Sketchy Things

Lou | 20s | any pronouns | Pillowfort | AO3 | This is where I share my drawings, but without all the cat videos and me yelling at the news. Commissions are OPEN. My main can be found @inkdrawndreamer

[inkdrawndreams]

I updated my commission prices and info. If there’s anything you have a question about, don’t hesitate to ask.

I offer ballpoint pen sketches for $5.00.

All other commissions are a minimum of $10.00.

Flat shading is $5.00 extra.

More detailed shading is $8.00 extra.

Complex interior/exterior backgrounds are $15.00 extra.

Prices for comics depend on the length and level of detail.

Traditional art commission prices vary depending on the materials and level of detail. Commissions can also be done in ink, alcohol markers, or pencil.

I take payments through Paypal, Cashapp, or Ko-Fi.

Feel free to DM me anytime if you’re interested!

I'm open for commissions again!...with a disclaimer. I work more than one job right now, so I don't have much time to draw during the week, especially when I'm away from my computer. Digital commissions are probably going to take longer than traditional ones for that reason.

I also offer $5 ballpoint sketches (roughly 5 x 7 or slightly larger) if you want something on the less pricy side. Any fandoms or OCs are welcome. Email or DM me if you're interested!

The zine is out as of today, so I can finally post this! I have a special fondness for Ace and Spanners. I am also never drawing that much leather digitally again.

I finished reading this series last month. I like the feral kids (current and former).

[inkdrawndreams]

I saw a headline and immediately had to make a stupid joke with these two. That top part took the better part of two weeks for some reason.

[inkdrawndreams]

Here's the actual article the headline is from if anyone is interested. It's actually pretty fascinating!

Vampire Bats French Kiss With Mouthfuls Of Blood From Their Prey As A Way To Bond

Not only do the blood-filled 'kisses' strengthen social bonds, but they are prevent starvation among members of the group.

If you are a fandom writer or artist who does not speak English as a first language and still tries to post stuff in English, you have all my respect and thanks. It's a very weird language to begin with and sometimes it makes no goddamn sense, so kudos for doing the hard work of learning another one. Gracias para todos sus trabajos.

Here are some attempts at Cat. Let's hope the scanner didn't mess with the color too bad. One day I will learn how to draw this man, so help me.

Did you know Rimmer had a son in the novels. Introduced in Last Human.

His name is Michael Mcgruder the eldest brother out of the 4 rimster family. Raphette clearly being the youngest.

According to him, this isn’t the novel’s Michael. He’s 17, the twins are 16, and Raph is 10.

Besides the fact that he’s the eldest brother, but the most leading type.

The kids without them, might go bonkers. Raphette lose all hopes and dreams, James’ “evil” plans might be a success, and Bex…you know him.

Connecting with the original RD crew, he resembles Rimmer.

Fun facts:

He has a love for cooking. Mainly pastry work.

His handwritten is visible clear cursive.

6’2.5 feet tall.

Likes alternative or grunge rock, but when he meets Rimmer, He’ll admit classical rock. Which is a lie.

Everyone has a different accent, for Michael is clear British, similar to Raph, which was clear(ish…) American.

He can sing really well. He writes music incase he have too use his talents.

To piss off rimmer, he explicitly admires Artemis Yearly (fictional character in their world.)

Yeah, Idk who to share this information to, so have fun gaining ideas!

Huh, I think I read somewhere that Rimmer had a kid in one of the books, but I haven't gotten to Last Human yet.

Figures that any kids of Rimmer's would enjoy pissing him off to some degree.

[inkdrawndreams]

Idk man I just needed to get back into digital drawing. Rimmer's hair continues to vex me.

[inkdrawndreams]

Despite my exclamation to the contrary when this guy showed up on screen, this is not, in fact, Dr. Crane. These are from the 1994 Italian movie Cemetery Man, featuring Clive Riche as that redhead doctor you see trying to convince the protagonist not to let him do surgery on him.

I am slowly figuring out how to draw Kryten. Since he acts like Lister's self-appointed mum, it's only fair that the boys start calling him Nan. Doesn't matter that it started with a joke Rimmer made, he loves it. Rimmer spends a lot more time with the boys post-Legion. He still feels weird about it, but he likes the company more than he'll admit. Lister loves how much they hang off him. He loves having them around the ship.

[inkdrawndreams]

These people are difficult to draw but I'm still trying. Everyone's hanging out with the twins.

[inkdrawndreams]

I don't have much by way of big work accomplishments, but I will gladly put "teaching a trans boy how to tie a tie" and "repeatedly teaching kids to make weapons" in that column.

[inkdrawndreamer]

The last couple weeks have been busy as hell, but at least the boys get a beach break (except for Rimmer).

[inkdrawndreams]

Lister is a more forgiving man than I am because I still think Rimmer deserves an ass-kicking for cutting off his locs in Bodyswap. Dude, do you have any idea how long those take to grow?! His were really uniform too, so I assume they were getting regular maintenance.

I know Cat's hair is usually straightened, but I like the idea of him helping Lister out with his hair. If nothing else, he got the shaved sides in Series 5 somehow. Most of the people I know who wear locs regularly seem to start with double strand twists, so I tried drawing him with those up top. Unfortunately, I still don't know how to draw hairlines well. Sorry Lister.

I've been thinking about what might have happened if the roles in Parallels Universe had been reversed. Deb and Dave both see future echoes of themselves with twins in the Smegazine comics, so I think it could have happened. In this case, Deb Lister gives birth to twin girls, Jan and Becky, who start aging quickly and have to be taken to their dad's universe instead. I don't know if are would have still had a kid with Ace in this case. Who knows? She would figure out a way to visit at least.

Dave is surprised and woefully unprepared, but he adores them. Rimmer takes a much longer time to warm up to them, but he gets there. He gets along a bit better with Jan, who develops an interest in machines, but he still models ties for Becky and let'ls her paint his nails. He never passes his astronavs, but he helps Jan study to get her engineering certification. Becky's favorite person in the universe is the Cat. Unlike Jan, she doesn't mind being used as a clothing model, but she demands suits instead of dresses from age 8 onward. If she had a vision board, Janelle Monae and Amber Ruffin would take up most of it. She's a very skilled tailor and jewelry maker.

I attempted to draw Nirvanah from memory? Could have been worse. I like to think she was tired of fighting to maintain her place on the holoship, being so low on the ladder there. Maybe that's why she reached out to Rimmer. I think she, Rimmer, and Kochanski have a fair bit in common that would be worth exploring. Also, I like that Kochanski and Rimmer both had teddy bears. It's cute.
