HUMAN artists, use only one #art piece to convince people to follow you

I'm still pretty proud of my Dark Knight Returns/Kamen Rider One homage piece

In Transformers Beast Wars, Rattrap calls Arcee his great aunt. So I drew Arcee as a mouse. I think mouse mode is cute!

Was there ever an official Rattrap repainted as Arcee, like a BotCon thing or something?

A white mouse with pink nose, feet and tail. She turns into a robot. Her tail becomes a long rifle.

I took a notion to draw a wee comic last night, based on my real-life experience where I felt bad for some sticks.

Comic page. 2 Panels.

Panel 1: Me walking my dog in the woods.

Caption: Not to brag - but I walk my dog, okay/

Caption: We often find ourselves in the local woods.

Panel 2: Me looking at a big stretch of boggy muck.

Caption: There's this one big stretch of boggy muck on the pack we take.

Caption: You're probably thinking that we just shouldn't go this way. Hey you might be right. First time for everything, as they say.

Comic page. 1 Panel

Panel 1: Me and the dog walking over the boggy muck, elevated on sticks laid into the dirt.

Caption: Every few weeks, though - someone lays down a very useful series of branches so we can cross with ease.

Caption: That's nice isn't it? Someone taking the time and expending the effort to build a little bridge.

Caption: I often wonder who it is. Perhaps it's more than just one person. That's a comforting thought.

Panel 2: Me looking at a big stretch of boggy muck.

Caption: There's this one big stretch of boggy muck on the pack we take.

Caption: You're probably thinking that we just shouldn't go this way. Hey you might be right. First time for everything, as they say.

Comic Page - 1 Panel. Me crossing the sticks, we see all the previous sticks crushed down deep into the dark mud.

Caption: It's funny how guilty I feel when a branch breaks - like I've undone their good work, y'know?

Caption: But within a weeo or two, there's a new set of branches ready to be trodden into the mud.

Caption: It's hard not to think about all those other branches, crushed down deper in the dark with every new layer.

Comic Page 2 panels.

Panel 1: Me standing in the woods looking down at the path.

Caption: maybe it's my turn to lay down some branches for the next folk who come this way.

Caption: God knows it wouldn't take long - and I definitely have the time.

Panel 2: Shot of my hands holding the sticks I'd need.

Caption: Nah

Stupid KitaGoro idea that came to me, and I just had to put it out there

4 panel comic strip featuring Kitaoka and Goro from Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Panel 1: They are both handcuffed together, Kitaoka says "Oh no, I accidentally handcuffed us together, whatever shall we do?"

Panel 2: Close up on their faces. Kitaoka: "Guess we have no choice but to…" Goro: "Sensei." Kitaoka: "Yeah?"

Panel 3: Close up on the handcuffs showing Goro unlocking them with a pick, while saying "I got them off."

Panel 4: The two of them stand there, Kitaoka speechless and disappointed while Goro asks "Sensei?"

Primus Losing at Mahjong

Primus from Transformers, in the form of a golden Rodimus Prime, stressed and agonizing over his shitty performance is a game of mahjong. his tiles are visible in front of him.

The Coca-Cola Freestyle machine is an echo chamber. Good luck finding nuanced debates about hot button issues on that touch screen. It’s just soda names and flavored syrups
