Cliché introductions aside, I go by ❝Heart❞ - As an artist and writer, I enjoy bringing my characters to life in scenes written with others. In addition to portraying my characters through vivid writing, I illustrate them. The pieces showcased here are my creative expression of these characters. The illustrations, and a significant portion of the assets, belong to me, while the rest are exclusively utilized for graphic design purposes.

🔌 Nicolette Friend 🧰

Meet Nicolette Friend, a bubbly, dorky engineer—a ray of light in the dark, dystopian universe of Dead Space. Her story is a twist on the conventional lore. Born in the small mountain town of Peakside Orrosville, Alaska, her parents were scientists who met a grim end, leaving a family friend to come in to raise her. Destined to work at the same facility, little by little she'll uncover her parent's death... and the secret hydron collider project they were so heavily invested in.

⚓ Jodie Colgrave 🐀

Meet Jodie Colgrave, the calm, cool, and collected ❝face❞ of the Rust Rats—a faction of ship-sailing raiders embodying prohibition-styled mobsters under the guise of ❝formal❞ business. Their modus operandi involved strong-arming gun makers into submission, leaving them as sharks of the industry. At one point they owned the island of Raven Creek, but all that shimmers isn't gold, bones left on the beach old and cold.

💀 Carrie Rosenberg 🥀

Carrie Rosenberg is a gothic, monotone teen; _{a survivor of} a senior at Suburbia-City High School. She's not afraid to speak her mind, usually in the form of a biting, cynical observation which, while not initially my own artistic creation, has found new life through my efforts. She originates from the largely overlooked and abandoned video game ❝Monster Madness: Battle For Suburbia❞ (2007), developed by Artificial Studios Inc. Despite her game's past with the studio closing down, I've undertaken the task of resurrecting Carrie and even received the blessing from her original writer to expand upon her narrative. However, my commitment remains to preserving Carrie's essence while breathing new life into her.

🦅 Quinn Stradivari 🎺

In the darkest depths of the 40K universe, there lies a lowly soldier named Quinn Stradivari. As a tank gunner specialist, she's enlisted in the Astra Militarium on the planet Cadia, a fortress world catered to protection from the Eye of Terror—a massive, chaotic warp rift that spews bile and vile akin to a grease trap. At some point in Quinn's service, she disobeyed a direct order from her commanding officer, leaving her to be conscripted as a ❝reject;❞ ne’er-do-well scum meant to redeem themselves in the eye of the Imperium on Tertium, a hive city taken over by the traitorous regiment Moebian 6.

📓 Miscellaneous ✏️

These pieces don't involve my biggest characters. They may be side characters, stuff I've done for friends, or maybe challenges I gave myself to improve upon my rigid standard of graphic design... woe, perfectionism be upon ye.
