Ok. The "comic cartoon" featuring Mugman's over. So, even though It's going to be over soon, I will be uploading "Drawtober23'" from Deviant Art. First up; Spooky. A spooky monster.
Cutting Crew is a humanoid colony Stand with the ability to switch the height and width of objects. Consisting of 12 units clad in jumpsuits, they each come equipped with a jetpack and handheld blaster. The blaster is utilized in swapping the height and width of objects, with a minimum of 1 blaster per object. If multiple blasters are used above the minimum amount, the swap process is sped up.
A JoJo Stand concept that I had saved from a generator and finally got around to drawing.

Another older piece. At the time, I want to say I was playing a ton of Sonic Origins. This was inspired by Sonic 3 and Knuckles' Icecap Zone - with a bit of a modern flair from Sonic Adventure's Icecap.
Broccoli is delicious and nutritious, but it is not the best at critical thinking.
Some humans also reject reality as willingly as this broccoli does.
Eat more vegetables. lol
After forcing myself through some long lasting 100 layer paintings, just doing a quick two day one feels refreshing. I will hang this one on the wall, but for the bigger version im gonna make a more natural looking fox cub.

I highly recommend the book, Gender and Competition: How Men and Women Approach Work and Play Differently, by Kathleen J. DeBoer.
In it, among other things, she elucidates that those with a conceptually masculine perspective (regardless of sex) are drawn to thinking of the world in hierarchies, which I have represented here with a triangle in the mind of the spotter on the left. She elaborates that those with a conceptually feminine perspective (again, regardless of sex) are draw to thinking of the world in webs, which I have represented here with a circle.
Those that think more masculine-ly are more likely to expect beginners in a sport or field to prove themselves in the group. They will often not "hold their punches" (i.e. curb their ability) to make newcomers comfortable. All members of the group are expected to "earn their keep," in a sense. When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they move up in the hierarchy.
Contrary to that, those that think more feminine-ly likely show acceptance and approval to beginners in order to foster an environment in which they will perform. They will often adjust their skills so that newcomers can more readily "keep up." When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they are expected to raise the status of the group as a whole. The playing field is "flattened" in that sense.
I am not advocating for either perspective, but I will share that I have a more conceptually feminine perspective, and that I have previously left groups whose members have a more masculine perspective.
Kathleen's book really helped me personally to understand the motivations of people that I genuinely did not understand prior to reading the book. It put a lot into perspective for me, and I hold fewer grudges these days.
Cheers, fam~
Went to my old friend the watermark, so if I put up new pieces you'll see them a lot more often. Sorry, but it's to counter with AI and art theft. Another older piece but something a bit more fitting of the current season. Completely used colored pencils aside from signature in ink.
