#PortfolioDay post cont-d [3/3].

I'm confident I can pull of hybrid orchestra/synth stuff, just never tried it. But I'm open to experiments and trying new stuff!

#PortfolioDay post cont-d [2/3].

If you're a game developer or a filmmaker and yet to find someone to make music for you, I may be your guy!

As you can see and hear, I can do metal/rock, synthwave, ambient and electronic stuff no sweat.

Hey #PortfolioDay! I'm a comicbook colorist AND a musician, so I figured I'd do something different this time [1/3].

Here are a few of my music samples:

You're a grown ass adult trying to "oh I didn't know, but I'm gonna keep the gig" about one of the biggest pieces of shit in the world?

And the idea of "I hope we can all find respect" is fucking nonsense.

If one party flat out pushes for the removal of rights of the trans community, then that party deserves as much respect as the dog shit on the bottom of your shoe.

The thing about claiming ignorance about Rowling's transphobia prior to signing on to work on a Harry Potter project.

Say I believe you didn't know (and for the record, I fucking don't. It's pretty much all she talks about now)

Well, now you DO know.

And you're still taking the money?

It infuriates me that as human-made porn is being increasingly censored across the board, AI porn is not only allowed, but celebrated. And AI porn exists because of stolen content from non-consenting, unpaid human pornographers. It's maddening.

“I still can’t believe how unhinged the last update was. Not only the nudity but the motions, boobs bounces more realistically, it’s incredible.”

Elon Musk's xAI seems to have relaxed filters on Grok's video generation, allowing users to create and share explicit AI pornography.

Comics Writers, when the layout of a space is narratively important you can draw the scenery/setup you want. It can be crude/basic shapes! You can pop that right in the script. We're working in a visual medium, it's helpful even if you think you can't draw (I promise)!

I grew up reading the ‘90’s X-men.. so I really wanted to do this. To add to the ‘90’s vibes, I used Julie Bell and Boris Vallejo’s fleer cards from the ‘94 for some inspiration…

I love every chance to visit the White Ash universe. It reminds me of the soapy, action, lore rich books that first got me hooked on comics. Very honored I got to sneak a piece in to celebrate the collection 💚 -

UK comic making pals, if you’ve got a Kickstarter running (or one coming up), there’s currently a Canada postal strike & Royal Mail’s paused shipping there. Evri’s fine for small parcels, but floppies might face delays until the strike is over, might wanna update your backers👍

Speaking of. I don't remember who recommended them to me, but may them have a good one, cuz Carbon Based Lifeforms is soooooooo good! I love every track of theirs, and the World Of Sleepers album sends me straight to the space, making me feel like a living energy.

I think if you're making music and use synths, you either start with or end up making ambient. Maybe just once, maybe more. Or at least use some ambient elements in your music.
