The best of my daily sketches from week 2. That's 14 days down towards the 45 day habit making. Some of these were my first real uses of the Pentel Pocket Brush Pen.

The Carsoros/Odoziers were inspired by the Hylics musical tracks revealed thus far, especially after I realized Carsoro's sprite has a face... OTL . Still exploring my Carsoro dragon idea.

Besides those, I'm (inaccurately) poking at my JC minion Basilisk. Have a Venusaur, pneumatophore, and Ba-Bird too.

photos with hopefully more useful info! i took a platinum ink converter i usually use in my platinum brand fountain pens and hacked off the gold ring on the end that plugs in, and that allowed me to wedge it onto my pocketbrush successfully and thus use custom ink instead of the usual cartridges!

the converters have twist pistons so you twist the black knob on the end to push the piston/plunger inside up and down to suck ink into the pen.

put fountain pen ink into a platinum converter and wedged it into my pentel pocketbrush and i love it

(j herbin's bleu myosotis ink specifically)

Summary of best sketches from Week 5 (34 days)

I played with goat/sheep imagery for Gibby Dog, trying to imagine if horns like the four-horned Hebridean sheep grew perfectly around in the disc shape. I think that I unintentionally made Gibby Dog look old and wise.

Figuring out the designs and my personal head cannons for the both dude from the Lullaby and the TV monks. Currently on the thoughts of "Lullaby is a plant, with velvet worm traits for muscular support".

Also, the idea of "TV monks (that we've seen) are melt-scarred survivors of the Crisping of Amulom, but not to the point of perma-death". (I imagined their TV heads bursting into flames as the sage towers were attacked, even if they were in remote locations.)

Practicing hands - my lack of skill in them was on my mind more than usual.

3rd page is what couldn't fit anywhere else. A poolman broke the TV machine. And I guess a small dragon, an emu, and a walking hand are going to whoop someone's ass off to the left?

There have been a few times where people my age or younger have found out that I know a little Japanese and then jump right into talking about like anime or JRPGs or something. Which is a reasonable conclusion to make, that I'd be into those things if I studied Japanese, since that's a common motivator for a lot of people to learn the language.

But the truth is that I have the spirit of a 50 year old man and could not tell you more than, like, one anime that came out this year. The last JRPG I played was Final Fantasy 9 (last year, didn't beat it). I don't even know more than like 3 American movies/shows that came out this year either, to be honest.

And it's not that I live under a rock!!! It's mostly just that.... I don't really care. My attention span for film and roleplay games is very short. Though, I could tell you what 1980s heavy metal albums are getting vinyl repressings this year. That information does absolutely nothing in a conversation about Japanese film and video game media, unfortunately.

Anyway, I started learning Japanese to read art supply packaging. Japan produces some really nice inks and dip pen nibs.
