My name is Reddy Kilowatt! You’d be surprised at all I’ve got and all the things that I can do if put to work by men like you!

While my mental health had a large part to play in my absence (yet again) the other main reason was: I was spending all of my waking hours on these guys. (+2) I started these later than I meant to and almost ran out of time. There's still one more I have to paint (I'm not seeing them until after the new year) and another I need to give to its rightful owner so... I'll post them after they've been delivered to avoid accidental spoilers for my loved ones.

I'm not sure if this project was good or bad for my mental health as, it gave me a sense of purpose for a while but, I felt more hollow as I finished. It stressed me out having to speed work through these, sometimes painting more than one at a time. I had a moment where I felt embarrassed having spent the time and effort. Like my affections for my loved ones outweighed theirs. It's something I have to reflect with for sure but these are just examples why I wouldn't do the project the same way. Every stroke of my paintbrush was thought out and even when I needed to start one over, I managed to pull through. I learned a lot about myself with this little gift idea so, it's totally worth it.

Ballerinas in a Garden- I couldn't decide on a reference to use for the ballet: "The Sleeping Beauty." so, I went with a Zen garden background and matched roses to the dancers.

Add. Edit: I was trying to make it appear as if a wanderer had happened upon a garden where dancers couldn't be torn from their music.

Invader Zim- Supposed to be glow in the dark. His and Gir's outlines, as well as his face, Gir's eyes, Gir's dog disguise, and of course "DOOM". I originally started painting something else and got it covered and remade to Zim with 48hrs to go.

Dragon Father- The star signs were my first ever attempts at constellations. While I messed up, I find it helps define the shape of the egg. The eggs are painted with a shimmery paint so at certain angles it looks purple.

Add Edit: I tried to make sure that the eggs looked like a small snake clutch.

Godzilla- My instruction/advice was: "Godzilla." "The Electric Powered one." I very intentionally did not paint her with the larger breasts and hips I found on most movie posters/references. The underwater light was so tedious and fun. (It might be proof of mas*chism.)

Add. Edit: This was my first attempt at a city silhouette, and at a "glowing underwater" effect. This painting probably had most of my 'firsts' that I did during this project.

Wicked- I wanted to blend the movie poster and the Broadway poster. The only reason Glinda's hair is coloured is because the painting felt like it was missing something. I remembered a lyric pointing out that Elphaba "didn't expect her roommate to be so blonde". Seemed to fix the aesthetic issue.

Winnie The Pooh- I came across so many references I had to narrow it down. Thinking how difficult some of the little details would be in order to fit every character, I decided to look for "classic" references specifically. I unfortunately didn't have the time to be exact enough to make it look like water colour. This was the last one I finished.

🙂✌️✨ This project had a lot of firsts for me: painting on wood 'canvases', city silhouette, fandoms I'm not in, constellations, and that's just to name a few. It was a labour of love though, if I ever did this again I would start earlier and work it into my schedule, properly. I would not handle this project, in the same way. I have one more to finish and I'll be back to my regular art/projects. I hope you liked my art if you saw it- if not, no big deal. Mostly, I hope that my loved ones felt the love I put into it.

AVA-M Early Bird: Experimenting with Powers

Experimenting with different abilities that TSC have. (The cursor-like dagger/spear is an idea I have.)

Yesterday I did a first concept design for my OC Dustin Canis. A streamer by day, but by night he uses a unique power he gained for a supernatural entity that prevents him from getting recognised. Initially he accepted it to give himself more privacy after a stalking incident, but he quickly realised the utility it holds and now uses it to search for his missing best friend Noah doing some uh, very questionable and “this would end my career if it git out” things.

His persona both on and offline is defined by two extremes; Extreme devotion and charisma and paranoia. He has a lot of energy, is always encouraging and is someone that’s easy to listen to for hours BUT he’s also the kinda guy to scream or shit his pants at a one enemy in a game or somehow mistake a piece of cardboard blowing in the wind for a brick flying towards him.

Oh also he has like a wolf furry form I haven’t drawn yet. He also has a hammer he uses as a weapon and lightning based magic powers. Pretty happy with this design overall but I will make some small changes.

Now behold Storm Spider's other half, Tempest! Two sides of the same coin, the duality of a gemini, and an equal balance between Spider and Symbiote.

Consider Storm Spider the calm and Tempest the raging storm. Weather its getting on Skye's bad side, or her wanting to let loose and go feral, Tempest will come out to play. Her symbiote was modified to be non-sentient. Tempest has no other consciousness but Skye's. Allowing her to have full control of herself with no major personal, mental, or subconscious drawbacks. The symbiote substance was enhanced with nanites laced into it. If the organism is separated from its host by any means, the nanites hone in on her spider suit's signal and guide it back to re-bond. Tempest bio-electric venom is more frantic and wild, used in battles where it doesn't matter how much damage might be caused. Along with heightened smell and hearing and being physically stronger. Tempest also has tendrils that can extend her shocks. She can also grow electrified spikes from her as either defense or projectile offence to disperse. While Tempest maybe stronger on all accounts, there's one drawback. If she uses Tempest too much her symbiote half gets overworked, the symbiote gets exhausted and retreats back into Storm Spider so it can retain energy. Meaning use Tempest in moderation. The static chargers in Storm Spider's suit can't collect while they're covered in symbiote.

We geminis are twofaced. From calm and collected, to passionate and instinctual. My Spider-sona and Symbiote-sona are one and the same. Tempest actually existed long before Storm Spider in my imagination. I had a dream once I had a symbiote, and with it I became Tempest. The head crests were from the dream and they looked cool, a tail because I like tails and always wanted one, and yes Tempest has the awesome long tongue.

Fun fact: Turns out symbiotes are really cold when they creep up on you. Though given they have no body to conduct heat with, that made sense.

Solid State Batteries Are REALLY Here: Yoshino Power Station

Solid-state batteries are here.  They are still nascent, but offer much longer lifespans.  Of course, they aren’t actually included in anything, yet.

Rough math has it cheaper than the Telsa per kWh.
