A number of comments and messages asked for proof I drew this (which is really weird to me, coz who would wanna claim to draw this Garbo?) but to satiate those who don’t see my Kurumi Lover screen name in the watermark or the obvious “Jonathan Castleman) in cursive:
“Thanks for everything. It’s time to go to sleep forever. Please don’t forget about me, okay?”
Thought I’d visit the little logo girl I designed and drew for Funimation back in 2016 now that that the platform has sunset, destroying the last remnant of Funi.
@SuperiorArtemis
We cannot bury the skeletons in our closets--we must choose to accept them for what they are.
Also, my dumb ass doesn't delete art off my dA so WHOOPS lol
Happy 50th Anniversary, Cutie Honey!
Better late than never!
All of the surrounding Honeys are based off screen grabs or key art, while the transforming Honey is just her in my style.
Thanks for looking!

I think an anime Britney Spears would be rad, tbh.

2/3 for me. First one blew my mind and I had to rewatch it like 3 more times, 3rd one was truly disturbing and I could only stomach it once. Avoid everything MLP, so dunno the 2nd one, but worried.
So hype for the Project A-ko BD release from

Tried to emulate Yuji Moriyama’s art & used colours from scans of cels/settei sheets. Hope it looks legit.

[Contest Entry] An entry I drew of Heath—I mean, Princess Heart from Silent Hill 3. Still kinda pretend it’s the promo image for an upcoming Princess Heart anime series. (she’s actually charging a Sexy Beam)

@humorousrain
I've come to enjoy the cringe myself, and pick and choose random old art to redraw sometimes <:
Waited 20 years to redraw this pic I drew in 5th grade lmao
I couldn't stop thinking about Concept Art Princess Peach and I just had to draw a rendition.
I'd say it's a "quick one," but I'm literally a week late.

to return this summer! Here's one of the fan arts I've ever drawn for that series, even though I love it so much T A T
When They Cry inspired me to make friends again back in the day tbh.
This summer, the hit toy line becomes an anime series! “Young Beauty Flower Angel” begins July 2023 on TV Tokyo.
Just kidding. I’ve been obsessed with these bootleg Sailor Moon toys for years and have always wanted to draw them lol. Pretending this is key art. Hope ya like!
Hi
#PortfolioDay
I’m Jon & I draw retro anime-style art.
Currently in Commercial Commission Hell (with 11 ongoing commercial commissions atm) but I only have 2 in normal slots, so if you’re interested in either, please, don’t hesitate to reach out! 😄

Ling Xiaoyu has been my main in
#Tekken
since she first popped up. I’ve always wanted to draw her.
Special thanks to
@AngryangryD
for redlining my sketch and helping me with her pose 1000%.
And also special thanks to
@MarKellZC
for hosting the stream with Tekken that inspired me.
🎵Who’s that girl? What’s her name? Is she cool? Is she lame? Oh, you’re talkin’ ‘bout whatshername. Pepper Ann! 🎵

I adored this cartoon when I was a child. My fave show on Disney’s One Saturday Morning block on ABC. Hard to believe it only aired 1997-2000?

I wanted to touch on the Funimation logo girl I drew like 5 years ago and give her a full design. Debated on what to do with those socks, but I think it worked out.

! Got into anime in the mid 90s, and it inspired me to want to be an artist. I draw A LOT of fan art of my main two faves--Project A-ko and Cutey Honey--so I decided to share some fan art of other titles I truly love with all my being that changed my life.
Hello, here's the full-colour version of that Project A-ko pic I redrew 18 years after the fact.
Grab yourselves a Dr Bepper and hit the BEACH. (Jk, quarantine)
I think 13 year old me would have been really excited to see this, idk.
Yesterday was the 36th anniversary for Project A-ko, so shout out to the anime that got me hooked & made me want to become an artist or animator as a kid.
If you've never seen it, check it out on

I really love Bob’s Burgers and have been itching to an anime rendition of them like I did with anime Family Guy ever since I saw “Brunchsquatch” when we got a small taste of anime-style Bob’s Burgers characters (s8e1).
#BobsBurgers
I wanna do more of these and redraw some older art to show myself how far I've come. I've been beating myself up pretty bad about my art the last couple of years, but looking at these always cheers me up.
Time lapse of a redraw of an old Cutie Honey illustration I did that was inspired by the original Cutie Honey Japanese DVD box art. I switched her design from being the ‘70s version to being the ‘90s version because New Cutey Honey is my fave Honey adaptation.
It’s Valentine’s Day, but I saw that it was also SOMEONE’S bday, so I thought I’d whip ‘em up a quick drawing of their OC I’ve been dying to draw for awhile now.
Happy birthday,
@0tacat

Please enjoy this Natsu aaa
Happy Pokémon day! I redrew 2 illustrations I drew back in the day of my fave OG Pokegals recently, so here ya go! Incidentally, both voiced by the amazing Rachel Lillis!

playing Tekken the other day really made me want to get back into it, but also, really made me want to finish this rando sketch of Xiaoyu I was doodling last year lmao

this week, I present Seisei, my depressed lesbian OC from my comic Chalk*Dust in some kind of AU where she transfers to a new school and is happy. ❤️
Decided to just go ahead and turn that test A-ko pic from me messing around in Clip Studio Paint into an actual illustration. She's back, baby! Last release for the first movie was on my 22nd birthday in 2011, so let's GOOOOOO!!! Thank you for the news,
@discotekmedia
I'm so hype
Project A-ko was the one that opened the world of anime to me, and I never stopped loving it or anime, wanting to work in anime or make anime.
Currently a subtitler at Funimation and a freelance anime artist. My art's even been used by Funimation on the motion logo since 2016
Spooky season is coming up. Gotta get those candies, but safely. Eleven year old Jon didn’t think about if Japan celebrated Halloween or not, tbh, just wanted to draw Cutey Honey wearing A-ko’s uniform.
