My gf said this pumpkin was me…she’s not wrong

It’s really cool and validating to have your therapist tell you that you’ve gotten more assertive, and in a way that works well for you.

Many of his newer pieces look disjointed and appear to have different styles. Aka he’s likely using ai to some degree and then tracing/drawing characters on top.

For context: this man was at DragonCon and was suspected of using ai. He was not kicked out, but he began threatening some of the biggest artists who were talking about it with legal action. Since the show, several large creators have organized the evidence and made videos about him.

James C Mulligan is a joke passing himself off as a real artist.

The evidence is damning.

Copying Manchess is an insane choice

No ethical consumption under capitalism and all BUT I promise you'd be happier and make an actual material difference for someone if every time you wanted to buy another labubu/fast fashion item/pack of magic cards you just comm'd art from an small/indie/hobbyist artist.

Promise.

I had a Zabaz deck, but I recently turned that into a punchy Kilo, Apogee Mind deck. It’s a blast, but I would love a deck to put my Darksteel foil Suncrusher and Solarion into

Give me a 5 color modular/sunburst commander you cowards!

Hey Gmail,

You have no idea why I'm searching for something so you aren't helping by listing the results in "most relevant" order. Just keep it chronological and be quiet.

Disrespectfully,
Probably everyone

Show me how you draw armor! 🛡️

Way to go!!!

On my quest to make my studio a space I want to work in, I just cleaned my office chair. Did it two days ago and dried looking like I just moved the dirt around. Today, I spent about an hour outside with a carpet cleaner.

Let’s hope that got all the dirt out!

I recently saw some interview and they were talking about going through an artist’s entire library from start to finish. I thought that’d be fun!

So I’ll start with Linkin Park’s Hybrid Theory.

I bought most of LP’s albums on vinyl earlier this week. Only one I couldn’t find was “One More Light”

Just got the record player and speakers set up! Unfortunately I do not have any records to play yet. Those get here next week.

Oh, I haven’t done ANYTHING since MagicCon!!! 🤣

Jokes aside, I do also plan on starting to take trips just to visit friends.

I recently reorganized and cleaned up the studio and I couldn’t help but feel like I wanted to be in there again.

Because of that, I decided to buy a mount for my iPad so I can replace it with my cintiq, a record player, some new speakers, and most of Linkin Park’s albums on vinyl.

I used to work in my studio all the time. I did some of my most popular pieces in it.

However, since I switched to Procreate, I no longer work in there much, aside from admin work.

Because of that, I kinda hate working in there.

I was recently asked by a close friend, “What are you doing to celebrate yourself (after all the cool things you’ve achieved this year because you haven’t stopped all year)?”

So far, I’ve decided to remake my studio into a space I like to be in again.

Sergey (the artist of solar array) was my neighbor!

From left to right, top to bottom: foil “Ugin, eye of the storms”, foil “illustrious wanderglyph”, foil “mycosynth golem”, foil “betor, kin to all”, signed “Solar Array”, foil “Arcbound Ravager”, foil “Mirrorweave”, foil “Welding Jar”, and a foil “Sunforger”

DEEP SIGH

Our MagicCon booth all set up!

The crowd that came out for my drawing session on Friday at MagicCon. We drew spiderman with and without reference!

Me crouched next to a real life furby!

One of the silliest alters over ever done. Got the idea from someone at the DOO-DL event (they drew mtg characters from memory). Someone drew elspeth as a tombstone with her weapon sticking out of the ground.

Team Schmandrew has made it home!

Thank you all to everyone who came by and made this MagicCon so great!!

See y’all next year!

I’ve been sitting on this piece for SOO long. I CANNOT wait for y’all to see the finished piece.

I (unintentionally) cosplayed as my toothbrush at MagicCon this weekend
