Hello, my name is David (DPO),
and I'm a doodle addict. Texas, USA

I am just another amateur artist inspired by 80s & 90s games, movies, comics, & cartoons. I would like to start my own digital web comics someday because I enjoy drawing but I fear I wouldn’t have any followers to support my art. There is NO ai art here, nor ai inspired works. Everything is roughly sketched by hand first and inked by hand with cleaner lines on a new layer. I do use a stabilizer setting to prevent wobbly lines on the iPads slippery glass (both in Ibis Paint or Magma). If you would like to reach out to me for any reason, try doodle addicts first. Just leave a comment under my latest upload and I'll most likely see it.

I specialize in cartoons, digital art, doodling, drawing, gaming, illustration, mario maker 2, pen and ink, tetris.

A collection of ballpoint pen sketches scanned

A collection of ballpoint pen sketches drawn on computer paper & scanned - This is what my lines look like when I'm not using a stabilizer in digital software to get the nicest clean lines. I tried to separate my scanned lines from the various shades of off-white that the scanner picked up. I adjusted the brightness and contrast levels in photoshop but I'm not very knowledgable on how to achieve the best results. I provided a link to a much higher resolution as well as a preview of my setup. I made this custom art easel to sit on the armrests of my recliner.

Plants vs Zombies fanart - This was an old piece I drew during a live stream on magma.com a few years ago. I got around to finishing it last night in ibisPaint and then made some color adjustments in Photoshop. I stink at coloring in my opinion and I usually don't color my line drawings because I get a little bit antsy staying in the lines. The following characters I drew are: The Tree is named Mourning Wood - which is a mini-boss from the game Terraria, the sunflower is from Conker's Bad Fur Day, The Piranha Plant is a recurring enemy in the Super Mario franchise, Peashooter and Puff-shroom are from Plants vs. Zombies, Ivysaur from Pokemon, Water Lily Siren from Shantae, the toon witch Samantha from the tv show Bewitched (intro), and Godzilla.

Collection of unfinished doodles - The Brachiosaurus (from Joe & Mac) in the center was drawn tonight. The rest were drawn over the past few years and stored away in a folder because they are all unfinished. Everything was drawn digitally on magma.com with an iPad Pro. Other characters included are: The girl from stellar blade on right side (whatever her name is), Amy Rose, Chakan the Forever Man (bottom center), Toad & Bowsette, the Giga Mermaid (from Shantae), and Sonic the hedgehog - looking ridiculous because he is fun to draw as Sanic. Everything else is from imagination.

I'm pretty sure I drew this in 2023 if I'm not mistaken. It was for a Christmas art contest at magma.com and drawn directly on their website using an iPad pro. And well although I met all the requirements I still didn't place in the top four. The rules stated that we had to pair up with another member from the website art community to draw a Christmas themed picture relating to anything from our childhood. What you see is only half the picture. My project-partner Andy added his portion to the collaboration, but I removed his pen strokes just for my website. That's why on the right side of the picture the Christmas tree and edge appear unfinished. This image is huge, like 5000 pixels. This website will resize the image losing details, but if you would like to zoom-in to a higher resolution, try this link to get a closer look.

I think I drew this sometime last year 2025 - I just never bothered to upload it. Most of it was sketched on Magma.com and part of the inking process was finished in Ibis Paint, with only minor adjustments in photoshop. I do all my digital inking on an iPad pro, and I use those hollow aluminum capacitive styluses that you can get very cheap just about anywhere. I prefer them over the apple pencil because the apple pencil is too slippery and heavy. More uploads coming soon...

Dizzie the Cat - my OG sonic fan-character

I Haven’t drawn anything in a long time because I feel like Ai has devalued artists and my stuff was never popular anyways. I don’t know what possessed me to draw this last night. But remember back in the day when people drew their own Sonic fan characters on deviant art? Well I finally gave in and created my own.

[Hades (the game) 2024] - This would be considered fanart if I was a fan but I have never played the game. I realize there is no Hades 3, this is just for pretend-fun. Since I don't know the story and characters of the game I decided to make up three of my own. [Sketched & inked everything using an ipad pro & magma software, drawn live, no ai.]

B.O.B. (snes) fan-art This is just some Bob fan-art drawn on magma (dot) com using an ipad pro. B.o.b is a run and gun game on SNES that came out in 1993. I remember my next door neighbor owned this game on super nintendo but it seemed difficult and did not leave a good impression. The music is printed on my brain but I don’t recommend giving the game a try. The box art was my only reference.

Been in the mood to draw simple cartoons characters lately. Of course I don’t like to copy the original artist’s style. I prefer to change it up a little. Half of this was drawn on magma(dot)com, the other half was drawn in ibis paint (ipad pro).

late night drawing online at magma(dot)com - using ipad pro. These characters grew on me when playing against a friend on steam.

Doodle of the day is super mario characters in the low polygon angular style from the nintendo 64. Drawn on magma.com with an iPad Pro

Woodland Creatures was the theme on Magma.com today. I decided to go with a turtle but I have to say I'm not very happy with the way this turned out. Hopefully better results next time...

Joe & Mac - Large Carnivorous plant boss

I drew this back in October as part of a live Magma session at Magma.com - Drawn on Ipad Pro. I can't remember what the theme was. Maybe Halloween? I don't remember but whatever it was I was in the mood for drawing Joe and Mac (caveman ninja). No tracing, no pressure sensitivity and no Ai.

Drew this picture during the #inktober event for an individual artspace on magma.com (the word prompt to draw was "remove" for day 26). I came up with the idea to draw a RPG warrior battling a giant mosquito during his adventure. He is using off spray to remove the enemy from this path (but he took damage and later is removing a Band-Aid from his arm). Drawn directly on magma.com live using an iPad pro (no pressure sensitivity and no Ai).

Some recent dinosaur doodles inspired by the game Joe & Mac (caveman ninja) for snes/arcade. Drawn online at Magma.com using ipad pro (no Ai and no pressure sensitivity).

This doodle of Cammy from Street Fighter the video game was drawn live online. Later I went back to the canvas and added a simple background matching a random stage from the game. I drew this on magma.com with an iPad Pro (no Ai & no pressure sensitivity).

The Magma clubhouse theme was Canine Camerman. I attended late after the live stream was over, but this was my take on the theme. I drew this at Magma.com with an iPad Pro. (no Ai, and no pressure sensitivity). Thanks for looking

Drawn by me online at magma.com using ipad pro (no pressure sensitivity and no Ai).

Someone I met on the magma server likes ducks and zelda so I decided to draw a picture for him. Drawn online/live 2023 on magma.com with iPad pro (no pressure sensitivity and no Ai).

I tried getting some ideas on duckduckgo images for a theme on magma.com that was titled Mythological Creatures. Drawn online/live at magma.com using an iPad Pro (no pressure sensitivity and no Ai).
