Some still light the old pyre
Went absolutely insane for my drawing final and drew life size to scale Frank Begbie. I’ve never felt so free in my life. I wanted to do a bit more with this but then I got sick RIP, it’s alright tho. Had a fun time working on this.

@irvinewelsh.bsky.social ya bastard!
I also have to say I was very happy to see dyslexia representation in the book, as an artist who’s always struggled with dyslexia and would get made fun of for it I felt very seen. I have always had a really hard time reading books but Irvine Welsh’s novels have made me a much better reader.
Just finished reading The Blade Artist by @irvinewelsh.bsky.social and I genuinely think it’s my favorite book of all time. I am hoping to make more artwork based on it soon, I have ideas and I’m hoping I can execute them. Heres a frank doodle in the meantime.
The fact that this novel was written in a dyslexia friendly way made me very happy. And a wonderful story on top of it! Frank is definitely my favorite character of all time, and I’m excited to see the TV adaptation that’s in the works. Can’t get enough of the blade artist.
Gerry draw something other than Trainspotting challenge: impossible, because I love drawing Trainspotting too much I love to draw Simon and Mark it makes me feel free. Freedom from my classes means I get to focus on my passions lol

This pride month, I decided to be a bit bold and draw something I’ve been thinking about for a while. It might be a little odd, but in my mind it made sense.
Leather Frank makes sense based on aesthetics, but also could symbolize freedom.

When in doubt, draw Frank. Character belongs to @irvinewelsh.bsky.social
I will draw Frank in every medium I swear, he’s so fun. Blade artist is my favorite book right now and I think about it all the time. It’s so inspiring.

I have been dying to make a Begbie plushie for so long and I finally did it. He’s not perfect but I love him he’s so funny looking. I’m happy I finally had the time to do it.
