I bet they'd love to play softball. Referenced from an old photo

Some more magma doodles

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 28d

I gotta find a mirror to set mine next to now... haha!

In an alternate universe somewhere, art historians discuss "The Mona Lisa Squiggle"

It might be difficult to hang on to the two-sided version in some situations :P I'm glad to hear you still have yours!

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 28d

Oh my god... LOL

Back in 2nd grade we had a local sculptor come in to talk to us about art and creativity. I remember her explaining the concept of a "happy accident", but I don't think I fully appreciated the meaning until somebody asked if the backlighting "feature" was intentional 😂

Thank you! There's just something about l o n g canines that just hits different

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 28d

Oh that's awesome! I wish I could bring mine to the office, buuut.... It's the two-sided version :P

And on a personal note, it's kind of indescribable hear you say that. I remember the first time I ever saw your art I was blown away by your use of perspective and your ability to capture that authentic and unfiltered "Life, but how it actually looks" feeling.

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 28d

It's come full circle haha! You put a lot of hard work into your art, and it shows in the quality and complexity of your drawings. That's something I admire a lot, and I think it's something that inspires a lot of other artists.

It was a *very* limited run back in April of 2022. I think we announced it a week beforehand to let people know, then took orders for ~3 days. IIRC I posted about it twice on my twitter and once on Furaffinity because I didn't want to spam people's timelines LOL.

It's blank! My in-laws came across some new old stock and asked if we wanted them :P

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

It's possible if there was enough interest, and if my contact is still doing that kind of work.

My guess is there wouldn't be the same excitement for another standee though. I've spent the last 2 years trying to pull back from the art scene because it was eating up too much of my attention.

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

It is!

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

Eyyyyy LOL 👉👉

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

I can rest easy knowing yours will make it to the heat death of the universe 😂

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

I wish I did! Unfortunately I only asked for one to proof the colors.

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

She's even got prime real estate next to the photograph!

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · 29d

Just out of curiosity, how many of you still have your Mary standees?

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · Sep 8

Speaking human is easy! (When you have lips)

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · Sep 8

Every now and then I'll find sketches I never bothered to save, and every time I get annoyed for thinking it wasn't worth posting somewhere. I really gotta work on that.

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · Sep 8

I just wanted to say how inspiring your work is to me. The scenes you capture always feel so alive, and I often find myself spending a few minutes looking through the background to build a little story in my head.

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · Sep 7

Thanks! I was really happy with how Mary came out

Wetchop III @wetchop.bsky.social · Sep 7

With a healthy pulse of 60 BPM (Beats per month) 🤙
