Black Magic

Dagon emerging from the shadows and looking angry with black goo dripping off his beak.

Dagon after the cave collapse. Update to a sketch from 4-29-2019. Originally I was focused on the lighting but I wanted to go back and fix some other stuff. His horns were totally the wrong shape.

Comic Test Panel – 2026 Update

Posted on 01/30/2026 by blackmagicnuma

smiling Ben standing below the edge of a Metro platform, saying "You can come with me."

I started messing with this and it turned into a lighting test for this scene. The first time I drew this panel… was NINE YEARS AGO. D:

I did not even try to draw his hair back then. Very little character design either. I was struggling hard enough just to make his face look like a face.

I think I opened this file a few days ago intending to fix Lex’s arm. From there things got out of hand, as they do. Painting on the cintiq is so easy it makes me feel like an anime character who just revealed I was fighting with weights on my arms until now. Ben is as tall as Ella because he’s standing on a box. Have some bonus Me Posing As Lex.
