Rock On

"This enthusiasm is making me emotional. Let's fuck up a Klorman plot and call it a day."

—Sage Gallows, EY2421



ABOUT


I'm a digital artist and writer who loves sci-fi, fantasy, feisty heroines and damsels in distress. By no means am I a professional, but I like to think my work has improved over the years.


I don't make any money from this, so please leave a comment if you enjoy something. It only takes a few seconds, and it's the only payment I get for the hours and hours I put into this artwork. Civil constructive criticism is also welcome.



COMMISSIONS / REQUESTS


I'm not taking commissions or requests at this time.



UPDATES


I don't have a set-in-stone release schedule, but I try to keep my gallery going with a steady flow of content. God knows there's a massive backlog here dating back to 2014, but activity levels vary from month to month.

The End

2 min read
It almost seems redundant to "announce" anything, since I've mostly been reduced to releasing occasional one-offs, having done no proper Syndicate Wars comic since 2021. Be that as it may, consider this the formal closing of Syndicate Wars and all its connected franchises. I've said in the past that I didn't want to officially quit until I had at least wrapped up Sage's storyline. But that was before Wix took over DA and banned half my audience, and before most of the other half faded away for various reasons. Now with the proliferation of AI on this platform, I have essentially lost all remaining motivation to press on with my decade-old project, and I want to put all my limited creative energy elsewhere. Again, I mostly have anyway, but I suppose this is just formalizing the obvious. I'm undecided on whether to keep my DA account open. For the time being, the ten years' worth of art on here won't be going anywhere. I've posted my work in so many places, closing my DA account

I've been referencing the planet Andor in the Syndicate Wars universe for nearly a decade. Relevance to Star Wars: Andor --> 0.

Someone turn off the lights, not much to see here anymore...NOOOO sobbing - crying .

Damn, I will miss you.

Wow, I am impressed by the variety of your art - even though the topics may be quite obvious, the outcome is so diverse, I love browsing through your work!

Admittedly I am not too much into reading the texts though :-)

Well, gobs of text aren't for everyone. Thank you very much for viewing and commenting all the same. ;P

your stuff is gorgeous!!!

Thank you so much for watching me :love:

You're very kind person :hug:

I have just read your confessions of a slave trader stories and I really love them. They are extremely well written and very sexy. It makes me hot imaging being one of those restrained girls. One of the best stories I have read on here. I will explore your graphic stories next.
