So, I wanted to play around with Procreate Dreams and I thought it would be a good time to try making my first animatic.
This scene is from Chapter 9 of @ratcatcher0325 story Nobody's Fool. If you haven't read it (and I suggest you do!) it's set in a world where tiny people are kept as pets and disregarded by humans as nothing more than that. One such pet named Penn finds out he has musical talent. A band decides to give him a chance as their frontrunner. This is his first song ever performed in front of humans.
So please enjoy 2 minutes of some really terrible drawings but some really good music.
Today’s my Birthday and I got a wonderful little (heh, heh) surprise from someone really awesome: @kitn-underfoot thank you for the wonderful birthday art!
Wether you’re spending time with your relatives, found family or your own good company, I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
Penn and the gang will be sure to get together, jam and stuff themselves on turkey!
Thank you @kitn-underfoot for this beautiful image of Penn and Ev’s found family!
Here’s a fun little song from Shakey Graves, kinda about Thanksgiving 😂
I’m sure Alexander has spent the day keeping Natalie company as she perfects her annual recipes…. Most likely getting to enjoy lots of taste testing too!
Thank you to all my lovely readers for your support and enthusiasm! You have brought me so much joy over the past year! I am thankful for YOU!!!
Happy Valentine’s! I’d like to think Penn and Eveline would be celebrating the day staying lazy in pajamas and writing love songs for each other!
I want to shoutout to the amazing @echollama for this incredible artwork of these two. Be sure to reach out to them for commissions! They’re super great to work with! I love this piece so much!!
Hey everyone! I sadly had too many links on my master post so I am moving all the chapter links for Nobody’s Fool to here! (Art by @rubeau-art)
SYNOPSIS
***PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTINUING***
This is a story of one tiny man overcoming obstacles both systemic and personal to become a big time star.
Set in a universe where miniature people (around 5 inches tall) are kept as pets for the rich, this story follows one tiny man as he struggles to overcome the abuse people like him suffer at the hands of those who view him as nothing more than a plaything. When he’s rescued by a human who learns to see him for the person he is, he discovers something he never could explore until he had the opportunity to truly express himself: he has quite an incredible hidden talent. He has what it takes to become a big time star...if only everyone would take him seriously.
A mixture of fluff and angst. Mature (Language, adult themes and violence) but SFW. This story uses the pet trope as a means to explore themes of overcoming trauma and fighting back against abuse, as well as learning to love oneself.

A FRACTION OF JUSTICE
(Art by @rubeau-art)
This is the story of Alexander, a well-dressed, silver-tongued miniature person, who’s highly intelligent (perhaps, too much for his own good). He has aspirations of becoming the world’s tiniest lawyer. When he meets Natalie, will she help or hinder his progress?
Set in a universe where miniature people (around 5 inches tall) are kept as pets for the rich, this story follows one very tiny, academically minded man, who, after enduring abuse at the hands of the ignorant humans around him, becomes hell bent on finding a way to fight this treatment through the legal system. Will his case win out? He has to get humans to listen first. When he finds himself allied with one, will she finally be the first to hear his message?
A mixture of fluff and angst, but with much more angst at the beginning (Chapters 1 - 11). Mature (Language, adult themes and violence) but SFW. This story uses the pet trope as a means to explore themes of overcoming trauma and fighting back against abuse, as well as learning to love oneself.
