Hey, there’s been some whispers of potentially a deal between tumblr and a company that does image collection for AI-image generation.

If anything like this gets announced I will EITHER take down all my old posts and repost them with glaze or something similar, OR I will just leave. I have an Art Station account and an instagram I never fuckin use, idk.

I’m also thinking of making a cohost account so I’ll keep y’all updated.

(Also, sorry, I am going to mis-tag this post a little in the hope that some of the people who enjoyed my trans tiktaalik piece but didn’t follow me see this)

i love your tiktaalik drawing so much !!! i recently celebrated five years on t and got the bones of tiktaalik’s fins tattooed on my arm alongside the bones of a human arm. love a transitional fossil because i’m not a fossil yet thanks to transition <3

Omg that rules!!! Congrats! I’m so glad you like it <3

I just started on T in early December. Maybe in a couple years I’ll join ya and get a tiktaalik tattoo myself?

Shout out to some of the people who’ve reblogged this with tags that made me smile :)

I read the phrase “transitioned onto land” for about the thousandth time the other day, but this time I noticed an opportunity!

A wyrm! Very proud of this drawing, which I did mostly freehanded with a ballpoint pen, so thanks for the suggestion @monster-noises!!

Nvm, art is gonna have to happen later

Entire back hurts and I’m clearly fighting off an infection so. Ow

I will still do this tho

Could you give me a suggestion for something to draw? My brain is empy

Hmmmm... My first desire whenever my brain is Completely empty for drawing is to draw just.. draping fabric? Not even a specific piece of fabric, but some fabric Draping...

But i recognize that that may be a very specific thing that I like that does not apply as an enjoyable experience universally.

So maybe a dragon? Love a dragon....

Or just a creature! Make some creature shapes and refine it into a Beast most Resplendent!

Draw a lot of little slugies... Work on weight and dimension and soft shapes (i do this always as a warm up, as a weird evolution of the more common Bean warm-up activity)

Oh! A thing I used to do in highschool was put on some action-packed tunes and see how fast I could thumbnail a scene out that the song made me think of! Once the song was over you had to stop.

Draaaaw..... a Wizard. Make the coat as elaborate as possible, big focus on the coat.

Opposite direction; draw a Cool and Sexy Robot. Interpret what that means with your own lens, possiblities are endless.

Draw a Fuckin Sick Lesbian (to go with the robot, they go hand in hand)

Try your hand at very loosely sketching some backgrounds! Mountain ranges in the distance.. trees and lakes! Real bob ross-ian type shit!

Draw an OC from your childhood if you have any, even better; recreate a Specific piece of art. Give the child in your heart the experience of seeing what they meant to make realized at last.

Get funky and draw a floral pattern~ like a bad(amazing) wallpaper, or the scarf of a cool older woman

Make something for a friend! Even an unexpected doodle of an OC can make someone's Week!

Weird abstract body horror, up to you what that means.

Make a meet the artist! Or an ootd! I was supposed to do one for my birthday but i forg o T Shit...........

Something in your artistic soul is eager to come out, i hope this helps you find it!

And also

Cause it's me.

Never a bad time to draw a Big man with some Rockin tits.

Working on a dragon-y creature :)

I wasn’t feeling great yesterday so I got it started then and I’ll try and do more of it today so I can share

Changing my PFP!!!

->

(It’ll be a cropped version of the bottom pic but y’know)

Just wanted to give a heads-up!! I’ll also probably be replacing it again soon once I can sit down and make something I like.

I started messing up the angled sections after like, the first one, and didn’t realize til later, but here’s some stickers I made of this!

SILENCE TRANSPHOBE

[jodracona-art]

Gorgosaurus libratus from the end of August, 2022. Had a ton of fun doing the texture on this one, and the colours, based on the Argentine black and white tegu, were picked by some cool people in my school’s Paleo Club!

If anyone’s curious about the alternate colour options I was debating between, I might post them later!

I am going to create art such that its beauty makes the beauty of oneself undeniable.

I don’t know how long that will take, but that is what I will do.

I’m going to become such a good artist.

I’m going to become such a good artist and I’m going to draw trans people. I’m going to draw them as they are and they’re going to be beautiful and handsome and pretty and cute and sexy and elegant and whatever else they think they aren’t.

I’m going to create beautiful art for them. For us.

When you search for transgender stuff on ArtStation it won’t be the occasional banger and a bunch of drawings by 12-15 year olds (though, all the more power to developing artists, keep it up and come on this art journey with me!)

It’ll be beautiful digital paintings of people as themselves. Accurate anatomy, interesting and dynamic poses, fun colours and outfits, I wanna give all of this to us.

I want us to be us and to love that.

Here’s an unfinished piece from early 2021 that I’m probably never gonna pick back up of Sage and Sova from VALORANT

This was one of my earliest experiments with using CSP, and one of the first times I really sat down to try and study anatomy on my own. Covered up most of it with his cloak but I’m still very glad I did it!
