Fellow BCS speakers...are you familiar with the work papundak/papundek? My dad used it as an endearment that he said meant "little child" but the only ref I can find online is a TV character played by a Croatian actor??

Watched Nova seed on prime the other day and loved it, always cool to be reminded that things don't have to be super polished or use the most cutting edge tech to tell an engaging story. Also loved that all the sound effects were just like...someone vocalising. Lol
Brightly coloured poster for animated film nova seed. A slim green figure floats inside a tank covered in pipes and tubes, masked figures bearing weapons climb the tank towards a lion like character who stands at the top. Looming overhead is a large sinister figure with a skull head, his hands clawed above the smaller figures.

Meant to do this before Xmas but here's a little thread of where you can buy my work or support causes I'm involved in!
Starting with this kids jumper I designed for Sea Watch, who provide civil sea rescue for refugees and migrants:

Y'know what's hard to draw? Clothing! Some of the best lessons in drawing drapery ever published were in the Famous Artists School's Cartooning course. Out of print for 60 years! But there are scans & a pdf on a defunct blog archived at the wayback machine. #comics

Lots of different projects going on in 2023! From my first graphic novel being published to illustrating the hostile environment to making a big return to live illustration after the pandemic! You can see more work on my insta @adajusic . Looking forward to showing you 2024...

Kinda fell out of the habit of posting on here and then my dad passed away suddenly. I do still plan to post artwork here but it'll probably take me a little while to get round to it

So the best way to reduce our carbon footprint appears to be getting rid of the 1%

This whole deal where we have ordinary people desperately calculating their carbon footprint before considering the most trivial action while the wealthy do nothing at all is the most monumental scam and con job. Absolutely intolerable.

About to do an hour and a half of brand training for a client, which I'm pretty sure could just be a document instead

Two weeks ago, Jewish Currents interviewed three doctors in Gaza to show the world the direness of their situation. The story was just updated to reflect one of the doctors was killed by an airstrike in his own home, making this quote even more gutting. jewishcurrents.org/we-have-lost...
I hope to raise my kids to be ambitious—not to think about war, missiles, rockets. Every day, I see a fear in their eyes that I can’t do much about. It’s very painful. If you have kids, you know how horrible it is not to be able to comfort them, to ensure they are alright, to make them hope for anything beyond living one more day. We want to live freely like other people—to grow scientifically and economically, to walk in the street without fearing bombardments, to make plans. We want to be able to learn, think, grow, travel, dream—to feel like we are really human. Not to think only about meeting our basic needs. This is what life has always been about for us, and now—I want the world to know—we are being eradicated en masse. This is not what life should look like.

Took the day off to have a nice relaxing spa day with a friend after a bit of a stressful weekend, only to hit a monster pothole on the way home that took out two tires 🫠
