Thanks for being patient with me as I circle the wagons on the future of Ronin Digital Express.

I’m working on a different project now that’s stealing most of my attention (make sure you’re subscribed to my newsletter to follow that, and everything else).
But, I’m going to publish some Ronin Digital Express backmatter / appendix material here over the next year or so until I have announcements about future chapters of Ronin Digital Express.
I hope you’ll stay tuned for it. Ronin Digital Express is an important part of my work and isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
I’m exploring different formats and outlining arcs right now, and unfortunately, that sort of thing just takes time.
Until then, I hope you enjoy these extras, starting with some developmental / pinup art I’ve created over the years as Ronin Digital Express was coming to life.
Early sketch of the protagonist
Early promo pinup
Early promo IG card
Early promo IG card. Always kind of liked this one.
My favorite of the promo images, featuring one of several characters from earlier drafts I didn’t get to include.
This was almost the cover for the series. I still like it, but passed because it felt a little too good-mannered.
Series thumbnail. Thinking about making this a sticker. You want?
A “house ad” pulled from 01: ‘Nashi’ to promote the move to Substack. I wanted to give an early look at the updated art.
I was thinking about doing a spin-off about this character Tango, a rival/lover of the Green-Eyed Ronin. I decided I’d bit off more than I could chew and was getting distracted from the main series, but I do like the character, so we may yet see her eventually. Also, yep I see “Webtooon” now.
Another Tango
Another Tango (I really like drawing Tango)
A Christmas card I made featuring GER and one of his primary influences, Toshiro Mifune. I thought about doing one every year, but I keep forgetting.
