Old work, but finally posting some scans. Zaku, cheap ink on cheaper paper. Wite out. Black brush pens I won't be using again. Color tinted after being scanned in.

Sorry for the radio silence, y'all; even digitally I'm a hermit.

It's Pride again.
I have plenty to say, but not enough characters.

Love is not a crime.
Gay people are dying in Gaza.
Trans rights are human rights.

I won't say happy PRIDE.
But I hope we have the PRIDE we need.

Today is day 10 of protesting on the corner of Paint and Main here in Chillicothe.

Protests every weekend here in #Chillicothe on the corner of Paint and Main, across from the courthouse. I'll be out as much as possible throughout the week as well. Something has to break, and it won't be my resolve.

I came here to protest the bourgeoisie and chew bubble gum.

And I'm all out of gum.

I still don't understand the thought that LLMs are the answer to art being "gatekept."

Like, Beethoven was deaf, Van Gogh was likely colorblind, Rick Allen only has one arm, and the great Tee Franklin had to re-learn to read and write.

When it comes to artistry, the only gate is *yourself*.

100% off CAIN and Magnagothica: Maleghast. Big props to Tom Bloom for doing this. These fantastic games, and very approachable.

For those in the comic world: this is the guy who made #KillSixBillionDemons

For some reason, my original videos won't post and unfortunately bluesky hates gifs. In other news, I added to that ticket I made for #lancer

I've decided all my shitpost edits are gonna get posted here, alongside my actual art, because why not. Something something cultivating social media. #eldenring #shitpost #tarnishedposting

Also, for any new followers: Howdy! I'm WIDDRSHINS, a multi-media cartoonist, comics colorist, letter, and writer!

I love all things comics, cartooning, TTRPG, or pixels.

Huge on Weird West genre/aesthetic.

I worked in mental and behavioral health and it is a HUGE influence on my art.

This was fun. Here's a ticket for a Karrakin mech tournament, known as Pankration Mekani. I wanted the tickets to reflect the opulence of the baronies, so I gilded 'em and gave them a high Manna price. (5.25 days worth of resources!) #graphicdesign #Lancer #karrakintradebaronies

Made these for one of my Lancer players, who is running an Ungrateful mechanic that is part of a mining group that calls themselves "roaches." I thought it was fun to mockup these signs, picturing how a group of rebellious workers would deface signs on the way to their worksite. #lancer #graphics

Originally posted on Instagram, but I'm working on nuking that from orbit. Lines by the great #DWJ (Daniel Warren Johnson). I colored and poorly animated it in ProcreateDreams. #cyberpunk #comicscoloring

#Colors and #cover mockup I did earlier in the years on some amazing @danielwarrenart.bsky.social lines.

Also, tonight's stream has been moved to 8:30pm EST - with Ben Wright-Heuman (cartoonist extraordinary) hosting!

I'll be chatting with AJ Easterday and Emily Cookie this Wednesday at 7PM EST about comic adaptations! What will I be discussing in particular...? I'll say this: #THESHADOW KNOWS!

The part about #insurance that gets me: I've been on every end: I was a clinician that billed to it. I've been an HC manager who led medical staff. I was a health/life insurance agent. I was licensed by OH's pharma board.

So when the agent suggests finding a GENERIC for a GENERIC, I get mad.
