Here's a fun doodle of Judge Dredd from @2000ad.bsky.social I did a bit back after a few friends got excited to see Dredd in my style hehe ^_^

Honestly pretty happy with it for something that took less than an hour, and felt fitting to draw as a resident of the future Mega City One lol

Red Dirt Ruin final pages 19 and 20!

Thanks to all who read my comic & if you want to read back, check my profile or link in the bio!

My next one shot "Ghost of Gennad" is in the works with a hopeful debut at Thought Bubble in Nov along some smaller comics featuring Rita & Josey so stay tuned! ^_^
A comic page. Josey looks back while defensively bracing herself against Rita and calls out "Where the hell did you come from and why are you here?!" The person retorts that they could say the same about R&J and how they could let exploring the ship slide but going through their console was crossing a line. Josey looks back at the hologram and says "hold up your console?" The mysterious man tells them they don't care about the ship but threatens to leave their stuff alone. Meanwhile, Rita grabs their bag to pull out and throw a baseball while yelling "Get away from us!" Josey reaches out to Rita and begins glowing from her chest for teleporting. They embrace and glow stronger as they head home. A comic page. Rita & Josey have disappeared leaving behind just a light of where they teleported while the mysterious man remarks that Josey has the same power as him. He turns to the ball that hit him and realizes that it is not Adimasian but of Earth, something the hologram that resembles him mentions he misses. He tears up and has hope to go home for the first time. Meanwhile in Baltimore on Earth, an exterior shot of "Glenwood's Fix 'Er All" is shown and then an interior shot of Rita & Josey is shown while they chat about if these adventures are normal for Josey. Josey says yes and mentions an artifact she wants to find.

Got some yelling in around Union Station in Washington DC. These fascist bozos need to get out of this city!

Good on these people camped up in protest, especially with info to help service members not comply.

@freedcproject.bsky.social is a good place to start if you want to help fight this!

A comic page shows Rita panicking while Josey falls and attempts to catch her. Rita grabs Josey's hand but it slips out and she keeps falling while Rita screams out "Nooo!" Josey however reassures Rita, saying she has an ace up her sleeve as she teleports away with a power she harnesses from inside herself. A comic page. Josey reappears next to a door saying it was a close call and Rita runs to hug her. Scared to lose her again, Rita hugs tight and Josey offers to put the adventure on hold. Rita agrees until they see something that makes then question a lot.

Page 10 of the comic Red Dirt Ruin. Josey runs in concern for Rita after hearing them scream goddammit, but turns out Rita is just disappointed in how gutted the shuttle ship is. Josey then explains she scanned to find no disturbances for 700 Martian years. Page 11 of the comic Red Dirt Ruin. Josey goes on an infodump on her theories of the arrival of the Adimasians to Mars and how she's been looking hard, but then gets self conscious and shrinks herself down. Rita encourages her to Josey's internal panic as they realize the door to the inside of the ship is sealed and may be in better condition. Page 12 of the comic Red Dirt Ruin. Rita & Josey break open the door and notice the ship's decks are completely crumbled, leaving only the outer edges to their fright. Page 13 of the comic Red Dirt Ruin. Josey notices a door that has electrical traces open, and directs Rita to stay safe while she leads. Rita argues saying they care about Josey too but gets cut off by a loud crack and Josey falling through the floor.

Started hosting and leading a figure drawing night on a Discord server last week, and it was really fun doing art with everyone!

Honestly, for having limited time (10, 5, 2, or 1 minute) with each drawing I think they turned out really good and glad I got some practice on clothes and poses ^_^
