Timeline Zero
(2021)

Comic || Book

The adventures of the Servasi Crusaders left me with an open wound in my chest, and I felt I needed to begin another story, another adventure to tell, and to be a part of. Timeline Zero is an entirely original book inspired by the adventures of the Servasi Crusaders, rebirthing the main characters, and creating a whole cast of original characters to act as their allies, enemies, and bystanders. Join the main cast as they begin their journeys on opposite ends of the world, and find their way towards each other: whether by fate, or by coincidence, shall remain to be seen.

Servasi Crusaders

(2020)

Challenge (50 Days)

While involved in summer classes, I pursued a personal project during the summer of 2020. I spent 50 days (June 12, 2020 - August 1, 2020) drawing as much as I could everyday, and then compiled the result into an animated sequence on Day 50. The art was inspired by the Stardust Crusaders Arc of Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, but the characters are original and the encounters bent to fit a new version of the Jojo universe.

Level Zero (2018-2019)

Story Board (Video Game Concept)

More recently, I decided to focus on the visual art aspects of story telling and attempted to create a story board for an original idea I had developed over the years alongside Down the Path. Level Zero begins with two main, playable characters who can both be controlled in a multiplayer experience. The actions of both affect the world around them as you follow a young boy and girl through a post-apocalyptic realm filmed with humans and creatures with one very distinct difference between them: the color of their eyes. Within its chaotic past, the realm had housed seven kingdoms for seven different colors, all of which had eventually joined a devastating war which had spelled the end of times; but the colors prevailed in the end. In a future no longer dictated by color, it is the protagonist's choice to restore white by creating relations between all of the colors, summon black by destroying every single color and finishing the job of past terrorists wishing to eradicate color itself, or settling for gray, an unsatisfying mix which leaves the color scheme gray and depressing.

Down the Path (2017)

Illustrated Book

Over the course of several years, I worked on a separate project where I could explore both the written and artistic medium simultaneously. Inspired by horror games, specifically Silent Hill and Dead by Daylight, Down the Path follows multiple characters in their quest to traverse the dangerous world of In-Between, a realm suspended between life and death, filled with demons of the past, and the shadows of the future. The book is currently in the editing stage.
