Other Ever Afters: New Queer Fairy Tales by Melanie Gillman

a book from one of my favorite comic authors here on tumblr, @/melgillman! if you've been around this site for a while, you've likely already seen four of the comics she's published in this book: The Fish Wife, Sweet Rock, Hsthete and The King's Forest. def give this book a read if you liked any of those!!

like all comic anthologies, its comics weren't all made equal. i think the four i listed above stood stronger on their own than the newer works made for this book. working under the limits of an image post count and narrow work time frame (even if gillman didn't follow the 24 hour rule to the letter) means you must maximize telling your story in the most efficient way possible to get it across the nebulous audience of the internet. comics made for a published book don't have those limits, which is why i think the newer works didn't have the same impact on me.

this book was still an enjoyable read regardless, and i'm excited to read more of melanie gillman's future works! she's got a lot more work on her tumblr, so check that out with her book as well.

I don't know what I miss more, having free time to draw or these fellas

The raven cycle!!!!

Oh I love these guys. Everything about these books, I want to draw them soooo much more (I probably will)!!

Guys I'm back-

It has been a nightmare lately this is the only thing I managed to draw in weeks? Finals and uni stuff that's taking all of my time and energy, slowly turning me into a cafeinated slug (worst part is caffeine doesn't even have an effect on me? I only drink coffee for the TASTE can you imagine). Anyway the rush won't be over until end of January but hopefully I'll be able to ignore the stress and draw anyway :)

#maggie stiefvater #the raven cycle #trc #the raven boys #gansey #ronan lynch #noah czerny #blue sargent #adam parrish #and they were all in love with each other #i lack words to express the amount off feelings i get when thinking about them #i wish i could go on silly quests to look for welsh kings in magic dream forests #i wish i could draw them more #i wish i could draw more #... #anyway feel free to print this shit as a bookmark if you want

What if a small child wandered onto cryptid Wukong's territory and was lost?

bro is nice to kids

in fact he tries not to show himself to people during the day, no matter whether he wants to help them or scare them because everyone knows that people love to chase after everything scary and big. Wukong knows this too and if they see he in the light of day, then it will be impossible to hide from them he tries not to even get too close to them (but small children are an exception)

(he meows because he knows that people love cats. he loves them too) (his meowing isn't cute...)

#lmk hum!au with cryptid wukong #bro can speak human #lmk #monkie kid #lego monkie kid #sun wukong #monkey king #art #lmk au #we have a completely random child here #this child will then tell her mother about a big strange creature in the forest #mother won't believe this

we often talk about how absurd it was for andrew, five feet tall and a single man, to decide he could take on an entire mafia, but what makes it even more ridiculous is that he was 20. I'm twenty and i've never felt more like a baby in my entire life, but andrew joseph minyard, who's not legally allowed to drink and has never had to deal with taxes because nicky's probably the one to do them, took one look at kevin and neil and considered he was strong enough to deal with the fucking mafia

The Trophy Hunter

Very proud of this piece and that I finally managed to finish it :) Most of my artworks just need the right time.

I guess my interpretation of 'Ego death' :)

Funny thing a crown can do It makes one think they're better than you They think their circlet makes them God That they won't be burried beneath the sod So remind them with a blade or mace That they lack any divine grace. -ThePoetGoblin (on Twitter)

A lovely generic walk in the woods with Our Generic Queen and her snappy, annoyed aunt (that’s Frida and Moffe, for those who haven’t caught on to all the lunacy that’s been my blog the past days 😂😂) by my moms place 🌿🌳 it’s such a fun forest! Lots of things to see and experience. I spent almost the entire time walking with some garbage I collected (I can’t stand when ppl throw things like a plastic cup (WHYYY??) and other things that don’t belong in nature, in nature, so we cleaned up a little. Look how lovely it is 🌸🌿🍃

Having a bad day. Passing the evening painting with my gouache to settle down. And playing with TAD. Here is the fox for Madeleine, the "hidden" deer for Joey. And the spirit of the forest for both of them.

I am currently inspired by their gig in the forest.
