Commission – Violet Bit Kitten

a commission art shows Violet Bit Kitten, a cute girl with pale skin, gold glasses, and purple eyes, wearing a purple dress with purple hair. Her cat ears are also purple.

Check out this commission I finished for Violet Bit Kitten!

Violet Bit Kitten asked me to draw her VTuber persona, and I was happy to get such a cutie to draw. If you would like to see how I drew her, check out this live-stream replay on YouTube.

(Be sure to subscribe to Violet Bit Kitten, as well. She’s a pretty chill streamer!)

I love drawing characters! If you would like me to draw a commission for you, I’m available. Here’s a page with more info.

That said, I do recognize that funds might be tight. But if you have a membership of $5/month on Ko-Fi or Fan Clubs, you get exclusive discounts on my commissions (plus other perks)! Sometimes commission spots are available on Crowdfunding campaigns, like Mr. Dino Pride Keychains on Crowdfundr. (By the way, you have UNTIL OCT 6 to get Mr. Dino merch.)

That’s all for now. Thank you for your support!

Punk Rock Daniel (An Art Post)

a young blonde man with lightly spiked hair winks and smiles at the viewer, with one hand making a "rock" symbol. He wears a green vest with torn sleeves and a pink heart patch on one side. He has a guitar case strung on his back.

This is Daniel Scouter in punk rock looks…because why not? I wanted to draw him, Jamie Roberts, and Thomas Doran in punk looks.

I drew him (and the other two) traditionally with Copic markers and Zebra brush pens. It was refreshing to work traditionally after years of digital work!

Daniel (and Thomas and Jamie) will be stickers for those who back The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 2 on Crowdfundr. Yes, the campaign is STILL running! We have hit our main goal and now we’re working towards our stretch goals!

The Legend is on Crowdfundr UNTIL SEPT 1. Your window of time to back this campaign and pre-order volume 2 is closing, yo.

PRE-ORDER VOLUME 2

If you’re broke, share this post. Shares help more than you know.

That’s all for now. Thank you for your support!

From Sketch to Finished: The Cover for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2

Today, I want to show a piece of art from a sketch to the finished piece. This time, it’s the cover art for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 2. (It’s still on Crowdfundr, by the way! Get a pre-order of the book while you can.)

Here’s the initial sketch that I drew in 2015…

Here’s a redraw of the same sketch, drawn in 2020…

Here is final art I made for the cover art of Volume 2…

I can’t help it, I love this art.

In fact, I love it so much that I want to see how you color this. Here is a link to download the line art. If you color this, tag me on Instagram @kelcidcomics or Ko-fi @kelcidcrawford.

And don’t forget that The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 is still on Crowdfundr! Pre-order your copy and help us reach our goals.

That’s all for now. Thank you for scrolling!

New Art for DILFs (Demons I’d Love to F***)

For July, I have been making new art for DILFs, or Demons I’d Love to F***.

Why? It was kind of a dare from Junior Vigorito, aka vigoburrito on Instagram. We were tabling at GalaxyCon and we were talking about zines we could make. One of those zine ideas was “DILFs and Demons.” And I went, “Why Not Both?”

So I started drawing DILFs, but instead of Dads, it’s Demons.

The full zine will be available for my Fan Club members. But I can give you some teasers! Here are a few DILFs from the upcoming zine…

a demon man with thick muscles is dressed as a pirate and smiles as he gazes over the edge of the ship. His dark red hair flows in the breeze, as do the tails of his long, purple coat.
a blue-skinned demon smiles at the viewer while a teal orb floats above his hand. His horns are segmented and float above his head. His long black hair falls in one long wave down his back. He's dressed like a bard from Dungeons and Dragons.
A demon woman with dark blue skin wears a white veil that hides her eyes, but not her smile. Her long black hair cascades down her back, her golden horns floating above her head. She wears a flowing white dress with teal accents, as well as dark purple boots.

More DILFs will be posted soon. Some more are already up on Ko-Fi for one-time tippers AND regular members to see.

As mentioned before, all the DILFs I draw this month will be gathered into one zine, which will be available for Fan Club members to download. You can join on Ko-Fi or on the official Fan Clubs page.

I’m in the midst of shaking up my methods of sharing art on the regular with folks, so bear with me – feel free to share this post, too!

That’s all for now. Come back soon for more art!

Thanks for reading.

The Worst Books I Read in 2022

Today, I talk about the worst books I read in 2022. There are novels, comics, and nonfiction books, but they all have one thing in common – I REALLY did not like them. Watch to find out why. All while I draw a page for my webcomic, The Legend of Jamie Roberts.

On a lighter note, check out my chat with Columbus Cartoon Coalition, talking about my favorite comics in 2022.

To karmically balance everything, I’ll do a follow-up video talking about my favorite books from 2022. Soon…

This video was edited with Olive, an open-source video editor. I recorded the timelapse with OBS Studio, which is also an open-source program. Plus I recorded the audio with Audacity, which is (you guessed it) open-source. Check out my “Resources” page for more info.

Don’t forget that my Pin Club is now open for new members to join! You have until Feb 6 to sign up and get the February Club Pin.

And since it got mentioned in the video – Be Not Apurred is available in my shop. Get them before they’re gone forever.

That’s all for now. Thanks for watching and reading!
