everything is not trash!!!!! many things are beautiful!!!!! trash is easier to lie in your path and trip over and beautiful things have to be reached for but they're still there

this happened to me

i would be so responsible with a million dollars

they never teach ya courage in any art class that's the part you have to do yourself

checking things on my website and i just start reading the fucking comic like "damn what happens next" bitch you drew it.

the crawler from annihilation would be like a haunted woods npc in neopets with an unimpressive daily that probably isn't worth the NP

realistically if this happened i’d just turn off all notifications and only log on to update my art projects and never see replies or fanart again. which might well be the trajectory i’m already on long term but it’d still be sad to do it prematurely i think

said it before and i’ll say it again: thank god for small, thoughtful audiences. may i never have to deal with what happens when you blow up enough to earn a true fandom. wish it wasn’t so; it sucks that aspiring to widespread success comes with that negative aspect.

nothing to do with anything i just like tsundere school building arc

species reversed chloe and pepper

btw this is one frustrating element of the current state of animation "pilots." i understand the practical reasons it needs to be this way, but nothing is allowed to start small with a little spark that grows anymore. everything has to prove itself by being perfect and getting 20M views off the bat

love when they call shit "garden vegetables." as opposed to ocean ones i guess

i could expand upon this but it would sound too mean about something that ultimately doesn't matter so i will simply say this very cryptic phrase: i am bored with sinkdog gentrification

anyway #600 will fall on the comic's six year anniversary as per usual june 12 the holy 6/12 which is like my second birthday so please make your celebratory preparations now

speaking of cute little guys, i missed most of icy's stream both yesterday and today because of life events that required my warm body present but godddd everyone making my characters in this game really tempts me to buy it and do the same myself

i know it's closer to how tezuka drew him but... blue-fur unico is simply not as good as white-fur unico... to Me

hmm it makes sense why so many stories put a wide-eyed ingénue so purehearted they never do anything wrong even unintentionally into the protagonist slot. makes things a lot less complicated on both the audience and artist in a lot of ways

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i love the moment when people realize achilles color scheme is black and blue and then look at me reproachfully, realizing theyve been the victim of a bad visual pun this whole entire time

anyway. forget all that. i bet whatever non-pattycake shit that goes down between toons in that universe is crazy. roger and jessica were probably getting out the jackhammers and anvils on each other. no that’s too obvious it was more insane than that for sure

good every single time

saw someone post their fake chapter titles for their comic and laughed because i also do that in my head. there's achillesquest, boys' night, no one expects the money laundering arc, chloe's terrible horrible no good very bad day, and some others that i shall keep to myself

sometimes i feel so worried about cheating space/shapes/angles even though THAT'S WHAT CARTOONS ARE FOR that i go watch disney scenes and find their cheats until i feel better. shot 1 bambi you could NOT take 4-5 steps backwards and fall in the water there is no room!!! (extremely happy about this)

having to make another fucking drawing of a tree

this is the wettest picture anyone has ever drawn

always find it funny when people say you can tell what an artist is really interested in by what they render the most or whatever. idk im not INTERESTED in drapery (or trees or glass or water or whatever) i just have an inexplicable demon inside of me that forces me to do this

btw, one of the best things about watching the film adaptation of Annihilation was it led me to this video. i think all consumers of media should watch this video. you don't have to have watched Annihilation to get the message i think though it does contain spoilers www.youtube.com/watch?v=URo6...

anyway too much keeps happening to distract me from the books i’m trying to read. very close to decimating Authority. in lieu of anything smart i’d like to say that the govt-appointed spy director of the Southern Reach having a cat named El Chorizo that he calls Chorry Chorrykins is gap moe of him

i think a good full time job for me would be if some mysterious entity paid me to draw chloe and clair like those classic CLAMP illustrations all day

editorializing on my thumbnails lately

as someone who loves animation with all my heart, enough to pursue the borderline crazy choice of making it my career: i’m actually pretty sick of everyone always acting like the final form of any idea should be animation. sometimes a comic or prose or illustration series is already in its best form

all i want is to live in enough peace to make art and for everyone else to live in enough peace to enjoy art

fucked up and gave myself an accidental gnarly steam burn right after midnight so great 1st bday present to me from me

had this on my comic playlist as a chloe clair song but now that im doing this mars pepper scene i feel like it could be that too... it's so fun to find songs where lyrics are flexible enough to fit a lot of situations while still being pointed enough to resonate youtu.be/ai75GHqbn64?...

im so glad it's her arc because i love her so much

i love my big beautiful brain and i love thinking with it. i wish i could take it out for a second and give it a little kiss right on the squishy pink noodle

this was in my 2023 sketch file and idk what it means

the leg situation is

mar

tiny thumbail for 487 in my sketchbook lol

pony baseball

from when i was trying to decide how to draw rained-on stuff

it's time to get traditional media pilled again. it's time to touch paper

you are like a little insect
