Thanks for everyone who came up to me at LBX about the tutorial zine I made these for. Gonna redo it while using it as an opportunity to do vis dev for my project Mythic and kind of 2 and 1 it!

Seeing all these Eric Bauza stories from his close friends is heart wrenching, but also inspiring. The fact that one man made such a difference in so many lives is aspirational. Be a good person, keep bettering yourself, be the change you wanna see.

"what sound effect you want for this dancing scene?" "all of them"

this is the craziest October I've had in years. so much is happening so fast. currently trying to pull myself away from Mitri & Doog long enough to get freelance done, but this really makes me miss being able to draw for myself and make my own weird cartoons.

here's my roughs for episode 6 of Monkey Wrench! The first half was made in Clip Studio, and the second half was made in TVPaint 11. HUGE thanks to @figment34786.bsky.social, @bibimbeepbop.bsky.social and to @zeurel.bsky.social for all of their help! I really dig how these turned out 💖

you arent a burden. you are a human being with wants and needs. having desires does not make you selfish. unless you are sonic, in which case you are not human and everything you do sickens me.

Just published October's FREE newsletter on my Patreon! a fair warning: this issue has a picture of Doog's very spooky scary vampire halloween costume in it :O flops.zone/posts/m-f-ne...

books can be about bad people. the characters are not your friends. the protagonist is not you.

NEW ADVICE-FROM-LIEBER LIST! I've posted these tips as a thread before, but I figured it's about time I made it available as a single, shareable image.

Early copies of Super Mario Sunshine had several bugs, including a fatal memory leak that would not only cause the Chucksters to throw Mario into our dimension, but it would, more importantly, IRREPARABLY BREAK the GameCube. This was patched in subsequent copies.

we've lost so many greats this week. im calling a truce with the stupid blue rat for the rest of the month, Dolly would want peace.

Peter Cullen as Eeyore.. 🕊💙 "I don't come up here because I'm sad, I come up here because I'm happy."

Dolly Parton and Tim Curry were both profoundly kind, curious, and generous. It can seem maudlin to say that entertaining others is a higher calling, but they truly proved it was. At the heart of both their lives was a single message: "Love yourself."

It always feels like all the wrong people die, but I think it’s because there are far more beloved people than there are bastards.

Dolly Parton was someone whose life I never closely followed but whose admiration and respect for I felt in every instance where her name was mentioned… and I think that’s the kind of goal we should all aspire to in our own lifetimes.

was feeling nostalgic for the animated Cuphead short I never finished, so I dug back into my files and tidied up and colored my favorite gag in the whole thing. :3

I watched all of #monkeywrench. It's like of Cowboy Bebop was a saturday morning cartoon, I love it. I like the big guitar playing man and the little wiry stretchy guy and their fat pet cat #artpost

It's my personal belief that you should watch Monkey Wrench on netflix.

Oh boy today is THE day! Please enjoy everyone's hard work for the Netflix eps. And if you can, hit those double thumbs up at the end of each ep. The more we get, the higher chances of getting even MORE dubs, like japanese~

How I’m moving on here

had this conversation a couple times now but- it's not bad to read a webcomic without giving money to the creator! it's really okay. we put it there for you, for free! on purpose! if you find yourself in a position where you can drop a few bucks, great! but if you can't, please don't worry.
