Mixed Drinks: Zenigata Intro

Zenigata’s intro for a fun AU Max and I are dabbling in! What if Lupin was a thief by day and a bartender by night? What if Zenigata had facial blindness? What if they flirted?

Mixed Drinks Intro: Lupin

Okay okay, we don’t normally do this but Max and I are excited to do some fun art for an AU we’ve been thinking about. I’ll tag this one as Mixed Drinks. I’ll post these occasionally on Fridays for this! It won’t be a full comic, but doodles, illustrations and mini comics all mixed in.

If I run .5 miles to the spot where I parked my car, drive two miles towards my job, and then run another mile the rest of the way there, I can save -3000 dollars on gas when I pass out and the ambulance has to come revive me.

March 2024 Lupin Weekly Art Prompts

My weekly art prompt drawings from March that I’m hosting over at LupinIII.club! With the prompts: Jigen’s depression meal, Fujiko using glitter as a weapon, Zenigata not being able to take compliments, and Jigen and Goemon put too much trust in a magic 8 ball.

In one of those soulmate mark aus, Jigen would have Lupin's handprint on his chest, just over his heart.

Hey, if you haven’t heard yet, this Tax Day, Monday, April 15 is the national #Strike4Gaza.

That means no work, no school, no spending, and PROTEST. Our U.S. government is abusing our tax dollars to arm Israel with deadly weapons, killing 41,000+ Palestinians in Gaza these past six months. We all need to resist if we’re ever going to end this genocide. Will you join me?

1. Learn more: https://strike4gaza.org

2. Find a protest: https://uscpr.org/protest

3. Look up your city to see how much you and your neighbors are paying for genocide every year: https://www.notmytaxdollars.org

Then share it during the #Strike4Gaza social media storm on Monday: https://uscpr.org/Strike4Gaza

4. Tell Congress to stop arming Israel: https://www.notmytaxdollars.org/take-action

Then, during the strike on Monday, hit the streets. Talk about Palestine everywhere you go. Post about where our tax dollars are going all day on social media.

Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard)

Aaron Rutten (free)

BoroCG (free)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Libresprite (free, for pixel art)

Those are the ones I can recall.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

An artist : Aw man! I saw my arts were reposted on Instagram. I’ve asked them to take my arts down but they ignored me.

Me : Say no more! Click this link, then click ‘fill out this form’. Fill the form and wait for about 1-2 days, the staffs will remove the image you were reporting from the reposter’s account :^)

My friend's kid gave me pinkeye and I have been on a particularly fuckt up sleep schedule about it and dreamed an entire Italian Opera on the themes of heaven and hell and the power of love and recognition of the self in other and the tragedy of loving the idea of something rather than the thing itself and the dream ended with the phrase "-And then it was banned EVERYWHERE."

Sibling: You smell like clown.

Me, rapidly losing self worth: I...smell like a clown?

Sibling: No, like your perfume clown.

Cologne. She meant cologne.

Right Hand Man

Had this idea for a while and I’m real pleased with how it turned out! Inspired by a chapter cover for the Lupin III Y Manga. {Image Description: Black and white drawing of Lupin III standing in the middle of the canvas. He’s smiling, smoking a cigarette and holding his tie with his left hand while his right hand is partially in his pants pocket. He’s wearing all black except for his white tie. The background is completely black, but to Lupin’s right there’s a hint of Jigen standing in the shadows behind him. He’s very difficult to see, and we see some of his gun through the smoke of Lupin’s cigarette.]

"idk your feminism isn't sitting well with me when it's only loud about hairy armpits and barbie and not countless women unable to access bare minimum feminine care, no anesthesia during childbirth, shortages in sanitary products, women shelters closing down, Iactating mothers being a higher risk for malnutrition, young girls having no access to education, food or water, and the list worsens" [tiktok video uploaded by a person behind the screen with this caption above while the viral song "labour" by Paris Paloma plays in the background with part of the chorus: "All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid/Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant/Just an appendage, live to attend him/So that he never lifts a finger..."

I started drawing this like a month ago and forgot about it until now
