When it came time to come up with something for Earth Day, I wanted to make something different. Something more emotionally sincere compared to the More community town of the other comics. As such, I wrote this poem detailing how the Earth and life as a whole is a gift and how our actions and how our limited lifetimes will determine what becomes of it. The visuals were also given major touchups to help reflect this too.

Mini comics - Easter

Before the day is over, here’s another holiday comic I made in commemoration of Easter Sunday. The Easter bunny really had her work cut out for herself last night. Written and drawn by me

Since the last holiday themed comic turned out so well, I went and made another one to commemorate St. Patrick’s Day. I made this last week to give it a little extra time to get it ready. Once again, fully written and drawn by me.

So it’s Valentine’s Day, where love is in the air. The perfect occasion to spend showing that one person in your life how much they mean to you. Of course, I don’t have any sort of romantic ties myself, so I went and made this mini comic you see above here. Originally posted on Valentine’s Day in 2023, here is a mini comic I created as a way to commemorate the holiday occasion. Fully written, Storyboarded, inked, and colored by me.

A dishware duo

Since season 3 or part three (or however you like to call it) of the Cuphead show had dropped today, I figured it’d be a fitting occasion to put this out as well. I made this sometime back in August of this year, wanting to take a crack at Cuphead and mugman here. I kinda feel like more could have been done for this, but as far as simple pictures go, it’s alright for what it is.

A silver lining

I made this earlier this year. I was looking to experiment with contrast and see how to make something standout against a similarly blended background. I choose ori from the ori game series to test with this, and I actually surprised myself at just how stylish this came out in the end.

Nuts for this time of year

I’m a week late, but I made this many months ago and thought this would be perfectly fitting to commemorate the first day of fall. Aka autumn. Aka, the best time of year. What with the cooler days and breeze’s outside, the lovely array of red, orange, and yellow foliage in the leaves of trees, plants, and grass, the delicious, arguably over saturation of pumpkin spice and Apple cider, and even the anticipation of the holiday season with Halloween and thanksgiving, as the eventual lead into Christmas. I made the background first, and figured I put Mario in just as the cherry on top with his super acorn power up and suit from new super Mario bros U.

Color the universe

I made this back in late December/early January after playing through Sonic colors ultimate on Xbox. A personal favorite of mine tied with unleashed. I figured it’d be fitting to put this out today since the sonic movie 2 also released today. As the name suggests. I really aimed to make the space background detailed, bright and vibrant as possible.

Fire and water

here’s a picture featuring Fire boy and Water Girl from the game series on CoolMath games. I recall seeing them a few times on the site, but never actually played the any of the games. I forgot all about them until I saw a compilation of art featuring them a few days ago and thought it would be fun to try and draw them here. Plus, It was the perfect excuse to experiment a bit with fire and water special effects.

Legally Insane-Y

Sorry I missed posting here last week. I was busy with a ton of personal matters IRL as well as work on a personal project I’m looking to try and start up. But that aside, here’s Yakko, Wakko, and Dot. The Warner siblings from Animaniacs. I’ve never actually seen the OG show or the Hulu reboot, but considering how popular they seem to be online, I thought it would be neat to try to take a crack at them. Of course I had to revise this a few times before feeling comfortable with the final results here (the perspective shot and character base coloring nearly through me off), but I’m happy they came out just right now.

Addendum to my last crash post: so sometime in August 2021, I was given an xbox one s from a a relative of a friend of mine, and then in December, I finally got crash 4 for Christmas. Love the game so far, but after the first two level, I'm not going to bother trying to go for all the gems like I did in crash 3 and wrath of cortex. It's already difficult just trying to progress the game normally.

Flying High

New drawing for the week! I really have a soft spot for the Kirby series (I've got all the games in the 20th anniversary collection and return to dreamland on Wii, Triple Deluxe and Blowout blast on 3DS, and I just managed to pick up Planet Robobot for my New 2DS XL just today) and for the longest time, I’ve wanted to draw something Kirby related but felt I couldn't get the look just right. He's just a simple puffball, yes. but style can really make a difference. Thankfully, I finally got the chance to make this here and honestly, I think I'm satisfied with the results. Wish I could have done something like this a while back, but better late than never.

Awake (buttercup challenge)

Here’s buttercup from the Powerpuff girls getting up for the day. I made this a while back when the “buttercup challenge was trending”. No idea why it was in the first place, but I couldn’t be bothered to figure why. I just wanted to throw my hat into the ring with this.

Her and that doggone rock

And we’re back. I plan on making things active on here by posting one new pic every Friday from now through April. To kick things off, here’s a picture featuring Zoe fauning over her pet rock, Rocco. Meanwhile, Elmo is over next to her just slowly going insane over her constant insistence that Rocco is alive despite his many claims otherwise. Just internally monologuing to himself, “Elmo has 99 problems. And Rocco is all of them”.

I made this a couple of months back and wanted to make sure this was out just in time for it. cheers to twenty years of fairly odd magical mayhem from my absolute favorite nicktoon, the Fairly Oddparents. withstanding ten whole seasons over sixteen years. Now presumably set to return in the form of a live action series for Paramount +. A surprising announcement, but I think they can make it work. they have dabbled in live action before with a whole TV movie trilogy, so I don’t see the harm in it. whatever happens next, I’ll be more than happy to see what new stories they can tell with Timmy, Cosmo, Wanda and the others. Only time will tell.

I drew this a few months back and decided to let the rest of you see it publicly now. Here featuring Crash and Coco Bandicoot, along with Aku Aku. Here, I designed them in the style of how they would have looked in the Amazon TV show that was unfortunatly cancelled(thanks a lot Activision, you always have to ruin everything for everyone). Over the past year, I’ve really grown to love this series and absolutly enjoy the gameplay and absoloutly hilarious and nicely written cast of characters. So far, I’ve played through crash 2, 3, bash, wrath of cortex, and twinsanity. honselty, I havent felt this invigerated about a video game franchise since I first got into Mario and Sonic way back in the mid to late 2000’s. I haven’t been able to check out “ Crash 4: It’s about time” as of yet, mainly because I sadly don’t have an xbox one or series X, but I am looking forward to Crash on the Run coming out in a few weeks.

Just chillin

I don’t really have much to say about this picture. It’s just a simple picture of Bunga from The Lion Guard. I’d like to try doing more Lion King related characters, especially given how nicely this one turned out.
