I apologise for a possible lack of coherency on this post, it’s 1AM in the UK but I felt like this was an issue that people needed to be made aware of
There is an Instagram account called billy._hargrove_ and they are stealing peoples art. @adelacreations has helped me with identifying a few of the artists who I will be doing my best to get in contact with to make aware of this situation but I also felt that making a post would also help bring attention to this issue.
I don’t know if this person has a tumblr but if you’re a Billy/harringrove/harringroveson artist who has an Instagram account I strongly recommend blocking them on there if Instagram is also somewhere where you post your art.
If fandom folks could reblog this post so as many people in this fandom are made aware of this issue as possible, that would be fantastic.
Sorry for a lack of detail, I just really wanted to get this out there.
I can show my love now (and no can stop me)
We be boopin'
I love this show. #vegetales #bobthecucumber #larythetomato

Let’s all celebrate the beauty of Harringrove and the fandom creators together. Join us on December 22, 2023, to spectate the 24 Hour Harringrove Relay Race!
Keep reading for more details and the significance of this artwork.
: ̗̀➛ The meaning behind the artwork:
A winter flower, the camellia is prized for its exquisitely shaped petals and evergreen foliage. Deep red camellias can symbolize passion, love, romance, and desire and convey “my heart bleeds for you” Blue roses are rare, and a popular gift among lovers, who often give them to express their feelings for one another. Dark shades of blue roses mean mystery and a dream come true. They represent the attainment of the impossible.
These flowers are a display of love ♡

: ̗̀➛ What is the Harringrove Relay Race?
A relay race is an event where every hour (or more, or less, depending on the number of participants), a creator reveals their work at an assigned time, and then "passes the baton" by introducing the next creator in line to reveal their work.
This particular event will last for 24 hours nonstop until all the works have been revealed.
After the relay race, the artists and authors will receive a PDF memory book of all the works contributed to the race, as a thank-you for taking part.
: ̗̀➛ Where will it take place?
December 22nd, 2023 on Tumblr. All works will be shared under the #harringrove relay race tag.
Artists and authors are free to reveal their works on other platforms as long as it is at their assigned time.
: ̗̀➛ When will the timetable and participants be revealed?
The timetable and list of participants will be revealed on December 1st, to give participants time to schedule their work or be available at their reveal time.
: ̗̀➛ Can I participate?
Participants in the race have been personally invited, but you can support the creators by reblogging, liking, and leaving positive feedback.
Hopefully, there will be another relay race and you are welcome to send a message if you’re interested in participating next time!
There is no specific criteria or application process. we just reached out to as many people as we could think of, in the hopes that this would be successful ♡
If you have not filled out the form sent with your invitation, we will not be able to add you to the timeline. So please do so as soon as possible!

Eddie’s tattoos~ the artists did an awesome job with these! I really appreciate small details like these; most aren’t ever fully visible in show, but they add a lot of character depth. Originals were posted on Amy L Forsythe’s instagram account, I just sketched the little placement maps.
The rings on his left were easy to find via Google. Those models have been made and sold for a long time and this style is still popular in metal and biker aesthetics. The ring on his right hand is more obscure; I was able to find a handful of lookalikes, but not with the same stone, or more inlaid stone work…? If anyone else digs deeper and finds out more about it, leave me info and I’ll edit the post 🙂 But as it is, simple observance and good close up shots make great refs.
The button style pins on the jacket are easy to find, plenty of independent artists remake these on Etsy if you can’t find officially licensed ones. W.A.S.P. ‘s metal pin may only be available/easier to find through officially licensed sellers, just ‘cause ya know, metal pins are a little harder to make than button pins. But! All bands are still currently active, so that also makes things easier for those looking to actually buy 🙂
These pages may seem a little redundant, but I wanted to include actual shots for placement notes and good clear individual shots of the patches for drawing reference ; a lot of the scenes are dark, people are moving around, etc. and a few of the patches are on the sides of the jacket, they’re not fully visible a majority of the time anyway. Most of these can be found pretty quickly and easily on the internet, like the pins. Even the Dio shirt should still be easy enough to obtain for a cosplayer, although a special vintage shirt was donated to the team for wardrobe. Iron Maiden and Megadeth are still active, Dio and Motörhead are not, though.
So, here we have a nice little collective post! Hope this helps some other artists/cosplayers/fans and saves you some time digging on your own. This was a lot of fun to do!
