“You already in a premier unit!”
Alice was ready to bark back but stop short which also made Eric take pause. Alice wasn't the type to back away from a fight. She reached up and straighten the collar on Eric's uniform.

Haven't been happy with my artwork lately (nothing new, I know) Work has been leaving me a burnt out but I do have a few ideas I want to share and more importantly, I need to get back to commissions.
I have one series of commission I have worked on for a friend but they are not to be posted until my friend/client is ready to use them. I have two other inquiries regarding commissioned work but both parties may drop the request for various reasons.
Other news, Battletech fans can rejoice Shattered Fortress is now available in electronic format as well as two new novels. Shattered Fortress allot of artwork from artist in the DA community including first official piece of BT art. It's always great to see a artist go from fan work to official artist, congrats Bishop!

Inktober- Day 2 Traquail Violence
Haven't sketched a samurai in quit some time. Think my earliest post on DA was cleaned up work from my college days. Though it was past due to draw another swordsman.
I owe thanks to Marcus Ranum aka 
for providing the stock image that allowed me to get the pose right

Inktober, Day 1: 'I need a vacation'
Work is sucking the life out of me but Inktober is upon us and I need to start drawing again.
Not following the official 2018 Prompts, instead I'll be revisiting some of my older work.
Some of you may recognize this image as a recurring theme I return to once in awhile.
