hi, i'm finn (she/her)! i love one piece and digital art, which i make using adobe photoshop and a huion HS611 tablet. i'm "self-taught", aka i just drew as a hobby for enough consecutive years for other people to want to see it.
i'm applying to some zines currently, and will be linking any i participate in here!
i'll share my own art in the #my art! tag, and stuff i did not spend hours staring at a screen to make in the #other's art tag. if it's not art at all, you can find it in the #misc tag, and actually relevant non-art things like announcements and such in #important. i'll be tagging this post with all of them for your convenience!
you can also find me on twitter, but i'm most comfortable here on tumblr!
Miscellaneous drawings of sabo in honor of his recent appearances in the manga that I’m, as you can assume, very happy about.
I’ve noticed that It’s been quite a while since ive posted Insane Sabo art. I’ve turned away from my roots as of late and i understand that. At the end of the day, though, theres only so many unique ways i can depict him as unwell so i dont try to force it, but every now and again i get a nugget of inspiration of smthn real good and i always welcome it with open arms.
Do you know who this artist is? I didn't want to post it on my blog to ask who it is because that would be reposting it w/o their permission, so I thought putting it on an ask would be more appropriate. I've been obsessed with this piece for a while now (big fan of Crocodile is Whitebeard's son idea)
if you can believe it, i definitely recognized this art when i saw your ask, but i couldn't remember exactly where i saw it.
i did a little digging and i think i found the source, but unfortunately, the twitter account is deleted, and some of the easier methods of finding old tweets (checking the google search cache, for instance) weren't turning up with anything.
in any case, many of the other instances of this image online link to the same defunct twitter account, including the twitter pinterest account, so i think it's relatively reliable.
that account is お湯屋 (@kitunoyuusi)! while they don't have a twitter anymore, they do still seem to have a pixiv. although it's possible this is just a different person with a similar name and art style, i think there's a solid chance they're the same.
the pixiv doesn't have the art you linked, nor some other art i've found associated with this account, but the most recent post was from 2016, whereas i think this art may be a little more recent. so it's possible they just didn't post this particular piece on their pixiv.
while searching i found a similar image that links back to the same author, again from the twitter pinterest account:
Mar 22, 2020 - “白ひげ「いっぱい貰ったんだなワニ小僧！すげーじゃねェ〜か！」 鰐「…撫でるのをやめろ///」”
regardless, because their twitter is down and pixiv is inconclusive, i'm not entirely sure how they feel about full-on reposts. still, we can appreciate their adorable, creative artwork and credit them as best as possible, even if they might not ever see it!
p.s.: i actually love digital media archival, especially from one piece, since it's been around for so much of internet history. i have a personal website where i collect and store old (typically early 2000s) fanart, fanfic and personal websites for one piece, just for the sake of keeping records on a fandom i care about. i've been a bit too busy to update it recently, but it's a passion project of mine, so asks like this one are more than welcome.
