Take Me To Your Dealer

One of my favorite little cartoons, this was originally in black and white for my short story magazine. The year it was made, however, is the year that marijuana was legalized in Canada, which made the joke a little less … Continue reading →

The Ace of Spies

Jacob — Tue, 21 May 2024 23:04:01 +0000

He’s the inspiration for James Bond. His name was Sydney Riley, also known as the Ace of Spies. After a failed attempt to kill Lenin, he becomes enemy #1 of the communists. He’s one of the characters for the Fontaine Mysteries.

Old Vehicle Studies

For the series “The Fontaine Mysteries”, I did a number of studies for vehicles of the 1920’s.

King Phillip II of Macedon

Before there was Alexander the Great, there was the legendary king who subdued all the Greeks (except the Spartans) and created the Hegemon! Could there be a cooler character for a video game?

A Bird Called Poe

Poe is curious, independent, and very protective of Fontaine. He is not so much of a pet as he is a loyal and helpful companion.

Alexander Artwork (More)

A couple of designs for the “Shining Force” inspired game I call “Alexander”, which is a historical fiction story focusing on the exploits of Alexander the Great.

Sci-Fi Series Artwork

Sometimes, when you want to write a story, you have a character in mind even before the story is completely written. In this case, I haven’t even picked her name yet, and still I know everything about her. She is sexy, strong, but a little cold. She is missing an arm, the result of a war injury. She’s the captain of her own vessel, crewed by a ragtag team of misfits that just try and survive in a cruel Universe.

Alexander (Game) Artwork

Jacob — Thu, 09 May 2024 13:39:56 +0000

Over a decade ago, I had an idea for a video game. If you’ve ever played old school tactical RPG’s, then you might be familiar with a series called “Shining Force”. This charming little game was my introduction to the genre, and thanks to the power of nostalgia, I’ve always dreamed of making the ultimate tribute game.

I tend to also be a big fan of historical fiction. In my opinion, there’s no easier way to write compelling stories than by borrowing from the past. There are certain lives that stand out, and few are as remarkable as the subject of my story, Alexander the Great.

I’ll be posting more artwork in the coming days for this project. Be sure to check out the dedicated page on the site if you’d like more information.

Bible Stories: Genesis Postcard

Jacob — Tue, 09 Sep 2014 02:06:52 +0000

Here’s a sneak peak at the latest postcard I’ve been working on. It’ll function as a ‘voucher’ for the e-book version of the book. Kinda feels more like a poster to me, doesn’t it?

Telethon “Bible Stories” Postcard

Jacob — Mon, 11 Nov 2013 18:12:17 +0000

A number of years ago, I did a series of postcard ads for an event held by my ex called “Light and Motion”. These ended up being extremely popular and even leading to a bunch of pop-ins despite a pretty limited run. So, when it came time to think of some marketing strategies, I decided not to try and re-invent the wheel, and go with what worked: attractive cartoons on glossy construction paper.

I plan on making a whole series of these for the highlights of the Bible. This one is Exodus, but I plan on making some for Genesis, Kings, Judges, and all the crazy stories that are too ludicrous to believe. If that maniac Jack Chick can distribute a billion of his vile comics, surely we can try for a few hundred at least.
