The Last Cowboy Website Shutdown - April 25th

So those of you who have been around for a while probably remember my sci-fi webcomic, The Last Cowboy. I started it in 2012 and finished the story in 2020 with around 400 pages of content.

It's been 4 years since I completed it, and I’ve made the decision to shut down The Last Cowboy’s website.

Hosting is just too expensive for me now, and it just isn’t worth it for me to keep the site running with no more content being made for this story. I just wanted to notify everyone in advance, so I'll be posting this on every social media that I regularly update.

I already have a personal backup of the site, but if you want to keep a copy of my work I’d advise that you make your own.

Alternatively, you can read the comic through the Webtoon mirror or by downloading the PDF through itch.io, which is free with the option to leave a tip if you want.

I’ve been working on a bunch of different projects since finishing this one, which you can check out through my carrd or my linktree.

You can also subscribe to my patreon, where I post all of my artwork before posting it on other socials. (Note: You have to be over 18 since I sometimes post NSFW art there as well) You also don’t need to be a paying subscriber, there is an option to follow for free! You just have to wait around 3 days before the paid subscriber-only posts become public.

Thanks for reading and enjoying The Last Cowboy! I hope you guys will stick around for everything I have planned in the future!

INTRO WEEK

this week is all about your artistic identity ... technically, you don't have to draw anything new this week if you have some art that already fits. the starter days are:

1 ⭐ self portrait who are you? it doesn't have to be you IRL .. if you feel more comfortable drawing a fursona or mascot, that's fine too! if you don't wanna draw, you can also just share old self portraits today and talk about why you drew yourself that way!

2 🤍 inspirations see how this day doesn't have a star? that means it's optional and you don't have to do it at all! but if you really wanna- tell us all about what inspires you to create art! this could be anything from the people that inspire you, the shows you like, the pins on your big messy pinterest board, or concepts that you're drawn to! you can draw something about it, talk about it, or just post your inspirations! anything is fine

3 ⭐ fav thing to draw what do you like drawing most? backgrounds? animals? one specific animal? bust of your oc facing left? cars? the same anime boy over and over and over? no judgement!! show us :)

_____

STUDY WEEK

this is the week we actually start drawing from reference! polished art is not required at all, quick sketch studies are fine! please don't burn yourself out

4 🤍 plant

5 🤍 body

6 ⭐ animal

7 🤍 object

8 🤍 food

9 🤍 face

10 ⭐ hand

these ones are pretty self explanatory! you can do them as realistic studies, or adapt them into your own art style, it's all fine! you can reference from your own photos or from resources on the web.. have fun!

_____

COLOUR WEEK

this is the week for playing with palettes and working on your colour theory skills! if you're really struggling with these ones, don't worry about drawing scenes or characters, you can just have fun splashing colours around on an abstract canvas!

11 🤍 RGB a set or primary colours typically used in digital/screen art - red, green and blue!

12 🤍 CMYK a set of primary colours typically used in traditional/print art - cyan, magenta, yellow ... and key (black!)

for both of these days ↑ you can add in black and white. and feel free to combine the two days into one, if you're struggling with a three-colour palette! use all six!

13 ⭐ WARM COLOURS the warm side of the colour wheel, reds oranges and yellows!

14 🤍 MONOCHROME monochrome doesn't mean black and white ... it means one colour! that can be any colour at all- shades of red, shades of purple, shades of green .. or yeah, grey if you really want!

15 🤍 COMPLIMENTARY complimentary colours are the ones opposite each other on the colour wheel! they're kinda married

16 🤍 YOUR FAV COLOURS pick any palette that works for you! where's your comfort zone? what looks nice to you? what colour combos do you always go back to?

17 ⭐ COOL COLOURS the cool side of the colour wheel, purples, blues and greens!

_____

CREATIVITY WEEK

this week is all about vibes! try to create something that matches the mood of the prompt .. they're vague on purpose! don't overthink it, just draw from the heart!

18 🤍 SMALL you could draw something that's really small, like an ant .. or draw on a canvas that's really small .. or use a really small brush .. get creative with it!

19 🤍 DANGER try to capture the adrenaline .. the rush .. the fear that you associate with the word danger!

20 ⭐ SOFT soft colours, soft textures, soft vibes ... whatever makes you comfy!

21 🤍 MIDNIGHT darkness and secrecy .. spooky witchy vibes .. the tranquility of a forest at night .. the fun of a late-night party .. there's lots of ways you can take this!

22 🤍 POWER what does this word make you think about? superpowers? control and oppression? literal electrical power? something else?

23 🤍 CHILL chill as in calm? or chill as in cold? who knows .. it's up to YOU!

24 ⭐ LOUD try to draw something that feels LOUD! BRASH! IN YOUR FACE! how can you convey sound through art?

_____

FUN + GAMES WEEK

this week is just for enjoying yourself! take it easy and have fun! also .. another reminder! there are skippable prompts! if you're tired and struggling to get to the finish line, please don't hesitate to skip a day!!! or multiple days!! as many as you need!!!

25 🤍 TRY A NEW ART STYLE copy the art style of a show you like, ask a friend if you can try their style, draw the eyes a new way, develop a totally new style on the spot... whatever you want!

26 🤍 DRAW WITH YOUR NON-DOMINANT HAND righties, draw with your left! lefties, draw with your right! ambidextrous nation ... our time to show off!

27 ⭐ DRAW WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED don't peek! try to draw something without looking! if you really want, you can colour it with your eyes open after you draw the lines/sketch with your eyes closed... but please try not to cheat with the actual drawing part!

28 🤍 RE-DRAW SOMETHING OLD find some old artwork you like, or something you feel like you can do better on now, and give it another go!

God I love a woman who could and would kill me

[zorinanana]

I avoided playing Genshin Impact for a very very long time because I knew I would like it and unfortunately I was right. Here are two non-human twinks who I think should kiss each other (they have never canonically met)

[zorinanana]

I made some art for Leoide Week a while back, and a couple of oneshots too.

[zorinanana]

My little brother.

[zorinanana]

wow I can make art for you!!!

New commission sheet! I can draw your original characters, avatars, fursona, fanart, whatever! Contact me through DMs or my e-mail at zcoughart@gmail.com!

More info, add-ons and examples are on my carrd: https://zorinaart.carrd.co/

Icons are a new thing I'm offering, they're a small color illustration. They don't have to be a literal icon either, this is also what I'd file chibi characters or headshots under!

[zorinanana]

This is the piece I made for the TWST Horror Zine!!! I'm especially happy with how the lighting turned out on this lol.

god i wish i wouldn't have to explain the intricacies of the neopets economy to you guys to give the full context for this but. the new neopets team that took over from jumpstart pledged that they were going to curb the inflation of rare items, which is great because a lot of rare items are worth literally hundreds of millions of neopoints, they are unbuyable unless you've been playing actively for 20 years. they did this earlier with a site festival that included random loot boxes, some of which had Unbelievably Fucking Rare And Precious items worth 200 million neopoints apiece.

well.

today they have gone a step further. by releasing this year's trick-or-treat bags. and having the trick-or-treat bags be stuffed to the brim with unbelievably fucking rare stamps, weapons, paint brushes, defense magic, and other unbuyables. (all prohibitively expensive and in-high-demand types of items.)

jellyneo, the premier neopets website, has recorded prices of some items plummeting from 2,000,000 neopoints to 4,000 neopoints IN THE LAST THREE HOURS. this is when most people haven't even heard about the event or OPENED THEIR BAGS YET.

and of course. cherry on top. 20-year-old account holders are crytyping on the site events neoboard about how mean and cruel it is to make rare stamps part of the prize pool, because their entire identity hinges on being part of the neopian bourgeoisie, and they are having MELTDOWNS over their assets being devalued until they're part of the lowly proletariat.

this is a children's game for children btw.

none of the money is real.

i'm having such a good time.

I already love this weird little salmon gremlin. all you gotta do to make me like a character is give him low self-esteem and shark teeth and make him juuuuust a little unhinged

[zorinanana]

A new print I finished recently! I just got them in the mail today, they're sparkly holographic and they look soooo good. I'll be selling them at my next show!

[zorinanana]

talk crap get whacked

I love Tinkaton a very normal amount

[zorinanana]

Sometimes I just want these little gremlins to be happy.
