Today’s drawing is technically a test I made for my comic, but I really love how the depth of this one came out! Even more than the original 🥰🥰🥰

October begins 🧍‍♂️You might recognize this page! I started a comic at the end of last year, and never followed up. Well, I’ve completely reformatted, relined, and rerendered EVERYTHING. I’m hoping to put all these pages on my website at the end of the month. Thus begins the daily October drawing!!

The first of two final attacks I made for AF user K-otick I loved getting to draw my character Theo with Eo, because oh woooow would Theo absolutely adore him and become the most annoying person ever about it 🥰

Gonna be a multiple post day, but first, here’s the last two sketches I did during art fight for @cerealmonster.bsky.social I am legally required to draw Yale and Orion, but Skali had to be Cereal’s most drawn character this year, so naturally I had to balance out my own attack. ✌️

Break time!… During Art Fight @edudemakescomic.bsky.social drew TWO of my super hero characters together, (both who I’ve had, but just added to AF) and I was so happy, of course I had to return the favor! 🥰 #artfight #artfight2026

I NEED to get all these attacks posted before October! 😂 This one is for AF user sugar2be who has such cute character designs 🥰 #artfight #artfight2026

✨ Pretty pretty sparkly attack for @starsylveon11.bsky.social I’ve had my eye on this character the last two years, so I was very happy to get a chance to draw her this time 🥰

Attack for @crocronut.bsky.social ! Really had to go all out for Callum here. And I wanted to do something regarding his time leaving the cult because it’s a fascinating and pivotal part of his story. 💛💛

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Hey so I’m still not done uploading art fight 🧍‍♂️ this was an attack for user Foxy_Lovey and you might be able to tel but I really couldn’t decide which of their characters to attack, so I just did a bunch of them 🥰

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

This might be one of try favorite attacks that I made this year! For AF user the_corpse I got very experimental with it and had a BLAST. 🥰 figuring out how all of these colors would work together was a neat challenge. [ #artfight #artfight2026 #originalcharacter ]

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Attack for mnyehlike on Art Fight! I’m officially halfway through posting all of my attacks from this year! So proud of how much I did this year. [ #artfight #artfight2026 ]

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Okieeee took a bit of a posting break, but I’ve still got more art fight to post! This is for k-otick (on AF) of their character Eo, who I might becoming obsessed with. They’re cool, okay! [ #artfight #artfight2026 ]

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

I think it’s real funny how competent the process video makes me look when it comes to choosing the lighting. As if I didn’t spend two hours changing colors & repainting shadows 10 million different ways 😂 I like how it came out though! Both these characters belong to @donutdespair.bsky.social

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

I’m soooooo normal 🌟✨🌟 I did an animation for cerealmonster again this year. You may think that this is Orion again BUT ☝️ this is his brother Skali. Also! I was being veeeery reasonable because I only did 13 frames instead of last year’s thirty nine 🤓

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

If you just saw me unsuccessfully make that post 3 times before I got it right… no you didn’t.

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

More Art Fight!! This one is for user @punkedfox.bsky.social who was one of my last minute victims last year. They were kind enough to attack me early on this event, though I still got revenge 😈 Kota has such a good design. I hope I draw them again.💛 [ #artfight #artfight2026 ]

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

An AF revenge against @notacatart.bsky.social They made me one of the most unique attacks I’ve ever seen, so I wanted to make something extra cute and polished for them! #artfight

an #artfight attack for @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social! get tripled baka'ed DUMMY!!!!!!!!

In the poses of the 'triple baka' opening, three characters. Vlad, a Black vampire with red circular glasses looks at his phone with an annoyed expression. Rowland, a werewolf in a puffy green jacket, grins and pumps his fist in the air. V, a vampire with purple hair in twin buns smiles with her eyes closed.

I have GOT to remember to post my art fight pieces. This one is for K-otick on AF and I thought their character would suit a cutesy, anime art style. So I had to take a stab at it! Why did the lighting go all spooky at the end? Vibes. 🤷‍♂️

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

My very first Art Fight attack this year! The character belongs to mad-flannel on AF and Tumblr.

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

I forgor to upload all of these here 🧍‍♂️ my beautiful, beloved Vlad.

I’ve been working on animated icons of my characters for art fight! I’m starting with my monster trio world which, uh, has way more than three characters now. BUT! ☝️I eventually want to get to… every character of mine with an actual story. Which is maybe a lot. 👉👈 but it’s a noble cause.

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 15/03/2026

Hello! Sorry I disappeared off of social media for a while. I’ve actually been having a lot of fun with two bigger project lately. Hopefully I can share them soon, but in the meantime here’s some art I did for an RvB secret Santa event. ❤️💙 #rvb #tuckington

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 31/10/2025

The final monthly drawing! It’s the first page of a comic I’ve had in mind for a while. I really want to explore my monster trio through comic and storyboards, starting with a VERY short three page comic of Rowland meeting Vlad. The next two pages should be done soon.

Heeyyyyy it’s that Team 8 sticker I said I’d do forever ago! It’s done! Two more teams left. #naruto

Gumi and VY2 Yuuma! An odd combo maybe, but they’re me and my sibling’s favorite vocaloids so I’ve wanted to draw them together for a while. With Gumi’s boots/colors and VY2’s silly pants they really lend themselves to a 70s lava lamp sorta vibe. 💚🧡🩷

I’ve finally drawn my whole Neopets family together!! It makes me happy seeing them all together like this. 🥺

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 25/10/2025

Another one! One more and I’ve drawn my entire neopets family 🥰 it’s been fun getting to work on them bit by bit.

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 24/10/2025

Okay today I have a handful of hololive doodles to offer. I have… so many more of these hanging around that I should post in a dump together later. 🩵

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 22/10/2025

I missed yesterday, so I’ll draw something to make up for it. Life is just too much right now. So in the meantime here’s Rowland’s ex who I drew just before art fight and never posted.

More neopets!!! My punk skunk, who I drew earlier this month. And my newest baby, who’s based on a plushie I loved as a kid. 🥰 only two more neopets to go.

This was going to be yesterday’s inktober, but I wasn’t able to finish it in time, so here it is!!! I have to draw my monster boys being fruity at least once a year or I will combust. So here you go. 🤲

Jaden Mangrum @jaden-mangrum.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

Was anyone aware that this moving is hard? Woof… I’m tired but I started painting my sketches from the other day. I hope to get to the full lineup soon. 💛
