Hey, everyone, I’m hard at work on finishing up Salvage Hounds Volume 02. Top of that list is working on the cover, and I figured I’d take a break to post a preview in the form of the inks. And hey, why not add a little tease about the story while I’m at it? The …

Here’s a quick update to let everyone know I’m still hard at work on Salvage Hounds Volume 02. In fact, it’s been quiet around these parts precisely because I’ve been working my butt off adding the finishing touches to all 26 pages of the new story. That means painting grays, adding effects, and finalizing letters. …
Yeah, Yeah, I’ve been terrible at updating this past month or so. Let’s just keep this short and get to the art! I finished inking Salvage Hounds Volume 2 a week ago! That means I’ve already started working on the finishes. That includes adding the shading, effects, and final touches, like finalizing the letters. Let’s …
Progress on Salvage Hounds Volume 2 is going well. I finished the pencils at the end of January, and I’ve switched gears to inking, inking, inking. I got some great feedback on the book from my beta readers, as well. The book they read was fully lettered, but all the art was in the pencil …
Ok, ok, I know it’s been quite a while since I’ve updated around these parts. We had the holidays, of course, but also personal life does rear its ugly head from time to time and remind me that it’s not all fun and games. But hey, you came here to learn about the next adventures …
Ok, it’s been a while since my last update. I know, I know—ya’ll want to know what’s cooking in the Twilight Tangents kitchen. Unfortunately, I’ve been sick with not one, but TWO bouts of the flu since Labor Day. I mean, I haven’t been sick since the olden times of 2019. All that masking, social …
Ok, this weeks art update features the clean cover painting for the front and back of Salvage Hounds Volume 01. The above image is the full, wrap around cover, showing both the front and back images. This was my attempt at doing a “movie poster” style layout. I can easily imagine this being a wrap …
Another quick update with cover images. This week it’s the inks from Salvage Hounds volume 01. The first is the wrap-around cover inks (above). I’ve been pushing myself to use more blacks and shadows in my inks, especially on this book. However, knowing that the background was going to be a black, starry space sky …
Just sneaking in another quick art update. This week, it’s all about the cover pencils to Salvage Hounds volume 01, presented clean without titles, logos, and text. The concept for this cover (above image) was sort of a “movie poster” approach, showing a montage of the Hounds set against a backdrop of space. This also …
