I bought a cheap flash for my little canon demo and it came in the original 1970s packaging. Please appreciate the back of the box.

The rain is here, it smells GLORIOUS.

No YOU keep buying dead analogue things as projects.

I took this photo on Sunday, visiting my Grandad for lunch with my Dad. At the time I was just taking a break to stretch my legs, but now I'd happily sit on these steps being soaked in spray. #anamorphic #photography #heatwave

The humidity today. I am so sticky I am a gecko and will soon seek a small glass wall to scuttle along joyously.

The Wrens are having a full on rave this morning, little guys absolutely going for it.

If this were an adventure, who would be your two companions?

Yellow coat Yellow Coat Yellow coat. Inspired by this Charles James coat www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

Cycled into town to browse the art books ttrpgs.

I have had so much on and haven't drawn anything for myself for weeks, which has made me a sad badger. LUCKILY @itsquinns.bsky.social has the most inspiring videos on ttrpgs and I can feel burn out fading. Quick postit listening to youtu.be/Fp_irLWtsGc I'll get back to personal projects again.

Middle daughter got a metal detector for their birthday and I am now in possession of various epochs of bottle caps, some keys to lost locks, coins various and a single whistle.

I've been posting recent pics over on my side blog if that sort of thing interests you. Otherwise I'm busy doing house stuff 🫠 hopefully get some proper drawing time again soon.

Remember: there's no difference between a fan watch and a hate watch in marketing metrics

This is my ribbon twirling, umbrella wielding glamour bard, her name is: Oscilia Foxglove! Heres the design process from post-its to final sheet, this character design was utter comfort zone and a lot of fun to draw together many of my favourite things! #bard #dnd #characterdesign #art

Enjoying just exploring shapes and patterns through the theme of an old idea I had rolling around.

30min sketches. Forever ago, there was a facebook group called spitpaint with a daily theme which I'd try to do at lunch. I dont think I could do this now, I was painting a lot of key art at the time, these were a lovely throw away break from more high fidelity work, a place to try out ideas.

I got an anamorphic lens... so everything will be W I D E from now on.

I think this is probably the first time in two years where I've actively enjoyed making something I'm going to have so much fun doing all the writing for this silly stuff

The most chthonic hulders in Underoak live deep underground where smells are used for navigation, cultural signalling, declaring warnings etc. This guards fill the air with incense showing their allegiance. It's an overwhelming place for first time visitors from the surface. #characterdesign

I've been hiring concept artists for years, here's my old thread of general advice, from my experience. I wrote this after reviewing artist's work that had been reading either bad advice or niche advice being given as blanket advice. I hope it's a helpful addition to the mix of things to consider.

Neosnapaeth is my Void elementalist character for Draw Steel (by @hellomcdm.bsky.social ) here are some explorations of her from the sketchbook. I like setting off on a design and working through a core concept until it feels like it has depth and life. #characterdesign #conceptart #sketchbook

I saw a post about pen drawings, but lost it. Here are some of my old ink stuff that I did in the month of ink drawings, usually sketch one day, ink the next. These ones were all alphabetical mount themed. #ink #illustration #characterdesign #elephantshrew #isopod #gecko #moorhen

Show me what you can do with just a pencil!

Sunday morning sketching. Hope you are all clinging on. #art #sketchboom #characterdesign #dnd

New personal work! I took my time with this one but if felt so good to get back at some personal work, hopefully more coming soon!

Why did genocidal Israel headshot a US journalist, try & fail to pin it on Palestinians, arrest a local journalist that witnessed the murder but couldn't pin anything on him, and then threw him in a concentration camp with no trial or crime, just because they can? www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/...

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women." Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration. It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. Our latest.

UK folks this will come for us too, bin Ring.

Rowling being a hateful transphobe, nazi crimes denier and Epstein lister sadly have zero impact on her tired franchise marketability. I really hope that the hbo show will be a dud and that hasbro will just burry that shit. But knowing how everyone tolerates transphobia, I have big doubts.

Best signs from around the hospital today.

Sketchbook page, some iterations on a character and then too much focus on ginkgo leaf patterns, done while trying to get my head around #drawsteel character creation. #characterdesign #sketchbook

🔥 Quote with your horn art! 🔥 Here's some sketches -

Morning run (16k), so early the rest of the world hadn't streamed in (the mud had though).

A better cat fellow than my earlier sketch, less like the cat head, human body thing, and more like the weird fluff slinky that cats are. This is a friend's tabaxi bard character in our current d&d game.

If you enjoy my sketchbook stuff and would like to support me I've scanned a sketchbook which contains drawings and notes on each page. ko-fi.com/s/ff6e8d88bb

All our snow has melted (for now) but in the soft mist of the morning I wandered up to the church. #photography #angel #fog #graveyard

Got some time for personal projects. WIP I hope everyone is having peaceful holidays

The Ocelot Knight - Because wizards are notoriously bad at returning borrowed magical books (with awful excuses), the library had to train knights specifically to deal with the late fees of book hoarding wizards. #characterdesign #dnd #worldbuilding

Merry Christmas, in the kitchen with the music on doing all the cooking to all the other introverts who celebrate it.
