Ahmed Saad or @/90-ghost's brother in law is currently doing his best to organise the evacuation of his family from Gaza. This family suffers from a combination of ailments that all require medical attention. This is the description on their GFM page:

Hello, I hope you all are doing well!

My name is Mohamed Monir Ahmad Mahmoud, I’m a hemophilia patient from Gaza. I decided to start this campaign with all the hope that you could support me in evacuating Gaza to do surgery for me and my daughter and start a fresh life with my 5 kids out of the ongoing genocide in Gaza [...] I was supposed to go out at the end of 2023 to have surgery on my knees but since 7 October, I had no chance due to the procedures on Rafah crossing, the gate of Gazans to the world. Now, my knees and elbows are bleeding with no access to any type of care and if things stand as they are in Gaza, I won’t be able to walk or make any effort because of the bleeding (currently I am barely able to set up a small fire in front of the tent to prepare food for my kids).

What I ask is 60,000, for travel costs because each one would need to pay 5,000-8,000$ to be allowed to leave Gaza through Rafah crossing and we need around 3000$ more in Egypt for our stay and to obtain visas. We will be heading to Brazil where my brother Diaa lives and there is a huge chance to do the surgeries and access health care as the health care for Hemophilia patients in Brazil is one of the most advanced in the world.

please give generously!!

OH I’m a hack and a fraud and I forgot to jump on this, Ahem, BOTW/ZELDA ANON!!

You should check out @turbofanatic ‘s work rn if you haven’t seen it already! Buncha neat Zelda stuff goin on lately :]

Now the Zelda you’re most likely to see out of Me is if I can ever play twilight Princess unmirrored again, or if I finally get annoyed enough looking at endgame midna

I do have one fanart though, check this shit out

Really, what could I ever do to top this

#I swear I’ve posted this before but it was either on Twitter or I didn’t tag it #so why not #zelda #link #midna #it’ll never stop bugging me that they flipped the ENTIRE GAME for wii #surely you could have just flipped LINK!!!!

More old art that I think might exist in some sketchbooks somewhere! I think may have been saving them Just In Case I do story stuff, but who knows if I ever will...so here's the original first passes at Vashti She's a very hydrated mummy who absolutely should not be out on the loose. And also umami's jugs

#ocs #vashti #umami #art #2025 is gonna be me twisting my arm to both post on main and patreon more often

[deadwooddross]

once again realizing I barely have anything posted anywhere, here's an old expression meme feat Umami and her weird eyespot/shadow Gotta do some extra work when half your face may or may not exist

#umami #art #ocs

Sometimes I forget I can post things..... Here's characters/shapes/colors stuck in my head! Some old ones and one mystery new one who won't tell me her name yet. I've been putting them through the Elden ringer to see if any neurons light up, and Piper (congrats if you remember her)makes a good golden order fundamentalist. She's basically covered in advanced physics equations bc elden ring fundies are essentially studying thermodynamics, solve for God(s) The mystery one is a mystery and I though she was lyell or dag for a bit but she may in fact be someone else! We're doing fusion and mitosis to make characters up in here. Everyone pictured is a she and a her aside from Seth's they/them ass

#reblog #i just like how these came out

Love your art. Can you please get into legend of zelda botw so I can see your takes on the rito, zora, and gorons plz, thanks /hj

Thanks! Depends, would you come to a Commission stream where you throw a certain amount of dollar bills at me and I draw whatever fandom thingy you desire for an hour or so /srs

(But like for real, would that be something people are interested in, if I can get streaming to work….I certainly get enough asks about if I’ll ever draw x)

#I noticed streaming from iPad might finally have some workarounds so it could be possible #that’s the main reason I ever stopped tbh #answers to questions

Since I’m doing polls, perhaps you can help me decide what direction to organize my patreon a bit…

Trying to figure out how to rearrange my middle tiers, they’re a little weird rn because I’ve been through quite a few changes over the years while I figure out what I can keep up with. Rn we have, stacking (the highest tier gets everything in the previous tier):

$5: half or so of my sketchbooks

$10: the rest of my sketchbooks

$20: a monthly sticker

On one hand I don’t Really want to paywall my doodles so that’s why they’re on the low end, on the other hand $20 is a lot for a sticker if you dont want the sketchbooks, and my scribbles will just pile up into lots of art anyway...SO...

#another reblog and then I shall do one last one before it ends #sanks for the input so far it’s got the gears turning m

[deadwooddross]

do feel free to leave me some replies on those polls and such if you have thoughts, im talking directly to THEE whomst have decided to follow me, so ur input is a plus

#and then i need to figure out if i should consolidate the $1 and $2 into a single tip tier or what #back in the DAY it didn't take $2 to equal $1 #but noooo now you cant even buy vienna sausages for a dollar #poll #maybe delete later?? #not art

[deadwooddross]

Pals doing character asks and I wanna do some too....so...pspsps, Ask my characters things and they shall answer/I shall doodle a reply!

#let me know WHOMST #I shall do my best though some ocs are more prominent than others at present #dross talks #one day ill have a toyhouse or something so you can all browse the beasts easier

[deadwooddross]

(i Will go back to everlasting haitus if that GFM slows down too much btw, seeing it to its goal ASAP is my primary focus right now)

#getting close!

[deadwooddross]

This was Meant to be a design for an upcoming sticker, but I like it enough that I wanna post it now!! Just a friendly, flirty mummy….who wants a kiss? Gonna see about getting this as maybe a print… But for now, STICKERS || PATREON

#bringing my mummy to the top #I want to do a rerun of these and my blue collar dog for patreon this/next month #bc I accidentally got them too small last time!!!!! #self reblog

Doing a little poll on twitter, might as well do one here YOU! Would you be interested in CHARACTER LINE UP/REF COMMS? IE 2+ characters standing next to each other, with or without clothes, that sort of thing. Or headshots? Or inventory? Or something else??

Trying to warm up to the idea of some more standard reference type commissions, as well as maybe breaking things down into more affordable Parts. I only just got my day job schedule adjusted and have some older work to catch up on so it'll be awhile, but. For future reference

How's Croc doing?

she's relaxing on vacation right now while I put Thavu (And Umami) in the blender instead, but she's never truly safe from the whims of the blorbo pain machine Keeping her safe in my pocket for the day I feel like doing a deep dive into a bounty/monster hunter type spin again tho...I didn't quite splash in there enough last time

#I love that y'all still ask about croc and jorah in particular #my grumpy girl stans #not art #answers to questions #i go through cycles of charcter interest but dont worry #they all live in my brain forever all the time #even now im digging up dusty old ocs from when i was 15 to spit shine and put back in the display case

answering this one oldschool style: I was watching westworld with my friends so this iteration of all of them is western themed, but I cant recall if anything specific from that was part of the inspo? Polly has always been the quiet freaky one to pair with Castors chattier self. They're both usually mercs/bounty hunters/hunting dogs that "answer to" Croc The polly pictured here is the Silent Sniper sort, their poncho is all fabric cut from targets clothes stitched together and with nicely embroidered/embellished bullet holes. Trophy! Here's another pic of them that I apparently never posted here?? More nicely done up

#i did NOT count the hat tallies to match the poncho so i have no idea if they correlate correctly #maybe some were just for fun #also apparently I posted this early on patreon which means i probably forgot to post it on tumblr fjhdhjg good job me #pollux #ocs #art #otiose

[deadwooddross]

Looking through some old art and realizing: I don't think I ever posted some of my favorite Castors? And a couple pollies too Huge mean tarantula woman, her personality is essentially that of Mr. Hyde from the one Van Helsing movie, you know the one. For every character I get attached to and make a little more tender soft, she gets one additonal bastard point added to her mean meter

#shaped like a barrel and filled with a fondness for violence #art #ocs #doodles #castor #pollux #i forget sometimes the sheer amount of cookie and co stuff that just never got posted #otiose
