Cosmos Cadets

Adventures In: Stand-up

This is the beginning of a comic that I made the past three weeks from a summer intensive class. This is my favorite project I've made from school so far and made me really fall in love with my art again

#comics #oc #comedy #cats
Strip one of Cosmos Cadets "Adventures In: Stand-up." Cosmos the alien standing on a stage with a spotlight beaming on his. His hands are splayed out. "So, uh, I was in this tree, and I uh, I fell out of a tree, ya see, and I uh..." Cosmos rambles. He perks up a little as he continues. "I landed on my feet in front of this real nice dame, and I says to her--." He stops speaking suddenly and hunches over while slapping a paw to his head. "Wait, crap that's not how that joke goes."

Sometimes I worry about trying to make it as an artist, especially now. I feel like I don’t make enough polished art for the internet bc of how much effort it takes, and even then, I rarely think to post it. I want to make it a goal to put myself out there more

Uncolored drawing of richeh as a splatoon inkling. She is squatting holding a snipewriter and drawing little circles with it. Uncolored drawing of tetia as a splatoon inkling. She’s happily holding a bloblobber like she’s ready to lob some blobs Uncolored drawing of agott as a splatoon inkling. She’s facing away, floating with her feet together to complete the magic circle, and holding an octobrush Uncolored drawing of coco as a splatoon inkling. She’s holding a splat brella overhead like an umbrella

Rodolpho leans back, flashes a peace sign, and smirks with his tongue sticking out Amber leans on a table with one arm as she squints at a piece of amethyst held between the fingers of her free hand. A light dramatically shines down upon her.

I keep forgetting to post my #artfight stuff from this year. This year was pretty fun for me, I'm pretty proud of myself for being able to do 6 pieces this time!
Leina stands in front of a brick wall. She scowls at the camera Orion has his wings splayed out, but his overall demeanor still seems closed off. His arms are crossed over his chest and he looks down at the ground. Raven floats in an abstract void, one of her eyes glows red as her mouth is agape and her arms are raised at her sides Sparkle floats in the darkness, illuminated by a single ball of light that she caresses in her hands and gazes at with a warm smile

Cosmos Cadets
Adventures In: Flirting

A short one for today. Cosmos says the game never stops no matter what lol

#comics #ocsky #comicstrip #ocs
Cosmos looks offscreen with a flirty smile on his face. Cas watches on as Cosmos opens his mouth "Hahahaha, well it was nice seeing ya cutie," Cosmos says. "You know where to find me babe." Cas leans down towards Cosmos and scowls. "Can you please not flirt with the prison guards?" Cas hisses. Cosmos yells back, "STEP OFF MY GAME, INFANT!"

I found a big sign at the thrift shop with some live/laugh/love stuff on it, so I painted over that with my to-do list. Feel free to make it yours, too.
A painted pink, black and white sign that reads: To Do Build community Shop small and local Speak up and speak out Practice empathy Protect the vulnerable Give to good causes Care for the earth Be brave and loving Investigate Read and listen Abide no fascism

Thirty years ago today, Toy Story was released. One of the most important films released, this film launched Pixar as one of the biggest players in animation thanks to its heartwarming story, groundbreaking animation, and lovable characters that'll last for infinity and beyond.

UPDATE:

So with the help of an awesome friend, I was able to take care of the Toon Boom Subscriptions. I’m keeping the original goal to instead have it be for necessities before my next pay day. Thank you all for the support so far!
