im in a funk.
a colorized digital drawing of a cream color animorphic female-presenting duck in the style of Looney Tunes (specifically Looney Tunes in film). The duck has 70s styled curly auburn hair [curls happen past the eye line). It is a harsh red and blue and the duck is standing in front of a black background. The color blue cast shadows along the duck face but there is also a light burn effect on the blue to become a glow. Similar to the style of club scene blue in late 90s early 2000s thriller films. The yellow of the duck's bill becomes a harsh red-orange. They are giving a weary sadness, possibly shameful expression with their head slightly at three quarters. They are wearing a black dress with a black duck choker with a simple shape "dog tag" of red with gold tassles. The red shape is the shape of the artist's digital signature.

i hate suzie, me too, me three (2025)
an illustration of suzie pickles from i hate suzie. she is donning her clown look from the in-universe dance competition show, Dance Crazee. The clown is in a scribbled black unitard with two pigtails in disarray, save for a small gray bow at the bottom. Her hand is seemingly puppeteering another Suzie in red with a red shirt and long hair draping down her back with a matching red headband. This Suzie is even more doll-like, with circled pink cheeks and a smile looking off-canvas. The clown is looking back behind itself, seeing yet another off-canvas Suzie in a blue fur coat (implying to be the season one finale of Suzie Pickles) puppeteering the clown. The background is of a comic dots of colors from the Dance Crazee lighting merging in a Bokeh comic-effect - the implication that the one in red is addressing an audience on a set. The artist’s signature is at the bottom right corner in a similar effect of a tv glitch.

the worse thing about writing your alt descriptions for your image is that if there is spelling errors, you can't edit to correct....so there's that.

figures
An image on a black background, red text at the top 'Figures!'. Below it is a black and white/monocromatic drawing of a black older woman with big hair in a low ponytail wearing a logoless tracksuit. She has an medium sise hoop earring and pairs of hoop piercings at the corner ends of her left and right brow. There is also a piercing slightly above her right nostril. She is unimpressed, yet there is a smirk along the corner of her lips, looking away from the viewer. Below is a red icon if the artist's signature logo positioned beside her underneath her afro ponytail.

yawn
a doodle portrait of the artist with comically large mask in the shape of the artist’s signature logo. They are drawn with dreads in monochrome gray on a white background. They are seen addressing the viewer at the top and then seen with their back turned, laying horizontally on their side under covers. The artist’s logo is nearly transparent and sprinkled about with a very large version of it in the center. The text reads: “is this year over yet?” (on the left with a small arrow head pointing at the first doodle’s mouth) “I just feel a tad defeated, that’s all” (over the laying down artist as a frame break between the two doodles) “I’m just so tired” (in the shape of the covers the artist is under)

gotta show off my relatable manips of david tennant in case I see them more in the wild.

anyway, what a year.....
a screenshot manip of david tennant in he knew he was right 2004 mini series as Mr. Gibson. he is dressed in 1800s wear - a black overcoat and a white shirt. light brown hair is curled a bit like romantic era of the 1800s with a slight bob quality to it and sideburns. he is leaned back onto the armrest of a pea soup green couch with tan wood. behind him is a closed white door with a golden latch and crystal doorknob. The walls is a baby blue and pastel blue with painted white wood paneling at the bottom. He has his hands to the bridge of his nose, his eyes shut as if sighing out in processing of some bad news. On the right of him is a close up of his face, now looking off screen in disgust or bewilderment to the news someone off screen has told him, mouth slightly open and eyebrows furrowed. in the far left lower corner is the artist signature. a screenshot manip of david tennant in the promo of the cast of ducktales. he is wearing charcoal grey long sleeve shirt, black belt and dull red jeans. he has headphones around his neck. Off to the right, a stand of his script and a black stool behind him. he is standing in front of a white wall and visible wooden floor. There is a studio mic near his head. He is looking off frame, one hand on hip and the other resting over the stand of his script. He looks disinterested. On the left is a nearly translucent close up of his face looking directly at the camera, his head at angle due to tipping his head. in the far left lower corner is the artist signature.

Depicted is a clean shaven Tenth Doctor with tousled longer hair spiked up and shorter speaking with a upturn smirk on the left. He is wearing less layers than the televised counter part. He is also rubbing his right eye while looking down towards a Rose Tyler drawn with Nia Long in the role of Rose. This time she has her signature 90s pixie cut and wearing a dark baggy hoodie - the only reference of who she is is portraying is a crown drawn like a logo in reference to the graphic tee seen in said episode. She is smiling widely. They are both looking at the other, though Rose more tickled.

A black and white drawing of the fifteenth doctor from doctor who. He has his hand clinched slightly - with a ring band on the index finger - against his chin. He is shaded in a solid darker gray with darker grays for lips and shadow in with brief hatching to show light and dull gray for outline highlights of bone structure and a bit on the side of the bridge of his nose. His clothes are roughly just outline but no detail. with reference, a cropped color screenshot of ncuti gatwa as the fifteenth doctor from doctor who in the episode: the church on ruby road

13 and the 14s [thirteen and the fourteens]
A black and white drawing of Thirteen, Dhawan!Doctor, and Fourteenth Doctor from Doctor Who. In the foreground on the right is Dhawan!Doctor, or a 'Fourteenth Doctor'. He is slightly blurred/transparent. He is looking up, reaching for or working on something up high. He wearing a coat with a semblance of Fourth Doctor's scarf. In the center, behind him is of the Thirteenth Doctor. She is looking from the side of her exposed eye. She too is wearing a long coat, the coat's hood protruding out cartoonishly. She has her hand on some control panel. Her tongue is slightly sticking out. In the background is the Fourteenth Doctor, coatless. He is on a wheeled office chair with one knee to keep balance and the other leg extending out from behind him. He is seen reaching for something. It's implied he is moving faster than the other two. Above him is a clock, seemingly counting down in a metal room. The artist's signature can be seen in the left lover corner.

don’t go

(november 2, 2022)
Drawing is on a black background. In the center are the words 'i don't want to go' on top of flipped upside words 'don't let me go back to being me'. The text is of a faded light blue. The figures depicted are the Tenth Doctor right side up and the Dhawan!Doctor upside down from Doctor Who regenerating. He is looking up, the text showing those are his last words. Their heads look like fire emitting upwards with broad yellow, orange, and red brushstrokes with a sprinkle brush of the artist's signature for a glitter effect of the fire. Tenth Doctor is drawn wearing his signature brown suit with blue pinstripes and blue dress shirt. He is cropped enough to hide his tie. Dhawan!Doctor is drawn wearing Thirteenth Doctor's signature light blue coat with a dark blue inner lining of their coat's hood and Seventh Doctor's question mark sweater vest. There is a hint of Fourth Doctor's scarf on the left of him. Drawing is on a black background.

the singularity of multitudes

(october 26, 2022)
a drawing in color of samantha stephens from the show bewitched. she is dressed in a 'flying suit' of the typical witch costume. Long dark black cape connected to a forest green dress with a v-neck plunge. She is looking back behind her. There is a white outline for her to stand out from the background. The background is black with red text stacked on top, repeating the word 'WITCHES' in all caps. It is a solid orange background. This is a colorized drawing of Samantha Stephens from Bewitched and Fourteenth Doctor (The Doctor) from Doctor Who. Samantha is smiling down at him, her eyesight to his lips. She is wearing black with a slight green collar. Fourteenth Doctor is drawn with his neck craned back awkwardly with a small smile, looking slightly up at her lips. His blue-gray tie is undone and his white shirt is unbuttoned to show more of his neck and a bit of chest. Both have a white outline to separate themselves from the orange background. There is the artist's signature logo in a darker orange inbetween the two. Red background with stacked thin black text in front of a white drawing. The text reads 'TIME LORDS' repeatedly. The white drawing is of the current doctors out of order from an angle starting from the right to almost to the left of the image. Right to left: Thirteenth Doctor, seen looking down pensively. Fifteenth Doctor looking directly at the viewer through the words obscuring his view. He has a serious expression on his face. On Fifteen's left temple is a small headshot drawing of the Dhawan!Doctor from Power of the Doctor episode. He too is looking at the viewer, wide eyed. Behind Fifteen's shoulder, now on the left, is the Fourteenth Doctor. He too is now looking down in the similar manner to Thirteen except in the opposite direction. It is a solid purple background. This is a colorized drawing of Samantha Stephens from Bewitched and Fifteenth Doctor (The Doctor) from Doctor Who. Samantha is smiling up at him, her eyesight to his eyes. She is wearing black with a slight green collar. She had black lipstick with green highlight, her mouth open as if talking to him. There is a thumb on the far left depicting as if she is side hugging him. Fifteenth Doctor is drawn wearing Fourteen's blue coat, hugging Samantha from the side of her. He is smiling, as if what was being said was funny. Both have a white outline to separate themselves from the orange background. There is the artist's signature logo in a darker purple inbetween the two.
