Today's comic update is simply a Halloween illustration. 🪄✨🌙
I wish I'd had time to render this fully in color but I think it turned out cute anyway. 💚

Halloween illustration. Jade and Ryatt, the wizard characters from my comic, are dressed in gay little outfits and wearing wide-brimmed "witch" hats. Ryatt is leaning on Jade's legs and holding a pyramid shaped lantern. He looks a little cuntier than I usually draw him lol. Jade is semi-reclined and holding a wand aloft in front of a large crescent moon. His titties are poppin'.

🎃 Happy Halloween 🎃

[ #ocart #art #souldeep]

Original character Karin in a black minidress and long sheer overdress with glitters at the sleeves and skirt. She had a big witch hat on with an orange bow as well as platform loafers with little bows. She is crouching one hand next to her cheek and the other held out holding a jack-o-lantern lollipop.
The is in front of a bunch of pumpkins with a foggy background where white little spirits are climbing the stems.

War is the absolute worst and fossil fuels both create the conditions for it and then directly profit from it

Greenpeace International 🌍 @greenpeace.org · 1d

Higher prices for food and fuel?

Oil and gas blocked in Hormuz have a lot to do with it.

Dependence on fossil fuels leaves us exposed. Switching to renewable energy can help protect the climate and keep people safer from rising living costs.

💔 Another day without a donation.

Nights are getting colder, and our tent can’t protect us from the cold or rain. 😭

My family needs food and warmth, but I can’t provide either.

Please don’t leave us to face winter alone. Even $5 helps. 🙏

I think I found the range of sketch styles I feel comfortable posting .3. thicker lines, less refined and some blockout colors/tones 😊
Anyway, please enjoy this while I have some work to do. God bless references for guitars.
