This place also going full „actually we love AI“ was predictable, but them doing it right as all the big companies are starting to backpedal because AI code sucks, isn’t maintainable, and prevents juniors from learning the skills needed to untangle ai spaghetti is a level of stupid I didn’t expect

Looked up a single thing about making bread on YouTube, got my algorithm flooded with bread making content for a day, and now it‘s already at „why I‘m happier now that I’ve stopped baking bread“ buddy give me a minute also that sounds like a skill issue

My game has five different biomes so far.
Which atmosphere is your favorite? ⛅⛈️🍄❄️🌌
I'd love to hear why!

I turned off all social media on my phone except for bluesky cause it literally has nothing interesting for me to scroll through and isn’t a threat to my productivity

So in my darkest, most bored hours, you’ll find me in the back of this void, screaming back

The Tavern Talk Stories: Dreamwalker keyart shows eight characters of different kin and profession sitting at the bar, carousing and enjoying their drinks. In the front, Captain Beebug - the bee-like and fuzzy familiar of the tavernkeep - sits at the front, waving at us from underneath his fluffy coat. At the bottom, it reads "funded in under 1 hour" in all-caps.

We were so invested in preparations, we overlooked posting AN HOUR AGO that the Kickstarter is live

This becomes even bigger news, as we'VE REACHED OUR GOAL IN LESS THAN ONE HOUR?! 👏🥲 We could not be more astonished. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts 💚✨

I don’t really post much anymore but happy new year to y‘all! 2025 sucked but I also had a lot of good things happen to me and I’m excited for 2026 and I’m gonna keep making more art and hopefully also actually be able to post stuff again :‘) Maybe you’ll see me repost some of what I’m working on…

I don't think I ever posted the final version of this here, so I hope yall enjoy my weird big pigeon creature. I put this illustration down for a while at the beginning of the year but I'm starting to prefer art that feels a bit unfinished rather than ruining my hands chasing perfection

Continuing with my artfight posts, here's the piece I made of @limerami.bsky.social 's character Mephistopheles. Pretty proud of this one I gotta say!

great, first time I post my art in ages and bluesky auto-flagged a centipede as nudity. can we just stop with that stuff finally.

Finally posting my artflght art from this year - the first piece was a revenge for
@mystalia.bsky.social of their character "the lady"
This one started out as a pencil sketch that I digitally painted over, but you can still see some of the original lines and paper texture coming through :>

Cosmic mage in front of a black hole

#Artfight attack for @resultsmayvari.bsky.social of their character The Triumvirate. I really like how this one turned out! 🐉 #art #myart Come fight me! artfight.net/~Everyle

HEY I'm sorta kinda maaaybe doing #artfight a little this year? emphasis on a little, cause I really really don't have the kind of free hand time that I used to, but I don't want to miss out entirely. Here's my profile artfight.net/~Vari

And here's a look at the new guy I added :>

We’re incredibly proud that Cloudscrapers is part of this year’s
@cozycelebration.bsky.social

It’s our very first Steam event with the game – and hopefully just the beginning.

You’ll find us among many other amazing cozy games in the showcase! ☕️

Thanks @ameliatyler.bsky.social for lending your incredible voice in our first announcement trailer!

We added a little cutscene to our relaxing tower builder
that shows the full construction when your run ends.

It looks quirky. But also kind of beautiful.
What do you think?

Wishlist us on Steam if you dig the cloudy vibe ☁️

Lil WIP of some personal part that I'll have to put on hold for a bit. This one's another piece where I started out just painting random brushstrokes and just went with wherever that took me :>

Sharing this illustration I made for @nementicgames.bsky.social new project "Cloudscrapers"! Definitely check them out and show them some love ^^

I had a lot of fun making art for this cozy game project over the past two weeks - definitely check it out if ya got a few minutes :>

Just a lil bat fella I started painting as a warmup but ended up putting some extra time into. sometimes you just gotta draw something cute, bright, and fuzzy

Finally finished this illustration that I started a while ago and then put on hold to work on other random little projects. Don't know my motivation behind this one anymore but I like how it turned out ~

Illustration of the pokemon Chikorita and Totodile painting a Tepig in the colors of Cyndaquil

They're helping tepig against the haters after the #PokemonZA trailer u-u

I love the lil guy and think he's perfect as is, but I thought the idea was cute and wanted to paint it

Illustration of a humanoid monster with butterfly, bat, and moth features walking across a battlefield.

Random social media "advice" keeps trying to tell me that drawing pretty women is how you draw more people to your art and oh fuck I hope I did this right

(Reposting cause I think I tagged this too harsh before :') So. I did in fact not do it right)

- how long I’m gonna take.
I also tend to adjust my style and methods to what people need rather than having one consistent style and workflow, which makes things even harder. I kind of built myself up as this jack of all trades in a way, but I feel like this is biting me in the ass right now

@ artists who do commissions or freelance work while having adhd and thus aren’t consistent in how efficiently they’re working… how do you price your art? With my self esteem as low as it is I struggle to price my art, but I can’t just go by some sort of hourly rate calcs cause I won’t know -

I always feel horrible for weeks before my birthday because I'm the biggest hater of the passage of time, but at least that's gonna be over tomorrow and then I'll actually work on projects again. SO, uh, sorry for not really existing so far on this account. bad timing

Overcome by an immense urge to just draw creatures again. Just. overcome the need to be marketable and just make A Thing.

Illustration of a muscular elven woman wearing fur and leather with ice spikes forming on the hair on top of her head as well as on the tips of the braids framing her face. Her face and arms are covered in dark, scar-like markings

We did another #DnD oneshot yesterday so I ended up designing another character! Our DM isn't too strict on designs feeling species-accurate, so her being a buff eladrin druid was fine with him. Honestly really happy with how my art is developing now that I stopped chasing a style that isn't mine

Rough illustration of an anthropomorph mantis carrying a crossbow with insect wings on its front and a wasp nest on its handle. the character is also joined by two wasp spirits

A rougher character sketch but my partner joined in on the #DnD session as well so I made a quick design for his Thri-Kreen Ranger :>

Gonna be beating perfectionism to a pulp by posting unfinished character designs and meme-y sketches. Why do I still try to keep up this weird people pleasing perfectionist image when I could also just have fun?

I kinda want to treat bluesky as a restart to how I handle commissions as well as just casual posting. I never really posted sketches before.

I also feel like I should really embrace the things people commission me for - Emotes, Icons, Character designs (usually for TTRPGs or sonas), and Pngtubers.
