So proud of our crew and the community that has gathered around our maiden voyage. From conception a big theme for our show was isolation. Not necessarily loneliness or longing, but of being far away, remote. Independent.

From the bottom of hearts, and the sea itself, thank you for tuning in. 🧭⚓

Thank you to EVERYONE who drew fan art for #Subtember, whether you did one day or the entire month!!

A series can't exist without an audience to watch it, and seeing everyone contribute to the fandom makes me think we have lightning in a bottle with Subparse!

Much love to you wonderful creatives 💙

I don't like the concept of #Uniforms at a workplace where nobody sees you anyway so LONG LIVE INDIVIDUALITY!!
I decided to keep it simple and have them make a group photo!
Nothing is off here ^-^
#subparse #Subtember #Sendusstuff #Uniform C-Team gathered together to take a picture of their beautiful individuality. CGAL is wearing Lornes clothes. Lorne wears Dunks clothes and has a Pan. Also his hair is on fire. Dunk is wearing Herbies clothes looking very sophisticated, very demure, very mindful. Gracefully holding a book upside down. With the power of Artists will and the magical void of wonder, I made sure Dunk got herbies stuff in his size. Big J wearing CGALs clothing. Look at his hair neatly combed back and held together by big bow. Since he isn't wearing his glasses, he looks confused towards Herbie. Herbie is wearing Big Js clothes. He feels disgusted. But he is also blushing. He is feeling both love and hate at the same time. I got really lightheaded when filling the image in with black permanent markers. Had to stop earlier. That was the last one I drew today.

It’s the [LAST_DAY] of #Subtember and the [FINAL_PROMPT] is: [REDACTED].

While this [SKETCH] is an [UNLIKELY] scenario, say [THANK_YOU] to every who [ENGAGED] with our [CHALLENGE] - from full [ILLUSTRATIONS] to a single [LIKE].

Your [SUPPORT] has been [APPRECIATED] <333
A pencil sketch by Big J on a piece of paper, its corner is weighed down by a mug of latte. The sketch depicts Big J's interpretation of someone from HQ giving thanks to Sub_scribers for their art submissions. He is shown to be an older man with thinning hair and glasses. His hands are clenched and raised in front of his face, partially obscuring it. He is wearing a uniform with a badge that holds the Subparse logo. He has two speech bubbles that say "Thank you. Your efforts have been noticed." and "Love that.'. "30. Redacted" is written on the top left of the paper and crossed out.

It's one of those "haven't been on socials for a bit" afternoons! Had to break the spell to come online and say that you folks have really made this month a treat.

Your works show us the other side of our imaginations. You just can't get that anywhere else. 💡⚓

The moon in the deep🌙 🌊

The C-team has a curious discovery...

For the Deep prompt for #subtember by @subparseshow.bsky.social , I got an idea for a surrealistic piece inspired by the amazing deep sea footages from Nautilus manned submersible ✨️

I'll be posting the delayed #prompts... even more delayed but they will all be up before #Redacted hits.

Anyway, your toxic yaoi #ship has infiltrated your timeline.

#subparse #art #othertagsinalt
#ship #subtember #sendusstuff #subparse Herbie and Big J as Harley Quinn and The Joker. Herbie Quinn is clinging onto Big Joker and (okay bare with me I dunno how to describe this I am out of english: ) pulls Big Jokers left side of his mouth with his (as in herbie) index finger to stretch out his (as in Big Joker) smile. Big Joker totally ignoring Herbie and looks maniacally at the viewer, stretching out his hand in pure menace and LAUGHING. One side of his glasses is shattered but he don't mind. To busy scheming his next date with batman. The background is filled with bloodlike splatter and hearts resembling a skull because that relationship is tooooxiiic. In this DC-Universe at least. There is a big heart-skull behind them. The left Eye has an "H" and the right has a "J" as pupils. Between them is the nose resembling and x. Look. I like the sketch so much better it made Herbie look more girlboss but he lost it all in the inking process ... I am so sorry ToT

me in an outfit i love wearing irl, and
doing a kickflip i can totally do irl too
cheap acrylic paints on wood block. a large, blue polar bear doing a kickflip. He's wearing camo shorts, a pink tee, purple shoes, and a backwards purple hat with tufts of hair peaking out. He's surround by blue sparkles. the skateboard is upside down mid-air to reveal the deck. It's Grrrl branded, a spoof on the Girl Skateboard brand where the woman symbol also has bear ears

been feeling a little sick today. i had to rush it (╥﹏╥) hopefully it looks nice nonetheless #subtember #subparse #sendusstuff
day three: data C_Gal kneeling down infront of a bunch of windows. looking at the failed data load with a concerned expression. through the screen-window thing , we see the front of the submarine. there are papers and sticky notes stuck on the screen. Lorne was supposed to help logging the data with her , but he forgot. so C_Gal had to do everything herself. #cancellorne

Something quick today for Subparse's #Subtember #Day04 prompt, #Lead! My brush pen was nearest me and I dunno how to properly do line weight with 'er. The goof still gaffin' tho 🤭
Ink on Index Card. Dunk, a portly polar bear, raises a glass of water up. His speech bubble reads, "Let me LEAD a toast! To me... for fixing the saltwater purifier!" BJ, the technician, is under the bear's outstretched arm holding a glass with both hands looking worried. His speech bubble reads, "I turned that off because the pipes were made of LEAD!"

It's [DAY_FOUR] of #Subtember and today's [PROMPT] is: [LEAD].

[FUN_FACT]: You can [LEAD] an unsuspecting [ENEMY] into a [ROOM] and [TRAP] them under [LEAD]!
A pencil sketch by Big J on a piece of paper, its corner is weighed down by a mug of latte. The sketch depicts Herbie being crushed under two gigantic 3D block letters "Pb", the symbol for the element lead. "4. Lead" is written on the bottom of the paper.

Just in time for #Day04 of #Subtember!
I don't know how to form a proper sentence with the word #Lead soo... I was thinking of "Lead and follow" - dances.
and it is definitely not an excuse for me to draw Lunk ship art.
#Lead #Subtember #Sendusstuff #Subparse Lorne and Dunk with a music note shirt dancing. Lorne tiptoes to try and twirl the crouching dunk around. He is a little bit worried about what will happen next. above them is a twirling arrow. In the middle is the main focus of the illustration. Dunk dropping back while Lorne tries his best to keep a balance and to not let go of Dunk. on the right, there is the aftermath showing Lorne loosing control and toppling over dunk, landing gracefully on his face. Dunk flipped to his side and looks a little dazed. The background there are 3 white triangles and they inverse when they cross. around them is a lot of "glitter" elevating the gracefulness of this dance... yeeeah... maybe dunk should lead the dance next time

i figured people would draw Bobby and wanted to do something a little different ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)٩

i like to think Captain is the type of person to bring bizarre things and show it to people. like "check this shit out" and its a whole ass tank type of thing. #subtember #sendusstuff
a messy , simple shaded comic of young Lorne and Robert together. like , mid 20s type of young. mid 70s or something idk LORNE IS SO OLD. also ignore how TERRIBLE my writing skills are. my brain is completely fried. first panel: Lorne is sitting on a chair , infront of the desk presumably studying something but hes most likely staring out the window. the room is dim , with just a little lamp on. second panel: we see Lorne's face this time. there are absolutely NO thoughts behind those eyes. second.5 panel: Lorne looking to his back to the door as it creaks open. third panel: the person that entered the room turns on the lights. Lorne isnt used to that probably so he has his eyes shut closed. he is still looking at his back , an arm draped over the chair. he has a pleasant smile on his face. what is hro so happy about. third.5 panel: a chibi Lorne looking confused. L: "hey , welcome... back..?" last panel: the person is revealed to be Robert (no shit sherlock) , standing infront of the open door. i gave him a small ponytail. idk. it fit him well. he has a pleasant expression and a small smile on his face. he is holding a fat little ducky in his hands. but its super adorable. you cant be mad at him for that. right??? the little chibi Lorne doesnt seem to think so. he isnt "mad" he is just shocked at Robert nonchalantly just bringing home a duck. L: "!?!?!!?!!!!" (absolutely speechless) R: "hey Lorn–" L: "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FROM!?" Duck: "... quack." (the duck is just as nonchalant as Captain.

it's day 1 of #subtember.
Obviously, the first thought on #Duck is Robert!
I think it's the perfect day to let out the lil guy from the container.
... And with that, the captain hat returned to their rightful owner. right?
#Day01 #Duck #Subtember #sendusstuff #subparse Monochrome illustration of a water blob wearing the captain's hat and having a DUCK in the middle. There are 3 stripes going through the blob and getting distorted by the water.

the queens are back for #HappyBirthJay !!

this was originally supposed to be rendered , but i couldnt find the energy to do so because of my poor mental state ( ;´ - `;) atleast drawing them made me feel so much better! i love them so much #subparse
the genderbent C_Team all gathered around the table having some fun. the perspective and anatomies might be a little funky. i drew this without any guidelines whatsoever. bad idea. Lorna has her back turned to us , shoulders a little tense. trust me she's trying her best to fit in. BIOS is offline. but atleast he has a nice party hat! Jay has a big smile on her face , turning back to smile at the imaginary camera over her shoulder. eating her cake. she's super happy not just because this reminds her of her times in B_Team but also because her team is so nice. trust. at the other end of the table , there's Hertha. she has her legs crossed on the table like the QUEEN she is , side eyeing Jay. but she's blushing hard. right beside her is Diana , with a chef hat indicating she made the cake herself. she is holding a bottle of wine , wrapped with a nice bow. the sticker on it says "love , B_Team". if you look closely theres also bobby. she's just chilling on the table. the banner hung up in the background says "HAPPY BDAY JAY!!" with runes under the scribble. i hope it looks nice. i tried my best to push through but all i could do is simple shading. im sorry.

Have this very normal birthday present!
#Subparse #Illustration
Big Jay holding a bursting present filled with an endless amount of yellow rubber ducks. Big jay is concerned but mostly confused on how this is even happening. He himself is starting to glitch. behind him is overly hardmixed background with the "J" rune stariing at him with red filled... eyes? There is one green duck in the present. Possibly the exact same one Lorne talks to... either way: HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAY! #happybirthjay #Subparse

Awwh, Dunk made Cubcakes for #HappyBirthJay!
Ink drawing of characters from Subparse. The technician, Big J, is in the middle holding a cupcake with a single lit candle. The polar bear chef, Dunk, holds Big J tightly from behind brandishing his sharp bear claws and Dunk's chin rests on top of Big J's head. Dunk's expression is overly happy, almost maniacal, showing off two fanged teeth, and Big J looks concerned. On the left of the image is Herb, looking slightly disdainful and jealous at the attention Big J is receiving. On the right of the image is Lorne, who is side-eyeing the queasy "birth" day boy.
