You know I never considered a rock star whose drug of choice is Vicks cough drops, but that is a genuinely hilarious mental image that I am sticking with

Hope you're doing okay, brother 💛💛💛

My conspiracy theory is that he knows absolutely nothing about One Piece and is just using knowledge he absorbed from second-hand sources to prop up his dumbass agenda

At its very best this is using medical disinformation to distract from all the other shit going on right now.

At worst, this is an anti-semitic and islamophobic dogwhistle.

I assume it's because they trust general audiences so little to understand the story if it's not filtered through a generic real world framing device

They don't think people can suspend their disbelief at all, so now every fantasy world needs to be a parallel dimension accessed through a portal

Working on a bunch more production art for Quest Chefs. I want to really polish the art and present the project at the level of quality it deserves!

#QuestChefs
Crouton, a young curly-haired girl wearing a leather coif, jumps onto the shoulder of Rosbif, a large bearded chef wearing armored tassets and carrying a huge potato and carrot under his burly arms. As she laughs, he grimaces and strains under the sudden added weight.

This might actually be my favorite drawing I've made of these two

#QuestChefs
Rosbif, a large bearded chef wearing armored tassets and a bandolier of knives, carries Crouton, a young curly-haired girl wearing a leather coif, on his arm. Crouton has a crossbow slung across her shoulder and excitedly points at something in the distance, while Rosbif smiles at her with a laid-back expression.

I've been really busy writing, boarding, and preparing for a pitch session lately, but I took the time to update the art for my business cards!

Crouton, a young girl with a frying pan, and Rosbif, a burly old chef with a cleaver, fight off a horde of monstrous vegetables.

Yup, same here. It's why I bounced right off of it.

I can't tell what I need to focus on, who is who and wants what, why anyone does what they do, and what they're talking about at... most times.

Not for me, I guess. I'm glad some folks are enjoying it.

I think I went through enough stress and panic in the last two days to shave a few years off my lifespan, oh my god

I've pored over your work enough that when I watched the KoG pilot I was constantly pointing at my screen like "WAIT I RECOGNIZE THAT LINEWORK"

I'm not even halfway through Chapter 2 and it's so so so good already. Absolutely incredible achievement.

I adore Clancy Brown's work, both on and off-screen.
I love an actor who consciously trains their ability to project and pitch their voice on its own, and then uses that to widen their range across their entire acting portfolio.

Stephen Root, Robert Pattinson, and JK Simmons also come to mind.

"Bella Ciao" is an anti-fascist song, but it seems like this guy's politics aren't entirely coherent
