My friend Sam Neukirch is launching a risograph printing business for creators on Long Island ! It's called Riso Roost, and you can check a look below, and at risoroost.net. Their Kickstarter campaign launches on 6 October, and I'd love for y'all to consider supporting them !! #artiechirps

A highlight of the past Art Fight season for me was meeting the wonderful Time_Lime (@time-lime.bsky.social), and seeing their awesome take on Nova's fashion. They've recently landed on both Bsky and Vgen, and I'd love for y'all to consider following and/or commissioning them !! #starshipnova

It would be much perferred if they went out of business after Amphibia: Strange Voyage completes its run, and not before or during. One delay was enough for my frog show-starved heart !!

Well hey, four is better than zero !! And it's more than the measly three I managed in my absolute crashout year in the previous edition of Art Fight, haha.

Under Beck Schott's (@frogletcomics.bsky.social) brush, Nova is as gorgeous and captivating as the nebulous space beyond the glass !! I'm deeply thankful to Beck for the ebullient joy this portrait brings me. Go read their webcomic—'Beneath the Grove' !! #starshipnova

A muscular, ebony woman leaning against the window of a spaceship, with a nebula visible behind her. A staff with the symbol of the constellation Taurus as its head leans against the opposite side of the window. // Une femme noire athlétique appuyée contre le hublot d'une station spatiale, avec une nébuleuse visible en arrière-plan. Un bâton en forme du symbole du Taureau est appuyé contre le côté opposé du hublot.

I'm honoured to have been even a small part of this—I drew Bowser Jr. !! Hillel is an awesome dude, and his ability to gather such talented artists with ease perhaps speaks volumes of how much he's loved by this community. תודה לך הלל, can't wait for the next collab !! #artiechirps

Perhaps darker, more dramatic shadows may have helped viewers better distinguish the body parts, but otherwise your anatomy work is perfectly fine !! I think people just aren't used to seeing a body twist like Adri's does here.

En tant qu'artiste numérique, j'ai une admiration sans bornes pour l'Entremonde. Tu es un véritable maître dans ton art, et j'espère un jour posséder ne serait-ce qu'un quart de ton talent avec un vrai pinceau.

I hope the fact that they AI-generated their own render of Civic Park gets talked about more, in particular. It's easily the single most ridiculous thing about this whole situation.

Hal, I'm so used to the halftones and watercolour-esque textures that your art is so often beautifully furnished with, that seeing a clean gradient like this has me wondering if I've accidentally slipped into an alternate timeline, haha.

This is the first time I used one of my postage stamps on a published artwork. I'm still figuring out where to best place them, and how to better contrast them with the art. I'm getting fairly comfortable with them as part of my branding and identity though, and that makes me happy. #artiechirps

Among the many things I adore about Feral Mills is the rich variety of "Lester is losing his marbles" faces you draw. I'm 100% invested in this absolutely mental rabbit.

With that said, I hope you don't mind me indulging you with a rare public act of flattery, haha! I've always admired the cleanliness of your character portraits. It directly inspired me to tame my hesitance in using solid colours and cleaner line art in my own character portraits. 💛

I deeply relate – I’ve authored plenty of fanmail, and anxiety still plagues that process to this day. Few feelings in life compare to those elicited by informing a fellow artist that their work is loved and appreciated, so overcoming the anxiety to do so has always been absolutely worth it.

Which software will you be dating now? Excuse my attempt at continuing the metaphor, haha.
