here comes the finished artwork!!

doing the colours on this was so much fun!! the patterns on her arm and belt were the highlight for me, since I have never added so much detail to a flat surface before!

it was also nice to draw a night sky as a background again. I don't know why, but they're somehow always my favourite thing to work on in any given composition!

have a heartfelt next 24 hours and remember to do your stretches <3

gasp! another character ref sheet! this time for my character Lanturn Lustre, a student wizard just trying to get by! his mean of getting by may or may not include seducing rich men into giving him expensive gifts and money and he may or may not have gotten a bit too use to living lavishly,,,

Irezumi (1966)

"See how fascinating this painting is? A beauty trampling the corpses of countless men at her feet, feasting on their flesh and blood to grow and prosper. Tell me... don't you think she resembles you?"

The Stormy Sea & Girl in my Dreams 🌊🌪️

This one is from a dream I had. I was standing on a stormy beach when this girl looked back at me, and smiled softly in an almost eerie way as a storm got closer in the background. I couldn't hear it but, I felt the dampness on my face. I think in the actual dream the sky was greyer but, I wasn't afraid of standing so close to a dangerous sky, her presence didn't bother me, and the waters remained calm. It wasn't a long dream but, it stuck with me enough that I felt the need to draw it. Maybe in the future, I'll paint it.

I'm taking a little time to catch up on posting some backed-up art. I did keep drawing though, I wasn't posting (or even logging in). My mental health still isn't where I want it to be so, I have no idea how frequently I'll be posting but, I'm trying to make my "post this" album a little less intimidating.

Happy New Year folks!!

2024 is done and dusted, 2025 is here! Hopefully this year will be better than the last!

The character of choice I went with for this year’s piece was Halvren, he’s one of the side characters you meet in the prequel arc. I’m not going to spoil his role but he’s integral to the story and I definitely had a lot of fun designing him!

Cheers! 🥂

cheers for the finished colours on this one!

getting these right actually took 3 attempts, which doesn't sound like a lot, but trust me it is. aside for the long time I've already spent on it, I actually love this piece! it contains tons of elements I really like to draw and see in other people's work ^v^

speaking of, I just realized that I've never actually posted some food art on here! honestly speaking it's also been a while since I've actually shaded something like it, so that might be another long-term art goal to fulfill!

have a nice next 24 hours everybody and spend a little time with family, whether it be chosen or blood-related c:

90’s: Full Colour

[thecassafrasstree]

Had a few folks interested in how I made the patches I posted for Solarpunk Aesthetic Week, so I thought I'd give y'all my step-by-step process for making hand-embroidered patches!

First, choose your fabric and draw on your design. You can use basically any fabric for this - for this project I'm using some felt I've had lying around in my stash for ages.

Next, choose your embroidery floss. For my patches I split my embroidery floss into two threads with 3 strands each, as pictured. You can use as many strands in your thread as you prefer, but for the main body of my patches I prefer 3 strands.

Next you're going to start filling your design using a back stitch.

First, put in a single stitch where you want your row to start.

Poke your needle up through the fabric 1 stitch-length away from your first stitch.

Poke your needle back down the same hole your last stitch went into so they line up end-to-end.

Repeat until you have a row of your desired length (usually the length of that colour section from one end to the other). Once you have your first row, you're going to do your next row slightly offset from your first row so that your stitches lay together in a brick pattern like this:

Make sure your rows of stitches are tight together, or you'll get gaps where the fabric shows through.

Rinse and repeat with rows of back stitch to fill in your patch design.

When you're almost to the end of your thread, poke your needle through to the back of the fabric and pull the thread under the back part of the stitching to tuck in the end. Don't worry if it looks messy - no one's gonna see the back anyway.

This next step is fully optional, but I think it makes the patch design really pop. Once your patch is filled in, you can use black embroidery floss to outline your design (or whatever colour you want to outline with - it's your patch, do what you want). I use the full thread (6 strands, not split) of embroidery floss to make a thicker outline.

I use the same back stitch I used to fill the piece to make an outline that adds some separation and detail. You could use most any 'outlining' stitch for this, but I just use back stitch because it's just easier for me to do.

Once you're finished embroidering your patch, it's time to cut it out!

Make sure to leave a little border around the edge to use for sewing your patch on your jacket/bag/blanket/whatever, and be careful not to accidentally cut through the stitches on the back of the patch.

If you have a sturdy enough fabric that isn't going to fray, you can just leave it like this. If not, I recommend using a whip stitch/satin stitch to seal in the exposed edges (I find that splitting your embroidery floss into 3-strand threads works best for this).

And then you're done! At this point you can put on iron-on backing if you want, or just sew it on whatever you wanna put it on. Making patches this way does take a long time, but I feel that the results are worth it.

Thanks for reading this tutorial! I hope it was helpful. If anyone makes patches using this method, I'd love to see them! 😁
