10 Hour Comic
Dearest sirs or madams,
Please allow me to apologize in advance for both the quality and
content of this comic. You see, it occupied but 10 hours of my time
and progressed at a rate of 1 page per hour. You will find more
information on that particular subject just before the comic, should
you decide to follow this link.

24 Hour Comic
Herein you'll find my first completed 24-hour comic. As with the 10-hour
comic, it was done at a rate of 1 page per hour. Regardless, I was somewhat
able to keep a small degree of quality within these pages. I hope you enjoy it
as much as my tinsel-constructed elf friend does.

24 Hour Comic - White Rose
This is my second completed 24-hour comic and I think it's a nice mark of
progress since my previous one. This is a story of White and Rose, two sisters
who really ought to just get along.

Addiction
This is a short done back in March of 2008 over the course of a weekend.
It was made as a birthday present for a special someone who I think
may have appreciated it for some reason.

A Few Things You Should Know
Herein you'll find a short 7-page comic written by friend/fellow slave Christopher Martin and
drawn by yours truly. This is our first collaboration project but not our last, and I'm surprised
with how much I ended up liking the whole thing.

Daily Comics
This was an experiment to try to force myself to draw something every day.
Many of these were done over a lunch break or during dinner. Occasionally I would
have plans for the evening and have to draw them while at a social event. But I
did manage to draw one for every day and fill my sketch book up that way, so hooray.

Drawn People
These drawings have been done intermittently over the years. Most of them
are based on photo reference and created as gifts. As much as I like the look
of them, I don't find them terribly creative and so my favorite ones are
heavily stylized.
-James Grimlee
Misc
This category serves as a catch-all for anything that doesn't qualify for
its own category. As a result, you'll find drawings in here from wildly
different dates, in different styles, and of differing quality. Honestly
I cannot quite remember everything I've thrown in here, so good luck if
you decide to go exploring.

Other Side - Part 1
Done over 2004-2005, this marks one of my few completed projects. Well,
partially complete really. There are three parts planned for this comic and
I've only begun to rekindle an interest in working on a second part so far.
You'll see a lot of me playing around with styles, experimenting, and
learning in these pages. There's also a lot of crap, but it's mine, and so
I have a soft spot for it. Overall, I'm still rather proud of this one.
-James Grimlee
Other Side - Part 2
Completed back in 2009, this is the second part of my planned trilogy for OtherSide.
It's the middle child of the series. As with much of my work, there's a lot of frames I
love to pieces and a lot that I am ashamed to have on view. Regardless, it continues the
story along and moves us towards the third part, which will be coming along eventually...

Ruin
This marks my first experimentation with some vector graphics. It also
shows my tendency for black/white/red and begins to settle into my current
style. Also, there are briefly zombies involved. It's currently unfinished,
and I do hope to return to working on it since it is meant to be short and
sweet.

UndeadPortraits
Once I ran into writer's block for content on my daily comics, but still
had space in my sketch book to fill, I started doing one-shot drawings themed
around skeletons. These were the results.

Versed
This one is being created on an iPad(mostly). So far it only brings
slight amounts of shame and great amounts of freedom since I can work on
pages for it nearly to completion just about anywhere I go. Also it's
a little tricky to learn to draw on an iPad. Oh and it's about things and
stuff. And junk. You'll see.
