Gotta Kick At The Darkness Till It Bleeds Daylight

Hi!

Welcome to Jackals’ Rest!

My name is Pan and this is where I post my art, writings, musings, things I like, etc.

Imma be posting a lot of WIPs, some genuine completed pieces, old art, character sheets and concepts- it’s all going on here.

You may even see some storyboarding for my comic project: Everlost

Everlost is an upcoming comic series about cults, organized crime, and a town that doesn’t exist on any map- all shrouded in the dense mists of Appalachia’s forests.

Expect a lot of those characters to make frequent appearances. Because they occupy 99% of my brain.

I don’t know how building a platform for your art works and at this point I’m just throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. Tips and tricks of the trade appreciated. Please send me messages and ask me things they genuinely make my day. :]

Blessed be,

-Pan

I decided to do a little drawing challenge to myself and do as many Everlost character portraits on one piece of paper as I could.

And boys after like a year or two of drawing digitally, drawing traditionally again??? Pain. Just pain. The loop and scale tools have spoiled me.

Y’all I am so incredibly tired in a way that surpasses mere exhaustion. World weary would be closer to it. If you’re also out there barely hanging on I see you, and I feel you man.

I hate you you fat orange fuck

*gathers all of the people in the world who write the number 7 with a little dash in the center of it so I can study them like little critters and find out what makes them do that*

There’s actually a lot of history regarding the development writing systems and why there are different visual representations of numerals, but the short answer is: it’s regional, and you probably picked up how to make your numbers look based on your parents or your primary school teachers

I do it out of spite because in grade school a kids detective story identified the culprit by saying NO American wrote their sevens with a line and I thought that was super flimsy evidence and it made me so mad I started putting a line through my sevens so the fictional detective would be wrong and then kept doing it for several decades since.

I do feel one can’t underestimate the “elementary school child taught themselves how to do this Out Of Spite” crowd

[jackalsight]

I do this because I saw a girl in school do it once and thought it was cool, so I started doing it. Same reason I give my 2s the weird loopy tail at the bottom.

There are two wolves inside you. One is ADHD the other is Autism.

there is no middle & high school friendship stronger than the extremely sheltered Christian nerd and the mentally ill vaguely alternative transgender gay commie wastoid who also has next to no friends. I swear I had like 3 formerly homeschooled Christian apprentices during my time in school. got done smoking weed out of a soda can, ready to debate economic theory with a girl I had to explain what gambling was to. the cultural exchange of someone who has had their development stunted by a highly religious upbringing and someone who grew up way too fast and became too ‘worldly’ because they had no choice…

[jackalsight]

Can confirm. I was the extremely sheltered Christian nerd in every friendship for my entire life until after I graduated high school dawg. My best friends were scene and emo kids who smoked weed. Then I grew into the weed smoking gay ancom friend after I became an adult. 👍🏻

Miss Mallow… ❤️❤️❤️🐁🐁🐁 Salem’s most beloved companion mouse (and co-conspirator)

She’s god’s favorite princess and the most interesting girl in the world 🌎✨❤️

[jackalsight]

what are your favorite animals?

OUGH!! Hi friend! That’s a good question and honestly the answer may be surprising!

My favorite I think would have to be stoats. Absolutely wild lil critters. Small and cute but able to take down prey like twice as big as them. BIRDS, EVEN!!! I also love Jackals, foxes, wolves. (I was the wolf girl in my middle school class lmao, if that explains anything 🤣) Rats and mice, of course!

[jackalsight]

Also MALLOW IS HERE!! Everyone say hi Mallow!
