My drawing of a siren singing karaoke to attract sailors.

Heck yeah, this is great! Thanks for sharing!
Gosh, I love drawing and seeing other people's drawings.
If you draw, share with me your current favorite that you've done. I wanna see it.
New concept: a bar, but the music isn't so loud that you have to shout.
What if we all put up Side Quest board in front of our home with things we need and things we'll trade for them?
"Please pull twenty (20) large weeds from my yard and you will get one (1) haircut."
Got Stumptown coffee for the first time in years. Did they get a new bean source? The drip coffee wasn't anywhere near as good as it used to be. ๐

I feel like "content" should be reassigned to describe what AI creates. Meaningless slop is "content". Humans create art.
As easily as you have sworn off Harry Potter pish, you can stop buying games from Microsoft or Microsoft owned studios.
This is such a small ask and low bar to clear, there are thousands of other games available at any moment, but the impact can be huge.
Some wildly popular series needs to steal the name Harry Potter. Please. It would be so funny.
I know there is like only one (1) person excluding me who liked my Creature Comics, but I am feeling the itch again to start them back up.
The fact that Las Vegas isn't like THE vegan capital of the US feels like a major missed opportunity.
I'm starting a major chain of restaurants called Las Vegan that include slot machines that will give you free side dishes. Come on. How easy is that?
"Defect, GI. It is a very good idea to leave a sinking ship. They lie to you, GI. You know you cannot win this war."
I got my very first ever popular post on here recently and suddenly the site breaks.
Coincidence? I think not.
Artists! Show what built your style!
I wear these influences on my sleeves, honestly...
A drawing of a flame's silhouette with text inside it that reads "All you had to do was pay us enough to live".
Feels poignant.
A drawing of Jenova from FFVII.
A drawing of a curupira standing amongst trees.
A drawing of a beetle holding a sword, battling a bird that is swooping in from the sky.
A drawing of a "Queen of Hearts" interpretation. She is wearing cloaks and capes and organic shaped equipment that resembles a human heart. She is holding a large red axe.

I'm Ben, a freelance illustrator and concept artist.
I've done work for video games, TTRPGs, and books. I've been focusing more on my line-art lately, so I'll share some recent drawings.
I also do more rendered work. (Link below!)

I was on the phone with TurboTax for an hour today trying to explain that I have a subscription that includes a free filing. The best they could offer was 30% off the cost that I shouldn't have had to pay.
Ended up filing for free elsewhere. It was about time I stopped giving Intuit my money anyway.

A drawing of a character wearing a suit and tie. The suit has stars all over it. The character is floating in what looks like sunshine while space (darkness, stars, swirls of colors) explodes out from the neck of the shirt within the suit.
My drawing for this week's theme of "space suit".
Is it a suit made of space or a suit containing space? Why not both?
Sure! Just don't sell it, etc. I appreciate that you asked!
That would be quite apt. I'm going to have to look into a way to make that reality!
Thank you! The quote really stuck with me.
Thank you! I feel like it's kind of a weird middle ground since the quote isn't mine, but the design is.
I guess I'd say, you could totally use it as inspiration, but just ask the tattoo artist to do their own spin on it!
(Thank you for asking, as well!)
The whole thing really tapped into some clear frustration. Especially when the answer is so simple.
Oh wow, this really popped off.
Is this where I link to my Patreon? (There's a free tier too, since I'm not big on paywalls.)

Trent Reznor performing for Nine Inch Noize at Coachella.

Undoubtedly the coolest 60-year-old out there.
Imagine being one of those crusty mummy people crawling around grabbing Trent Reznor during the NIN set at Coachella and trying to put that on your resume.
