I’ve curated another starter pack, this time to make it easier to find artists working in the illustration and comics fields! (If you qualify to be on this list but are not on it let me know, I will fill it up until it hits the 150 limit!)

This year kind of sucked, but @giulia-lalli.bsky.social and I are ramping up to release DRAGONPROOF Aat @ahoycomicmags.bsky.social in the spring, and people DID rediscover Atlantis Wasn’t Built for Tourists this year. Proud of what I managed to do, even if I wish for more.

Since I don’t have any paid gigs running right now… I decided to make my own project and work on my illustrating skills.

This year just keeps getting better…Looks like I am going to have to shut down my webpage.. the hosting has increased in price by an insane amount this year (probably due to AI “benefits”)… does anyone recommend hosting services for portfolios? - I need something temp until I sort a new website…

What is everyone’s thought’s on ArtStation these days? I basically stopped posting there due to the stuff they were doing around the war in Ukraine and their AI positioning..

Twitter is a misinformation machine and will eventually result in terrible things happening to someone.

"Sydney man Naveed Akram said he received death threats after he was wrongly identified on X as one of the gunmen, with some posts including personal information like his university."
Why social media was flooded with lies after the Bondi shooting
US social media platform X incentivised the spread of inflammatory misinformation in the wake of the Bondi Beach shootings, a digital media expert has said.

Being inspired by artists like Frazetta and the illustrators from the old TSR books - especially Brom and Tony DiTerlizzi - and also by so many comic artists.. seeing their work made me want to draw. Turned out I might be better at colour than drawing - but they were the original inspiration.
With all this awful news going on i wanna ask this question once again to fellow artists and general creatives. What got YOU into art? what sparked that motivation to start writing? what made you wanna pick up a camera and start taking pics? Like share with us your reasons.

I finished up my Jason Vorhees sketch from a couple of weeks back. I love the Friday the 13th series, easily one of my favourite horror franchises. It would be cool to see a comic series with Jason…
