Also did no dupes... which was difficult. But eyyy someone else that likes Scaler! I double posted because I realized I could add a certain free-to-play game on the web called corru observer, go play it.

That's it for the photos that are worth sharing!

This is by far my favorite of all the photos from this day, even though the birds featured are plain ol' pigeons, not even with any fun color morphs. They were arranged so nicely in the tree. #BirdPhotos #Photography

Caught these two preening with each other, and got a lot of great shots out of it. #BirdPhotos #Photography

This one turned out really good, partially because this pair was almost close enough to touch. For some reason, they're pretty chill over here in Europe. That doesn't mean they don't make me nervous. #BirdPhotos #Photography

Same species of bird, but I don't have an ID for anyone. I've seen them walking around beforehand and I think they have long toes. I had to edit both of these a lot to make them presentable, but I think it looks pretty good. #Photography #BirdPhotos

I cannot for the life of me ID this bird, but I think it's a species of cormorant. Could be totally off, I'm only really used to the cormorants found in the Carolinas in the USA. This isn't even in North America. Bonus turtles! #BirdPhotos #Photography

I find Egyptian geese to be super pretty and extremely photogenic, if that is indeed what these are. These were a different pair than the ones with goslings. #BirdPhotos #Photography

I think these were the best photos I got during my bird-stalking day at the park. I think these are Egyptian geese? I moved continents, I'm suddenly bad at ID'ing stuff. #Photography #Birds

I really need to learn how this nice camera works a little better, but I saw #BirdReflections trending and I happened to be taking pictures of waterfowl a few days ago... Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Reflections, so have some Canadian geese on the water.

On one hand, yeah, keeping from seeing spoilers for TADC is going to be kinda ass. On the other hand: Holy shit I am so fucking pumped to see indie productions in theaters. If this continues and indie studios are taken more seriously, the famously soul crushing industry might change for the better.

Woke up feeling especially fragile this morning. Didn't actively realize it was the anniversary of the first hospital stay for Mom until a bit later. Love that even if you don't REMEMBER remember, you can still have a reaction. Really cool!

So... The Amazing Digital Circus. That sure was an episode.

Thanks to my wonderful husband and to my in-laws, I have a new computer for my birthday coming up! Finally... I can have a more permanent setup...

👀

Prüfung ist am Ende. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob ich die bestehen hätte.

Morgen muss ich die C1 Prüfung bestehen... Ich brauche Glück.

My brothers are visiting, and I am now bone-tired after doing Activities for several days in a row. Today we're all on the same page: Only meet up for sushi at the end of the day.

The reds pretty consistently gave me issues. www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd...

I graduated in 2016... same dream. Or I forgot where the class was/got lost.

HOLY SHIT, STOP THE PRESSES! I just found an album I'd been looking for for literal YEARS. It was so hard to find any information on it anywhere online, and it was taken down where I had originally bought it (iTunes... I was an early adopter). It was on Bandcamp! Been sitting there since 2010...

Like the Tide, Inevitable. [ #art #acrosstheeye ]

I've actually done animation camps and stuff waaaay back. My biggest barrier to entry used to be expensive software... but now things like Procreate and Clip Studio Paint have animation built in. I think I used to use Windows Media Player and Paint Shop Pro or photos & scans and a light table.

I remembered I can animate blink cycles. #art #animation #OC

Redesigning Ocha a bit. Some of the changes include total rework of head and neck anatomy underneath fluff (mouth is underneath and very arthropod-like, I'm also working on a special threat display but the anatomy of that is slightly challenging) and a purple shift on the browns. #art #OC

A monster for Aether Nexus.

Sketching on lined and/or graph paper, my beloved art block slayer...

The sketching is going well, drew Iris next to her a few times to get a feel for how they look together. Next step is updating ref sheets and updating fashion... #art #OC

If you see this, it's your turn 🫵 ♥ pronouns ~ they/it/he/she ♥ height ~ 5'6" ♥ zodiac ~ Aries ♈️ ♥ smoke ~ no ♥ tattoos ~ none ♥ piercings ~ none ♥ fave color ~ cyan 🩵 ♥ fave drink ~ Fanta (EU version), piña colada, Glüwein (weiß)

Sketching weirder Ocha, just doing some expressions to test it out. Might give her species mandibles something like Eunice aphroditois, and just have grooming/tasting/grabbing mouthparts at the more visible section... Gonna have to do some anatomy research.

torn between wanting to make Chitun face anatomy secretly very buggy and just making it obvious I want my MC to be expressive still. I could just emulate Alfonse Elric... 🤔

It is Valentine's Day, and also our wedding anniversary, so I will be spending today with my husband. Enjoy this silly doodle I did in honor of that. #art

Age verification? Our first computer had a CRT monitor, was located in my parents' bedroom, and I was only allowed limited access. I loved Sim Ant. Also connecting to the internet made the computer scream and you couldn't make a phone call when it was connected.

Looks like Discord is starting to go the way of Skype. I predict that the next clear successor to that service will very quickly gain a lot of users. Just gonna wait and see what happens in the meantime. On teen mode. As a 30 year old grown ass adult. lmao

lol what Discord... you kinda already eroded user trust, and this ain't gonna help things.

Guess after I've written everything for the worldbuilding, I gotta work on visual development. Including environments haha Art studies are in my future, I feel.

Knowing what someone is actually into and seeing accusations of what they're into based on what they post online is always so funny. Bestie, you are so wrong on that one~

Made some pan fried salmon a few days ago... still thinking about it... 🤤

Been working on a nice, publishable version of my worldbuilding notes. Might post them somewhere sometime.

Horrified at current events and ever so tired. Fuck ICE.

lmao I'm on a blocklist full of AI haters Yeah, I'd say that's an accurate blocklist for me to be on. That's a big compliment in my book.

The grief of losing a loved one, loneliness, and overcoming generational trauma. :D Also aliens, space adventure, magic, and befriending and relating to people despite cultural (and species) differences.

Patterns and outfit design.

Art train! And unlike Deutsche Bahn, it's punctual. Although I think I haven't posted one of these before. I like ✨green ✨ tagging YOU, if you want to

On a more positive note, many of the creators from Hiveworks came together to create the Chimera Comics Collective - a place where we could maintain the 'webring' aspect of Hiveworks and continue supporting each other. Please follow us here! 🦁🐐🐍 @chimeracomics.bsky.social

When I saw multiple comic creators I know and love saying they're leaving Hiveworks, I thought something bad must be happening. But holy hell, this is BAD. Like an OCT but with more money involved bad. My heart goes out to the creators that got belittled and stolen from.

So this reaction image I sketched almost a year ago never became irrelevant.

Cool bugs I designed for Aether Nexus.

Abolish ICE!

Wow, I am STILL really afraid of hypodermic needles. Still haven't passed out, though! Yet. I always warn medical professionals because I have a feeling on one bad day I might.
