Razzek Does The Art

I’m Razz, a digital cartoonist specializing in character design and illustration. Being mostly blind, I emphasize bold lines intended to make characters stand out and give them life with dynamic poses and details. Cartoons taught me how to see and I love sharing that unique perspective.

Specialty: inks/line art

Tools: iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, ProCreate

Education: self taught, originally worked with traditional media, switched to mostly digital after further sight loss in 2019

Experience: 20 years in freelance illustration, participant in multiple charity projects which have raised thousands of dollars for various charities, work has been featured in some printed projects (most recently Gorgeworld)

It's Trans Day of Visibility aka TDOV so, uh. Hi! Here I am! :D Surprise for those who didn't know? XD I've never made a secret of it but also not publicly really announced it. If you look on any art of Razzrat you'll see they're always listed as trans or nonbinary, because they're me. :) I've been out of the closet for about 15 years now. Here's some art of me and a few trans guys of mine (I have some gals too I just don't have any art of them finished yet ;_; ).

We are here, we will ALWAYS be here. No oppression has ever or will ever stop us. We have outlived every empire that tried to crush us. <3 always to my brothers, sisters, and siblings!

(Don't be a butthole in the replies. You will be perma-blocked. I am too old for that kind of trash and y'all are better than that anyway. Be cool, don't be a weird little freak obsessed with strangers' genitals, that's gross.)

I can finally post this! 8D I think I started working on it in, like...July? But now the zine is out and it is full of art by so many incredible people! I didn't get to hang out in the Discord with everyone as much as I would have liked, but I am so honored to have gotten to work with all of these wonderfully talented people! You can see more of the art and join an auction for the last physical copies of the zine (which are amazing btw) below:

ID: Riding through the scorching Wastelands on a leaper, Seem smiles serenely at a triumphant Ottsel Tess. She's just fired a blast of yellow eco! On Seem's shoulder, Daxter cheers his girlfriend. Behind them all, Ottsel Veger rubs his sore tail, wisps of yellow eco smoke wafting from his backside.

Very quick ink over a screenshot from Ratshaker XD

Btw, I am still slowly working on commissions and I appreciate y’all’s patience! Currently getting brain meds back, which allow me to draw these days, but they’re new cuz insurance sucks so I am enduring An Adjustment after six years of stability on the old ones. 8D If you want to know the current state of your comm, feel free to get in touch! 

ID: Bug-eyed and non-plussed, a yellow and green cartoon rat with tatty ears is being squeezed in a realistically shaded human hand.

Me: I’ll post this tomorrow!

(Proceeds to invert sleep schedule and be too tired to do anything for two days) 8D

Anyway, here’s the real Bigna for fellow Midna fan MeisterLi! :)

IS: On a bright sunny day in Hyrule field, imp Midna absolutely dominates the landscape. She hovers casually in the air, one finger cracking the Twilight shield over the castle she dwarfs in size. Miles away, wolf Link flails in the tide of her hair which traps him.

It’s too warm for the winter icon, so I made a new one. Not quite what I want but good enough for now. 

ID: Against an afternoon mountain backdrop, a bright green rat wearing a tie dye bucket hat peeks in from the bottom right corner, grinning. 

This came out more sfw than I thought so… XD Sasha striking a pose. 

ID: With her back to us but looking over one shoulder, a green eyed rat struts with one arm out wide, accentuating her figure. She has black heart patterns on her shoulders and bum. Her pose accentuates her rear, long pink tail weaving between and around her thicc thighs and calves. In the distance a purple moon rises over a golden city. 

Just a quick thing inspired by the upcoming Rain World dlc. 

ID: Luminous bright eyes and a tiny nose peer out of gray and black foliage. Faint outlines in the darkness hibt at the shape of a cat-like head and wide ears. 

Salt Lake 1987

He used to be famous. 

ID: Teeth bared, a calico cat man screams into a microphone. His green eyes are wild and bulging, orange and gray hair fanning around him in a giant mane. 

One of the happiest times in Blaque’s life. Nothing tying him down, just enough money left to get work done, going back to his roots with some thrifting. A friend embroidered the hat and a different friend let him have an old bong. :D

ID: Grinning lopsidedly, calico cat man Blaque shows off his gold left incisor. His orange and gray hair is frazzled and starting to form dreads at the bottom. Green eyes are blown wide as he exhales plumes of smoke from his nostrils to match the smoke pouring from a blue glass bong held in mitten covered hands. He wears a hat with a puffball on top and a pot lesf embroidered on the brim. A puffy army surplus coat keeps him warm in the chilly mountains, a neon striped scarf tucked in the collar. 

Blaque Katt. Shhh, he’s thinking about that bandmate who died in front of him ten years ago, leave him alone.

Many thanks to friend Rye for suggesting calico dreads! <3 Can you guess what that means? :D

ID: Glaring distractedly at you, a mostly white calico cat man holds the still lit lighter for the cigarette in his frowning mouth. His bare shoulder shows a red universal “no” sign tattoo and he has a mix of pewter and gold piercings in one laid back ear. His right brow has two piercings over baggy green eyes. His dreads hang limply in orange and gray shades, matching his orange beard and brows.

Bandit King Hisanen polishing his sword. :D For @cyberphuck

ID: Leaning casually against a tree, a muscular dark haired man polishes the long sword resting across his lap. His hair is pulled back in a long tail, wearing nothing but his boots and a tasteful loincloth.

I love @simplysnaps videos. Check her out here:

ID: Leaping through the air with the Master Sword in one hand and Hylian shield in the other, it’s SimplySnaps! She’s a green eyed elf gal with orange shading to pink hair, wearing a pink tunic and long hat. She has a trans flag sticker on one cheek and a lesbian rainbow sticker on the other. 

Gateshead won a big championship last year and my friend was Very patient while I traced the stadium background. XD

ID: Holding a beribboned trophy over his head, the Gateshead goat mascot cheers in the football stadium where his team won. A white arch arcs over the stadium seats.

Finally not sick or in pain enough to draw, yay! Quick Saint from Rain World. 

ID: Sitting in the snow, a very fluffy green cat creature with a fluffy tail catches snowflakes on his very long tongue.
