I've been wanting to draw these guys forever now, enter the florpus was just yes! i’ve been waiting for it for what seemed like forever! but i can’t seem to draw these guys unless its on paper! :/
i can’t wait to get that art tablet i’m saving up for so i don’t have to put up with a mouse & hard to draw characters! :D

i love them so much im actually really happy to see them all together AAAAA I LOVE THEEEMMM. sorry for grouping manny and jimmys refs in with this big post i just didn't know where else to put them and i wasn't going to draw any more. i was going to wait to post these when im done with watching all of each show. but thats annoying and lame. still got 10 more eps of mlaatr, 16 eps of el tigre, just finished dp first season, and only watched a few eps of jn... sorry..... (i will continue to act this way cause RAHHH you do not need to be a historian of the shows to hyperfixate on these characters fuck you)
Sum art of Zim- if it isn't obvious i rly like dramatic lighting
also bonus :p (Dib is very much annoyed)
oh my god they are so skrunkly together
Morty should get to bully his friends a little. as a treat
it's his divine right as the oldest kid in the group
someone on here wanted a dib and nene swap and even though the post was from a while ago i thought it would've been a cute idea to draw
naturally when i drew them out my brain started coming up with ideas on how the stories would change, so more info about that under the cut
dib's family had moved to japan thanks to membrane's scientific research leading them to the country.
it didn't take long for dib to learn about the school wonders, more specifically about hanako. determined to truly prove the existence of the paranormal, dib summons hanako. dib got a little than be bargained for as hanako himself proved to be quite the trickster.
during the multiple failed attempts to get his school mates to notice hanako, dib accidentally swallowed a mermaid scale. although hanako helped dib keep the mermaid's curse to a minimum in exchange into becoming his assistant, dib does keep trying to expose hanako as well as other super naturals to the world.
nene was always known as the weird girl with the radish legs in her class. her fondness with that not of earth only motivated the weirdness people saw in her.
on the day zim arrived, he was taken aback by how excited nene was in meeting him. he was prepared for the humans to ignore his existence, yet there was nene actively wanting to learn more about her new classmate.
zim mistook this enthusiasm as a sign that nene was willing in helping his world domination plan. this mistake caused zim to drag nene around in his multiple attempts to destroy earth. nene, quick to understand her situation but unwilling to fully antagonize zim, secretly thwarts his plans while remaining his friend.
He Dib-shit, what you have got the-
Shut the fuck up ufo! I'm gonna blow you up in pieces!
Would it be interesting if Zim would also plot his plan for revenge on the tallest similar what Spinel did, but also become friends with Dib along the way since he is also an outcast from society?
I had no idea what I was doing with this au, but it’s somewhat starting to come together...
However, after I saw the Steven Universe: The Movie, it gave me more ideas. Hopefully, i might have the time to sketch it out!
This man does not love his son and you cannot change my mind.
If asked his response is just "emotions aren't scientific"
All things considered Dib's Dilemma is objectively pretty low down on the scale of ways in which Dib has been psychologically tormented over the course of canon, but I'm not sure if anything has ever made me feel so genuinely distressed about it, because the entire thing is Dib practicing genuine empathy from a place of personal experience towards someone who never has and never will do the same for him.
Something both Dib and Membrane seem to have in common is an almost pathological need to maintain their version of the Truth™ no matter the personal consequence—they cannot make concessions or compromise their views even for their own direct benefit. Only that's exactly what Dib does here, and it is genuinely just so maddeningly backwards to watch this kid go to bat for a father who has never once validated him or protected him from ridicule, specifically because he knows how unbearable it is to be constantly disrespected and disbelieved. He proves Professor Membrane right at his own expense, because it's the thing he wants most in the world and he loves his father too much to withhold it the way it's been withheld from him.
And what REALLY fucks with me is that Membrane understands exactly how significant this is (perhaps because it is exactly the thing that he's never been able to bring himself to do). He understands the sacrifice being made and still he will not do the same. I literally cannot overstate how much I hate it when this man is self-aware.
Making a dib wallpaper cuz pinterest can't cook for shit
I drew an older dib in class. No consistent design or anything just something I made cause I was bored
Keep in mind I didn't have an eraser so there are some mistakes and stuff,.,.,.,. Tried to do a kind of jhonen ish art style because i have no consistency really and i like how he turned out, might make a few changes if i ever decide to make him digital
A GHOST!

DON'T repost.
The drawing looks unexpectedly good and I like it. I like to use grey colours as well as keeping many of my drawings clean and simple.

Character design stuff. 😳😬😬
DON'T REPOST.
I like drawing children with lovely teeth. 😂
😳Zib is too small here and dealing with some really thin lines would take me too much time, so I just coloured some parts of him instead of using lines only.

The little moth. 😂😂😂
DON'T REPOST. 😒
It's interesting to design poses and lines (I redrew and redrew and it was tiring). I like my lineart anyway. 😆
Oh and I finally read the comic. I still like this character, though I know that he is pretty horrible.
I might create short comics later? Seriously, I want to see happy children playing around, and perhaps Zib can get some love or something (that means I will have to translate my writing… 😳🤔).

I tried to paint characters from Invader Zim. Don't repost my art.
I didn't look at references when I painted them. I wanted to paint Gaz, but I forgot her design. 😂 And I just realized that I didn't paint the freaking crack in Zib's glasses! 😳🙄🙄🙄😂 (I didn't actually read the issues where Zib appears)
Honestly I probably still don't know how to use brushes to paint because I lack practice.

So I was reading through some of my old unfinished fanfic stuffs and google docs- And I found this gem that I apparently finished. It was made back when I was REALLY REALLY INVESTED in the Invader Zim fandom and I had just finished binge reading the official comics. I’m not sure if it’s all in character but I figured I’d post it anyways because if I don’t some of this stuff would never see the light of day again lol. So enjoy if you can- Lol.
D-> Dib
G-> Gaz
M-> Membrane
Z-> Zim
In which Dib is spiteful to prove a point:
*We pan to the membrane household living room, where Gaz and Dib both seem to occupy at the moment. Dib is sitting lax on the couch while Gaz stands over to the side clearly fuming.*
G: “So you're just… Letting Zim take over the world?... JUST to prove a point?”
D: “... Mmm. Yerp. Sounds about right.”
G: “Oh. Um. Ok, whatever. The world is in chaos so I assumed you would be… Out there. Fighting Zim. And stuff.”
D: “Well not today. You said that Zim plans will always just backfire on themselves anyways and my efforts don't actually prevent anything. So, I figured, let's test that theory.”
G: “... Uh huh... Whatever. Just don't stink up the place with your sweaty anxiousness to save the world.”
D: “Oh I'm not worried. Once you admit that Zim is a real threat to humanity, then I'll go save the world.”
*Outside, a giant flaming meteor could be seen plummeting to earth accommodated by screams- Buildings on fire, and Zim leading an army of giant robots smashing anything. Gaz looks and sits on the couch next to dib.*
G: “Ok then…”
D: “Let's put on something to watch, yeah? You can pick, for old times sake.”
*Gaz flicks through the channels, but all of them are nationwide emergencies- Ranging from China to Egypt, to England, to places all around the world- All in a panic and the world on fire. Dib continues to sip juice.”
D: “Huh. Would you look at that, it's gonna rain tomorrow. Maybe that'll put a damper on all these TEMPORARY fires happening all over the place…”
G: “I know what you're doing Dib but it's not going to work. I bet you're ITCHING to go out there and beat that alien guy to kingdom come. But I'm not changing my mind. A little measly fire never hurt anyone…”
D: “Whatever you say Gaz. I’m actually pretty content here. Yep. Not gonna be moving for a loooong time…”
G: “...”
D: “...”
*Screams continue in the background. Gaz walks away for a few seconds before coming back with a soda. She splashes it on her brother.*
D: “HEY! Why would you do that!? Now I'm all sticky… You got it all over the couch…”
G: “Just checking if you were a robot. So. You really aren't going to do ANYTHING about Zim’s invasion?”
D: “Nope.”
G: “People are dying out there.”
D: “Not my problem. It'll all die down anyways and be forgotten, just like you said.”
G: “This is a new level of petty, even for you.”
D: “I'm not being petty. I'm proving a point. Now, unless you plan on admitting your wrong, move on with the subject- It's not a big deal.”
*Suddenly, Membrane burst through the door, decked out in a gas mask and holding two mini hazmat suits in their size. He slams the door shut, initiating lockdown protocol.*
M: “CHILDREN! THERE APPEARS TO BE A BIG DEAL GOING ON!!! It would seem that the government has FINALLY fallen to Terrorists of the outer space kind! They are here to enslave us to do their bidding- But do not worry. As long as we stay here, we SHOULD be safe from their MIND CONTROLLING radiation waves.”
G: “Don't you not believe in aliens and stuff Dad? Dib, you're seeing this right?”
M: “Ah Gazlene, my poor poor impressionable daughter- It would seem that your brother's insane ramblings have gone to your head. Of COURSE they don't exist! NOT SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE! No no no, Space terrorists are a different concept entirely.”
G: “Dib. Aren't you going to say something?”
D: “What for? There isn't an alien threat going on AT ALL, remember Gaz? Space Terrorists are different.”
M: “Good to know you are coming to your senses, Son. Maybe soon you can return to the labs alongside your father?”
D: “Not a chance dad.”
M: “I predicted as much.”
G: “Ok. NO. This is all WRONG.”
D: “I don't think so. This is all gonna blow over soon anyways- No intervention needed.”
M: “Rational thinking my dear son, perhaps you can be the first to take your portion of beans…”
*Suddenly, a giant laser beam cuts a giant hole in the ceiling, and a load of robot minions in black suits on ropes swung down. Holding guns up to their heads, the robots gesture to a cage landing from the sky next to them, attached to a chain.
R1: “Get in the cage or perish at the might of our lord and master INVADER ZIM! Failure to comply will result in immediate spontaneous combustion!”
R2: “What he said! All electronics have been deactivated!(*Membranes raised robot arms fall limp at his sides*) Surrender in peace or in PIECES!”
D: “Huh. Well this is weird. Reminds me of the good old days of saving the world from a nonexistent threat… Oh well. It's not like it matters, It'll all work itself out in the end… Unless it doesn't…”
M: “The good have fallen, whatever will become of us all…”
G: “Dib! This isn't FUNNY anymore! Stop being a spiteful bump on a log and do something like you usually do!”
D: “What is there to do? Zim isn't a threat to anybody, so I shouldn't bother trying to stop him! Unless you admit otherwise, I'm going to assume it'll all blow over soon. Just. Like. You. Said.”
*The three of them end up going into the cage, which is now lifted up by a giant robot drone, heading towards a giant alien tower in the distance. Many cages could be seen heading that way- With pigs, humans, and bicycles. They soon reach the top floor, a throne room. They are brought to the front to be inspected by Zim, who was decked out in royal gear.*
Z: “Hello filthy humans! What a surprise- No effort from the Dib human this time it seems? Have you finally come to terms with how INFERIOR you are and surrendered your planet to ME?”
D: “Sure. Whatever. How about it Gaz, let's humor the idea! It's not like he can ACTUALLY win…”
M: “Hmmm… That green space terrorist looks oddly familiar…”
Z: “Good good! Excellent! Just had to clear that up before I- You know- ENSLAVE YOU!”
G: “Dib. Do something!”
D: “It'll be fine Gaz- He's going to screw up eventually! I already told you, I'm not going to do anything! Unless of course…”
G: “No. I refuse to even THINK about it! This is all just dumb luck- I will admit to n o t h i n g!”
D: “Ok. Your choice.”
Z: “Away with you now- your human stink is making my throne room reek- Try to enjoy the last few moments of your home planet that you can- BEFORE I SEND ALL HUMANS INTO SPACE INSIDE A GIANT GIFT BASKET FOR THE TALLEST! So uh, yeah, away with you…”
D: “Haha, imagine if that works- Too bad nobody would have been there to protect the planet!”
G: “Your. So. DEDICATED. To this bit AREN'T YOU…”
D: “Very.”
*The cage they are in is now seen being flown over to, you guessed it, a giant spaceship shaped like a wicker gift basket, hundreds upon millions of people in cages stacked inside. A large crane drone thingie could also be seen precariously placing a bow on it. Even so, Dib continued to seem indifferent, Sharing some tea with his dad and Gaz’s eyes were wide with anger and terror. Then she faces the two of them.*
G: “Arrrghhh… FINE DIB! I admit it- Your KINDA important when it comes to saving the world from Zim and junk! And I GUESS Zim can SOMETIMES be a threat to Earth for real. I admit it- Are you happy? Are you HAPPY now? Huh? HUH? Now so help me- If you do not get us out of here and fix all this Zim dookie- I WILL DESTROY YOU PERSONALLY MYSELF!…”
D: “Oh… Well, alrighty then, if you really insist Gaz…! Now that that's decided- I should probably go do my job now.”
G: “Erg, I wouldn't say JOB…”
M: “Son? Son! SON!? What are you doing!?”
*Dib, already managing to unlock the cage with ease, pulled a cord on his coat sleeve and kinda turned it into a sort of wingsuit. He turned his head to face the two family members dramatically*
D: “I'm doing what I always do… Saving the world from that ALIEN MENACE!”
M: “NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”
*Later… Dib could be seen dusting off his hands with a grin on his face and soot smeared all over his face. His trench coat could be seen still smoldering as the clouds seemed to dissipate in under a few seconds, revealing the usual red sunny sky as if nothing bad happened. His surroundings were a wreck and behind him, Zims castle base thing could be seen collapsing into a pile of rubble.*
D: “Haha, a job well done! Point one for the human race… Point nothing to Zim! All is right once again…”
G: “Whatever…”
M: “To think- I had FINALLY been getting through to him… But alas, his insanity has returned…”
Z: *Pops out of nowhere from the rubble near dib* "HahahaHAHA! Victory for ZIM! That'll show the GAZ BEAST TO UNDERESTIMATE THE THREAT THAT IS ME!!!"
D: "Zi- Wait, stop, stop, shut up, shut up, she can still hear you idiot-"
G: "What are you guys on about now… Wait… You… Him…"
Z: "Oh yes! What a FANTASTIC PLAN IT WAS TOO! Of course, the part where I- The great and mighty Zim loses could use some weakling might need some work- But-"
G: *At this point, Gaz is fuming- Teeth clenching causing sparks to fly- All while Dib attempted to shut the ignorant alien up- But unfortunately everything seemed to be falling into place. Slowly, Gaz turns to Dib- Stiffly pointing at the two boys in front of her. "You two… All this… TO TRICK ME into thinking you guys were VALID in some way-"
D: "Gaz- I can explain-"
Z:"Yes that is exactly what happened- Because it's true! Zim is something to be FEARED-"
G: "I don't want to hear it. I'm giving you both 5 seconds to run."
D: "Wait- WAIT-"
Z: "NOPE!" *Shoves Dib out of the way and breaks into a run- Dib looks up only to find his little sister- Her gaze is cold enough to cause the next ice age. Dib screwed up.*
Later that night….
M: "Hmmm… I wonder where my dear children have run off to… Hopefully it has nothing to do with all that craziness about aliens and bigfeets…"
*Enter Gaz, smudged with dirt and grass, while dragging a large shovel behind her.*
M: “My my Gazleen, you're looking awfully dirty- Have you been roughhousing again?”
G: “Gardening. Getting rid of some WEEDS.”
M: “That’s wonderful! I’m glad you’re branching out and thinking of the planet!”
Imagine this- Invader Zim, except Zim is genuinely just a senial old man and Dib is just a delusional kid.
Dib, who is just SO CONVINCED that there’s no way this old guy is human. And he comes to visit the retirement home all the time just to “foil Zim’s evil plans” when in reality all Dib is doing is stopping the old man from like- Escaping or causing old people havoc. Dib is lowkey still neglected in this universe, but like his dad isn’t some crazy famous scientist. I think he just works a really good position for like- Microsoft or something- So a little less weird than canon yk? As for Dibs weird alien claims on Zim- The old man lowkey just lets it progress just to fuck around with the kid.
And Zim? Well personality wise he basically the same. He might be like- An old war veteran who’s in denial about his so-called “Feats” in the army- And thinks his pals still wanna hang out with him when in reality their all either dead or total assholes to him. So he’s not THAT different- So Dib and Zim still have that kind of banter, And it’s the same sort of cat and mouse bond that they share in canon, although a whole lot more wholesome in some aspects.
There’s also Gir, who is Zims grandnephew who he basically treats like a little slave but it’s kinda adorable. And the nurses of the home find it sweet that the 12 year old Dib takes time out of his day to visit the old kook- who basically lost almost all his family a long time ago. (Also, the distraction is quite a spectacle) there would be other characters introduced- But the main basis is that mostly Irkens are now just old people in the home- Like Skoodge, Tak, Red and Purple etc. stuff like that. I just thought this would be silly tbh. Bro really has beef with an old man, what a loser lol-
Best part is, you can’t ship them in this AU unless you wanna make it creepy- And why would you? lol might be controversial but here I am.
Tidbit:
Gaz: Maybe the reason nobody wants to talk to you is because your only friend is an old guy who smells like sweaty beans and bleach.
Dib: He is NOT my friend! He is my SWORN ENEMY!
Gaz: That’s even worse.
Some crappy doodles to accompany this goofiness, pardon my handwriting it is in fact hot garbage-
Was doomscrolling on tumblr and was reminded of this crossover- Then I realized I forgot to post one of my old animations and so here you go-
Invader Falls my beloved- Lowkey this animation was kinda cringe lol
The glooberiest goobers
posting all the stuff i've drawn for dibper discord in honour of that Alex Hirsh doodle
Remember this trend? Seems like forever ago… This was for a crossover AU I had starring anti-Mable, theraprism escapee Bill, and Zib from the invader zim comics. (Among also Steven universe but he’s not in this video-) Fun crossovers lol. I love it when villains get their found family’s and stay villains mwhahaha
Вау, сильный вайб ДСТ от этого арта!
