Heavy into the swing of #PunkyBrewster - can’t wait to share volume 2 later in the year!! #illustration #comic Lion Forge - In the meantime here is a look at a first pass on a page where I sketch as I read the manuscript :)
More Punky Brewster is coming! In the meantime, catch up with Punky’s adventures in volume 1!
I turned my drawings from the last post into drawings for an event I’m working on. These drawings were digitally put together with letters by my co-event-maker @zaidamus, and then lovingly printed on a risograph by the name of ‘Lisa.’
I don’t know how to print with risographs yet, but it’s exciting to know something i made is close to it, to know I’m about to learn.
Have a little @strangelykatie! P.S. you can buy the comic she drew, Crystal Cadets vol.1, on Comixology.
WHEN WILL OUR CARE BEARS COMIC COME OUT? 😭💦 (drawn by Care Bears artist @pigeonbits)
Sneak peak of @oneofthejohns‘s Care Bears story! Beastly givin’ ‘em what for.
Hello! I've been a major fan of your work for a long time! I'm a fellow artist myself, and I'm hoping to some point build myself a following. I've always been very shy and unmotivated to post things online. So~ I was wondering if you had any tips or tricks to increase one's tumblr following through art?
Hello! Thank you for following my work, that’s so sweet of you!
There are definitely things you can do to increase your Tumblr following, which include:
Drawing fanart (and tagging it appropriately)
Posting frequently
Drawing short comics that can be read in one post, either funny or poignant
Developing a webcomic/OCs for people to get invested in
#RealTalk: observing any current style trends you see (warning this may not actually make you happy, also please don’t rip people off wholesale)
Drawing real cute stuff, especially if you can make merch of it
That said, consider a couple of things:
People will find you for a certain kind of content, and they’ll expect to see more of that content. If you suddenly switch gears, you risk isolating the audience you’ve built up. What it comes down to is, whatever you do should be an extension of what you already like to draw. If you read the above list and none of them look appealing, you don’t have to do them! You can also build a tumblr following slowly and steadily, though simply posting your work and gaining followers who will like it for what it is. There’s love for all kinds of art and styles in the world, so if you don’t want to use any of the tips and tricks, just work hard, be polite, be kind.
The two goddesses that preside over the Yenomi, a species created by myself and May! The one on the left represents the phases of the moon, and is called Ara. The one on the right represents the phases of the day, and is called Cephei. We’re still in the process of developing them, but if you like you can find more about them here:
YENOMI @ TUMBLR

It’s really nice to have a relaxing side project that is purely about creating #aesthetic and worldbuilding! I hope you enjoy!
So pretty! FYI, if you want more of Katie O’Neill’s magic, Crystal Cadets vol.1 is now available on Comixology.
Rating: 4/5 – An All Ages Comic Bringing Back Madballs! By ComicSpectrum senior reviewer Shawn Hoklas. Although I didn’t have many, I loved the Madballs toys when I was a kid. In the mid 1980…
"If I had this book when I was younger I’d have loved it . . . The real test will come when I give it to my seven and four year old to try"!
Comic Review: Andre The Giant: Closer To Heaven and Saved By The Bell Vol. 1 @roarcomics
Andre The Giant: Closer to Heaven
“I couldn't stop reading, got emotionally invested and quite frankly, despite knowing a lot of these things chronically, I still found it downright fascinating to rediscover. The art is very tastefully done and not in a cartoony, extra comical way. The dialogue is perfect as well.”
Saved by the Bell Vol. 1
“My favorite may be the first issue in which the entire gang meet that lovable musclehead, AC Slater for the first time and hilarity indeed ensues. It's very reminiscent of the first episode but still feels new and fresh, which is important . . . this was a nice companion.”
If Gerard Way is excited about Madballs #1, you should be too!
How a genius cartoonist does his thing: Dan Zettwoch’s thumbnails for his Madballs backup comic, which appears in MADBALLS #1! See more of his process on his blog.
Freaky fun for everyone — if that rings a bell then you’re a fellow fan of those disgusting heads from the ‘80s, the Madballs. Now, experience it in a new and interesting way thanks to Roar C…
BCS Kids says "Madballs the comic book flows right along with this nostalgic resurgence for older fans (and precocious kids), bringing an art comics A-game that we rarely see in media tie-ins.”
Nothing has ever been more wholesome and completely non-nightmare inducingly normal.
That giant-size Skull Face... whoa. MADBALLS #1 is in stores now, get your wholesome, normal comics fix!

Rediscover the 80s discovered our new Madballs comic! “I can't express enough how glorious the artwork is in this first issue. There is no rhyme or reason to the game rules of the Bizzaro Bowl, which suits the characters perfectly and allows the writers to create a really fun sports atmosphere even for non-sports fans.”
Mad Balls are rad ballz
This is a custom “madball” I designed, sculpted and painted for my partner who collects them. It’s (obviously) inspired by Little Shop of Horrors but also carnivorous plants in general since he also likes those. I made it for his birthday this past November. These projects are fun for me because I almost never work in actual 3D and it’s a very different experience. My sculpting skills are pretty rudimentary. This is the one I made the year before though, so I think I’ve gotten a bit better! It’s made out of Das paper clay and painted with acrylics with glow in the dark sculpey teeth. I named her Audrey Spew.
Amazing job! Audrey Spew would be very at home with the rest of the Madballs cast.

You thought – no, HOPED – those disgusting creepy heads from the ‘80s were gone forever, but boy, were you wrong! When the headless Torsoids sabotage the Intergalactic Bizarro Bowl, the squabbling Madballs have to team up to take ‘em down. Screamin’ Meemie, Bash Brain, Skullface, and the rest of the Madballs are back in this grosser-than-gross new adventure! On sale April 20!
