I’ve caught up on my work schedule enough to start on my Barkira pages. Here’s a grainy picture of my favorite panel from one of my pages. There are seriously not enough character closeups in these pages, you guys. MO’ FLANDERS!
A catalog or manual documenting the monsters, beasts, wizards, and ghouls that stalk the 33 realms. This is a companion site to the web comic Doctor Mystery, which takes place in the same world.

maxwellmalone asked: Has Doctor Mystery discontinued mysteriously? :(((
The short answer is “No?” The longer answer is more like “It’s on my to-do list, but currently that list has about ten other huge things in front of it, so I’ve had to take stock and focus on what’s important. Believe it or not, its really tough to do a page a week regularly and still get all your other work done. So I decided to put it on hiatus for the foreseeable future.”
That being said, I really love the story that I wanted to tell (although I never even got to the meat of it). When it comes down to it, I’d rather keep going with the Godins and then do Doctor Mystery after that’s done. In the mean time, I’ll do some short comics and keep cranking out illustrations and monsters. I’ve also got a crazy project in the works that I can’t wait to announce once it actually becomes a thing.
For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, check out Doctor Mystery.

Implanted by cursed spores into the host’s brain, the Grimbler gestates over a period of months, slowly digesting brain tissue while its tendrils work their way throughout the host body. By the time the creature reaches maturity, the host’s mind has been fully devoured while the body becomes a mere puppet. After the body has deteriorated significantly, the beast exits the body as seen above.

arsdefectuosa asked: I find your art amazing! Do you accept art trades? if not, i think i'll have to buy you something ;) (even if you accept art trades, i'll have to buy you something, seriously, you're amazing)
The almighty Snake Lord has confirmed from the artist that he does indeed consider art trades on a case-by-case basis. The art must be of an awesome nature and he prefers other artistic interpretations of his own creations in a manner known on the human plane as “fan art.” Further requests may be taken up via electronic mail. THUS SPOKE THE ALMIGHTY SNAKE LORD.
