With the start of a new year I’m also taking new steps. Decided to not make art be a career goal anymore, gave up on that prospect and I’m probably not cut out for it. That being said, I’m hoping the roads ahead can afford me better time to let me enjoy art as a hobby at least. We’ll see.

The after 9PM inner voices are making good points. I might heed their advice.

Had a funny idea of scattering individual OC-related material in different social media sites like lost artifacts.

Sketching some Yuntars.

I love my leopard geckos, but I feel jealous sometimes when I see how active and seemingly smarter tamed tokay gecko are.

I've been blasting this as my workout music this past week. It's been going pretty well me thinks. youtu.be/hUylCLuxXj0?...

I love you Armored Core OST.

Maybe I should put up some of my characters as adoptables.

Something I need to learn to accept is I'm never going to finish anything with the same level of polish, (at least in my head), as I did when I had more free time. Accept the mess, I suppose. I'm into it anyway.

commission for @vertimonchi.bsky.social!

That never ending feeling of being in the mood to draw out an idea, but I gotta be somewhere I don't wanna be. Then come home, mood gone. I wish a reminder note got me in that same initial mood.

Had to head out, but I had this idea I wanted to doodle.

I’m never giving another character a house with a circular space again.

I collected his many heads.

Hi blooskee.

Revisiting Scarljin’s first design as her younger self.

I used to have a hard time sitting for long periods of time for a while now. So recently, I decided to start exercising. Developing a natural cushion really does make a difference.

I lost count how many times I’ve edited this since its first version.

Doodled Brün and Scarljin on my break.

Scarljin's cousins.

Another day of the year, another inch closer to my retirement dirt nap.

Obsidian, where have you been all these years. I can finally throw out MS Word.

Had this idea recently.

Hurriedly piled to post for reference.

Oh wow we got bookmarks already?

Man, I should've utilized the alt text more as descriptions.

Silberisk: Witch of Soul (Concepts) #WOB

Testing something.

Had this cover idea while at work. #wip #doodles

✉️

Alright, I guess I’ll tinker around with Toyhouse and Obsidian as a backup.

I need to illustrate that Saeven tanks the feeling of a hundred Tarantula Hawk stings at intervals due to his curse-ridden body.

Some Carminan stuff for the backburner. #wip #WOB

Decided to do more with it. I’m trying to figure out how to do the background. I didn’t need to, but I wanted to. #wip

I was feeling a little unsure about my art as of late, so I made this little comparison with how much I've changed.

Thelycos dad? #doodles

While I was looking through my files, I saw old art of Thelycos’ mom, Ctethidos. So I doodled her to see how different I’d draw her now. I ended up being unsatisfied, so redesigned her. I’m still designing Therapholc physiology, so I thought this would be a fun exercise. Will polish up. #wip #WOB

A couple of Carminan rough ideas. #wip

I’ve been wanting to do more things with darker backgrounds, so I played around with some of these. #WOB #wip #doodles

Updated Ivy's character sheet 🥟

Oh wow, paper/noise textures complement my work pretty well. I should do that more.

A skull motif idea for Shoffnee's headdress. #SABROSE #wip

🐯らくがき #OC

Here’s some more Folsbuuk ideas. The first one’s just for fun. I imagine this is their outfits working a side job at some kind of archive. #WOB #doodles #wip
