Hi, my name’s Ecto, I am a freelance artist and animator who draws and writes about Danny Phantom! It’s my biggest comfort show and I have many stories and theories to share.
A story I’m currently working on takes place after the Glitch in Time graphic novel, it builds off everything the show and book has given us and follows one of the many narrative directions it could go down. It will follow the canon of the series with very minor headcanons thrown in just to fix certain writing issues from the show, the headcanons wont effect the story in any way.
If you have any questions you’re always free to go to my ask box, I’ll be happy to answer any questions you guys have, that’s always fun to do. ^^
A few things I will bring up here as I want to draw very quick boundaries when it comes to my blog:
DMs are always open, I’m down to chat with people and get to know other members of the DP community. ^^
Gift art/fics are always welcome! I love seeing others use my ocs (appropriately) and throwing them into some shenanigans, if you ever draw something for me just tag me. 💚
If you use my OCs for anything completely avoid any NSFW themes, gore/angst/shipping is fine, but no pro-ships, non-con or Minor/Adult themes. Thank you.
No I wont draw something for you for free, if I draw gift art for someone it’s because I wanted to or they are my friends. No ,that doesn’t mean you can try to be my friend for free art, that’s not cool. I don’t take requests unless specified.
Asks are always open! I love answering questions thrown my way, so do my characters! Just be sure to say who you’re asking so I know who to answer as. E.g. Question for Ecto: What program do you use?
No inappropriate questions in my ask box, even ones aimed at the characters, I’ll just remove them and move on but if I keep getting asked them by the same people I will block you.
If you want to use my art as reference and upload it anywhere, please give the proper credit, learning is totally fine but you should always credit your sources! If you are found referencing my art I will DM you asking for a credit tag, if I receive no response or nothing changes within 1 week I will block you. Please respect my wishes when it comes to my art.
Follow these and we’ll get along just fine! 💚
I’m setting these boundaries now just to avoid any issues in future and to just be completely open when it comes to what I am and what I am not ok with. A lot of these are just common sense but I feel like I should mention them anyway.
Commissioned the wonderful @pichikui for a piece of the boy, and they did an amazing job with him! He truly has come full circle since it was because of the graphic novels I made him, and now the mind behind it drew him!
Thank you so much, you made him look so feral, I love it.
Well this is massively disappointing, I hope Jonen and Rob had no idea he was using AI to do this before they gave their blessing.
“Artists driving tech” we are already doing that by using powerful drawing tablets and editing software, AI generated imagery is totally unnecessary when you have passionate people lined up and ready to work on things like this.
There is no ‘being cautious with AI’ to be creative, just don’t use it.*
*I’m specifically talking about generative AI, not overall AI. Generative AI and data centres are the problem, but coded algorithms in the medical field used to predict cancer and/or used in videogames (enemy behaviour etc, not images, writing or music) written by people are harmless. Generative AI, Chat GPT, etc are all harmful to everyone and shouldn’t be used. I hate it when people say ‘well all videogames use AI’, you know what I’m talking about, don’t be a smartass.
