wanted to do a more minimalist discworld inspired piece with the elephants and the discworld inside the turtle, so here it is :) using the text from small gods ("the turtle moves")

the font is orbitron and it's an open license font from the lovely people at the league of moveable type. normally i try to handletter my stuff, but i really wanted a sci-fi-ish blocky font for this.

for all that the discworld is one of my absolute favorite book series ever, i feel like i haven't really done much fan art from it at all (idk sometimes things are so big/important to you, it's hard to even do fanart for them somehow). i mostly just wanted a more simple/graphical design for a shirt for myself. might do a limited screen print run or stickers? but don't want to run afoul of the estate either so idk (it's available as wallpapers through my patreon)

here's a 15 sec timelapse if you're interested!

idk which "learning how to draw/paint" day it is anymore i stopped counting lmfao

here's death of rats aka the grim squeaker from the discworld series 🐀💀❤️

"If there is a Big Rat, and I hope there is, it would not talk of war and death. It would be made of the best we could be, not the worst that we are. No, I will not join you, liar in the dark. I prefer our way. We are silly and weak, sometimes. But together we are strong. You have plans for rats ? Well, I have dreams for them." Recently I've read "The Amazing Maurice and his educated rodents" and, guys, why nobody warned me ?! I was expecting just funny take on Pied Piper from Hameln, I didn't know i would get debate about consciousness and self-control with one of the intensive moments in the series.

people skills!

[id: a traditional drawing of moist von lipwig from terry pratchett’s discworld. he is turned away from the viewer, glancing over his shoulder with a grin and a wink. in one hand, he tips his postmaster hat. the other is crossed behind his back. he is lifted off his feet by a whirlwind of letters, which transform into dollar bills underneath a yellow spotlight. the drawing uses a limited color palette of blue, green, yellow, and brown, with additional collage elements.]

No seriously, what (or who) possessed so many people to draw the Ankh-Morpork city watch helmets looking specifically kinda like spanish morion or cabasset helmets.

You know?

These

Like i get it, it was very popular type of helmet, but it doesnt really evoke in me the idea of fantasy cops... Mostly just spanish conquistadors.

.

*edit

I know the answer is Paul Kidby, but then what possessed him.

I’ve been reading a bunch of the discworld books by Sir Terry Pratchett lately. A couple of my faves are Monstrous Regiment and The Truth. I’d like to imagine this is what happened between those two books.

Sometimes I like to think about how, with the introduction of newspapers to the Disc and the re-establishment of the Ankh-Morpork post office, Vetinari must be getting some absolutely wild shit in the mail every day
