Today is 34th anniversary of Metroid #Metroid34 #metroid

Thank you for everyone’s notes on the upcoming book, Inktober All Year Long. Our team is taking this matter very seriously and investigating the situation. We have held the release of this book while we look into this matter. We will share more when we can.

Inktober Chronicle Books

So apparently Jake Parker fucked up inktober for everyone 😑

PSA: Looks like the guy who started #Inktober plagiarized the books of black artist Alphonso Dunn. I suggest we use #drawtober instead, watch Dunn's video which teaches even as he lays out the evidence, and subscribe to Dunn's channel of GREAT art lessons. youtu.be/bG3ENcAdWBM

Dear clients: Here's a kind reminder that ghosting an illustrator YOU approached about a project, once more information/negotiation is requested, is rather rude. Especially when you email with a deadline of 2 days for sketches. Please don't do this. Signed, a tired illustrator.

Well with Boom doing a damn KICKSTARTER like theyre not a massive company with a huge preexisting following and NETFLIX DEALS, its a great time to remind everyone i was paid $20!!!!! Dollars US per inked page during my run on giant days!!! TWENTYYYYYY.

My previous studio, Big Fish Games just laid off 250 people. If your hiring in the Washington area, please let me know and I'll pass it onto my old co-workers. What a start to the week 😥

Jacob Blake's family hosting community gathering. Includes comm. clean-up, voter reg. booth as well as food, 🎶, free haircuts provided by local business. Celebration highlights contrast between Trump’s divisive & inflammatory statements & nonviolent demonstrations held by family

Anyway, if you have time and resources today (I know rent & bills are due), support a small indie creator’s Kickstarter or help a sex worker on OF or idk...buy someone a ko-fi because the greed we’re seeing from companies and celebs while everyone else is scraping by is wack.

CALL FOR ILLUSTRATORS: Background illustrators with examples of natural landscapes and storytelling with lighting, for a deadline in early October. Looking for about 6 artists for Play_Multiverse! Drop your email and portfolio in replies, no DMs or emails please.

Available for full time positions in after sept 11th!⭐️thank you

Remember instead of supporting Jake Parker, creator of Inktober, who has plargiarized this book, just support Alphonso Dunn (doesn't seem to have a handle on Twitter so Instagram's @/alphonsodunn instead) and other true masters of ink even outside of October.

Thrilled to discover from my agent Jodie Hodges that Grumpycorn has sold over 130,000 copies in the USA! (I still don't know if Unicorn ever managed to write his fabulous story, but he has finished off many cups of moonberry tea.)🦄🌈 @scholastic jabberworks.co.uk/grumpycorn
