Tulen myymään sarjakuvaani "Luuseri kuopassa!" Zine festeillä sunnuntaina 20.9. Sarjakuva on A5-kokoinen, 146-sivuinen satiirinen dystopia Suomen työttömyyskriisistä. (Voi myös tilata!)

Lisäksi tulen myymään tapahtumassa zinejä, tarroja, kortteja ja printtejä!

Miun sarjiksen "Luuseri kuopassa!" 2. painos on virheetön! Kun saan kuntoon 1. painoksen korjauspaketit, mainostan enemmän, mutta nyt jo tiedoksi:

- 1. (virheellinen) painos + korjauspaketti = 14 e
- 2. (virheetön) = 20 e

- Mie tuun myymään tätä Zinefesteillä su 20.9.

Practising anatomy, especially hands. So far I've been too lazy to properly focus on anatomy, but now I'm in a (hobby type) course so I will hopefully manage to learn something more. :'^)

Another #ceramic clay thingy from last spring (inspired by my fantasy comic I still haven't gotten the funding for).

Got to try black clay, which was interesting. Making round shapes proved to be surprisingly difficult.

Some of the ceramics works I did last spring when I got to try working with clay again. It had been such a long time since I worked with clay previously. I think the last time (before spring) was when I was a teenager? But I didn’t care if I was rusty, it was very fun!

If you see this, please tell me the worst / most baffling bit of creative feedback you've ever received.

Mostly people ask why I draw such depressing stuff. I got it better when I was a teenager, but it gets frustrating when I'm 33, trying to make a statement about society. Also vent art is valid.
If you see this, please tell me the worst/most baffling bit of creative feedback you've ever received.

I don't get much creative feedback, but I will forever remember my mom genuinely asking me if I'd be interested in making "how to draw manga" guidebooks and selling them to fix my unemployment 😂
If you see this, please tell me the worst/most baffling bit of creative feedback you've ever received.

This isn't really creative feedback but I'm still pissed... I was told that I should take my fic down from bsky bc some fuckers I hate think it's sad I'm not doing any "real writing" anymore. 😐

I've been working on a new Finnish comic project for a while, and am hoping to get it done in time to sell it at Ropecon. If not, I will promote it here.

The comic is a 100+ page, partly very spontanious, symbolistic, (hopefully a tad funny), semi-satirical dystopia about unemloyment.

I'm gonna be at both Ropecon and Zinefest (more about those later).

If someone happened to get a Sunday spot for half a table at Zinefest as well, would you wanna be table buddies?

The Forest of the Lovers

(Inspired by the fact that apart from one person, everyone I hang around the most, be it family or friends, is either married or engaged, and it gets to me when I'm feeling down.)
