Hey guys! I’m back once again with more grumps fanart because I’m really into their stuff right now. (I’m working on more bmc art too I’m just so busy nowadays).

Anywho! This was inspired by the Power Hour where they did duct tape prom dresses! For those who haven’t watched it, they take “awkward photos” at the end (refs will be under the cut) and I thought they were so silly so I wanted to draw them. But like. As if they were actual dresses and such. (And as if they’re actual teenage girls at Homecoming. I know they’re prom dresses but because of the time of year I went with Hoco instead).

I took some liberties with the dresses for sure, but I like them a lot, and they are still heavily inspired by the originals, so I hope the enjoy too!

This picture was the one I used for pose reference! I knew I wanted to do a pose from the actual “photo shoot” and this one was my favorite, so I went with this one!

These are the other references too! As you can tell, I definitely took some liberties with their dresses, but I hope they still come across as honoring them.

Finally, this is the reference I used for Arin’s hair color! Since I was taking liberties with the dresses anyway, and they’re meant to be actual high school girls in the drawing, I figured having pink and blonde highlights instead of the blonde streak would be cute.

Drew my kiddos! I drew them traditionally for my birthday and then my friend redrew them for me so I decided to digitalize them! The traditional versions will be under the cut!

Hey guys! So, this isn’t the first time I’ve posted something Grumps adjacent before, but this is the first time I’ve just posted art of them without it being related to another fandom.

This was made for the banner contest on discord- except this is the original at it’s full size (I had to make it 960/540 so the quality went down in the actual submission)

I hope you like it! I tried a new style with Arin’s facial hair so I hope it came across.

Did somebody say Cassidy dressed as Hello Kitty??

No, they didn’t, but I took it upon myself to draw her anyway :)

Happy Pride Month! I have a couple of other Pride drawings I’m working on with my OCs, but I have some Cassie for you in the mean time!

This drawing is based on this post!

Seymour is in this drawing too (both in the pictures and asleep in their bed)

Probably never gonna finish this, but I drew college Michael :)

Left is his everyday, middle is his work uniform (I’m weak for barista Michael in college), right is his pajamas

I usually post art on this account, but since the ask was on my main account, it made more sense to post it there. Reblogging it here so it’s with the rest of my art.

Christine 🌳

🌳: Draw a character taking a nap under a tree.

I hope you don’t mind, I drew my transmasc Christine, Seymour, instead of regular Christine!

I decided to draw him napping around sunset to help practice my shading (very proud with how it turned out), and I decided to have him designing costumes for a play or musical he’s writing! (It was either that or poetry- I think he’d enjoy both). Also- he’s wearing Jeremy’s (or- in this case, Cassie’s) cardigan because I love stagedorks/musicalgeeks.

Thanks so much for the ask!

I drew them again! I still don’t have a name in mind, but I’ve been calling the drawing “Spunky” so there is that. Alternate name for the drawing was “She Was a Skater Boy” in case you were curious haha. This is the first time I’ve drawn them digitally or with color, and I’m really happy with the drawing!

More under the cut!

First off we’ve got the original version of the character and the first redraw I ever did, both being pencil exclusively. I always had colors in mind, but I didn’t want to use them I guess until now?

Then we have them without their accessories. I show this because I’m proud of how the body turned out and I think it’s easier to see it when the fishnets aren’t there.

(Also in case you’re curious about the bandages and bruising on their side, they like to rollerblade and their injuries are from them wiping out)

Uh oh, another character sheet has appeared

[sometimesthisdudedraws]

We’re on a roll today besties! (Ignoring the fact I started this drawing about a month and a half ago and it took me until now to want to finish it 🫣).

I’m a bit early for pride stuff, so I’ll hopefully do another pride drawing with my OCs when June hits. Until then, here’s Cassie and Seymour for Pride together!

I need to say also, I originally gave Cassie a shirt with bi stripes and a fuchsia skirt, and then I came back to it another day and hated it, so instead we went with dinosaurs :)

Cassie has the bi flag and Seymour has the pan flag and the demisexual flag. Then, of course, they’re both holding the trans flag.

I love them and am really glad I finally was able to finish this drawing, because I’ve been wanting to finish it for a while but just have been struggling with motivation (until the last one I posted- thank goodness).

Hey guys! I had this idea for a drawing the other day of Cassie and Michael going to a game grumps live show together and dressing up, and so I drew it, and I actually drew it digitally which makes me really happy because I’ve been having digital art block since the new year started! Yay!

Here’s the drawing! Cassidy’s outfit is inspired very very very heavily by the Danny Sexbang costume and Michael’s is pretty much one for one Arin’s one costume for Starbomb that he has on the Player Select album cover!

I haven’t drawn Cassie with anyone other than Seymour since I started drawing her, but I love the idea of her doing fun stuff with Michael!

This would be when they’re adults, methinks.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy!

Hey hey hey !!!!

Just some traditional stuff with Cassie and Seymour.

[sometimesthisdudedraws]

Hey, friends! We’ve got a bit of a different one this time! This is my first of 8 bmc OCs that I have with my good friend, Moth (they don’t have tumblr unfortunately, or I’d tag them).

Also, in their canon, they’re much younger than how I’m drawing them, because I wanna draw their more adult designs, so the character sheets are more like their teenage or adult versions of themselves.

If you’d like to learn more of the lore surrounding these characters, starting with Marcus, this is a good post to learn with.

I’m already in the process of drawing his sister, Ruby, and I’m hoping to do this with all of the kids! It may take longer for the Mellinger kids to have character sheets as we sort of explore the kids’ identities and styles, but I’d like to do this with all of them.

Another character sheet :D

This is Abbie! She’s one of my older OCs, not quite as old as Brianna and Leighanne, but still up there! I aged her up to be a young adult with everyone else instead of a child, but to compromise, she’s the youngest so far.

Her first alt outfit is because she’s going to school to be a lawyer!

[sometimesthisdudedraws]

Sad OC things :)

I wanted to draw something to establish the fact that Brianna (left) does canonically smoke, specifically cigarettes. I wasn’t sure what to do to establish it, so I eventually decided on depression hours.

Brianna is having a really bad day and is taking a smoke break, Leighanne (right) is just trying to comfort her.

OCs!!

I’ve shared Darren already before, but here’s more characters connected to him. On the left is Darren’s boyfriend, Wesley, and on the right is Darren’s twin sister, Cersie!

[sometimesthisdudedraws]

First redraw on this account!

This is (slightly older) Mabel Pines on Valentine’s Day!

I love the design of her outfit so much in this one, especially her shoes, and I hope you like it too!
