Out of work actor and writer. I also write & make videos about comics sometimes. 28, They/He/She, Bi
There's not been too much to share lately because I've been locked in drawing a completely new comic for the new 18+ book. I didn't PLAN on drawing a whole ass comic but one image was not quite enough, so it became two images, and then that also wasn't enough and now I'm on page 8...
Okay here's a big sale. COMBINER WARS DEFENSOR WITH PERFECT EFFECT FEET AND BOTH GROOVES (no Rook) Contains everything shown here. Does not include Red Alert's fire axe (will go looking for it). $180 shipped.
My kitten just tried to save herself from falling off the bed by stabbing her claws into my foot. This strategy did not help her like she thought it would.
I saw this on Facebook, and I feel like it's a joke made for like ten people. I am, however, one of those people, and I love it.
A wonderful Fumes drawn for me by my even more wonderful friend, Six! (He doesn't have a bluesky...)
Discomfort is an essential part of growth and wouldn’t it be so embarrassing to be the exact same person thirty years from now, in a totally different world, because you were so averse to discomfort?

been urged to repost these daft MOTU OCs based on ideas from friends back in dec '22 and Jan '23!! BEHOLD GOD'S SILLIEST SOLDIERS
"the principled crank" is a fantasy of rehabilitation for the cranks in your life who lack principles but who you can't disentangle yourself from
I think there's also a lot of cultural appetite, at this present moment, for a loud annoying dad-type figure who can be counted on to not be a bigot/be supportive/have principles. Jameson having a history of this particular combination of traits lets him slide into that role very easily.
My favorite part of the trans Peter Parker art going around is that everyone understands Jameson would be incredibly supportive of Peter and hate Spidey for being a bad example to trans people. THAT'S understanding a character.
All the gay comics people are at FlameCon and I’m stuck at home

and while im reposting old art, heres my Gobot OC LAFF-TRAK! while a carefree trickster at heart, this Renegade's dangerous pranks are anything but merry!
Caroline decided since we'd posted my favorite girl, she also wanted to post her favorite. Say hello to Molly, the meanest of mean girls. Always best dressed and always dripping with gold.
My buddy Caroline (www.instagram.com/carolimetime) and I have been working on a project inspired by my time on MLP and her time on MH and all of the things we wanted to do but couldn't. And we wanted to share some concept art with you. So please enjoy Betty, our high school punk rocker demon girl.
Kudos also, and to Kate Herron too, for being public about it. I'm kinda wondering how many directors and actors might have turned down offers without us hearing about it because that's not automatically gonna be announced like casting news.
Kudos to Ally Pankiw for turning down a Harry Potter directing offer, writing: "It simply is this easy to say no to funding transphobia!" I hope others will follow. ew.com/black-mirror...
*lou bega voice* a little bit of monica in my life. ever encroaching numbers of monica in my life. a lot more monicas than i was expecting.
every 6 years whoever has the PR rights gets a big head about making their original series with original footage and very slowly during pre-pro realizes this shit only works financially when you've got a company in japan already doing the expensive hard parts with way more experienced hands
The live-action ‘POWER RANGERS’ series is no longer moving forward at Disney+ (via deadline.com/2026/08/powe...)
MI HOMBRE!!! I love this guy so freaking much! Much like with G2 Inferno, he was one of the stars of my Transformers playtime as a wee one.
Just something I’m planning for next summer’s Thunderclash book!
this is what comics are supposed to look like
We’re back, baby!

since I started my work as artist, I never ever helped by agency or anything. Once, very first time I worked three Transformers covers, a fuckshit group in Japan asked me helping about payment and stupidly I agreed it, and there are their name as main character on the printed comics
And this is why everything I make is going to be about women, queer people, and trans people in particular. Representation is not about checking off boxes, it’s about ensuring visibility is so widespread and and pervasive that our existence is not even a question variety.com/2026/film/ne...
