#and the cold boys rugby club for being such a wonderful test audience for feedback on designs

WIP Weekend...???

I've been tagged in a few of these but haven't shared much recently because oh boy, have I been trying to juggle a bunch of things going on. I need a day planner - or someone more organized than me keep on top of a day planner for me.

Anyways, here's a splash of all the things I've got cooking across fandoms (except my Terror Reverse Bang stuff which is a surprise!).

After talking to some friends and artists, it turns out it's a pretty even split between those who paint over the background in screenshot redraws and those who just filter/leave it in. As someone who hates painting backgrounds, I thought to splice in a background similar to what I did when I made the fake DA Absolution screenshot. But I hate it. Which means I'm going to have to do my own background. And that's why all I've gotten done are flat test colours since the last time I showed this.

Overdue commission work. It's not much, but overcoming executive dysfunction and crippling guilt over it being overdue to start working on it was a huge accomplishment for me. Also hi, look forward to another flower cameo portrait soon! (I always love these once I get going on them.)

Watch my follower count just disappear and people come at me with pitchforks now that I publicly announce I'm drawing rugby boys. It started as an exercise because I have spent the past several years drawing the same character (QUINN) over and over and over again and it's made me feel like I've gotten stuck? I know I joke that "I can draw all of one dude" but I've recently felt like it's become a legitimate problem. And then it got out of hand. Anyone want Marcelo stickers? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

How about "ASK ME ABOUT EUROPE" ones?

Tagging people that I've seen working on things or experimenting with stuff/exercises because even though I know I haven't been present much, I still see the things you're working on and am silently cheering you on: @greypetrel @ndostairlyrium @daggerbeanart @theluckywizard @delicatefade @nirikeehan @dreadfutures @kiastirling @idolsgf @zoannearts
