COMIC REVEAL! 🐺💙

BLUE EYES, WHITE WOLVES, my new one-shot about transpinoy angst and american masculinity, is joining the anthology TRUE TRANS SOUL REBEL: A MIXTAPE ZINE edited by @/ltsbwrms and @/yan.pyre!

all profits go to supporting @/transmascph after they were cut off from USAID funding.

Black and white comics illustration for the zine "True Trans Soul Rebel" titled "BLUE EYES WHITE WOLVES." The main character Luke, a Filipino trans teen, looks over his shoulder with a row of older smug white guys below him. Behind them are various fragmented busts of wolves and dogs against a full moon in the background. Caption reads, "Luke thinks a runaway car with some beer and testosterone will fix all his problems. But in this side of the woods, every wild animal was once an angry lost boy... #TRANSRAGE #WerewolfMetaphorGoApeshit. Warnings for violence and gore, strong language, and alcohol (DUI). All profits go to Transmasc PH."

Cropped comics page of a grisly werewolf transformation.

Cropped comics page of Luke cursing as he drives past a bilingual coyote warning sign. Caption reads," TRUE TRANS SOUL REBEL. A five-story comic anthology. All profits for @transmascph."

I open to queries on the 1st of every month and I close when I get to 100 unread queries in my inbox (or on the 7th of the month, whichever comes first)

You can see my full MSWL on my or the Azantian website but right now?

I desperately need a friendship or sibling story that makes me cry.

BDS victory! The Scottish Parliament becomes the first in the world to endorse BDS against genocidal Israel.

BDS calls for escalated civil society pressure on all states to impose legal and targeted sanctions against apartheid Israel similar to those that helped abolish apartheid in South Africa.

It's my birthday!
I only wish to get more eyes on my medieval art 🪶📜

A large tiefling or firbolg man stands looking right, legs straight, his left hand outstretched to hold a greataxe doubling as a shovel, and right hand in a fist at his hip. He is covered in heavy orange cloths and extremely intricate, burnished gold and brass armor. Even his toes are armored, with large pieces of candelabras, lanterns, clocks, and chandeliers making up his armor. His face is covered with a three-part theatrical mask, obscuring his own expressions; instead, a frown and a grin can be seen. His large pontifical headpiece and pauldron are covered in melted wax and burning candles.

A depiction of Jesus Christ facing the camera, though his eyes are obscures by a bronze frame with Greek on it going around the illustration. The picture depicts the side wound of Christ, with holy light emitting from it, and the doubting Thomas putting his fingers inside of it. On the right stands Peter, observing this. Jesus wears a red robe to indicate his blood and sacrifice.

On the top of the picture is scripture, reading: "Reach hither thy hand and thrust it into my side;" and it continues at the bottom of the picture, reading: "and be not faithless — but believing. John XX.XXVII."

Illustration of a six-handed orange eld with seven golden eyes on the face and two eyes on open palms facing the viewer. One pair of hands tilts their face, the two other pairs framing them. They're donning dark red clothes with gold ornaments, wearing abundant gold jewelry. Dark flames shine behind them.

A medieval-style illustration of Lancelot on the left pointing a lance towards sir Turquine on the right. They are framed by an illuminated frame of bronze and green. Both are on horseback: Lancelot on a grey horse, and Turquine on a black-orange one made out of starlight and shadow. Above them is Lancelot's coat-of-arms, and below them in Latin: "Lancelot bellat Turquine".

uhh playing with an old 2024 sketch

colored sketch of my OC, Lance, standing menacingly with black angel wings and a black habit draped over one shoulder. He holds a strapped guitar behind his back.

Old version of the same Lance sketch without colors yet.

Rough sketch of Lance's mecha in mid-air

(1)🚨ALL EYES ON INDONESIA🚨
It's 0.41. A.M. Local time. First they cut off the power in Kwitang & Senen. Then the snipers came. And now they're using live bullets.
Just 3 days ago the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission silenced the journalists to not broadcast the protests.
