Cold Ghosts - Personal Web-Comic

Cold Ghosts is a personal online web-comic I work on in my spare time. Originally launched in February 2015, each new upload was consistently in the top 100 web-comic lists when live.

At least 120 pages in length, this story has a solid beginning, middle and end set in a fantasy world. Loosely inspired by native cultures and folk lore from my time in Canada it pulls from all different aspects of small self contained cultures and their stories to explain how the world works. Originally aimed for all ages with current script changes it may change the target audience to slightly older children due to an element of fantasy horror.

I am solely responsible for all aspects of this comic including script, web design, concepts, pencils, colours, lettering and promotion.

Uploads have temporarily been put on hiatus as I re-assess script strengths and art direction along side my other responsibilities with my freelance career and part time job.

D.E.R.P. - Personal Web-Comic

An experimental autobiographical web-comic I worked on for a year during 2012 - 2013. The loose form and chapter to chapter writing style allowed me to experiment with art and writing style to find my sequential art voice.

During this short but sweet project I learned a lot about the medium and grew as an artist. I was responsible for script, web design and management, pencils, inks and lettering.

D.E.R.P. created a small fan following which have been asking for more ever since it's hiatus announcement. Chapter 3 has still been written and there is a chance I will return to this fun experimental art vent comic.
