do you do comms? i so badly need an edition of Sea of Monsters wiþ all your chapter arts! Plus it'd be perfect wiþ a custom cover art... not seeing anyþing about commissions on your page so I figured I'd ask and see if I could pay you to make a cover art so I could print my own edition wiþ your art!!! (+ see if i could get permission to use your art in such a way...)

Ooooh, I'm so glad you liked my Percy Jackson covers ✨🥹

And yes, I'm available for commissions! 💫

If you'd like, we can talk about it in more detail privately here or in the DMs on my Instagram profile :)

Aaaaaaand also the Good Omens finale has been released

Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to see it yet (so no spoilers pls!), but I have a huge love for Good Omens. Since I first started watching it, it quickly became one of my comfort series, one I’d watch over and over again

So I was, and still am, extremely curious about how they wrapped it all up (I admit I’m a little scared; wrapping everything up in just one episode seems like a daunting task), but I can’t wait to see it and enjoy our Aziraphale and Crowley one last time. 💫

What do you think? Have you seen the TV show? Let me know!

Ahhhhh I LOVED the season two finale of Daredevil Born Again

The pacing, the tension between the characters, the twists—ahhh, how wonderful they did justice to these characters I love so much from the comics! ✨

So I absolutely had to draw something about it :)

What do you think? Did you like the second season of Born Again? Let me know!

I can finally show you some of my designs for the Camp Half-Blood campers 💫

I’ve been scribbling them down a lot over the past few months, but I haven’t had a chance to fix their designs yet. 😅 I hope you like them!

What do you think about them? Do you have any favorites for Part 2? Let me know in the comments ✨

[rick-by]

Sooooo, I really wanted to do an illustration of Annabeth and Percy’s underwater hug in the Sea of ​​Monsters, because it’s so unfair that it was cut from the TV series 😭

So here’s my take on that scene

Hope you like it ✨

I admit I have been a little obsessed with Bullseye lately.

Are you enjoying the second season of Born Again? Let me know ✨

[rick-by]

The first episode of the second season of Daredevil Born Again has been released and the black costume with the double D on the chest is too iconic not to draw anything about it 🤧

I’m super hyped for this new season of Daredevil. I don’t think I’ve ever said this here on my blog, but the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is my absolute favorite Marvel character. I love reading his comics and I absolutely adore the urban vibes of his stories ✨

I’d love to make some more Born Again Season 2 themed drawings, and I’m already working on posting something new about it soon ✨

What do you think? Have you seen the first episode of the new season? Did you like it?

A little short to show off my character designs for some of the Camp Half-Blood characters. ✨

I decided to show them to you so I could create scenes/comics that might involve these characters in the future. :)))

Over the past year, I’ve been sketching all the different characters as I’ve reread The Sea of ​​Monsters, so I didn’t want to leave those sketches unused. 🙃

I hope you enjoy my take on them. 💫

Did you imagine them differently? If so, how? I’m super curious! It’s incredibly fun to see how everyone imagines the characters in the books differently ✨

A little experiment with animation ✨

(Sorry if it's very basic, these are my first attempts 🥺)

After seeing the announcement of KLEOS ‘s first DTIYS, I really wanted to participate because their project is super interesting, so I took the opportunity to reimagine this little Percabeth scene in my own way :D✨

Hope you like it! 💫

Wonder Man was recently released on Disney Plus, a TV show I really enjoyed, and since I’ve been wanting to experiment with different characters lately to try to improve myself and my style, I thought “You know what, why not?”

Personally, I really appreciated the way the series tactfully explores the relationship between our passions and the obstacles we often impose on ourselves in trying to achieve our dreams. And since I think these are themes that are very dear to anyone who considers themselves “creative,” I thought this was a wonderful choice. ✨

What do you think? Have you seen the series? Did you like it?

20. The Fleece Works Its Magic Too Well 🌲

Ahhh, project finished, and I have to say, what a struggle this last cover was. The exams in between certainly didn’t help (so sorry for taking so long), but I had a clear idea of ​​what the composition of this last cover should be, and well it was pretty complicated.

I was particularly inspired by the image of campers running in the middle of the night to see Thalia’s awakening/return and well obviously Annabeth had to be in the front line 🥹

And I also wanted to show off my designs of some characters of Camp Half-Blood, so I played with their moods a bit, for example, by inserting a Silena Beauregard in curlers and drinking herbal tea into the crowd, or the Stoll brothers on the right, obviously wearing soft hooded pajamas, or various members of Apollo’s house (including a tiny Will Solace peeking out at the scene in the foreground ✨). I hope you enjoy it 🥺

What do you think of this project of mine? Did you like it? Would you like to see more projects like this in the future? Let me know ✨

[rick-by]

Are you planning on keep doing the chapter art for the rest of the books? I love them so much

Thank you so much 🥺💕

It's a project I'm really enjoying, so I'd definitely love to do it for the rest of the books too, but I can't ignore the fact that it requires a lot of time and effort. So, for example, I might decide to get the covers for The Lightning Thief in the next months, or for The Titan's Curse when the third season of the TV show comes out, but if I do, it'll be something I'll do well in advance and more calmly.

But hey let me know if it's something you're interested in, or if you prefer one book over another, because your feedback really helps me :)💫

19. The Chariot Race Ends with a Bang 🏅

-1 to the final cover ✨

Sorry guys, I had to slow down a bit for these last covers because I’m preparing for some exams these days, so it’s a bit difficult to manage everything 😓

That said, I have to say I had fun creating this illustration. It was important to play with a more peaceful/calmer mood after the battles of the previous chapters, and honestly I really wanted to do a little happy scene at Camp Half-Blood between Percy, Annabeth and Tyson 🥺

What do you think of the latest episodes of the TV show? Let me know ✨

18. The Party Ponies Invade 🫟

JUSTICE FOR THE PARTY PONIES!!! 🔥

Ahhh, what a shame they cut them badly in the TV show, so sad. With this in mind, I absolutely had to dedicate the entire cover to the Party Ponies in all their punk explosiveness 🤟🏻

(I know the punk thing is most likely my over-reading of the book, but hey, why not make rowdy, transgressive centaurs punk? The appeal of the punk aesthetic is undeniable 🔥)

What do you think of the last episode of the TV show? Let me know ✨

17. We Get a Surprise on Miami Beach 🗡️

I’ve never shown my Luke design before, and I haven’t put it on the cover yet (shame on me!), so he deserved at least a cover featuring him :)

I wanted to give him a sharp, menacing look, one that becomes increasingly tougher as Kronos’s grip on him tightens.

I hope you like my design :)✨

16. I Go Down with the Ship ⛵️

Final cover with Polyphemus ✨

For the “final round” between Percy and our ‘friend’ Cyclops, I wanted to create a more dynamic scene, so I also took the opportunity to show you my Polyphemus design better (within the limits of what an action scene allows, of course). :)

And if you ask me why give Polyphemus a beard, I think it helps better convey the idea of ​​an “old shepherd.” I know it’s an unusual depiction, but I wanted to emphasize his “shepherd” side.

I hope you like it ✨:)
