I just got back from the theater after watching Laika Studios' Wildwood. It's truly a spectacle and I feel those words fall short in describing how breathtaking it is. I highly implore you to see it in a growing era of AI, sequels, and reboots. It's a self-healing ritual. 🥹 #films #laikastudios

Well howdy folks! Haven't been on Bluesky for a while. Not much seems to have changed thank god. I hope to upload more and give you guys something to chew on. To be honest I'm just in such a creative slump and life just sucks right now. Maybe it'll all get better in November...
Just got a set of legendary dip pen nibs including some other cool ones! Just doodling Charlie Brown and other random junk for fun.
Here's Mr. Happy, radiant with joy as usual in a smooth vector format!
If The Mr. Men Show was actually true to Roger Hargreaves' original drawing style, I think the characters would look like this. A bit of asymmetry and more round and a bit more Peanuts-like.
Been a little while but just thought I'd share a new illustration! Felt like drawing Mr. Bump in Adobe Illustrator just cause he's so cute and is my fav character in Mr. Men 🤕
Man making this in Illustrator makes my my hand-drawn stuff look like child's play
Here's kind of a basic atlas of mouth/expression types that I wanted to sketch out. Kind of going a fine line between cliché and originality, and I believe this probably strikes the perfect balance. Also wanted to maintain a cute yet expressive aesthetic.
btw all the new posts you're seeing are actually stuff I already posted a while ago on twitter but thought would make sense here just so my feed matches
Okay, y’all are gonna love this! I made a whole page dedicated to…mouths! You could even say it’s a…mouthful! (Either puns are still in fashion or I’m late to the party 😅)

Oh yeah, made this for my 20th birthday but accidentally got deleted during the purge. Here it is to stay!
Here's the (new) me again, here to stay too! Got deleted during the purge accidentally.
Well, hello (again) everyone! So I already had purged posts from my profile, but I thought now would be a good time to start anew. It's gonna be nothing but illustrations and animation projects on here. Maybe the occasional unrelated/quote tweets, but it's mostly going to be project oriented.
