~ A Damned Vampire ~

Margo Faust was once a regular decular secular office girl, now reborn into the night as a vampire, cursed to wallow away in the dark obscurity of anime convention artist alleys for her sins

any time ai/finance/tech "disruptors" talk about artists/writers "gatekeeping" the answer is not to point them to free resources because they genuinely don't care. the answer is to smile and say "yeah we are & nobody wants your 'solution'"

My comic is about the time I, a struggling artist alleyer, had a terrible roommate who didn't pay rent and found gainful unemployment as a result.

The thing about fascism is you can be a white man with a respectable job and do everything right, but it doesn't matter because the moment you step out of line you are the enemy. They cut and cut until more and more you edge towards the outside. B/C they will always need an inside and an outside.

Honestly, fuck social media and building, I'm brute forcing my OCs on every platform I have irl until people feel they're being gaslit that this is a real thing.

Writing another comic about living in Toronto with a new and worse roommate 😥

I think if you are anyone (except like Taylor Swift) doing any form of art in this period, what you are doing is inherently counter cultural. Not only are earnings meagre and work rare, but there's so many apparatuses between you and delivery to customer that to do anything you need to pay 2 tolls.

Hello #portfolioday! I'm available for freelance illustration for publishing, editorials, and merch. I wanna draw covers and band ts. I love creating mysterious narrative driven pieces that are worth a second and third glance. I also draw comics!

I don’t care if someone doing AA is a little…unrefined…at art but I see a lot of newbies these days throwing themselves at every terrible local con and random markets they see, saying they want ‘experience.’ What experience? The experience is at their drawing desk. Their motivations are misplaced.
I just feel like I see way too many inexperience and/or beginner artists in this scene, and I think they should be at home practicing their fundamentals and improving their art rather than trying to craft the perfect convention portfolio. That will come with time once you improve your art as a whole

I think it's really important to me to treat my art as a practice and not a small business. I mean it is both, but the point of it isn't that I want to make money, but I want to spend as much time as possible doing art, and to do that I happen to need money so it's a convenient cycle for me.

Anyone tabling at Anime North wanna do an independent OC or IP project stamp rally with me? We can only host free rallies at AN, so the requirement to get the stamp would be to hear our book/game/kickstarter/whatever pitch.

Because I guess it requires repeating - we kiss robots here, but that does NOT include genAI and LLMs.

They are not sentient, they are not real intelligence. They are built upon the stolen work of generations of passion and skill, and the exploitation of poor communities and the environment.

I think the best thing I've heard all 2025 is "stop measuring yourself as an artist by how well your skills can be exploited." It felt like the absolution for having failed to 'make it' in the system, and accept myself for what I am.

I'm very grateful to have been able to do what I have been able to do this year, and for everyone who supported me.

#knightxprincess but it’s a small remote mountain town sacrificing a maiden to the knight who came back from the crusades very wrong.
