land-of-blitheness-and-catharsis:
a full-grown duck only weighs twenty pounds. i’m having a crisis. that’s not even ten kilograms. that’s nothing. a slight breeze could knock them over. i could carry them in a little backpack. by all accounts, if they tried to headbutt someone human-sized, it should look like a confused bumblebee bumping into a window. they’re just sacks of feathers. how does society accommodate such tiny birds. i’ll trust uncle scrooge as far as i can throw him, and it turns out that may actually be pretty far.

As a thank you to Paolo De Lorenzi for encouraging and inspiring me to keep trying my best- a Gyro to go with the set of portraits I did before! I think a lot of cartoonists look up to this gentle, mad-idea-generating genius, and his Little Helper too, of course!
Finished some! Scrooge and Goldie are cute, overprotective Donald is teaching his little nephews his very own way, and also there are some science brothers! :3
Doodle requests are closed.
So this crazy amazing thing happened- Paolo De Lorenzi who is an official Disney cartoonist (who’s worked on amazingly rad things such as Donald Quest) was super kind and sent me a message about my doodle comics, had a real nice conversation giving me art advice, and then he did this out of the blue! You might recognise the sketch on the far left- which I did- and then the ones on the right are his! He inked and coloured my sketch?! So that’s… incredible? Anyway I thought you’d get as much of a kick out of this as I did because I’m kinda blown away rn
I don’t know what to add but gosh what a cool guy just, wow, his tumblr is over here so please go check it out if you like weeping over beautiful duck sketches.
some Gyro study/practice for warm up ‘cause I still don’t know how to draw my fav inventor ha ha :’D
makes me miss wearing waistcoats…
Anonymous asked: just wanted to say that I had a really bad day today, and then I discovered your duck-comics. they really helped me through the day, thinking about them and knowing I could reread them when I came back home. thank you, you made my day so much better
aw man, I’m so glad- they are such good therapy for me too, like, no matter what happens this cast of characters and their universe still exists out there in so many stories and in so many peoples’ hearts
also again, for folks wanting to read the comics and wondering where to start, there’s a big ole links post over here!
