Really embarrassed to have to plug this, but my tablet is giving up the ghost. They no longer sell mine and the next model closest in design to it is a little higher in price than I'd hoped. 1/2

San Recto? Saint Rectum? Well, you heard it here, folks; they're literally talking out their "holy" asses, lol
We’re discovered the voter fraud. It’s MAGA👇
Here's my take on what the cover of Monster World IV might have looked like had it been released overseas in 1994. Included the original Japanese cover as comparison. Used the art style of previous "Westernised" covers of the Wonder Boy games series as inspiration.
I've opened commissions back up due to unfortunate circumstances that have recently taken place. But in order to soften things up, I've cut down the prices of the commissions. Feel free to DM me if you want something.
Here's an animated sequence I've been on since the 30th of December. A few scenes for a completed animation for a cartoon of Hedley and Smedley, which is currently in the works.
Another pencil test ready for ink and colour.
Animation I did for a Hanna-Barbera inspired project im working on with friends based on characters created by ourselves. I did this on a whim today despite no prior animation experiences keeping with the limitations Hanna-Barbera had in the early 60s. I gotto say Im pleased with the final result.
A three-piece set commissioned by me, drawn by @michaelfrancis.bsky.social, as an indirect tribute to the '90s film, #Pagemaster.

Good. I'm only just starting out and I'm not having some jack-holes with more money than I'll ever see in my lifetime taking a piece of the pie I'm baking that they made NO contribution to!
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry
Taylor Zander's October episode was one I thought was going to be a nightmare. Its 16 pages instead of the usual 8. But I've gunned it, and a month and a half of work doing all the pencils turned out to be a mere 12 days. I still have ink and colour to do but that takes less time than pencil.
Fear me, for i am the bumblebee tamer
8 new Taylor Zander pages to be released on Sunday the 31st of August. Hope to see you there!
I dont mind either way if people like or don't like the comics I'm making. Ill continue to put my all into them as always, but as long as people are talking about them one way or another, it has all been worth it.
I do wish folk would leave more comments on my work.

To FDR jr, on behalf of the autistic community, id like to share this, in a way only you and your supporters will understand:
Just woke up to see someone call me an AI artist. Please excuse me while I hysterically laugh my rage away
Only just figured how to do panel templates on photoshop. Had I figured this out a year ago, I'd have been doing Taylor 2 digitally from Page 50.
