tangentially related
if you feel stuck or like you've stagnated and haven't improved
go back to an old project and rewrite (or redraw) even a page of it
compare them side-by-side
I can (almost) guarantee you that you'll see a difference between your past and present skill level
That's fair. It's really good, especially campaign 2 which is the Mighty Nein. It is a lot to watch though, I'm only on episode 30 I think and I've been listening to it for a couple months now lol
Aww, thanks 😁
It's fanart for Critical Role the big Dungeons and Dragons YouTube lol
Also, almost everyone is in profile which is one of my weaker areas. It's super important to draw things you don't normally or like drawing because it helps build your visual library. It is a pain in the butt though 🤷
I'm planning out artwork for another video and it's Mighty Nein fanart which I'm super excited about but I'm also including eight of the characters and making it super intimidating for myself.
It's super exciting, but holy heck why do I need to make it so challenging 😅
“All children held in immigration detention should be immediately released, and these facilities should be permanently shuttered.”
Soo adorable! And the details are incredible!
Alright so it seems I've gotten to the point in Critical Role's campaign 2 where I am sobbing after each episode... Mostly since Found and Lost which makes sense lol.
Seriously, Critical Role is my favourite thing in existence and the fact that I was so late getting into it is a tragedy.
Nice, that's pretty cool. I also hope they all go well 😁
Working on video stuff today and it feels great. I'm eventually coming back to YouTube but I think my best course of action is to take my time a bit and get myself to a place where I can actually upload consistently. I put planning into my webcomic, it only makes sense to do the same for videos lol
Chibi version of Mollymauk Tealeaf from The Might Nein animated series. He has lavender skin, dark blue hair and dark grey horns. He's wearing an open white shirt, two-tone green pants with stripes on one leg, crossed brown belts and thigh high black boots. Over that he's wearing a dark red tail-coat with green colours around the shoulders.
I used to make little paper phone charms all the time and decided I wanted to make a little chibi Mollymauk for my phone. One day I'll be able to make acrylic versions of these lol

I watched the animated Mighty Nein series and that made me want to finally watch the original campaign. I just finished episode 26 and since Mollymauk is my favourite character and for those who know... I am not okay 😭
Good
Watercolor painting of an orange tabby cat wizard standing in front of a bookshelf and reading a recipe and adding things to a bowl magically.
I had the urge to get back into water colour painting recently so I've been playing around and experimenting. It's been years since I last did any sort of water colour painting but I'm having so much fun with it.
Definitely going to be doing more cute fantasy critters 😁

Trying so hard not to hate my job but they really test me. Any time I put in a specific time on my availability because I need a morning for meetings or just can't work they'll completely ignore my actual availability and schedule me for whatever they want.
The place is a disorganized shit show.
Yeah, because not having any joy in life is definitely the way to go. The stupid grind all the time mindset needs to die. Normalize people having fun and enjoyment out of life.
Pfft, right? Just save and work hard! Totally not hard to do at all 🙃
Oof yeah, definitely good to know. I've been keeping an eye on prices and saving when I can. Late stage capitalism seriously sucks
I know, it's absolutely ridiculous and wild. Didn't think I'd live to see an actual shortage of ram. There seriously needs to be more regulations on the gen ai and their data centers. Something that takes that many resources should not be allowed to run as rampant as it has.
It's still chugging along fairly well, she just has a few glitches now and no disk space 🤣
Thank goodness for external hard drives lol
Been working on a commission for the past few months and so video work took a back seat so I could focus on that and deal with life lol.
Back to finally working on videos feels almost weird now though 🤣
Also, pray for my laptop... The poor thing is not doing great lol
Came for the gorgeous art
Stayed for the Ghost lyrics 😄
This looks amazing though!
I haven't been able to do pizza d since I worked there lol
It's definitely not the worst but also not the best. I also don't like that they got rid of the chicken caesar panini too, that was my fave menu item for ages.
I get that, it's looking like my October vid won't be out till December but that's probably fine lol.
And they definitely do have some decent food places though I currently live close to some of the best take out pizza I've ever had so I'm kinda spoiled lol.
Good luck with the napping though!
I definitely did the resting, I just have that fun thing where resting makes me feel like I'm wasting time lol. But all rested and ready to be creating again.
Also, I'm so sorry you had to go to that place again 🤣🤣 jk, it's not a half bad place to visit 😁
Anxiety has been through the roof on all of the art work I've been needing to do. Thankfully life is settling down again so I can actually breath and think lol.
Working on all the things I need to catch up on and should have some new art posted soonish 😊
I had to move at the beginning of October and it took the entire month to both get the Internet hooked up and to just recover from the move. With work being insanely busy on top of that, I'm super behind on all the art stuff I've been working on. Thankfully I'm back online and working on art again 😁
Characters from the book Howl's Moving Castle as they appear in the book. On the left are Fanny Hatter with blond hair pulled back and grey eyes, Lettie Hatter with shoulder length brown hair and blue eyes, Martha Hatter with long blond hair and grey eyes and Michael Fischer with dark skin, hair, and eyes. In the center are Sophie Hatter with long reddish hair and blue-green eyes and Howl with longish pink hair and blue eyes. On the right are the Witch of the Waste as she looks at the end of the book with long fair hair and dark eyes, Mrs. Angorian with olive skin and dark hair and eyes, the turnip-headed scarecrow (with his movie design) and Calcifer who has a long blue face, green tufts of flames as hair and eyebrows, a purple mouth with wicked teeth and orange flames for eyes with purple pupils.
Before I forget, here's the art for my most recent video. It's several of the characters from the book version of Howl's Moving Castle as they're described in the book.

Oh hey! I completely forgot this went up yesterday. September's video was later than I'd hoped it would be but we're in the middle of moving and work got crazy busy. But the video is up and it's all about Howl's Moving Castle! Check it out if you have the chance 😁
