FAN DONATION CAMPAIGN!!

Two friends of mine, Chayenne and Tatty, brought this campaign into being after the announcement of Countdown wasn't renewed for a second season. This is my small slice of participation of trying to spread the word in the fandom family.

We want to prove to Supernatural and Countdown star Jensen Ackles and the rest of the cast how important the series has been by collecting donations, which will be evenly divided and handed over to the „I am ALS“ organization and The Glioblastoma Foundation at the German Purgatory 10 Convention in May 2026.

All information regarding the campaign and the link to donations can be found here:

Come on family, we got work to do! ;)

I'm going to tag a few people I know, follow or just admire myself: it's appreciated to help out by any means - reblogs to spread the word are just as welcome!

Oh, I´ve been so away - not because I don´t miss all of you here and all the fandom, but due to work plus lots of sessions of physiotherapy and rehabilitation after my surgery!

BUT oh, it´s Pride Month, I can´t go to July without take a pittle pause in the daily rush to celebrate with rainbow wings! And remember, We celebrate in June, but the Pride is for all the year! Lots of hugs, people!

[sketching-fox]

Oh, also, and sorry, I forgot to post here about it, I´m back to Twitter, too!

[sketching-fox]

Hi, people! How are you going?

This time I ´m here asking for some help from friends! I will need a surgery and I created a campaign to help me with the money! Here´s the link! https://gogetfunding.com/help-gios-surgery/

I had a serious rupture in the achilles tendon and I will need the surgery to re-build it!

Please, if you can, any help will be very welcome! And please, if you can, share in all your groups and social media to help spread the campaign!

Oh, and if you don´t have it yet, my Bluesky is @gioguima.bsky.social

On December, 5th, I finally met Misha here in CCXP2024!

He signed this original watercolor painting of a rainbow Castiel! And here our selfie!

Oh, I barely talked to him! I went into "bluescreen mode" and forgot how to speak and just said: Nice to met you! LOL

But it was amazing, anyway!

[sketching-fox]

Hi everybody! How are you all going?

Sorry I´ve been away for so long! But not because I´m done with Tumblr or social media or my fandom loves! :D

For good reasons, I´ve been REALLY busy with work and some personal projects here, I´ll be publishing a 120 pages graphic novel here in Brasil in November and have been working in a lot of things!

Os, also, sadly I´m not in Twitter anymore, because it is now blocked in my Country! But, considering the reasons and everything that Twt became after Melon Tusk, I´m good with this!

So, if you tried to contact me in there - or someone you know tried - please, sorry, I will not see the messages! And I forgot to leave a message in there notifying. My account still exists and all the posts, but I will not post new things in there for a while.

And last thing, check out my new SPN TFW cats on Stands Shop! :D

I will probably be too busy next month, too, but I hope soon Ill be back with our fandom works!

Love,

Gio

Hello! Absolutely love your art, it's so cool.

I was wondering what brush you use, in all your speed paints it looks like your using the same one and I was curious!

Anyways have a great day!

Hello, Anon!

Thank you very much for you message!

I have lots of brushes here, some customized or made by myself, but in this paintings for fanarts and for myself (or even at work), I mostly use 2 brushes.

The main brush is the 77 brush in a pack I downloaded from the artist Zedig, in his Deviant Art page, some time ago. He deleted his DA but you still can get his brushes for free or for a payment, if you want to contribute, in Gumroad. Here is his link:

I'm paintin' and drawin' y'all

The 77 brush have a nice mix of texture and color dynamics and can be amazing to work with, as well create effects and texture like traditional painting.

The other one is the most common brush in Photoshop, the circle. As it has a defined edge / line, I use it with different degrees of opacity to finish the small details on the painting! Like the points in the skin to sugest beard! :)

That´s it! Big hugs to you! Gio
