ocs are at their peak when you are having FUN and they're FOR YOU. i'm talking "this doesn't exist in media and i want it to" "i like this character trope/archetype" "i love these colours" "i love this style of fashion" "i love when pairings are like this" TAKE IT ALL AND PUT IT INTO A BLENDER

This reflective acrylic sheet shows how 1980s illustrators were able to trace real-life objects on the computer. Once it was aligned, it reflected whatever was in front of it over the monitor's display, allowing artists to trace it in a tool like MacPaint or MS Paint. Simple, low tech and effective.

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

Marvellous Minoan cups made by Bronze Age potters about 3,800 years ago! Which is your favourite? ❤️ Heraklion Archaeological Museum 📷 by me 🏺 #Archaeology

Beginner knitting question I can't find an answer to: If a pattern calls for 430 yards of yarn but I only have 420, will I actually run out? How accurate are these yarn estimates?? What if I used a smaller needle size? It's a scarf. My yarn is superwash which supposedly stretches a lot. 🥺

To see a brighter tomorrow.

A little set of illustrations I've been working on this week, I will forever be obsessed with this aesthetic and colour combination 🔭

JPL's website from 1995

Can't get over this photo. I keep thinking about it, coming back to look at it. Saturn makes life worth living 😭

went from "i'm gonna make an aldena ref" to "what if i made everyone stand next to each other?" i hate myself 😂💢🔪

I don't fully understand this and the options are still developing/evolving but imo this sounds like a better way forward than trying to make bsky backpedal (they won't, let's be real).

chaekgeori-style piece ft. a bunch of artifacts from my grandparents' house

deliver me finally scanned this one. brush & nib

I got a full size tripod with built in levels for $6 at the thrift store! ✨️ If I ever make art videos again it'll be really useful, ha ha ha...

Old drawing for a Sailor Moon tribute show, I still like it a lot✨ #illustration #SailorMoon

Undone 🧵 What is done, undone What is made, unmade No braid, rope, noose Is strong enough to keep you safe.

*installs my label printer in Linux* Why won't it print this shipping label???? Wait, what's that-

Making progress with Linux, ever so slowly! Got another drive for storage for my birthday 🥰 Now I've installed all 4 drives in the case, rearranged the SATA cables, and read about boot/mounting settings. Today I'm gonna edit the fstab, pray for meeee lol 😭

in a lonely world, i found you!

girl you would flourish under my dark tutelage #oc

Me: *doesn't draw my beloved OCs for almost a year* Also me: I should draw Flavortown Gortash immediately

Absolutely the best mod I’ve installed, not a single regret. #gortash #bg3 #baldursgate3

This Linux stuff is an emotional rollercoaster. One minute I'm stressed out researching fuckin NTFS drivers or whatever, the next I'm over the moon because I think I can set the PS1 sound to play on startup 🥺😂

9 years of dust and webs in my computer. The front filter was so densely caked with dust that light couldn't pass through it 😂

Yesterday I took my Switch out of the dock for the first time in about a month and it was HOT. It wanted to update, so I did that, then set it down for a couple hours. When I picked it up again it was STILL hot and battery drained to 60%. That is insane. An hour on airplane mode cooled it off.

My sci-fi comic VALOR has a launch date!! Join my salvage crew as they grapple with what it means to be human after they discover an illegal humanoid robot abandoned on a derelict transport ship. Pages will be posted on Fridays starting August 1st, 2025! valorbot.webcomic.ws

Ok no the dealbreaker is CSP LOL I refuse to give it up!!! Um... dual boot I guess? 🫠 Sorry if this is super boring, I haven't had the energy to figure this out for 10 years but now it's happening & I'm EXCITED‼️Thanks Microsoft for backing me into a corner with your evil & insufferable bullshit 😘

Might be able to abandon Windows actually?!? Could use Gimp 3.0 instead of Affinity Photo, and apparently there's some good video software on Linux. I think the last dealbreaker would be my scanner, so if that plays nice... 😈

I've been researching how I can switch to Linux while also keeping Windows 10 available (so I can keep using a bunch of stuff that isn't Linux friendly) aaannnddd I feel like my brain's gonna explode. In a good way. 👀

All Living Things Demo is OUT on STEAM The short demo will introduce you to a few main puzzle mechanics. How one thing is hidden in another, how another thing can deceive, and how all things have a role to play in the eternal becoming store.steampowered.com/app/3681490/...

The QuickMenu is an invaluable part of my workflow, but not a lot of people know about it! You don't actually need to go all the way up to your Actions in Procreate to flip your canvas, it can be a whole heck of a lot quicker and easier [ #Procreate | #tutorial ]

Bryce 2 (1996)

omg Bandcamp now has a popup when you listen to something a few times, suggesting that you buy it, with a little heart. If you say no, the heart breaks and CRUMBLES INTO PIECES I just like to wait until I have more stuff in my cart so I can make one lump purchase rather than a lot of little ones 😭

Uhhhh I may have just impulse bought pretty new buttons for my Steam Deck so uh. I guess. I'm gonna have to learn how to take apart electronics. 😂

Discover the secrets of alchemical processes, the hidden secrets of world and even deeper secrets hidden within us… All Living Things has a steampage, wishlist to be notified for the upcoming early demo! store.steampowered.com/app/3681340

Never Enough

I've been playing around with 3D and my god I am feeling absolutely drunk with power.
