Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, @idwpublishing.com Exclusive Cover (Foil) by @rikdraws.com #IDWSonic

That's right racers! You're able to get a Foil Tangle (+ Friends) right now over at the IDW store! I just got flash-banged seeing my own name in an email solicit. I am stunned, flabbergasted and honored. idwpublishing.com/products/son...

THEY MADE MY COVER A FOIL AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I am dancing around the room right now FOIL FOIL FOIL

Packing to move instead of playing the CrossWorlds Festival going on right now and my old Whisper stickers are mocking me.

Just a reminder that this is the official Rik approved Tanglemobile! (this is a joke, please decorate your Tanglemobile responsibly, and not like this garish abomination) but most importantly, have fun racing this festival!

I better see some of you Tangles out there in Sonic CrossWorlds rockin the Motobug car, just sayin.

And I helped™

Your last saved pic of a celebrity is your therapist. Okay but this is actually kinda perfect?

HIYA!

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link Link's Awakening (OG or DX are both good) The rest all tie for 3rd place (except Twilight Princess which fails to chart)

Big day for the UK. A new Red Dwarf novel AND the Eighth Doctor's movie getting a 4k release!

Of nowhere last night/this morning I got the urge to make pancakes for breakfast. I've not lived in the UK for nigh on 15 years at this point and had totally forgot that it was pancake day. But my brain didn't. I only realized now when I saw people mention it was pancake tuesday! #BoringLifeStories

True coolness wasn't inside you all along, it was totally in the shades this whole time!

What do you mean David Hasslehoff made a Pingu Rap? How did I not know about this?

Happy Tangle and Whisper Day to those who celebrate! I don't have anything new but here is a smattering of fanart I did when they first got introduced!

Throwback thursday (on a friday) to when I drew this back in- wait, what. 2020?! That can't be right...

Apropos of nothing; here's a song for you all. From the Emissary himself, Avery Brooks. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekjY...

Moving North next month, Further into the Polar Vortex which I think is a pretty good name for a prog rock concept album.

Five jobs I’ve had: 🍺 Bartender 🕷️ Comic Store Manager 🏥 Medical Clinics OS Tech Support 🍄 Nintendo Brand Ambassador ✏️Children's Book Illustrator

pretty much exactly how I've been treating it yea, checks out

Try making comics without any dialogue. If you can tell a story from point A to point B to point C without any verbal explanation of how you got there, you’re way ahead of the curve. We work in a VISUAL medium.

I fell short of 100 but I think 95 isn't too shabby a score! (I'm not even gonna be salty about Rovio/Atlus games being on here!)

such a lovely thing to think about

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?

Been a while since I saw a film as satisfying to watch as Rental Family (2025). Great script, solid cast, lovely cinematography. And Brendan Fraser plays a Dreamcast. 10/10, no notes.

Just a quick (and late) New Year's Message from... me?

This Sonic car decorating game is pretty fun.

Been rewatching 12th Doctor episodes and can I put in a formal request with the universe to have Peter Capaldi play Don Quixote?

Found a place that does good journals, bullet, planners notepads etc. Currently having choice paralysis at all the potential avenues. I know I go too wild I'll buy like 4 and never use them but as soon as I buy one I'll know I want more. Agh!

What a lovely way to 'Ring' in the new year!

I like Alt Texts, I get to hide all kinds of blather in there to amuse myself. Like hiding jokes in plain sight. DVD extras only gags kinda content. S'fun.

2025 has been a bit of a big year for me! Got my first Sonic cover, my second TMNT cover released, got my first book deal(!), blew out both my wrists for a few months, had to go looking for a new place to live, put out my first short 5 pager comic (in the Spark-Flame.com zine) A lot happened!

Goodnight 2025! #artvsartist2025 #artvsartist

It's the last day of the month and you- wait, it's the last day of the YEAR, and that means the last Mackazine of 2025 is here! And it's a fun one (but I would say that wouldn't I?) Full of sketches and doodles and stuff I worked on. I worked my butt off this month and I hope ya dig it!

Share a cartoon you will always love

Streets of Rage 4 soundtrack so good.

My first time tabling at the UK Web and Mini Comix Thing (forget the year, between 04-08 maybe) saw a dude carrying a ton of stuff and having a time of it coming up behind me, held the door for him/helped carry some stuff to his table. It turned out to be Weebl!
