@adamwarren.bsky.social
Freelance comics writer and artist. Creator of the ongoing 'sexy superhero comedy' series EMPOWERED, published by Dark Horse Comics and now serialized as a webcomic.
2006 commission of Roxy from GEN13 (aka "Freefall," hence the airborne motif), featuring plenty o' photoreferenced leather; for good or ill, this was about as close as I'd ever get to actual life drawing until 2017 or so.

Pretty decent 2019 sketch set of X-MEN's Magik based on cosplay photoreference, drawn in Procreate using the Medium Hard Airbrush (IIRC) tool I preferred back then. (Still pisses me off that Procreate's lettering tools are easier to use than those of Clip Studio Paint, though.)

Our heroines are none too thankful for enduring a pigout grossout courtesy of the Junk-Food Elemental in today's webcomic page from the 2018 miniseries EMPOWERED AND SISTAH SPOOKY'S HIGH SCHOOL HELL: www.empoweredcomic.com/comic/high-s...

Brace for a truly repulsive hazelnut-chocolate eruption from the Junk-Food Elemental in today's webcomic page from the 2018 miniseries EMPOWERED AND SISTAH SPOOKY'S HIGH SCHOOL HELL: www.empoweredcomic.com/comic/high-s...

From April, a rather desperate #Clipstudiopaint set sketching various riffs from Shirow’s fantasy-centric INTRON DEPOT 2: BLADES. Alas, I clearly lack the patience necessary to draw such complicated fantasy-milieu costumes on an ongoing basis.

S’more 2024 Clip Studio Paint life drawings from me ol’ P*treon. Still the case, BTW, that whether in digital or analog media, my rendering approaches work WAY better with high-contrast images than with mid-tone ranges. (Ehh, whateva…)

I shelved fantasy romantic action/comedy THE CHASTE AND THE CHAINED as a "drawn-by-me" project because the art chores ultimately proved unappealing, as this absurdly time-consuming spread from an early test story might hint. (I'd still love to just write and lay out the series, though.)

S’more 2023 sketch pieces from shelved fantasy romantic action/comedy THE CHASTE AND THE CHAINED, with the fetching Elven Mage and struggling-with-celibacy Paladin forced together in some goofily contrived scenario. HUZZAH!

Ehh, the lower portion of this 2023 test illo from on-hiatus fantasy project THE CHASTE AND THE CHAINED doesn't QUITE count as an entry in the Frieren upshot meming frenzy due to the more rotated facial angle I drew for my Elven Mage, but what the heck...

Given that 2018’s EMPOWERED AND SISTAH SPOOKY’S HIGH SCHOOL HELL is currently being serialized on the EMPOWERED webcomic site, thought I might as well belatedly post the only piece of my own artwork that appears in the miniseries (as a hasty recap). Pencil art ahoy!

Life drawing set from this summer drawn in Clip Studio Paint; bizarrely enough, my second, “cartoony” take on a photo with VERY challenging lighting looks more like the source image than my botched “realistic” take. Go figure!

An old sample page from on-hiatus fantasy project THE LAST PARTY, dug up a few months ago to try out inking with various brush pens. This initial test was none too promising, but later experiments with the Zebra felt-tip brush pen worked out much better.

Two recent sketches drawn in Clip Studio Paint (iOS version), covering both the 80s ecchi anime POP CHASER and the 60s TV classic THE AVENGERS, though with Ninjette from my series EMPOWERED taking the place of Emma Peel as the “Queen of Sin” in the latter image. Yay?
