I contributed to the Stroudverse Art Book project by @bobbys-not-that-small ! I made some changes to my previous art. Thank you for inviting me to this project :)

Stroudverse Art Book update!! 📖🎨

Thank you to everyone who sent in art, and apologies to the many many people whose art I couldn’t include for whatever reason, but especially if it was my short submission deadline - this was to align with the meetup today, but it’s my bad for not getting my act together sooner!

I was able to give Jonathan the book in person today and he said many things including “you’ve done me a service” 😂 He says (in essence) that he always sees so much fanart and tries to like it or save it to his phone but it can be hard to keep track of!

I have no doubt he would have looked through every page in that book then and there if we had time, but he is always so generous chatting to everyone that by the time I got to speak with him we had a few minutes and then all had to make a hasty exit from the venue!

Also it turns out although I thought I’d ordered one book, the minimum order was three, so I was also able to give a copy to Georgia, his publicist (and an absolute GEM). She LOVED IT and flipped through every page! She kept saying “oh we should print more [artwork]!”, and she said that often Gina (Jonathan’s wife) is the one who comes across different pieces of fanart and then sends them over! (Gina also saw a bit of the book later on, and obviously one is going home with the Strouds!)

Anywho, all that to say a massive thank you to everyone who creates as part of this fandom, in any way, big or small! It’s truly such a talented place ❤️

Hello LockNation artists and friends! You are all so creative, and I’m always so impressed by your art.

There’s literally SO MUCH art, I’m drowning in art, I can’t reblog art fast enough.

Each social media platform is different, and I love our little community and would love to share the amazing artwork of tumblr fans with Jonathan.

My plan is to take your art submissions and compile them into a photo book, which I will then figure out how to get to him!

PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE PROCEEDING!! THANK YOU!!

DATE TO NOTE: Midnight GMT on Friday 24th January 2025

WHAT TO SUBMIT:

Artwork can be from any Stroudverse book! You may need to specify to me which universe if it’s not clear, but I know there are other brilliant pieces out there for Bartimaeus, Scarlett & Browne etc.

Please only submit your own artwork.

Some of you are brilliant, prolific artists, but I will be limited by page numbers and I have no idea how many submissions I will get, so please only submit your favourite pieces of artwork, and not your whole portfolio! Can we please limit it to a maximum of TWO pieces of artwork per contributor. Thank you. If you upload more than two, I’ll just have to pick my own favourites 🤷🏻‍♀️

(In the event that we have more space, I’ll open up to additional submissions, but we’ll see how it goes!)

SFW artwork only please, obvs

LOGISTICS:

We’re working with Google Drive here.

Please name the file so it includes:

1. Your name (if you want to share)

2. Your tumblr url (so we can credit you!) (and also in case something goes awry and I need to contact you about resending etc.)

3. And, only if you’re happy to share, what country you are based in (because I think that would be cute)

4. If it’s your first or second submission (1 or 2)

Examples:

Bobby (bobbys-not-that-small) UK (1)

random-weird (submission 2)

If you don’t have a Google account (I.e. can’t upload to the drive), please let me know and I would be happy for you to email me the files or try to work out an alternative.

I think for virus-avoiding reasons I won’t be able to accept submissions via you guys sending me things like Dropbox or WeTransfer files.

Please submit files of a decent enough quality that they can be printed (probably in CMYK colour if able/you know what that means) but NOT humongous file sizes, else my GDrive will Freak Out!

If physical artwork, a scan is always best if possible, else a good quality photograph in bright enough lighting please. Consider zipping files if they’re big, but again, insane quality is not needed!

PLEASE NOTE:

This Google Drive will be visible to all contributors and those with the link, so please do not include personal information that you are not comfortable with others seeing.

Now, it feels a bit mean to say “only art from artists that call tumblr home”, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do for simplicity’s sake. Please can we keep it to people that predominantly share their artwork on tumblr rather than, say, people based on instagram who have an auto feature on that cross posts to tumblr. This is a project for our community, at heart.

If you have any questions about this, then please ask them in the REPLIES of this post, so Q&A doesn’t get lost in reblogs.

HOW TO SUBMIT

If you have art to submit, please DM me and I will share the Google Drive link with you directly. I ask that you don’t share this link or post it out anywhere so we can control who has access to the folder.

Be patient please! I am not always on tumblr every day, plus it’s the Christmas period for me so I’m going to be at home with family a fair amount. Uploading doesn’t take very long, and I will make sure I get back to you as soon as I can.

CUTOFF DATE FOR SUBMISSIONS:

Midnight GMT on Friday 24th January 2025

Lastly, please tell your tumblr artist friends so we can get as many people involved as we can!

Much love,

Bobby x

Artworks for @fuwafuwa-fuwa 's request "Barty art set in Tokyo".

I got this request a long, long time ago and finally drew it now. Sorry for the late response! >_<

My impression of Tokyo is "everything dense". People, products, and history are all packed into a limited space. If Bart came to Tokyo, he wouldn't be able to rest, but he would be able to get all the information he needs in one day.

[bart-mush]

I have posted the creation log! (Sorry, the explanation is in Japanese)

制作ログ、バーティミアス20周年

最近ログを残すように��てるので制作ログを置いときます！ログと言っても途中の記録というより、完成データからの振り返り。まあ何か参考になったり、楽しんだりしてもらえれば！

完成絵はこれ：

＝＝＝＝＝＝

『バーティミアス』のドタバタ感というのかエネルギーが好きなので、それを出せる構成を考えてた。あと個人的目標に「車描きたい」というのもあった

ちなみに車はスコールズ父子のやつ。グラフィックノベルとオースチンのクラシックカーを参考に。オースチンかわいいよ

用紙の縦横とかサイズは最初に決めとけばよかったなーとは思った

色は緑・紫・橙の、普段あまり使わないバランス。車は緑に決まってたのでそこから考えていった

線画はこんなかんじ。デジタルの線画はやっと最近、それなりに描けるようになったので楽しい

ベタ塗りして陰影とか反射入れて仕上げ加工。これもいままで作業的でツラく感じるとこあったけど、感覚優先で演出するようにしてからだいぶ楽しくなった

＝＝＝＝＝＝

小ネタ：

キャラ補足

キティを入れたかったなあ！

実は一回、別の表情で完成させてた。

もとからお祝い絵って感じじゃないけど、楽しい感じ足りないな？と思って変更

Happy 20th anniversary Bartimaeus!

New Bart :)

[bart-mush]

Hey Thanks for making some really cool Bartimaeus art. I recently got my wife into these books and we love recognizing scenes you drew. Your art style is amazing, keep up the great work!

Thank you, I'm happy! All the scenes in Bartimaeus are cool, and I always enjoy drawing them.

I met Rachele @doodlingraka in Tokyo and had an art trade. It was a great day!

今日は日本のTwitterトレンドワードに「バーティミアス（Bartimaeus）」がランクインした！好きな児童書をツイートするハッシュタグによって上昇したらしい。嬉しい！
