Animator / Cartoonist / Dreamer I love entertaining people through sharing of the things I find most important in life; mostly my art output but also stories, insights, and internet fun. https://breynolds.carrd.co/ https://ko-fi.com/toonfox
Quite often what I draw for people is greatly determined by the reference art I'm given for what the characters look like and then filtered through my own drawing habits. It's really fun when someone shows me their reference images and it's just flat out pure cartoon designs. YAY!
Feeling cocky today~ by the talented @breynolds.bsky.social!
Did a marker color render of a sketchbook picture drawn for @joey-poey.bsky.social a few years ago and put it up in this year's Anthrocon art show. Hope ya like it, -I'm awful happy with the way it turned out!
I just found out that supposedly Linktree is going to be feeding all the information and imagery that is posted to your account to the AI monster (bad) and potentially ALSO feeding the content of the pages you link to as well (worse). I'm seething at the forced participation in such schemes.
Drawn for Sabresage on FA featuring Zaviero the rat and Kalon the bear. It's a stylistic mashup between the ref art I was given and the sketch pose I was asked to implement and the results feels quite a bit different and entertaining than what I normally do following my usual habits. Very cool!
@bakertoons.com picked up one of my illustrations featuring two of my favorite characters created by @shuffle99.bsky.social: Lexi and Maddie!
My Anthrocon haul for this year. Got some good stuff!
Here's a fun quick sketch done at Anthrocon! Always glad when I can put something this fast together. :D
This sketch of Roxanne is the first time I've seen a character of mine drawn in front of me (at AC). I'm glad it got to be her! (Speaking for myself. Speaking for Emmet, I think she should go comb her ears for once.) Art by Brian Reynolds, as requested by my significant otter @hermux.bsky.social!
What the heck, here's another 18 convention badges that I've finished up fairly recently.
Are you ready for some more convention badges? I know I am! These are some of my favorite things to do at conventions because I can get a lot of interesting things done in a small space in a short amount of time.
I am utterly floored by how strong AC was for me this year. Y’all are *amazing* and I cannot say enough about how much I’ve enjoyed having conversations with everyone. Above all else though is the profound gratitude I have that so many of you have enjoyed the entertainment I’m able to offer.
Here’s some photos of my table at AC and the art show pieces I’ve got on display! At least the SFW art pieces… you’ll have to come in person to see the NSFW pictures.
I’ve just arrived in Pittsburgh for this year’s Anthrocon and am looking forward to drawing lots of fun stuff for everybody! Please come by my table at R01, -stay awhile, and listen! I’ll also have 31 pictures in the art show that would look excellent in your personal collection!

She thought she could handle the cold... she was wrong. So very wrong.
It's Chomp Raverdoof! And he's brought the ORANGE SODA! YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! **flail**
@achewylemon.bsky.social seems unable to deal with the power of BA! It's quite a force to be reckoned with for sure, -make no mistake!
Drawn for @sudoleez.bsky.social of Sudo and Demosthenes going out for a fun 3500 km 14 day marathon. You know, just like that. Who are you laying odds on?
Murphy Alter needs his coffee! And he doesn't want anyone else to have it!
Happy birthday to @mattythemouse.bsky.social! May all your far-fetched dreams come true! Credit to @zakuratech.bsky.social for the prompt! The premise for this just cried out for this format. :D :D :D
Originally drawn while visiting @donryu.bsky.social, I liked the picture enough that I decided earlier this year to do it up proper. This is a silly reinterpretation of my ToonFox mascot and my main character Gloria. One is a little naive, the other ...less so. Silly adventures are afoot!
A sketchpage from tonight's art stream featuring Oatmilk the cow! Super fun to draw as I was able to get quite a lot of goofy pictures done along with some drawings that turned out pretty satisfying!
I'm in a sharing kind of mood. Folks might not be as familiar with the Depatie-Freleng Pink Panther cartoons anymore, but they were so ubiquitous for awhile that it's kinda staggering how much better and quietly witty this movie intro is in comparison. Richard Williams FTW! youtu.be/gUOql_oIprc?...

Look at him, -look at that face! Can't you see he hasn't eaten in hours? The poor boy, he's suffering! Drawn again for @zefwolf.bsky.social
HARUPH-MFPH-MFFF-HAORH-ROWF!! I cannot tell you how much it fills me with delight to make doggy antics with people's characters. The opportunity doesn't come around too often, but when it does I AM SO THERE. Drawn for @zefwolf.bsky.social
They said it would be fun! "You'll be good at it, and you'll learn something new about yourself in the process!" WHAT DID WE LEARN?!?!
A pic drawn up for @friskecrisps.bsky.social . Beware for it'll sneak up on ya when you least expect it! "I swear... it just jumped out in front of me!"
One of the all time greats of comic strip humor for me. This absolutely helped define the kind of drawing and behavior I wanted to depict when I was a kid. There's plenty of other influences I could share, but I found myself repeating Opus' dialogue earlier today out of the blue and had to share!
