DS #43 pushed back a week

Hey guys, as I'm going to be out of town for ECCC for the better part of a week, to be safe I'm going to push Dark Science #43 back a week too. I've been grinding hard to see if I could get the page d...

Emerald City Comic Con!

Hey Seattle, it’s that time again! I’ll be at ECCC this Friday-Sunday (March 27-29) at Topatoco’s booth 1102. I’m right on the sky bridge, so I’m easy to find! Come on over, we’ll have a g...

Star Wars Rebels

Who's seen this show? I think anyone who likes my approach with Star Wars '99 would really dig it. It actually uses a lot of old Ralph McQuarrie designs, and also essentially pretends the prequels nev...

It's the TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY of Dresden Codak! How did this happen? How am I still alive? These questions may never be answered.

Dark Science #42 - Introspection

Garnet!

Voting is open for this month's Wallpaper Empire: http://goo.gl/forms/CvS4TA1X8h The options this time round are: - The Silmaril...

Warmup sketch: the cast of Metropolis! I've only ever drawn the Thin Man before, but man, I love everyone because they're all big cartoons!

Experimenting with some different styles and a completely different painting technique. Awkward, but it's fun to try something else, I rarely get a chance to!

Dark Science #41 - The Parade of Progress

Special four-panel preview of Dark Science #41

Get ready for the update this Monday!

First panel: exactly 55 minutes to finish, a new personal best! Anyone who says you have to sacrifice quality for speed is a liar.

Color Test for DS #41

Not based on any particular scene in the comic, just a 30 minute test to see if the lighting, etc. are a good fit.

So I drew all that in one sitting. This is kind of a game changer. I tweeted a little about this, but I'll share it here too: this week I've made some discoveries, namely that the speed of Dresden Co...

The new schedule starts TODAY! Pray for me.

$4,500+ reached! Time for BIWEEKLY UPDATES

Thank you so much for all of your support, guys, I'm continuously overwhelmed by how great you are. I'll let you know soon when the faster update schedule will start (I need to work out logistics with...

Dark Science Act 3 Character Sheet

Thought you guys might like this- at the start of each chapter, I put together a basic style guide and reference sheet for the main characters. It's also a time when I get to tweak and update my overa...

Kim's Finalized Designs for Chapter 3 (for real this time)

Completely revisited the design and I think I'm much happier with it. What do you guys think?

Influence Map 2015

So I decided to put together an updated influence map for my work! Here are the artists who are the biggest influence on my visual and storytelling style. Each image size is roughly proportionate to h...

Dark Science #40 - The Fire

Enjoy this double-sized edition of Dark Science! It was fun and also exhausting to try this format again, but I think it was worth it.

Warmup sketch: no penciling, erasing, or undoing. Just improv design until I decided it was done. Surprisingly difficult for me.

Warmup Sketch: Ghost in the Shell!

I realized this morning that despite being a pretty big influence on my work, I've never actually drawn anything from Ghost in the Shell, so here's Batou and the Major!

Discussion Question: Who's Your Favorite Cyborg?

These discussion questions have been really great this week! I've got one more for you: who's your favorite fictional cyborg? 1 - They must be composed of both organic and mechanical components. No c...

Discussion Question: who is your all-time favorite superhero and why?

This is more off-beat for Dresden Codak, but I have my reasons! Who's your favorite superhero? For me, my favorite comic growing up was Thor, but if I'm just going by the character, my all-time favo...
