Hey all! I recently drew some chembros fanart and asked Csar if I could post it here to which he said to make a new fanart thread so I did!

The brothers even reposted my drawing on their page  :o

That looks awesome! Loving the Surrender vibe you went for!

So, please, all you creative minds, show us what you've got up your sleeves and share it here. Stefan, Enjoyed (your Robo mugs come to mind) and all the others!

The Surrender Art really is my favourite art of all time. I have some of it framed in my house (from the Surrender Box set). You have done such an amazing piece of work here, I absolutely love it! So nice to see they reposted it on their page! Congrats 😁

Same here! I have a Surrender promo poster in perfect condition framed hanging right above my record player, it's my holy grail! I just ordered my drawing on a poster too, I can't wait to get it and hang it next to my desk :)

On that note, gosh I'd love to gift the chems a copy too 🥺

I'm thinking about putting it online for sale! Though I don't know yet if I should do it via a print on demand platform or sell them myself. What would you prefer?
Oo-ee, bit wobbly on the old feet!

I guess the more money that goes to you the better. But I totally understand the risk of having something made yourself when you don't necessarily know the demand.
How do those print-on-demand places work? Is it like Society6 / Printify?

I usually use Redbubble, but I am thinking of expanding to other sites too. They are pretty reliable and produce posters and more on demand, in multiple countries so the shipping is appropriate too. My only problem with those are that, from a poster that costs 15€, I only get 3 if I am lucky. I am thinking of running extremely limited editions of posters, like 5 of each motif, and hand signing them all. That way both me and the people who appreciate my art get something out of it!

I did this No Reason illustration on the weekend, thought I'd share it here as well  :)

Had to look twice to believe it's not official!

Thank you! I spent a lot of time trying to nail the shading and get it as accurately as possible, I'm glad it paid off !!

Yeah, that's what I figured, especially the shadows of the folds of the pants and jackets. Great work!
