Illustration of small, cutesy incarnation of Pomni, from The Amazing Digital Circus. A woman with stark white skin wearing a red and blue striped jester outfit with yellow trim and pom-poms. She stands tiny in the lower middle section of the screen with extra huge, glistening sad eyes and her arms slumped down. An official rendering of the tent interior from the show can be faintly seen in the background.

Illustration of Chibi-Robo, a small metal toy-ike robot, on a tie-dye green background. He is opening the hatch atop his head and ejecting a signboard with a red "X" at an exaggerated perspective. Chibi's outlet plug releases bolts of electricity to the right, while Telly Vision, a smaller helicopter robot, looks up at the X sign with with surprise to his left.

Illustration of Morshu, the shopkeeper from the CD-i Zelda game "Link: The Faces of Evil." He is rendered small with dot-eyed, chibi proportions in the bottom middle of the frame with his shop from the game faintly visible on the pale orange background. A portly balding man with pointed elven ears and a boxy brown mustache holding up a sparkling red gemstone up to the viewer. He wears a tiny green hat with a purple feather, an orange long-sleeve shirt, a brown vest with yellow trim, and green pants.

I started using Flash in 2008, fresh outta high school on my cheap little Wacom Bamboo.
I proceeded to digitally draw, animate, illustrate, & create almost exclusively in the program for 17+ years.
Here's the first dumpy little toon I ever made with audio from "2 Stupid Dogs."

Gobbles the Learnosaurus Rex (2016)
I made this way back when @rubberross.bsky.social followed me on Twitter.
A part of me will always rather miss Gobbles having a more simple, childish look - but I'm VERY excited to see what Gamoverse has evolved into over all these years!

Majora's Mask themed illustration traced over the scene from "Clerks: The Animated Series" where Dante and Randal are holding a rope and revealed to be walking horizontally on a rooftop at night, rather than vertically up a wall. Randal is dressed as Tingle in full green leotard and red bikini briefs. Dante is dressed as Link, wearing a green tunic and hat. The smashed flower vase on the ground now has a heart piece and a blue rupee amongst the dirt and broken pieces.
"Why are we walking like this?"

Happy Vacation Carl (2020) ๐๐ฐ
6 years ago I still lived in Pennsylvania and made this GIF to celebrate a 2-week trip I was about to take visiting my folks in Florida.
I was blissfully unaware a pandemic was about to derail society and I'd be living with them 6 months later.

On the on hand, Iโm proud of myself for managing to make at least one good habit stick 2000 days in a row.
On the other hand, processing the passage of 2000 days is making my brain shortcircuit a little bit - How? How???

Illustration of my OC, Perry Cordial, a very muscular, dark-skinned man whose hair resembles a bright red maraschino cherry with a cowlick as the stem. He wears an ice cream parlor uniform consisting of a paper hat, white dress shirt with rolled-up sleeves, orange bow tie, pink vest, orange shorts with a waffle cone pattern, and orange shoes with matching brown laces and socks. His shirt and vest are comically tight, with the buttons visibly straining and his midriff peeking through. Perry stands with a friendly smile while holding a precariously tall 4-scoop ice cream cone. The background behind him is a soft pink with a faint photograph of ice cream.
Doodle of a muscular fairy bodybuilder with spiky hair, pointy ears, and a prominent underbite chin with a snaggletooth. His sweatband and eyebags give him a scowling expression. He is shirtless and dripping with sweat, clad in only a grass skirt and wrist/ankle bands.
Whiteboard drawing of Aaron, the merhorse from Undertale, confidently flexing his sweaty muscles. He has a horse head with long flowing dark hair, a humanoid upper body with a 12-pack bodybuilder physique, and a serpentine lower body ending with a fish tail. The text reads: "Undertale, 10 Years, 2015-2025."
"Biceptember (All at once)." Illustration of an absurdly muscular bodybuilder, seen from the torso up and shining with bronzer as he flexes his muscles. His left arm is extra exaggerated, towering far above him with eight extra bicep heads. They cartoonishly stack atop one another, getting gradually decreasing in size from a wrecking-ball sized mounds of meat on the bottom to a little muscly nub on top.

Illustration of an smiling old-school Mickey Mouse sporting Young Link's outfit and sword from "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time." His lower half is obscured by a big word balloon that reads "WOW!" in big red-orange letters.
2-panel comic based on exchange between Angel and Steve on "ProZD Plays Games," drawn over frames of the Simpsons episode "Two Bad Neighbors" with dialogue boxes and backgrounds from Ace Attorney 3. Panel 1: Angel's skunk fursona drawn over and resembling Ned Flanders, holding a small sign that says "bur." They say into a microphone: "Would it have been the same joke where she's, like- It's like, 'RAMEN,' or something?" Panel 2: Steve drawn over and resembling Mrs. Glick. He grabs Angel's microphone to aggressively responding "No, it's 'BUR." In 'HAMBURGER." 90 dollars!"
Recreation of the logo for Toy Story that instead says "Evidence Story."
Illustration traced over a frame from the Studio Ghibi film "Laputa: Castle in the Sky" that replaces the burly mining foreman, flexing so hard his shirt explodes to shreds, with Dick Gumshoe from the Ace Attorney games.

Illustration of Super Mario and Donkey Kong in a dot-eyed cartoon style with exaggerated proportions and rendered in a red, white, and blue palette. Mario is standing to the left holding up a peace sign. Donkey Kong is standing to the right with his fists planted on the ground. The background has a cardboard texture with the girders from the original Donkey Kong arcade game faintly visible.
Illustration of a towering skyscraper-sized giant Funky Kong smiling confidently. He casually grips at the waist of his shorts with his left hand while wrapping his right arm around a tall building and propping his left foot on top of a smaller one.
19 doodles drawn with textured black lines arranged closely together in a collage on a crumpled paper background. There are 15 Donkey Kong doodles and one doodle each of Diddy Kong, Tiny Kong, Young Pauline, and King K. Rool. The logo in the upper right says "Bananza Bonanza."
Whiteboard drawing of Yolky Kong, an Eggdog that looks like a Donkey Kong-style gorilla. The body is that of a muscular ape, with an Eggdog on top for the head, which sports DK's famous hair swirl. Bananas and strawberries line the sides of the image while "Yolky Kong" is in large letters overhead.

Illustration of a tiny New Year's 'lemon pig' in the lower center of the frame. A lemon with cloves for eyes, ears sliced into the rind, toothpicks for legs, and a tinfoil tail. The bump on the end of the lemon acts as the 'nose' and has a lucky penny lodged underneath in the 'mouth.' A faint image of a pile of lemons can be seen in the background.
Illustration of Link in his "Breath of the Wild" incarnation in a dot-eyed cartoon style, rendered in a red, white, and blue palette. He stands smiling with the Master Sword in his left hand and the Hylian Shield in his right. The background has a cardboard texture with an overworld field from the game faintly visible.
An illustration of the titular character from the pseudonymjones comic "Worm-in-a-Rock God," an earthworm with an angular rock for a head that has a single eye. They sit in the lower center middle of the frame, radiating a faint glowing aura. The background has a weathered leather book cover texture with the faint silhouette of Worm-in-a-Rock God's head visible.
Illustration of Daffodil, the cute titular dog from Smallbu's series of short animations, sitting dot-eyed and small in the lower center of the frame. The background has a repeating floral pattern on turquoise.

"Carl's 2025 Art Year in Review" A selection of 12 drawings/animations I made throughout 2025, arranged in three rows of four. January - Illustration of Perry Cordial, my muscly ice-cream vendor OC with an ice cream cone motif topped by hair shaped like a maraschino cherry. February - My (also) ice-cream-themed 35th birthday animation, with a 2D Carl enjoying a 3D ice cream cone in a 3D ice creamscape. March - X scowling in depressed defeat in Number Lore 05, which I animated three scenes for. April - ProZD Plays Games fanart of Dick Gumshoe, from Ace Attorney, flexing his shirt to shreds like that scene from Castle in the Sky. May - Illustration I made for the Tournament Arc card game trailer with Tempest Freight crossing a finish line while a crowd of characters cheers. June - A kaiju-sized beefed-up Funky Kong I drew casually posing amongst skyscrapers for both "Kaijune" and "Funky Kong Friday." July - A set of three summer food-themed sticker designs I made for Yetee's Stickermoon: a dog spilling a tall burger, a mouse diving into pink lemonade, and a cat enjoying a huge popsicle. August - The intro card for "Trouble Trouble," the animated short I made for Borderlands, featuring Claptrap and Trouble the spectral tiger. September - A set of Chibi-Robo whiteboard doodles I made throughout September, covering the entire game's cast. October - Illustration of a huge muscular male torso holding a tray of freshly baked cookies. November - Drawing of a cute little ice cream float clown with a cherry nose, based on a melon soda photograph by Keita Takahashi. December - Profile picture of myself as a Christmas-themed monarch named "Sofa King Jolly," decked out in festive objects while sitting on a red sofa in the snow.
2025 was... a year, to put it mildly.
I'm glad I made art pretty consistently throughout.
Forgive my showcasing 3 different ice cream-themed pieces - me cooking up a named OC for a change and making a personal animation seemed pretty notable... but melon soda clown was just a fave, haha ๐ฆ

Sketchy-lined illustration of the Tin Wood Man, a reimagined iteration of the Tin Woodman from the Wizard of Oz, rendered in a blue-gray palette. A robotic creature made entirely from of shiny metallic wood. Their body consists of a metal log on two wheels with humanoid arms (one hand an axe). They have hollow circle eyes, a tree branch nose, and a hinged mouth. A train-like smokestack on top of the main log billows steam.
The Tin Wood Man ๐ค๐ชต๐
A woodsman's soul cursed within an automaton of rust-prone tin. Though he no longer sleeps, he must regularly ingest lumber to keep his engine fueled. Decades away from his organic body have dulled his sense of self, struggling to feel emotions at all.
#CarlArt #WizardOfOz #Oz
Sketchy-lined illustration of the Cow-ardly Lion, a reimagined iteration of the Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz, rendered in a warm palette. A horned bipedal minotaur-like creature with a somber expression. They spotted fur resembling a dairy cow, but with lion-like paws and a red mane with a cow bell hanging down.
The Cow-ardly Lion ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐
Despite formidable size & strength, this lumbering softie is exceptionally meek. He thinks himself a dishonor to both his mighty minotaur & legendary leotaur heritage, but there rests in him untapped potential to become a legendary King of Beasts.

Sketchy-lined illustration of the Scare Crow, a reimagined iteration of the Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz, rendered in a green palette. A button-eyed scarecrow shaped like a crow with a rounded beak and visible stitching. They wear a pilgrim-esque outfit with both their hands and tail are made of exposed flat straw.
The Scare Crow ๐ฆโโฌ๐พ๐ง
Whomever crafted this scarecrow for the corn fields had a rather different interpretation of the word. The straw-stuffed squawker's stubborn insistence that he doesn't have brains seems at odds with his avian knack for using tools & puzzle-solving.

I've zero investment in all the current Wicked hoopla, but while world of Oz is back in the zeitgeist I took a stab at some remixed reimaginings of Dorthy's travel companions for fun:
