Hey everyone! I know I haven’t posted art in a long while but I wanted to come back and spotlight something that very recently came to my attention. Kevin Rubio, the creator of Tag and Bink, is fighting kidney cancer right now. I wanted to boost the donation post that others in the writing industry put together for him to cover his expenses and medical bills while he's unable to work.

To say this blog wouldn’t have the following it does today without Tag and Bink is a massive understatement. In 2021 my star wars content blew up because of all the posts and art content I made with my own interpretation of those two. I credit those characters and comics as being the true reason I fell in love with Star Wars as a kid and how it generally shaped my taste in media. It also meant a lot to me that these characters were mexican made by mexican creators. I figure the least I can do is donate and share.

Please donate if you can, and please share/reblog!

Donate to Kevin’s Kidney (and Lungs!), organized by Charlotte McDuffie

This is Charlotte, raising money to cover Kevin’s medical expenses & general life while… Charlotte McDuffie needs your support for Kevin’s K

UPDATE June 23rd, 2024 by Charlotte McDuffie, Organizer

Kevin update, in his own words: “I’m still alive. Doctors are still poking to make sure that it hasn’t spread or that I just have the one type of cancer. Sleeping a lot. - Kevin"

PLEASE KEEP SHARING/DONATING! Disney still makes reprints of Tag and Bink and does not pay royalties to the author, they are profiting off of his work while his writer friends help raise money when he's sick.

I redrew my old drawing of Rystáll Sant as a fun warmup to try to get back into the groove of drawing again ❤️ I’m still not in a star wars headspace but she has such an engaging character design so it’s easy to draw her and practice my colors/rendering

Thanks for everyone’s patience with me with all my tumblr breaks as I’ve really struggled this year to be creatively motivated or engaged with online stuff due to life struggles that have impacted me and my mental health. I’m still working on it but I appreciate the support from friends 💖

+ bonus drawing of an initial draft

FRANCOOOOO 🇦🇷💖💙💖💙💖🇦🇷

long-overdue fanart of one of my favorite drivers on the grid right now! I actually sketched this out when Franco was first announced to join Alpine as a reserve driver, but I didn’t get around to finishing it until now. But it was good timing because I LOVE the all-pink racing suits for this weekend 💖

“Yuki has the talent, has the speed and, more than that, you need the mentality to cope with it. I think he has the right mentality and the right attitude to cope with it. I hope they will succeed.” —Checo Pérez on Yuki joining Red Bull

“At one point, I spoke to Checo, and he said, ‘I hope they don't put Yuki in.’ Checo knew very well what was going on internally and what was happening with the car.” —Diego Mejía for Only Drivers

i’m never beating the “about to pay for my place by the ring and look in their eyes when they’re down” allegations… my family…

this is kinda out of nowhere but it just occurred to me I haven't seen anything from Ivy on my dash in months :( do you know where her and Ailani went? I miss her amazing art and story, both real and fictional

I will send her the well-wishes! She's still the same wonderful person, writing and creating and much happier to be offline <3
