Thank you to everyone who stopped by at arma!! Duster's test results came in this morning, so here's an update for everyone invested!

The culprit of the sinus infection is YEAST 🔪 He's having oral and topical antifungals added to his regiment, so hopefully we can get these suckers!!
A small stack of folded zines. The title reads: "A zine about my sick pigeon (if you wan a help pay his vet bills)". Below is a drawing of a scruffy pigeon. Below that an arrow points to the drawing and labels it "this is Duster" A photo of a scruffy pigeon resting on one leg. He is looking out a window. The sky is purple because the sun is setting

Much better!! Still too scared to break out my proper inks, gonna go back to comic work until I'm feeling brave lol
The carved pigeon block next to some white prints on black paper again. This time the prints are much neater and have next to no unwanted noise. The block has had all excess rubber cut off

Hey, that's functional!!
The pink rubber block, carved pigeon and words now covered in white paint. Around it are 5 small black cards that have been printed in white. They're patchy and there's some noise round the edges, but they're largely legible A closeup of the least messy print A closeup of the least messy print

Success I think?? Or at least not total failure. Gonna clean out the empty space bits and then try it out, I suppose!
It's the same pigeon on a pink rubber block again. This time everything but the negative space has been carved out

Is it wise to test how small I can physically carve something ON MY FIRST TRY? Probably not, but it's going well I think. I'm still scared of the interior lines, but it's time for dinner, so that's a problem for later!
The outline of the pigeon and words have been carved The same block again, but from a different angle so the shadows are more prominent, showing the carving

There. Time for the scary part (carving). Also to evacuate this room because I do NOT trust my foolish son (a dove) around rubber shavings. No matter how well I clean, he will find one and he will eat it
The pigeon and text on the pink rubber have now all been cleaned up with pencil

We are... transferring
on a tablet screen is a drawing of a pigeon and "AnonSpice" written backwards. The image is copied again onto paper, then onto a sheet of pink rubber. The image on the rubber is mostly a blury "carbon copy", but the wings have been clarified with pencil

Oh hey, #TransDayOfVisibility !! I'm trans n while none of my current comics focus on being trans, they do feature various trans characters! You may perceive them!

Text: These characters are TRANS, perceive them! Image: the word "trans" is the colour of the trans flag. Below, a simple lineless drawing of the Knight and the Dragon. The Knight proudly waves an agender flag while the Dragon holds no flag but waves awkwardly Text: These characters are TRANS, perceive them! Image: the word "trans" is the colour of the trans flag. Below, a simple lineless drawing of two pigeons. Bitternfleck (black) holds a trans flag in his beak and smiles wearily. Ermineleaf (grey) holds a nonbinary flag, chest puffed proudly

OH MAN, I've also got a chronic case of "only drawing comics" right now lmao
Here's some stuff from the last few months + a sneak peak at some things I'm prepping for #OverloadNZ c:<

I tag!! Anyone who sees this and wants to join the train! (Too shy to ping anyone lol)
A greyscale scene of a Mammoth Steppe with distant mountains and clear sky. Three mammoths walk in the background, one of which is a calf holding the trunk of an adult. In the foreground, two Fleet Fangs (Homotherium), Bat (black with pale stripes) and Dart (pale with dark spots), are investigating an armadillo. The armadillo is balled up as Dart swats at it and Bat sniffs the hidden creature. A ringneck dove smiling and holding a simplified mistletoe sprig in its beak while it struts to the right Two anthropomorphic cats dancing. Chital (long pale fur, bobbed tail) sways backwards and holds her hand up. Leeside (short brown fur, scruffy face) stoops and looks up at her, beaming. Father dancing with daughter energy. The background is nebulous and purple. Behind Leeside are thistle flowers and behind Chital are hollyhocks. Various sticker designs on a yellow background. Assan (grey gryphon) is loafing, eyes closed and smiling peacefully. A pigeon pops out of a trashcan holding the trans pride flag in its beak. A brachiosaurus (green with warm yellow underparts) bends it's neck to look over its shoulder. Clay (mudwing dragon, orange and brown) smiles and lies on his back, legs and tail curled upwards like a playful dog. In front of and partially covering them all is a sketch of a triceratops that looks like it's been scruffed like a cat, limbs hanging and eyes spaced out

Thank you for making this!! Last time I did a biz-card run of an entire alley was before everyone started moving to Bsky, it's nice to get more kiwis in my feed 😭
I'd love to be added too! I'm tabling at overload, but I'm a late acceptee (someone dropped out) so no surprise I'm not on the list lol
A scrawny green and orange dog with the feet and head of a parrot sits in a prison cell. Wood-ear mushrooms sprout from his back. Beaming and wagging his tail, he offers a handful of mushrooms to a guard passing in the hallway. The guard is a stocky, cream, cat-like gryphon with the head of a dromaeosaur. They smile politely, but their snout and brow are furrowed in a grimace of discomfortA scrawny green and orange dog with the feet and head of a parrot sits in a prison cell.

Food for the cleanup crew!!

A brushtailed possum/white ibis griffon on a bench in the woods and offers a skewer of meat to a falcon/snow leopard gryphon. On the table are a bowl of liver and honeyed hearts and a bowl of cocleas (fried snails). In the background is a giraffe/woodpecker gryphon hauling debris around, encouraged by a toucan/lemur gryphon. The palette is grey-blue and dull purple. It's overcast

Scallion is NOT enjoying the autumn cyclones. Rain is one of their LEAST favorite weathers, actually

[ #gryphon #griffon #art ]
A bushbaby/magpie gryphon hunched on a branch in the jungle. It is raining heavily. In their hands they hold a large leaf above their head, but still look thoroughly miserable in the weather. Overall the scene is blue-green and overcast

Tree planting season in the North! I like to think these two have got some grove somewhere that they're slowly populating with trees year by year c:

(Art from 2021)
A small bobcat/ground finch gryphon sits on her haunches and digs a hole in the dirt. Her right paw is missing from the wrist down. A beardog/raptor gryphon towers over her, looking over his shoulder with furrowed brows and keeping watch. They are surrounded by wild grass and trees in varying stages of growth. The ocean is in the background. The scene is overall blue-grey and overcast.

Moth infestation in the Moutain Kingdom... From personal experience, the only way to get rid of moths is to throw the whole house away c':
She can't throw the mountain away, but she can throw things off of it, go girl go

[ #gryphon #griffon #art ]
A koala/raptor gryphon bodily hurling a sack of flour off the side of a grassy cliff. Moths flutter in the air around it, mountains are in the distance. The scene is purple-tinted, suggesting morning

Ros is out searching for Funny Ground Monkey rain or shine, but he does have a cloak for when the weather's particularly bad (it also helps camouflage his Bright White Wings, not that it does a very good job when he's flapping about)

(Art from 2021)

[ #gryphon #griffon #art ]
A brushtail possum/australian white ibis clings to the fork of a tree surrounded by leaves, eyes wide and looking down. There is a rumpled cloak on his back. It's a dark night and it's raining

Scallion securing their windows w/ a freshly oiled pelt in preparation for storm season to blow them in and annihilate their room. Such is life (art from 2021)

[ #art #gryphon #griffon ]
A bush baby+magpie griffon stretches up on their hind legs, brow furrowed and ears folded back in concentration. They are nailing a pelt to the window frame. In the foreground, the rest of their room is visible. It is simple and made of logs and branches lashed and woven together. On the ground are two balls of wool. Up front is the corner of a table, a simple drop-spindle of wool sits on it. The whole image is pink-toned, suggesting early morning

Oh hey it's Starflight!
Lets all stare at him.

That scene where he’s taken to the meeting place and all the nightwings are hanging from the ceiling like bats just struck me as fun to draw!
