First Thing I Drew After Being Back From Comic Con And Listening To So Many Great And Funny Artists.

How Crimes of Grindelwald should have ended

Based on a really rude drawing I did in Elemantary School where I compared my friend’s obsession with his phone with Gollum and I can see now why he wasn’t a big fan of it. So if you follow me here, no clue who does and doesn’t, I want to say again, I’m sorry for my past behavior. But also interesting how it still seems relevant all these years later with everyone being on social media and wanting more likes, more followers, more activity and I think there’s a little bit of Gollum in all of us. I try to stop myself from this and have removed all kinds of notifications and just want to focus on the fun part of all of this. I draw what I like and I share it, then I will have no clue of people will like it our not and I try not to care too much. . #photoshop #photoshopart #digitalart #digitalillustration #fanart #gollum #smeagol #lordoftherings #hobbit #tolkien #jrrtolkien #middleearth . #commissionsopen (på/i Middle-Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkqfdCUMJPE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The official sequel to that one post. It got very popular and I thought I would share the "answer" I found to my original "question".

The original comic is about growing up aneurotypical (specifically I have autism and ADHD among other things, e.g. being LGBT) in a world not made for that, and my profound feelings of alienation as a result.

Whether you share those specific problems or not, I am sincerely happy if it resonated with you and humbled that it meant something to so many people.

A popular addition to the post was "you will find your people". I think it is absolutely true that you can and will find people willing to support you and love you for who you are - I have, and their support made much of my growth possible (as well as therapy). I am grateful to the artist that made that addition and think it is important.

But I wanted to make this because to me, it was important to learn the message that you are allowed to exist as yourself, even if you were to never find a single other person who accepts you. You do not need the validation of others. Even if you feel like you were somehow made wrong, or will never fit in with anyone else, you have the right to exist.

Live authentically for yourself, and not for others. Pursue your passions.

It is intentional that the person in the comic never fully regains their color. I will never be the untraumatized child I once was. But that doesn't mean life is not worth living.

I love you, and I hope you try to live as you are.

Two years today (I think) I have been drawing these two on a regular basis! Time sure flies by

Some things I want to get done before New Year are just some re-drawings of stuff I wasn’t happy with.

First was the Chat Noir-post which itself was a redrawing of an older Miraculous Day-post.

This new one is closer to the original and more symmetric. Doesn’t feel as all-over-the-place as V.2 and looks better side-by-side with Ladybug.

My friend requested an Ant-Man. But I assume he meant Scott… and the MCU-version. But I felt classic Hank and his questionable stability was more in line with my stuff and my own selfish interests.

I kind of love making these kind of drawings and just curious if there's a character I should add? Do have plans to try to make X-Men or Teen Titans but can be other stuff as well. Some Villains or stuff outside of Marvel and DC perhaps
