It’s #PortfolioDay!

Hi there! I’m Brendan, an illustrator and comic artist that loves to draw fantasy and sci-fi characters.

I’m currently looking for work (freelance or in-house). I’d love to work on a video game.

An adventuring party standing on a hill in front of the lighthouse dungeon they will soon be entering. There is an android in a long overcoat, a small gnomish mage, a fox-like alchemist, and a large eleven paladin.

The Pokémon Regice. A blue crystalline automaton with seven yellow eyes and a skeleton inside its body.

A girl with wild yellow hair partially held in two upward pigtails wearing a scarf, puffer jacket, long ski pants and snow boots. She’s leaning over in an unnatural pose.

A dog named Adelaide walking through a sense autumn forest. The text at the top reads “Come On and Join the Adelaide Parade”.

Hey! I'm E.M., I make comics & a bunch of other stuff! I just published a graphic novel called The Last Band On Earth which you can get from my shop here: ko-fi.com/s/ec1f7cdea3 (digital version here as well - ko-fi.com/s/a00aca22ef )
And here's where else you can find me: cuckoosnestpress.carrd.co

Cover illustration for Hexagon Magazine, depicting two figures in hazmat suits reflected in a pond. They are holding hands and walking away together. The ground is covered with fungi and spore dander. There is a large smiling frog in the far foreground in the bottom right corner.

A page from my graphic novel The Last Band On Earth, depicting two characters, Nat and Rick, on a rooftop in a windstorm, battling an evil eldritch being that resembles a biblically accurate angel, but with bat wings instead of feathery angel wings, and several long strands of sinew stretching out from its midsection in all directions. Rick is hooking his phone up to a guitar amplifier with a dongle and searching through his files to find something loud to play through the amplifier. Yup!

An acrylic painting of a dead tree trunk split down the center into three pieces, surrounded by rocks and foliage. A small black blob with eyes is perched on the edge of one of the stump pieces, peering out at the viewer on the right side. Another identical black blob is crawling on the ground behind the stump at the left.

An old hollowed out car, an Austin Mini, parked in a driveway. There are several stylized ghosts drifting out of it. The colour palette is entirely monochrome red, giving the whole piece an eerie atmosphere.

Requinoesis✨ @requinoesis.bsky.social · 18h

Hi hi #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨

I'm Requinoesis, someone who loves the ocean! I'm dedicated to creating a new insight into the imagery of sharks under pastel colors! 🌊🦈✨

You can see more of my art stuff here, if you want: linktr.ee/requinoesis

Roberto, the great hammerhead shark, explores the ruins of an ancient museum destroyed by Typhon's storm. He holds a flashlight and carries a mysterious human spirit in his backpack, who accompanies him in silence.

The place, shrouded by the phenomenon called “cursed salt mist”, is covered in a permanent fog. Salt crystals sprout everywhere and a supernatural presence seem to lurk among the rubble.

The spirit that accompanies Roberto is liquid and translucent. Sometimes little tropical fish of extinct species float around him, as if attracted by his presence.

The museum's architecture is full of organic curves and ornate tiles. Decorated columns show a crab with a human face holding the moon between its pincers, an ancient symbol of a historical figure revered by the sharkfolk.

A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants.

A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea.

An allegory of the "Jaws" movie poster that caused damage and negative stereotypes to the image of sharks that persist to this day (I'm glad it's slowly changing, but it's still too slow to be considered forgivable). Now with a reversal of roles, with the human victim replaced by a simple wild shark and the terrible stereotyped shark replaced by a monstrous human skull seeming to want to devour the shark (this is the reality, we kill thousands of sharks every year, many of them killed for irrational reasons, who is the real cruel killer?)
