I'm Luka (all pronouns, masc preference), and my birthday is Jan 23 if that matters to you (0123 represent)! I'm currently super into DC comics, specifically YJ98 and other 90s/early 00s comics, but I do read continuity, so be careful in case I post about anything coming out and you want to avoid spoilers!
All my art is in #art tag on my page, but I might go and add a more specific tag at some point. I also try to categorise everything by character/ship/style so you're welcome to go through my blog that way. I also have #halloffave which I update every month or so, and it ranges from "art which had a good vibe" to "I am amazed I drew this wtf" but is, overall, a list of my personal favourites.
I draw using Clip Studio Paint, and my lines are all done with the mechanical pencil brush. The colouring brush I use is something I got from the asset store, and I'll add a link to it later. If I remember to.

Commissions: email me at [email protected] with the subject "[your name] commission" (tell me what you're looking for, what kind of price you can afford, and attach any references you think I'll need. I'll calculate the price based on what you've asked for!)
I'll also take requests in my asks! (Note: they're not guaranteed, but I love to interact with everyone!)
Thanks for stopping by my page!! (Below is just extra faff if you're interested in that)
I love RP blogs, and OC blogs too, you're welcome to play with my art if you want to, and free to make simple requests - so long as you keep it respectful (as in, I'm a sappy guy, so chances are if you ask for violent art I won't do it hahaha. And you know, being nice and caring about my work more than just a means to an end goes a long way) (Also, just as a warning overall, requests are never guaranteed.)
I multiship and have like, 60 different AUs going on at a time, which I don't necessarily disclose. (Like sometimes Tim IS a coffee drinking stalker in the art, when usually I'm anti coffee-drinking-stalker Tim lmao.) Art is freeform and fun, and I really just want to draw 100 romantic sappy drawings in a row haha. I take inspiration from different comics for everything I draw, too. I don't like art being a rigid thing with "right" and "wrong" approaches.
On that note, understand I'm not an official DC artist and therefore none of my "designs" are concrete, either. The way they look is going to be based on how it best fits the vibe of the art (or, as best as I can draw them at my current skill level). I do have shapes and definitive colour palettes I stick to, but it's not That Deep.
I also want it to be known that I believe in "ship and let ship" as in, so long as you're cool with my ships, I'm cool with yours. I don't mind if you reblog something I draw with a shipping label that I didn't intend as ship art (and same goes the other way, if you don't ship what I do ship, like the Supersons, you can tag it as platonic), because I know how I feel and that's that. We're all just trying to make it to the next day out here, and I'm not looking for drama. Do what you want! (Just don't steal and repost anything I draw to other sites, tumblr is my only one 💥).
I don't mind if you spam like BUT you must pay the toll. One reblog, or at LEAST also a follow. I will know. (Tumblr hides blogs that get spam-liked, if you don't know why people dislike being spammed!) I also love comments, either in reblogs OR in the replies section. Interact with me! I love to find like-minded people!
And last but not least: If I draw a pose and you like it, go ahead and copy that pose. And then tell me! Show me! Art is about being inspired! If I make a joke and you want to make the same joke about some other characters, go for it! And then tell me! Show me! If you liked what I made enough to make something because of it, I'm overjoyed. Let's get along and be friends who inspire each other!
Okay this prompt….i struggled a lot with this one ima be so fr. I had all of the pieces planned for this week and ORIGINALLY I was gonna do the prompt role reversal and power swap and I had it all planned out and stuff. Happy I was until the little voice in my brain was like “well…it’s kinda teen titans…not young justice”
Back to square one I went.
So this piece is from a half baked au idea I had that’s essentially young justice illiad au. I’m gonna be so honest here, I was only really dead set on Cassie and Cissie being Cassandra and Helen of Troy and I was going to explore this au properly when I finished The End Crowns All by Bea Fitzgerald since I haven’t read the Iliad since I listened to the audiobook of it during my leaving cert
All I know from this au is that CissieCassie is the main focus and I thinkkkkkk I was gonna have Timkon be patrochilles? Still on the fence really since I can see some people filling in the roles of the other characters in platonic ways and trying to keep the vibe of the Iliad while also using the young justice cast in a manner that’s in character but yeah! That’s the au! The future aspect is because, yk, Cassandra was forced to see the future but no one would believe her prophecies
Despite all the issues, I actually had so much fun with this piece and Ill have which eye belongs to which character on a HERE in due time because i can’t fit all the pics in
@yj98week
Alt colours vvv I wanted to emulate my absolute Wonder Woman piece where it looked like a Greek pot colour wise? But I enjoyed the pink too much
I always think "it'll be fine if I just get the ideas on paper and finish it during the week" and I ALWAYS REDISCOVER I'M WRONG.... sobs. I was going to swap everyone around (ray and slobo swap was gonna be so peak), and I might do that later but for today I'm taking it easy. Lol.
Okay, confession...... I actually drew something else for this day but I just kept not liking how it turned out no matter what. So. Instead I've thrown this together at the last minute instead, but in a few months after my skills have had some time to grow again, I'll finish what I was actually making and we can all reminisce about yj98 week (it was an epic beach volleyball scene haha, I'm just not good enough with dynamics yet, but I will be soon enough!)
Couldn't decide if I wanted it to be ghost-greta or human greta but I figured I'd just go with muted ghostly colours, and her brown colour scheme, but now I think I should have given her lively colours. Oh well. That's just how it is when you draw something all of a sudden with no plans in place.
I did intend to add more characters in but then it just ended up being these three 😭 sorry everyone else you are NOT invited to the slumber party I guess..... (I just couldn't decide where to put them lolll)
This painting was left intentionally incomplete. Haring began it when he was dying due to complications from AIDS, and knew he didn’t have much time left. The piece represents the incomplete lives of him and many others, lost to AIDS during the crisis.
“AIDS Memorial Quilt” — Multiple
This quilt is over 50 tons heavy, and one of, if not the, largest pieces of community folk art. Many people who died of AIDS did not receive funerals, due to social stigma and many funeral homes refusing to handle the deceased’s remains, so this was one of the only ways their lives could be celebrated. Each panel was created in recognition of someone who died due to AIDS, typically by that person’s loved ones.
“Untitled” (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) — Felix Gonzalez-Torres
This pile of candy weighs the same amount as an average adult man. Visitors are encouraged to take some of the candy. As they do so, the pile of candy weighs less and less. This is a commentary on how AIDS deteriorates the body of those who have it. Gonzalez-Torres’ partner, Ross Laycock, had died due to AIDS-related complications the same year.
The SF Gay Men's Chorus
This photo was taken in 1993. The men in white are the surviving original members. Every man in black is standing in for an original member who lost their lives to AIDS.
“Electric Fan (Feel it Motherfuckers); Only Unclaimed Item from the Stephen Earabino Estate, 1997” — John Boskovich
After the death of his lover, Stephen Earabino, from AIDS, Boskovich discovered that his family had completely cleared his room, including Boskovich’s own possessions, save for this fan. An entire person, existence and relationship had been erased, just like so many lives during the AIDS crisis. Boskovich encased the fan in Plexiglass, but added cutouts so that its air may be felt by the viewer, almost like an exhalation. In a sense, restoring Earabino’s breath.
“Blue” — Derek Jarman
This was Jarman’s final feature film, released four months before his death from AIDS-related complications. These complications had left him visually impaired, able to only see in shades of blue. This film consists of a single shot of a saturated blue color, as the soundtrack to the film described Jarman’s life through narration, intercut with the adventures of Blue, a humanization of the color blue. The film's final moments consist of a set of repeated names: “John. Daniel. Howard. Graham. Terry. Paul". These are the names of former lovers and friends of Jarman who had died due to AIDS.
“Untitled” (Perfect Lovers) — Felix Gonzalez-Torres
Created by the same man who created the previous untitled piece, this piece was also inspired by his lover’s deterioration and death due to AIDS. This piece consists of two perfectly alike clocks. Over the course of time, one of the clocks will fall out of sync with the other.
In a letter written to his lover about the piece, before his lover’s passing, Gonzalez-Tourres wrote, “Don't be afraid of the clocks, they are our time, the time has been so generous to us. We imprinted time with the sweet taste of victory. We conquered fate by meeting at a certain time in a certain space. We are a product of the time, therefore we give back credit were it is due: time. We are synchronized, now forever. I love you.”
I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today, we have 83 days left until Google rolls out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!
I'll share some of the info below:
Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.
What to do?
-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides
- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out the full resources list on their website as well!
To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements but we got this working together!
Share the link with your friends, family and anyone who will listen!
Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.

Random but I've recently started thinking of the concept of Bernard falling out of love with Tim once he reveals he's Robin. Like from day one it was the mystery of Tim that drew him in, seeing this guy he couldn't place in a box easily and who was nice and present but also distant and hard to truly get a read on. He thrived on wanting to figure the puzzle out, and once he solved the puzzle he thrived on toeing the line with calling him things like boy wonder and coming up with outrageous theories about vigilantes that Tim had to sit and listen to, because he couldn't refute the claims without revealing himself or his family/friends. So in Tim unfolding that last piece of himself, Bernard's whole crutch of interest in Tim begins to fizzle out. They both hate themselves for this and keep trying to make it work but now Tim's not "secretly running off to save lives," he's just going to his job and being absent from his partner. Bernard can no longer say all those things with secret double meanings that Tim doesn't catch. Tim catches them now, and he feels bashful, but also experiences pangs of shame that he took so long to notice them. He can't really make theories because the fun was watching Tim squirm against his need to correct Bernard's wrongs. The chase of waiting for Tim to speak up (which Bernard thought he wanted) just boils over into nothing. It's normal, and now they're normal. The secrets he knew but wasn't saying he knew are now just in the open. There's nothing to grab onto and feel special for secretly knowing. Do you get what I mean? I've been thinking of this lately.
Transphobia is about to be signed into law in the UK. We can fight this.
I am begging the UK trans community and its allies to attend the Mass Lobby at Parliament on June 25th, 11am-4pm, organised by Trans Solidarity Alliance.
Last year we broke the record for an LGBT+ mass lobby of Parliament. Will you help us break it again? Join us on 25th June 2026 to demand be
The new EHRC Code of Practice pushes trans people out of toilets, hospital wards, and community spaces. It normalises gender policing based on appearance and stereotypes. It becomes statutory guidance in the UK by the end of June.
Trans people are now legally their assigned gender at birth and must join gendered spaces accordingly, but if they are perceived as their lived gender, they can also be ejected from those spaces. The guidance says: either break the law, or don’t pass too well.
A mass lobby is where you invite your MP to discuss your concerns with you in-person. Ask your MP to:
Demand full parliamentary scrutiny, debate, and use their free vote on the EHRC Code of Practice.
Support any motions rejecting the EHRC guidance. As of June 4th, Labour MP Nadia Whittome has submitted a prayer motion - Early Day Motion 240.
Write to Bridget Phillipson, the Minister for Women and Equalities about our concerns
Your MP does not have to be an ally, they do not have to respond to your email for you to show up and greencard them (details below the cut.) What matters is that as many people as possible show up.
I cannot stress this enough: Showing up in person matters. It is much more effective than petitions, emails, and letters.
It is a horrible, stressful time, and I am so sorry if you're trans and live in the UK. But I was at last year's mass lobby and the line for greencarding alone stretched around the back gates. It was a record breaking mass lobby and made us impossible to ignore. Let's do even better this time. Details under the cut:
Worried about what to say?
Bring your personal worries about transphobia being signed into law, and trans friends being excluded from public spaces. You are a living person who deserves dignity. Remind your MP of that. You will also get guidance and brochures from Trans Solidarity Alliance that outlines our demands. This is mine from last year.
Money issues?
Trans Solidarity Alliance provides a travel bursary that you can sign up for via the link.
Got a refusal or no response from your MP?
Come anyway! You can request a same-day appointment with your MP through a process called greencarding. They will come and see you if they’re already in Parliament. Even if they don’t, they’re made acutely aware of your cause because you showed up in person. This is my greencard from last year.
Here is the EHRC Code of Practice in full. It's a tough read, but some highlights are:
Organisations can’t provide trans-inclusive, single-sex services, or they risk being sued for discrimination.
e.g. domestic violence support for women including trans women, men’s rugby group including trans men (12.68).
Trans people will have nowhere safe to pee.
If you’re a trans man, businesses can't allow you to pee in the men's, and you can also be ejected from women’s bathrooms if you’re perceived as a man. Vice versa for trans women. EHRC suggests a ‘third space’ bathroom, which is discriminatory and unworkable for most businesses. (13.130-133)
Sports organisations must exclude trans people from single-sex competitions (13.73).
A women’s only sports competition must exclude trans women because of their biological advantage or face potential lawsuits (13.74), but a trans man who has undergone testosterone treatment can also be excluded based on fairness rules (13.81).
Trans women are stripped of the legal definition of ‘lesbian’, and therefore no longer have legal protections if they’re discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation. (2.50, 2.92).
Here is the Good Law Project's better explanation of the EHRC Code.
I have also made a PDF printout of QR codes for the government petition, email your MP tool, and mass lobby link to pass around your communities. DM me and I'll send it to you.
