Hey bro! I saw that Randy (the first one) you have! He looks so awesome! I was wondering if I could commission you one (like your first one that’s posable, his head can move, interchangeable hands, etc…) with removable clothes such as Randy’s normal geologist shirt and his tegridy shirt!

This may seem like a lot, but I was hoping if you could see this message, and if you do, I hope you could accept it.

Hi! I'm glad you like my Randy plush, that means a lot =) Unfortunately, I really can't take commissions for them, sorry =( Especially not the posable puppet-type version. They take so long and are so difficult to make, there's no way I could make them affordable or worth my time to offer!

Thanks for the interest regardless, though, it's a big compliment to know you're interested! =)

The past few months I've started a project to try and raise funds/start selling original work on RedBubble... I finally have enough I feel I can share. =)

Weird and Wonderful World is a collection of animal merch (at the moment mostly stickers, magnets, badges/buttons, cushions and notebooks) featuring animals you tend to see less made for because they're either, for example; strange, obscure or not particularly cute.

At the moment, I have merch up for Jerboas, Elephant Shrews, Whale Sharks, Red-lipped Batfish, Anteaters, Platypuses, Potoos, Tawny Frogmouths, Long and Short-beaked Echidnas and Opossums!

I also have a bunch of pride versions for the Opossum!

(Just the Opossum at the moment since I don't want to saturate my store with variations... I'm willing to make pride versions of any of the other animals (or any other pride flags!) at request though! =))

I'm also open to suggestions for other animals! =) Please take a look, or maybe pass the link on to a friend who might be interested! Thanks so much for supporting my little project!

[Just over a month ago, I held this poll, which Giacomo won (twice), but the runner up was Mela! And since she's pretty important to this comic, I feel it's only fair she gets a sheet of her own. This sheet is to scale with the one of Giacomo, too!

(Once this set of polls ends, I'll update this sheet with her full decided birthday, but since that's at least a week away, I'll put this up to be edited for now. Be sure to head over and vote if you haven't yet!)

I might put up another poll in the same vein as the original to decide which ref sheet to draw next. =)]

About... probably 2 or 3 months ago now, I decided to finally play my copy of Omega Ruby before the online service was ended...

The first wild Pokémon I encountered;

Before you even get your first Poké Balls... XD; Egh. I closed the 3DS lid, intending to go back to it. Realised today that "oh, I never played Ruby", opened the lid to this girl staring at me still.

Painful XD Both the most and least lucky random encounter I've ever had in a Pokémon game. Time to kill it I guess because Poké Balls didn't spawn in that time the lid was closed, hahaha

Current progress of my latest fleece plush WIP. =) I've been slowly working on plush Pokémon trying to use up my old stock of fleece fabric. This one's for me!

Her cloak is a heavy WIP because I need to embroider around most of the seams by hand... that's a slow process for sure. I feel it will look better for it though!

I don't usually post about things, as you all know... But I just have to today.

Akira Toriyama was my hero. Without Toriyama, the art I draw today wouldn't exist. I learned to draw humans because I was inspired by his works and his style. It was Toriyama that made me branch out from drawing only animals at age 10 and who made me want to tell stories with my art.

I dearly love and deeply respect all his works, his art, his story telling and his brilliant humour. I hoped this day would never come, it feels way too soon.

Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama, you're my hero and I'm absolutely gutted I never got to meet you. I'll always miss you and you will never stop being my favourite.

[OK, so this poll isn't over just yet, but I don't think it will change much in 1 day, so enjoy the winner of the poll early! This time with more information since we know him a lot better by now.

The original ref sheet of Giacomo that I drew for this comic was done about a year and a month ago! It's been that long. You can see it here if you'd like to compare.]

[Okay, okay, so Giacomo wasn't ACTUALLY the winner of that poll. The winner was;

Giacomo. But topless.

I hope it's what you were all hoping for! Thanks for voting!]

People used to comment on web comics.

People used to comment on fanfiction.

People used to comment on fanart.

People used to comment on OCs.

I hate "content" culture.

I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.

People used to want to share that excitement with creators.

I hate this future.

Once someone tagged art that I made with "woah" and I think about it at least once a week. Someone else said "oh neat" once. Someone else WROTE A WHOLE DAMN POEM IN THE COMMENTS. Anyways even just one word can change how someone sees their art. You don't even have to think about it too hard. You could put a keyboard smash and I'd probably cry from joy.

I'm also trying hard to interact more, I understand that it's hard to break away from opening your phone and being in Content Consumption Mode.
