Ko-Fi PWYW Sketches Closed

What it says on the tin: I'm no longer accepting PWYW commissions via Ko-Fi. Any current orders will be filled or, if necessary, refunded, but I am not taking on any more. The Ko-Fi page will continue to stand as a tip jar, but this is mostly in case I decide to use it for something else in future, though I will not be linking it anywhere.

Thank you all so much for the outstanding generosity you showed me with your orders. It was a lot of fun, and I truly don't deserve such kindness. Be well. Cheers.

But I don't want-

HUSH!

Another redraw/ fake screencap for @mandrawsdog's AU. I have been rolling this around in my head for ... ages, I wanna say. It didn't come out looking as cool as it was in my head, but ah well.

Made the weird basin-thing into part of an elephant skull for thematic reasons, and also because it looks cool.

Designs are over here.

Fart Night 2025

aint that the vidya gaem wit the funnee danse

Art Fight 2025 begins in just a few hours. If you feel like drawing my ugly OC in the hopes that I'll draw yours, nobody's stopping you: https://artfight.net/~ManDrawsDog

This month will be focused on filling Ko-Fi commission orders and trying too hard on AF pieces. Anything else I shit out (which will likely be nothing) will be a "bonus". If I disappear for a little bit just hang tight, I'll be back at it shortly.

Have fun. Or don't. I'm not your fuckin' dad.

a lot of cats concept art leaked, have an opinion?

i saw and i was beside myself with joy! but it also hurt me so lmao [for those who haven't seen the leaks yet, click here]

no idea if any of these designs were considered finalized, but they're all so brilliant. people who've criticized Amblimation's tendency towards geometric character designs can eat my crackhair, the shape design of these characters alone is enough to convince me they'd be gorgeous in movement. this film would've been to cats what Balto is to dogs, i'm sure of it. they even lean into that sort of Beatrix Potter-adjacent anthropomorphism where they've got cat bodies pulling people poses, which is both my fave and probably the closest a 2D rendition of cats would get to Andrew Lloyd Webber's desire for humanoid movement over literal depictions of the animals

the main unfortunate thing for me is that i'm the type of dweeb who eternally mourns the death of unique, technically-strong creative projects. my heart's been aching over the death of Amblimation's Cats since i first heard of its existence. in my head it's in a gloomy, rundown cemetery right next to Disney's My Peoples and Henry Selick's The Shadow King, and bitch you KNOW i leave flowers there regularly!

ugh, pardon the ramble. it comes from a place of adoration, clearly lol. if i ever manage to get myself under control for long enough before i die, i'd love to reillustrate Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats in a similar style. i rarely ever discuss it, but the 1998 filming of Cats was a childhood favorite and the musical itself is still, despite its flaws and the disgusting recent(ish) film remake tanking its reputation, very close to my crusty little heart

artfight's almost here so i felt the need to canonize Mascot's human form in case any non-furries wanted to draw him fsr :)

opinion on The Amazing Digital Circus?

don't have any opinion on the show itself because i've never been interested enough to watch it. its probably fine

but i've never felt interested in watching it because of the crass, cynical commercialism of its marketing/production and the overplayed premise of cute, child-friendly characters with BIG SCARY TRAUMA OH NO(tm)

aside from that making it feel like Garten of BanBan but much less ugly, it retains that BanBan aura by feeling like its just cashing in on every other successful, similar property before it, like it knew its premise alone (and its clearly sizable marketing budget) would pre-establish a fanbase and secure those day one merch sales and near-instant brand loyalty. only props they get is making it a cartoon instead of a game, these things are a dime a dozen on itch.io

it feels like its motivated less by the construction of interesting art and more by finding a modern, internet-savvy way of making $$$. this'd be less egregious if it didn't posit itself as a Cute Widdle Indie Sewies we need to support with our dollar or else it's gonna tank (how many dollars do they need? idk, they won't say, just keep buying their sweatshop plushies or else the series'll die!) but that's all just a dishonest part of the marketing, and fsr i've gotten tired of marketing that's dishonest

i.e. outside of discussing it as a microcosm of fandom-driven capitalist/consumerist goof shit, i don't care about it at all

[mandrawsdog]

Idk just felt like leavin' this ask to basically say that you're fuckin' goated with the sauce. Have a gay day amigo <3

at risk of sounding too overtly mopey, i really don't deserve all the kindness you folks give me. doesn't stop me from being grateful for it though

thank you for the sweet sentiment <3 stay gold, be safe

[mandrawsdog]

Roly Poly ("Rolly")

Male • The Largest • Famished

Rolly is the middle child of the original 15, though everyone always assumes he's the oldest. He's often mischievous and occasionally cunning, but he's also gentle and loyal to those he cares about. His primary misfortune in life is his clumsiness and accident-prone nature. He's not one for conflict, "Why can't everyone just get along?"
