Happy New Year 2025!

[a-journalist-from-belgium]

a ton of deliberately vaguely worded information on tintin "entering the public domain in 2025" is being reported by media outlets so just to make sure we're all on the same page -

the tintin that will enter the public domain in 2025 is specifically this iteration of him from land of the soviets.

in america, copyright expires after 95 years - tintin in the land of the soviets was published in 1929. so you can do the math on that. however, any official material to do with tintin published after 1929 is still copyrighted. you're not allowed to do anything with characters like captain haddock or professor calculus given that they weren't introduced until much later. nor are you even allowed to depict tintin wearing his iconic blue jumper or plus fours!

last but not least, this only applies in america - in belgium, tintin's home country, as well as the rest of europe, copyright lasts for 70 years after the death of the creator. this means that tintin himself as a character won't be public domain until 2053! we sadly have a long time to go.

saw this pic and thought “that’s him.”

The opposite Tintin has big trust issues and no real friends at all. Except for the dog. And, well, one ward under the contract is considered a friend?

If you guys thought that I’d forget to do Snowy, think again!

I finally finished Tintin’s lil dog Snowy! 😮‍💨

Snowy was a bit of an interesting challenge. I tried to find some tutorials on how to crochet fox terriers, but I couldn’t find a good one.

So I followed a tutorial on how to crochet a Jack Russell terrier online and took a bit of creative freedom to convert it into a fox terrier.

The real challenge was embroidering the eyes, nose, and crocheting the ears and tail.

But it was so worth it!

Enjoy ☺️

Treasure Hunting

I'm just going down a rabbit hole of redrawing all the things I loved as a kid XD My library had 2 TinTin volumes that I read several times, and then I few years ago I found three of the comics in a thrift store! I genuinely love these stories

alt version under the cut with no rain. I couldn't decide which one was better
