Anonymous asked: Sorry, WHAT COMIC WITH GLADSTONE IN A DRESS
this one here! it’s a short silly one (that doesn’t quite fit with the Distelfink canon or my idea of Gladstone’s understanding of his luck) but I have a soft spot for it. in fact, I drop the painting that Gladstone wanted to get hold of in a couple of the doodle comics backgrounds :D
one of the few crossdressing ducks that didn’t make me break out in hives, on account of not having been forced to do it for emasculating reasons or anything, it’s just a practical solution to daisy having too many obligations since they look exactly, and i mean exactly the same
one of those obligations was manning a kissing booth for charity and donald punching a catcaller in the face escalates into guys just fucking lining up to get decked by a cute little duck
Anonymous asked: UHHHHHHH WHY ARE COMICS SO HARD TO FIND There’s a comic that has Gladstone and Fethry searching for a rare flower (I think there’s also something to do with gravity?) but I can’t remember where I found it. I have a feeling it was through you though - ring a bell?
I got you buddy no worries also I am going to bed now aaaa goodnIGHTtumblr
practice heads and an old how-do-ducks thing from patreon (drawn over the far superior model sheet of Carl Barks to demonstrate my blob body/limbs technique): these days I almost always do the blobs left handed and the line right handed, but it gets switched up occasionally. I do this random-floating-heads thing once in a while especially if I feel I’ve gotten foggy on forms
OKAY SO THIS IS THE LAZIEST FASTEST ONE YET but it’s only 8 pages and boy I got a lotta stuff to get on with. this is more of a light hearted intermission story anyway so I hope you don’t mind :’D
Today in “Yet another thing I like about Gladstone” let’s talk about how he doesn’t abuse his power.
His luck can (and often does) give him anything he needs. He even ask for stuff… he is been know to cause natural phenomena (minor…so far). His luck is border line impossible. He breaks every probability and he know it.
He is fully aware.
He understands completely how much more he could get, after all, is not like his luck would allow any suffering into his perfect life. But he doesn’t takes more than what he needs.
In the comic referenced above, he wanted the money only for the raffle ticket. Once that necessity is full filled, he decides he doesn’t need that money at all. The thought of investing it or buy a lottery ticket that would turn him rich in a second knowing that he can’t lose, doesn’t even cross his mind. He has live “in the moment” his whole life, never planning for tomorrow. Lady Luck has him covered, if he is too win the lottery, he would no matter what he does. So, why bother? Everything would be ok.
He may be egotistical, proud, childish and empathy-lacking to a degree, but he is not the tyrant he could have been.
He knows how to live an eccentric, yet simple life.
