Feeling the spring mood, here’s a silk moth WIP

The Avatar movie leak feels like it was designed in a lab to farm engagement for Paramount. Whether it was intentional “anti-marketing” marketing or they lucked into it, I feel like the entire online discussion and fan/pirate/artist feud around it has funneled way more eyes onto the project.

I want to make the Yugoslavian brutalist magnemite

The artwork shows a scene with ruin made of columns and vases. There are large vases and pitchers in the background. There are stacked constructions resembling temples. They are made of columns, vases and sculptures. Some columns are falling, some vases are broken and some roofs are sliding down. There's a round pool in the center decorated with mosaics on the outside. Broken plates, bowls and vases are scattered around it. Some have large eggs in them and some have flowers. There's a large open egg in the center. It lays on a broken plate decorated with flowers. A woman is standing at the center of the egg releasing a young heron.

Damn dude, you wanna read a terrific book? This is a good one for our bleak and violent times. Three collected novellas catalogue a monastery of monks at the dry edge of the world through the ages of humanity rebuilding after nuclear holocaust.

Never forget the pipis

that would work!

Kris, we have Applin, Absol (Mega Z), Morgrem, Ceruledge, Luvdisc, and then... the last one we're not sure. Mimikyu because Kris has always struggled with their identity? Slowking (Galarian) for the shell crown possession motif? Maschif because its a puppy? Open to ideas on this one.

We don't know what to do for Tenna at all... Morpeko for the dual emotional sides of him maybe... Rotom because appliance... we don't have anything else lol

Jeannette and I came up with the definitive Spamtom Pokemon team

beautifully intricate bird inks!

Spoilers sort of - seeing the ash fall over all of Pewter City and bury the museum, seeing the beached rusting S S Anne, seeing all these decaying monuments that were so familiar in Pokemon RBY… It’s sort of melancholy in an interesting way

Pokopia, beyond being incredibly creative and fun, also has a low simmer narrative that hits close to home about climate catastrophe and loss and finding meaning in communally rebuilding a world that has been left to rot. I don’t know, it’s weirdly affecting.

Toxic elements, all around. Illustration piece for work.
