June Diary 2024
Not a lot of text in this one, just funny thing I thought about as I've been having nice cups of coffee in outdoor cafes.

2024-06-30 09:17:09 +0000 UTC View PostSorry I'm a bit late. After Twitter disabled likes, finding trends has been a bit more difficult to the point that I might have to alternates from this point on, or just asking from people.
But please vote which sounds the best, and I'll draw it in my twisted way. The drawing itself might come later in July, thanks.
Full resolution version of the Midsummer illustration (it's big!!)
Alternate version of Tyyne & Taimi in the second one (not as big.)
And the sketch (quite small.)
Sorry this month has been slower on the updates, but I've been preparing stuff for you, so they'll come in a one big swoop once they're done, thanks.
The FOTM-poll is also coming a bit later.
This time there weren't any alternate ideas for the cover art, but here's a full resolution version of it without the title, sketches and the .psd file where you can see my insane color adjustments I did afterwards.

A smaller batch again. Patreon changed something in their DM system, so if I missed anyone's request, please let me know and I'll get them done by next month.
Like last month, there was duplicate request of a lotta (Lahja this time around), so the other request is dawn on sketchbook instead on cardboard. A special case.
Thanks again! I'll stay in touch with the Gold-tier members about the characters for next month. Keep an eye out for the inbox, but in the meantime think up of the...

What's this? The first diary illustration that's SIDEWAYS? These truly are the end times.
But yeah, end of the winter and beginning of summer are both the most difficult seasons for drawing. Despite that I've been having a somewhat good drive, and it's only improving.
Instead of drawing a character just crunching their face I drew a comic page of the popular meme. Lemons weren't common in Finland until the 1960's, so it's very likely that someone like Taimi hadn't tasted lemon before.
I thought to reference this video to some degree, but didn't have any ideas.
In any case, the first taste of lemon and people's reaction to it is funnily universal, somethin...

Stylished background practice and a jamming fox. Will there be a correlation between the two once they are polished? Time will tell.
2024-05-21 16:12:10 +0000 UTC View PostI've once again gathered four memes and trends from the past month. Some more short-lived than the others. Winner gets drawn with my usual twist.
Last time I realized that it's possible to switch your vote at any time. Try to commit to your vote and not change it after the initial decision.
I've also thought to add picture to visualize each trend, but it's funnier if people might not know what they actually are, and vote solely based on the funniest sounding title.

The fourth and last The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom-comic for the 1 year anniversary of the game. Surprisingly they all included Rauru & Sonia and are set in the flashback sequences.
I had some ideas for the "modern" timeline, but those will have to wait.
I also updated the comics in this and 2024-05-05 07:17:54 +0000 UTC

Here's the pizza box with some room to spare as I drew the characters a tiny bit smaller than usual.
There were TWO requests to draw Helle, so the other one is drawn on a sketchbook as bonus instead of on the cardboard. Always surprises me that people want to see my OWN characters, but that's what some of you are here for, huh. Big thanks again and see you next time.
"Oh the woe is me"-artist strikes again.
I am not looking for solutions from other people, this is a thing I must figure out myself.
With the most fashionable lottas.
Gwimbly came as a close second so I felt like drawing him in his prime.
Also is it true that you can switch your vote on Patreon or was it that just me? Would kinda ruin the point of a poll.
I've had some time to catch up to some movies I haven't seen, yet have a slight interest to them. Started off with The Last Unicorn, apparently a classic in some countries, but quite unknown where I'm from.
The movie was kinda "meh", but it was pretty to look at. Very good character designs.
The drawing is drawn on paper, yet has some insane digital edits, for example I had to cut out all of the elements to separate layers so that the coloring would be easier. In other words I did...
2024-04-24 16:18:02 +0000 UTC View PostIt's a bit late because this month has been really dry for hottest memes to find enough candidates for a poll, but here they are. Some are a bit from last month, and few are more popular on other sites than Twitter, where trends usually tend to circle around.
Let the best man win.

More The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom-comics for the upcoming 1st year anniversary.
First comic is referring to little bit of lore from the game about Rauru's hunting hobby.
The second comic has TWO variations with different last panel. The first one was what I originally had in mind, but the inclusion of the iconic sound effect "splyysh" makes the second one funnier to me. Whichever I'll upload to elsewhere will be the "official" one, and the remaining one will stay as a...

It is an unwritten rule that if a game I play has an unreasonably-sized monster girl, I need to draw her. People sort of expect it from me. This snake is no exception.
These are the original sketches.
This was the drawing I was going to go with, but after I took a break and looked at it again I thought "wh...
My pizza boxes are running out, so these are drawn wherever there were empty spots on the previous ones. I need to buy another pizza on this month, with your support it is possible, thanks!
Sometimes I'd want to redraw these, or at least do some fixes. Unfortunately doing the fixes digitally would be a bit difficult with the way these are drawn.
In any case, I hope you enjoy these. See you next time.
The competition was fierce, but this trend was voted as the most popular.
As I was looking through some of the other examples, I noticed that not many had dared to draw the background themselves, cowards I say, COWARDS!
It is understandable though with the crazy amount of tiles and little details in there, but with trusty line tool it was easy. Took more time to do than the characters though.
Thanks again for voting, I hope you enjoy the Sadako troop.
This time I gathered memes and trends I've seen in the past month. Now in Patreon poll form for your ease.
Please vote whatever sounds the funniest, even if you have no idea what they are.
I'll draw an illustration based on the winner.
If you've seen anything other worth a mention, put it in the comments.

Now that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been out for nearly a year, it's good time to unleash the comic ideas I've written for it. I have other ones planned, but this is the first of the few where Sonia and Rauru are terrible people (or goat man in Rauru's case.)
Art and text might differ from the proper version.

This is what I call the "idea sketch". It shows the basic la...

Another DELICIOUS delivery just for you, thanks!
I've realized that the characters I am scared of drawing in these are the ones who have any big elements in their design, be it long ears, big hat or huge hair. They take so much space!!
But please don't let that sway your decision of what characters to ask for. It's always a fun challenge.
A peek into the artists' DARK sense of humor!

The results of the poll this time around were a bit weird, but as a man of my word I did what got the most votes and then some more.

Solo Taimi Fumo, drawn over the Lahja fumo from some time ago.

As a GAMER I often think about what sort of a game I'd like to do myself, so I daydream a lot.
Here are the main characters of each idea I've thought more than a few seconds. In the second pic are the titles, genre and the closest inspiration.
I have no plans to make any games at all. It's just fun to think up settings and characters which work better for games rather than comics.
I liked Labyrinth of Refrain so it was a no brainer to eventually get into Labyrinth of Galleria. I can't really recommend the game since it's a 50 hour game stretched into 100 hours, but like with Refrain, the story was really good and that's what I was after anyway.
Funny celebratory illustration. As you can see the funny allergy-edition is actually the original, but I made a normal version afterwards. Who knew frolicking in the fields is not all fun and roses.

Priscilla from Dark Souls gets to used with modern technology. Fullres drawing, original and .psd-file.
2024-02-18 12:28:30 +0000 UTC View PostLast one was somewhat successful and fun, so let's do this again. Add or vote anything that's been trending in February and I'll get it drawn. Month is still halfway done, so feel free to come here later to vote if something new pops out.
If something appeared by the end of January, it's OK to mention those too.
And if there are any other pol...

Here's the piping hot delivery, this time with most characters having weird ears.
Thanks again for your support and see you next time! Gold-tier members keep an eye out for the inquiry about the next characters.
