In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.

It's incredibly sad people have to resort to this, but it's a damn good resource. Use it. Spread awareness. Maybe one day people with physical disabilities won't need DIYs like this. But until then, reblog and share.

first artfight attack for @/trupniy and their zombie fashion model ash!

[thoughtfulrobot]

I couldn't think of a good name for it

Credit isn't required (it's not like I own any part of the electromagnetic spectrum lol), but I'd love to see what you make 😄 This is the first palette challenge I've put together but unlikely to be the last, so any feedback you have would also be appreciated

Edit: I tagged this with pixel art, but any medium is welcome! The only rule of this palette challenge is to pick a palette (or have someone request one) and stick to those colors

I talked a lot last year about how the "main" artwork (faux sugimori style) for Pokemon had gotten miserably stiff and boring - many of them just exactly the lifeless idle poses from the game - but a new book apparently just revealed the alternate internal art of every current Pokemon, what fans call the "dream world art" that they use on a lot of stickers and coloring books. This is the first time the public has seen this art for the last couple hundred new Pokemon.

These tend to have their own original poses and god WHAT a fucking improvement

Toxtricity's "main" illustrations were even fairly decent but the alternate art STILL shows off what they should have been:

This is the book:

It's got all the megas and gigantamaxes in it too

It was sent to me as a mediafire link that was apparently already shared on 4chan anyway so you might as well grab it for yourself while it's still up:

6, 14! (for art asks!)

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it) Oddly enough the one that I keep coming back to is the Don Bluth movie Titan A.E. It was one of the movies I would play on loop as a kid and rewatching it now its such an interesting case of an animated movie trying to emulate a live action sci-fi action blockbuster. But I think about the environment and alien designs of that movie all the time I think they're so cool. I feel like it definitely helped me think about interesting character proportioning and worldbuilding by taking inspiration from the natural world.

14. Any favorite motifs I usually like to assign my characters some kind of geometric shape that I work into their design. I guess this isn't super specific, but I also like to integrate motifs of organic and biological concepts (I don't know how to label that more succinctly).

3, 8, 30 for the ask game!

Thanks for sending me an ask!

3.What ideas come from when you were little I don't really have any current projects or characters directly from when I was a child but more broadly I had a love of sci-fi and the supernatural from a young age. Me and my stepsisters were really into ghost hunting and cryptid shows that were all over tv in the early 2010s, I regularly watched a lot of Fringe, V, and Falling Skies...I think that was pretty formative to my interest in mixing those genres into most things I make.

8.What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in I had a big Jules Verne phase in high school and had this idea of a space opera-y comic inspired by 20,000 Leagues that I lost steam on, but i think it would be fun to revisit in the future when I have more time for research and when I'm better at making comics.

30.What piece of yours do you think is underrated Maybe my chainsaw man one, I really liked the rendering and coloring I did and how I drew all the characters. It didn't get a lot of traction when I posted it though.
