#Indietober Day 8- Indie Style Swap Since it’s October, I thought it’d be fitting to try drawing Buddy in Spooky Month’s style. #DimBulbs #SpookyMonth #OC #indietober2026

A late video for #Indietober Day 4- Stepping on Legos (original prompt by @thematiawards.bsky.social & Drawn Alive) I wanted to show a typical repair job for Buddy & Rita, so I made a short animatic based around the prompt #DimBulbs #OCsky #indieanimation #indietober26 youtube.com/shorts/EPMoZ...

Today's the big day! I'll be at the #clevelandanimefest artist alley today. If anyone's attending feel free to stop by at table 6! I'll be featuring all of the new pieces I've been posting & this will be the last time I'll be selling my older stuff at cons. Hope to see you there! #artistalley

Wow. LOISH got accused of using Ai to make her art. I started following her on early deviantart. I remember first seeing her paintings in college. This is ridiculous, no one is safe. Artists Ive followed for actual decades are getting harassed because their work has been stolen and regurgitated.

I won’t be able to do every prompt & they’ll most likely range from sketches to full illustrations, but I thought this would be a fun way to force myself to make more Dim Bulbs stuff and introduce newcomers to Buddy & the other characters.

I also had to delete & repost this because I completely forgot about Zombie Land Saga! I may have to an honorable mention list or something since I was torn between so many options 😖😓

This was honestly harder to pick than I initially thought. I was torn between Katanagatari & Zatsu Tabi for the 9th slot, but I went with Katanagatari since I wanted to watch it for the longest time and made it a year long experience when I finally saw it in 2025. #9anime #my9anime

Cowards, those AGs. I'm hoping for one of two things: - The merger will be split once the tide changes in the midterms - The WB debt (and poison) becomes so damaging it'll ultimately destroy Paramount

Yo who wants to buy some of my new sticker that I made for the gaming group I run in Seattle, Wa? Made with zero AI because Fuck AI, That's Why.

6 circular stickers laid out across each other that says "Girly Pop Gaming" in a stylized, hand drawn font. AI was not used to make these stickers because I fucking hate AI.

What an honor it was to paint backgrounds for Aika’s transformation sequence and for Zira. Seeing it fully composited and in motion was so cool! A huge thank you to @kianamai.bsky.social for bringing me on for this project. It was so much fun. Go watch the pilot on YouTube now!

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

I’ve said this before on here I believe, but animation fans need to start having some uncomfortable conversations about subconscious homophobia and racism that exists and stop being super weenie hut jr losers who dick ride for basically the same 5 projects and do this middle school bullying shit.
