Making friends at Rhode Island Comic Con :)
I’ve been working on an upgraded version of Spider-Punk’s pants, and I’m so happy that I got to debut them at Rhode Island Comic Con this last weekend!
Shoutout to @hobiesdump for helping me figure out what some of the patch designs were! Couldn’t have done it without ya :)
Us punks gotta stick together, yeah?
I’m so obsessed with the paint splatters on my fellow Spider-Punk that I met at Rhode Island Comic Con 🎨
Alright folks, gather around and I’ll tell you why we need to overthrow the government!
I love this guitar so much, y’all have no idea 😄
That newsprint pattern is a collection of news clippings from American protest history, mostly from the ~1960s to the present day. I really enjoyed putting it all together, it’s like I was making an artistic tribute to the movement. There’s shoutouts to the Freedom Riders, the 2020 Black Lives Matter uprisings, the Gaza solidarity encampments earlier this year, the Weather Underground, and so much more. My personal favorite is the headline from the Stonewall riots along the bottom side of the guitar: “GAYS HIT NY COPS” 🫡🏳️🌈
Some of the guitar parts actually work, too! You could flip that switch and spin those tuners. It’s really fun to fidget with when I’m waiting in long lines at cons.
The “stickers” are all accurate to Hobie’s official character art btw!
More pics under the cut~
