Happy #portfolioday !!!! My name is Daryl and I am an artist looking for work in animation! I make videos on YouTube talking about art, games, and whatever else comes to mind! I also have a queer horror webcomic that updates weekly on inharmony.the-comic.org !

Art of a page of in Harmony. Dialogue will be after visual descriptions. Panel 1 shows Joel walking down a dirt road. Panel 2 shows Ingrid laying on her bed doing homework. Panel 3 shows another shot of Ingrid, closer to her face. In both panels she is talking excitedly to Joel on the phone. In the 4th panel we get a closer shot of Joels face as he happily responds back. Text reads as follows:
Ingrid: What’s this assignment for, again?
Joel: it’s for the semester long one I told you about. The professor wants us to take and collage photos we think represents ourselves.
Ingrid: Maybe you can find a fog monster and get a picture of that.
Joel: Ha ha, we haven’t managed to catch that one quite yet. My professor would be thrilled.
Ingrid: She actually might be! Who knows!
Joel: well, I’ll be trying to stay next to the pond the whole time, just in case. So long as I don’t get lost in all of this fog.

Art of Joel, scared, holding a camera. Mirrors and pictures are behind him, one showing a black figure, one shattered by revealing blue eyes, and a plaque with deer antlers above Joel’s head. Text above reads: In Harmony Chapter 4 Aperture.

Art of hawkfurze’s sona, a white person in a purple goat mask with a jacket that has a fluffy hood. Text on the side reads: Meet the Artist! Name: Daryl (They/Them) Gender: Agender Does: Art, Animations, Webcomics, Voice Acting, Gaming. Likes: Music, Art, Gaming, Reading, The Weird and Bizarre, Goats. Dislikes: Bigots, Shoes, Capitalism.

A lot of the characters in Ascendo are ones I rewrote from old stories, some from as far back as from when I was in high school, and I think it’d be really fun to break down the process of adapting them to a new thing.

hawkfurze @hawkfurze.bsky.social · 1d

I was thinking of how I talked about wanting to do a rambling about Ascendo characters video, but then I got a better idea for a series of videos, so now it’s gonna be a bunch of OC rambling videos for my sandbox but disguised as character development videos.

I know I KNOW that if I wait until I do the Season 2 future In Harmony video I wanna do I can yap more about Micah there because it’d make more sense in context and would be less art for me to draw for the December video. But I wanna talk about them 😭😭😭😭

My life has been a pendulum of swinging back and forth to everything being on fire and everything being on fire but I’m normal. The moment I get some fucking stability back in my life it’s gonna be all over for you guys.

I'm a fan of nuanced discussion but at this point I need to indulge in some black and white thinking and be clear that if you entertain AI generated art in any form I have no respect for you

Still stalled at $130/$400 and now smaller bills are pilling up. Only $270 needed to clear, something that definitely be met today with intentional care and funds.

P-pal @/shockofthequeen, pls send $ or share/boost if you cannot!
