Got a modifier code for kickstarting Mina the Hollower that changes in-game stuff which I can apparently share with people! (Yes me and the missus are known as Mack and Chi, we are one of those terrible adorable couples.) So if you want a code for Mack n Chi's Mina modifiers hit me up!

Absolutely nobody is gonna guess the thing I'm doing with two penguins and cannot wait to reveal it soon.

The last day of the month is Zineday in this house! Comics and commissions and doodles and sketches aplenty! And a secret announcement of a project where I draw not one, but TWO penguins? Oh the intrigue! Find out more at Patreon.com/RikDraws!

Itching to do something. If anyone has any comic stuff they need doing hit me up. Fancy having a dork on your podcast? I'm about! I dunno why I'm antsy, I didn't even get that much sleep last night!

Lookit that gorgeous cover! Also I think #51 and #52 were my first appearance on IDW Sonic so check it out! And if you ever manage to track down my cryptid self (challenge level: impossible) I'll even sign it for you and ruin your copy cuz I'm nice like that! Maybe I should set up a web shop...

If Fleetway's Sonic the Comic was still running this would 1000% have already been a story. And it would have been glorious.

Gang, I have to announce. I've finally moved in. I am however, still unpacking.

I have not been able to say 'besides the point' for the past 26 years.

Still got samples up on my portfolio from 2020, oh wow I need to do some new stuff!

I'm glad they kept the secrets and alternate routes. #starfox

End of the month means it's Zineday once again! A bumper issue this month, full of sketches and comics and doodles and stuff. Catch it over at patreon.com/rikdraws and let me know what you think! I'm looking to improve it so feedback is always welcomed!

As the inker for Endless Fantasia (without tooting my own horn too much) I think I'm doin some of my best work on it! It's very cool to see it all come together and be a part of the team on such a fun project!

I would just like to thank Paul and Dark Horse for bringing back Concrete on my birthday. :)

Psst! If any of the editors of the Sonic The Comic Wiki are out there, you should totally add the 900th squad to the wiki, because it contains a 6 pager written by Nigel and Rich did a cover! And the IDWers are StC-O alumni! It's totally an StC story at heart ;)

I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

I love seeing good people win. Especially when I know how hard they've worked to achieve their goals and they deserve it. So many people doing cool stuff out there and I hope they get to keep doin it. Gives me energy. And we all need wins right now.

Poured all my love for those classic Harmony artworks (as seen in Sonic the Screensaver etc) into this one! Hope you enjoy!

Can't believe Marvel are already doing an MCU arc where everyone leaves the company and founds Image so they have some control over their careers. They're really faithfully adapting what happened with the comics!

Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Rik, I do stuff on comics! Whatever you need to keep a book on track and shipped in time. Inks, colours, covers, letters! I've worked on a bunch of stuff, Sonic, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Ladybug, Felix the Cat, etc! Let me know what I can do for you! 🎨http://RikDraws.com

It's the FINAL countdown. #MakeSongTitlesVaguelyThreatening

ITS SO GORGEOUS! AND IT HAS FISH AND LADDERS IN IT! RIP RotTMNT you were too beautiful for this world.

Who wants to see if they can be the backer that cinches the win and gets the project across the finish line? It's so close to the mark it could be you and think of the bragging rights!

Mentioned today how cold it was out and a line popped into my head "Cooler than a snowman's cold bits". Always liked that line, looked it up and it's from a Polos advert starring Danny John-Jules. Basically playing the Cat from Red Dwarf, as a mint. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IB7H...

I think I REALLY gotta shake this self deprecation vibe. I know I play it off as intrinsically british - as a sense of identity (which it be fair it kinda is) but I can't help but wonder if I might have more success if I stop tripping myself up at the starting line.

This morning, NASA sent up a message recorded by Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell before his death:

Watching the Lunar flyby- Wait, Nasa's Capsule Communicator is called what? @capcomusa.com (are they rescuing Volnutt?) #MegaManStarForce #StarForce #Capcom #moon #moonshaunted #omegaxis #warrock #流星のロックマン #ウォーロック

Cosmic rays have the chance to do the funniest thing right now.

I'm in this picture and I like it.

#AskAnArtist: What was your first drawing tablet? I think my first was a tiny Graphire3 but my second was a used Intuos3 back in like 2005 or something. I'm pretty sure it still works now but the moment I could draw directly on the screen I jumped ship to a Cintiq. It was a gamechanger!

30 years later: Super Sonic is still cool, there's just been a new Chaotix crew (audio) story, Gex just had a new (retro collection) release, now we just need a new Wipeout!

Star...Fox? Thunder...Birds? It's more likely than you think. Make them thunderbirdy again and puppets and make comics of them as puppets and let me work on it.

Eight years already? That has FLOWN by! Wow. Good job gang.

Describe your bluesky account in a single image.

About time Animorphs got a new TV show. I hope it doesn't shy away from what made the source material so good. And by that of course I mean super strong dog robots that have a giant spaceship that looks like snoopy. Oh the the kids, animals and aliens too, I guess.

Hate to start my day off with such a negative post but seeing people rip off designs and then uneducated 'fans' go harassing the original indie creators is just so frustraing to see. I know they're probably kids but at a certain point the ignorance is wilful and that behaviour shouldn't be tolerated

TPoH is a great comic, Mod is a wonderful creator and makes fantastic comics you should check out. I'd never heard of #smg4 until this and seeing the behaviour of some of their 'fans' I don't think I'll look into the series further. Hbomberguy plagarism update vid including this when?

Just a heads up not to announce anything cool today because y'know April Fools day and all that. Also don't believe anything today either. Except for this, obviously.

It's the last day of the month aka ZINEDAY! So this month's Mackazine is available over at patreon.com/rikdraws. $3 a pop for a zine of art and doodles and comics and other fun stuff because I do stuff every month and I'd like to keep my lights on, even a cryptid out in the woods has bills to pay!

Smash planet destroying robots, wreck polluting factories, stop evil dudes from going into space and make sure emeralds stay out of their hands. Good life lessons.

Every now and then I forget I can just... make things. Like there wasn't a thing there before, and now there is. And I did that. It's a good feeling.

Finally after all this time! Badnik Sonic from Fleetway's Sonic the Comic gets his moment to shine! Wait, Neo who-now?

Intro to Ring the Raccoon, aka 'Rik's Self indulgent Sonic OC posting containment thread''.

It is surprisingly tricky trying to play videogames with your face.

Happy Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection day everbody! I mean it will be as soon as this Sonic CrossWorlds Festival is over...

Seeing all the posts about TCAF, is it that time of the year already? I hope you all have a grand ol time. I'll be sitting here out in the woods being jealous of you all. Sometimes being a cryptid sucks.
