Fordtastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

For @forduary week 2- College and Researcher years.

“You don’t need to prove anything. We were always good enough, just by being ourselves.”

Some fluff to make up for yesterday.

Hope you like it! :)

I thought Ford could do with giving his younger self a hug.

Forduary 2024 Week 4: Return to Gravity Falls and beyond

I always headcanon that Fords favorite food besides jellybeans are burgers. So here we have him and the family enjoying some fast-food post-weirdmageddon.

Those nutrient-pills are nothing compare to a good greasy-burger

Here is my drawing for week two of @forduary: Researcher Years. Continuing the bird theme from my last entry, I decided to portray my favorite bird from Journal 3: the Cowl! And while I think it’s one of the most adorable critters in the book, Ford’s written entry on it is deeply unsettling the more I think about it. So here I drew Ford mentally coming to terms with the fact that this thing has udders and lays milk-filled eggs. How does it reproduce? I don’t really like thinking about it! (But I assume it births live young and lays the eggs from its… udders? Eugh.) Credit for Ford’s handwriting goes to @tsunamiholmes and their incredible downloadable font! I originally planned to just scan and paste that section of the journal, but the phrase is awkwardly written across two separate lines. So the font was a lifesaver!

late week one @forduary post :)

I think he would’ve liked The Addams Family

Stinkies don’t want a bath

Late for both Stanuary and Week 1 of Forduary but here it is anyway: Show and Tell

I’ve been itching to redraw this Lost Legends panel, and I finally got around to it! I’m really happy with how it turned out too, and of course I always love Ford being a good brother 🥹💕

(I guess this works for Stanuary and Forduary lol ✨)

OH NO, I'M NEVER GONNA SPEAK AGAIN

something i made for @forduary this one is for week 2: researcher days and i figured since i haven't been making as much horror art as i'd like i'd make this based around his breakdown after learning the truth about bill!

It’s almost that time of year again!

But we could use another mod this year to handle reblogs of everyone’s creations. If anyone is interested in helping out, please send an ask our way!

Also, this seems like a good time to do a general interest check so if you’d like to see this event happen this year, please reblog with your response in the tags!

Ford @forduary week 3 (portal Ford let’s goooo) I really wanted to do a piece of Ford earning his wanted poster. So here we go- Ford stealing parts from a space ship for the quantum destabilizer.

[Image description: digital art of Ford from Gravity Falls in his portal era, with a black hood pulled over his head and a small flashlight held between his teeth. He's pulling wires out of a panel on the side of a saucer-style UFO, looking nervously over his shoulder. He seems to be in some kind of alien hangar, with a red light emanating from above the door. End description.]

“I’ve got my eye on you, Sixer.”

A little bit of menacing Bill and troubled Ford for Forduary! :)))

Edited the pencil drawing to fix some features, add detail and highlights, and push the contrast a little.

The unedited version! :))

Forduary 2024 Week 3: Portal Years

Here we have Ford on a alien world possibly reminiscing about another beach from a long time ago

Here's @forduary week 3: Portal Years! It's no longer February, but I'm so grateful for that March 11 end date. It's going to be close, but I'm determined to work my butt off to finish Week 4 as well!

Whenever I think about alien birds, the first thing that comes to mind is the Snagret from Pikmin. So when I was trying to come up with an inter-dimensional bird for Ford to encounter, I couldn't help taking some inspiration from the Snagret's design! In the end I wound up creating a bird with a much smaller beak, however.

Ford is in his early 40's here. I based him off of his portal era design in Journal 3, where his features are just starting to shift towards old age. (I also accidentally gave him Indiana Jones' color scheme, whoops!)

BELATED WEEK 3!! Portal Ford as the Doctor’s companion

they’re my Stanchez <3
