Raise the Colours high

Considering the current state of our weird ass society I feel a bit bad it took me so long this Pride-Month to draw something fitting. This year seemingly more than ever it feels important to state this once again:

No matter what colour of the rainbow it is that you are claiming as your personal place of being understood: It is important as are you and you have every damn right to show your colour with pride this month. I deeply hope you will have are already have the opportunity to do so.

I don’t know if anyone has ever done this before but, here ya go… The Different Types of Fanfiction! 

I probably left a few out, but these are the most common, compared to their base fiction’s canon plot. Enjoy! XD

Commission Pricelist

After a nice sale and a well appreciated feeling Squirrel we are back now to the usual prices ^^

[vangold]

Went through some insomniac crap yesterday and ended up with some video essay about the cosmic horror of living, sentient planets. So I wanted to play around with that food for thought a bit, starting up with the sun....maybe doing the rest of the solar system as well like that. Really having fun with that concept.

I didn't wanna go boring though like just giving them funny faces or a.....how can you call that? Plasona? XD

Instead I ended up googling and then rather quickly tripped over this snapshot of the sun

Just like with the artwork here - if you look closely you'll be able to see her, the lady of the sun :)

TODAY IS THE FINAL DAY OF THE SQUIRREL APPRECIATION SALE!

Also let me clarify a few things, since I don't wanna repeat myself all the time. That's kinda tiring :P

No, I don't sale originals.

No, I currently cannot sale prints, because for that I need to change the tax class first.

I currently only do Commissions, which I gladly take though, since they actually are my current main income. Thus happy to get into buis with you :3

And last but not least: I'd rather kiss Satan's butthole than to have anything to do with fracking NFT.

PS: Who doesn't read this and bluntly keeps posting "Are doing comms, DM me" and "I want this in my NFT art gallery bla blub" is a fracking bot and will be ghosted because bots smell :)

No heart feelings, Mike ;)

Blue

I'm a bit more glued to #DreamSMP at the moment - still have to get through the last season - so I'm really keen for more #artwork for the story. While Wilbur Soot himself has smeared himself with some very unattractive covers over the last few years, I can't help myself - #Ghostbur is simply one of the best characters of season 2. The whole plot with the amnesia-suffering ghost, who simply tries to blur the brutal reality with gentleness and ultimately fails tragically….. I'm just going to take Death-of-the-Author out of it here to still have fun and art with the guy :P

Squirrel Appreciation Sale

It's time for a big sale again here folks. This'll be a special unique one though.

As one or another might have heard about, something big recently happened for us. My dearest spouse - better known as everyone's favortite Dingus after struggling for 14 years with Depression and Anxiety finally managed it to finish his Bachelor of Science. And I wanna celebrate my favorite Dingus by doing this big ass sale. :3

For the next 14 days in memoriam of the 14 years struggle I put a 42% sale on all Commissions.

Empty Corners

Little attempt of painting the Backrooms. First try actually. Not the best I managed to get on canvas so far, but I think I managed to get the ambience right, which at the end of the day is the heart of the Backrooms anyway. It isn't about the levels, not about the weird bacteria-monster chasing you and what else could linger there. It's the emptiness. The idea and expectation that emptiness could end around every corner and how that expectation is being disappointed again and again.

Hey, just wanted to give a quick PSA on a new type of bot/scam going around Tumblr. I've seen these types of comments on multiple artist's posts now. All of them are from generic / empty accounts with the usual bots behavior and they always ask artists to DM them in regards to commissions.

ASSUME MALICIOUS INTENT / REPORT / BLOCK / CARRY ON WITH YOUR DAY

A couple of examples below:

FINALLY! After almost 2 weeks the paint is finally dry!!!!

This, gentlenerds has been my first attempt to draw with oil paint. Still have a lot to learn here. Two things especially:

There is dry-fastener existent for a good reason and worth the investion

Open. the. window. Unless you wanna end up on a paint-trip. (like seriously, holy shit, the smell of that paint thinner… )

Since it was the first time with this medium, I went for a less complex motive - and since I am currently some more glued to the DreamSMP again I went for the good old L'Manberg flag

The background was made of acrylic but the entire flag it oil. Honestly you can see the difference. Using oils is quite the challenge I still needa master, but boy I'm in love with how freaking vibrant the colours end up to be <333

Sou, I wanted to draw something more into cosmic direction again. I also had the urge to do something with a fuckton of eyes. Souuuuu, Biblically Accurate Angel, farted my brain =D

The fascination with christian mythology. The good guys have this thing with the bazillion eyes going while the badys talk with their butts. Now if you find any anecdotes and parallel to the current world affairs - welp, have fun with that XD

This was my first attempt at drawing with gouache. I still need to figure out how to handle and mix the colours properly, but I'm already impressed with how bright and saturated it turned out. I mean, this is the unedited image. I didn't put any filters or other bells and whistles on it. I really need to get to grips with the medium a bit more. I love how colourful this shot is! 😍
