. 2, The Last Revelation, Chronicles, and the PS2 version of The Angel Of Darkness (no idea where my PC copy is.) Isn’t it great that you can still buy older games? Keep physical media alive.

Despite all the terrible gaming news, pretty much non-stop all year, it’s been great to see the community stepping to keep the good times going. Keep physical media alive. #kasumi #morrigan #tifa #2b #deadoralive #darkstalkers #finalfantasyvii #nierautomata

My gaming collection started with N64, and I’d love to get all my previous gens of games out their boxes, my dad’s NES and Atari 2600 games too, but here’s the physical copies I have for the current gen. Guess the sneak in here though: it was a gift and is a code in a case.

Missed sharing this, but @boneidolcomics.bsky.social’s Eldritch Lust 1-3 is being collected as a trade! Two days left on the campaign. Here’s a page I drew for “Astral Empyrean,” penned by @ceejthehudson.bsky.social, colors by @br-peer.bsky.social , letters by @jayboy495.bsky.social! Link below!

@sinopa-publishing.bsky.social has a new campaign running: a Fourth Of July print run featuring Tibbi, from the title, Tibbi and her Time-Traveling Psychedelic Mushrooms! Print options are available and a chance to own the original art. Drawn and colored by me. Link below! and story! #tibbi #comics

Resharing these for no particular reason. #tombraider #finalfantasy #halo #spyro #laracroft #tifa #masterchief #theweapon #cortana #sparx

No longer this year, but the point remains!

Looking back at this piece, I felt the values weren’t pushed enough before. So I addressed that and fixed up some parts of the drawing that was bothering me. Really exciting to see Tomb Raider is poised to make a big comeback this year across all media. #tombraider #laracroft #procreate #games

Edited and colored over an older Morrigan the other night. Shortly after while getting back to pages, my iPad hard crashed for a second time. Not sure how much legs it has left. At least there’s paper! Anyway, here’s #Morrigan! #darkstalkers #capcom #procreate #games #art #traditional #ink #digital

Star Wars Day! Sharing these particular pieces from over the years because Knights Of Old Republic needs to come back already damn it. #starwars #bastilashan #darthrevan #darthmalak #starwarsknightsoftheoldrepublic #starwarsday

So Tifa may be coming to Street Fighter 6. This will be familiar, since I drew it two years ago, but I probably only spent like 30 minutes on colors then. So I just touched it up as color practice in between pages. Done on Procreate. #tifalockhart #finalfantasyvii #finalfantasy #squareenix

Last of this Kasumi, I promise. This time, variants of her main two outfits. #kasumi #deadoralive #procreate #digital #games #teamninja #art

The shadow hands trend Kasumi once again, but without the convenient lens flare and the original grayscale art with slight color hues. Will likely start using this approach more often with colors. #kasumi #deadoralive #procreate #tecmo #teamninja #art #digital

Managed to squeeze something in for that Buongiorno trend happening at that other place. #kasumi #deadoralive #games #art #artwork #procreate #digital #tecmo #teamninja #videogames

Some Host Mortem snippets. #hostmortem #comics #cloverpress #indie #noir

Received my trade copy of @spacebetween.bsky.social’s #VixxTheHunter! I did variant covers for # 1 and 2, and the design and origin story for the character, Hemlock. Got to work with the great @patshand.bsky.social! Here’s some pages, and the main cover by @sedatoezgen.bsky.social ! #comics

Some of my coworkers and I attended a figure drawing session last night. I haven’t done any real figure drawing in what has felt like ages. These are some of 5-20 minute ones. #figuredrawing #art #sketch #pencil #ink
