#amateur illustrator

[icarusredwings]

Not my typical thing but I think this would be a good time to mention that on top of writing, being a great dad, and a massive nerd, Im an amateur charity illustrator. Just realized I didn't tell you guys that.

Closed at the moment, but I draw stuff for charity organizations/donations.

This is a project I most recently finished. It's a childrens book about trach care. Diggity Duck charater design and all illustrations, creative stylization by me.

^^^ That's me :) I'm not gonna leak all of it because it's not fully released but im sure it can be preordered.

Link below.

To learn more about purchasing this book (proceeds go to children in need) or donate, please visit:

(and mention me by name if you wish, I don't get anything out of it except praise from the Author and friend Daisy lol)

"The ribbon for Schizencephaly is half purple, half green. We originally started More Than Meets The MRI as an organization to help families with children with disabled because we realized the challenges after having Erikson."

Said Daisy, a mother of an angel in heaven and on earth.

This is not at all a guilt post but rather a brag. Im proud of what I do, and Im proud to be part of this.

i am being commissioned to do a children's book's illustrations and i am experiencing first hand how children are treated as stupid in media made for them

also these people do not care at all about the artists that they are paying because they only contacted me because they know i work for cheap since im an amateur, they do not know my style at all and the author had the audacity to call it anime

most of the communication is between me and the author and not the publisher and they are so used to turkey's regular cheap illustrations (because again, children are just easy money and are incapable of differentiating between good and baad books) that they called my art style anime

i know i sound like a pretentious artist but idk wtv

I've made an art book and the Kickstarter is about to launch! It has writing, illustrations, and comics similar to this one! It's called Waving at Airplanes and it's probably the largest project I've ever done (I'm quite proud of it).

The book will also include this comic, this one, plus this, and this - AND 6 additional, never-before-seen comics/illustrations! So if you happen to like those comics, it would mean a lot if you considered getting the book! You can check out the Kickstarter page here!

Since the artwork is already done, the Kickstarter is really just a pre-order (to cover the cost of having the books printed and shipped). It launches on 9/9/2024 and will last 4 weeks!

Thank you! These comics may not be my most popular, but they are the most personal to me, and the support for them is really special.

We report: there are brambles growing on the pavement. They have been escaping a garden for years now, and they hang over the road - full of flowers and unripe fruits at this point in the year. The sky is heavy and dark, but not in a stormy way. It will keep carrying the weight.

yeah ur addition abt brushes mattering is so true, i dont think i really came into my current style until i tried out aliasing for my lineart

exactly! ill never understand brush gatekeeping (other than for certain reasons, like how i wont share brushes that ppl have given me in private bc theyre not mine to share, sometimes ppl wont share them bc they want to sell them etc) or saying it doesnt matter lol.... ppl who do so are always like "um having my brushes wont make u draw exactly like me! 🙄" like yeah, they wont. that's not what anyone expects. but also, if they wont magically make someone draw exactly like you then what exactly is your problem with sharing them lol what are you afraid of !

i've used TONS of brushes from artists who have shared them and i hate most of them because they don't fit my way of working even after editing settings, which is why i know they do matter when you get your hands on brushes that fit your line weight, strokes, style, texture, preferences, etc. if that makes sense....

Took part in an art challenge that involved drawing an emo version of Dark Magician Girl; I think I ended up going in a more scene direction though.
