I did the Frieren meme. To be fair to the original artist, this is definitely the hardest pose to draw a face in without reference. I don’t think I got it 100%.

New page! This page was a lot more work than it looks like it was, but it was totally worth it. Welcome to the Kuiper Belt. www.phobos-comic.com

“…This trend is accelerating. By 2030, we will reach instrumentality. That’s the point at which they build a truck so big, the whole world fits inside it. But only if you can reach high enough to lift it into the cab.”

New page! New page! I took some big swings with this page, and I think they paid off. www.phobos-comic.com

Add to this that some of oil's most ardent cultists don't believe there ever WAS a primordial state for the Earth, that oil is not the entrapped essence of the dead, and that it's impossible for the world to return to it. And yet, their holy symbols are seashells and dinosaurs.

If you see this, post a vampire that isn’t Dracula.

(I was going to skip this, but then I remembered that I actually DO have a vampire, from this alphabet I drew a long time ago).

I was first introduced to Mafalda while living in Taiwan. A friend gave me a copy of the books in Chinese, and was surprised to learn that I’d never heard of it. It was a popular comic in Taiwan, as it is in many parts of the world, especially South America (it’s Argentinian).

I get to start drawing Phobos and Deimos again tomorrow! To celebrate, I will answer questions about any and all P & D characters. No huge spoilers, but maybe some minor ones. Ask me about my OCs!

Scratch an AI bro, find a eugenicist. My job for the past 20 years has been teaching kids. I have seen the full scope of human intelligence. I think I‘ve got a firmer grasp on what humanity is capable of than this guy, whose AI use is not doing his brain any favours (according to studies).

Animorphs! I know these books are being re-released with new covers (and they're very good), but I already had these in mind so I went ahead and finished them anyways.

Not quote tweeting the original because yes, Haitians ABSOLUTELY deserve the credit for being the first and most important domino in the abolition of slavery in the modern world. BUT ALSO, there have been people trying to ban slavery for as long as there’s been slavery, and sometimes they succeeded.

Here's the original (flipped, because I've had this manga for a long time). I was going to put them next to each other in the same post, but that just emphasized the inferiority of my imitation. Regardless, this was fun to do and I learned a lot. I want to do more redraws.

I don’t do a lot of commissions, and I don’t have to field a lot of scammers either, but if you haven’t spent enough time on any of my social media to see the many times I’ve linked to the websites that have my email address, I don’t believe you know what the art looks like that you’re commissioning
