I’m super sorry for skipping two prompts for the Stancest Summer and posting this one a few days late 🙇‍♀️ One of them is smut, which I am super shu about and still working on. The other I just got too busy to draw.

But I wanted to post this one, even if it’s past its due date because this one means alot to me.

So the final prompt for @5summersofstancest was “A Tight-Knit Family” and I dedicate this piece to @donethedevilspedicure. I have been in the Stancest Fandom for a little over 5 years. Maybe more. I’ve seen people come and go and I adored everyone that I could. But it’s a very special thing when you make a close friend in a fandom. I am very glad that I took the time to find a lost Akuroku fic for a certain someone within the Stancest server as a challenge. I never imagined we would get as close as we are now a year later.

The Stancest fandom is a fandom family I am happy to be a part of, no matter how many people I see pass by. And I am especially thankful that it helped awkward little me make a good friend. From making fanart for you, giving you a 2.0 avatar remake, you tuning into my random discord gaming streams and listening to me talk about random shit. I enjoyed it all and more. May we have more years of friendship, Devil.

And I hope other people in the fandom can make a good friend like I have. Here’s to our Grunkles! Until next Summer!

This piece also marks the end of the pencil I’ve been using to draw this entire time. This thing has been through 3 stancest summers and all the fanart I’ve made since starting High-Sixing. It’s time for the lil guy to rest. You did good, Pencil-chan.

#my art #stancest #5summersofstancest #stancest summer 2024 #I planned this because Devil was initially thinking they were too sick to join #but then they kicked illness butt and joined anyway #they’re so cool #alright enough affection for them #they get overstimulated if I give too much #…#loveyalotstho #mwuah mwuah #okay truly enough now #oh the other prompts will get filled #now that I have a new pencil to use

I thought to make my first Bleach post back one commemorating the third cour, but, nah, I’ve decided I wanna spend more time on that, so it’ll be after my art break instead. It seems I can’t stay active on Tumblr through a full cour… First two, I’m initially inactive. This one, I become inactive, like, halfway in… I swear, if this happens next cour… It’s my last chance 🫠

Anywho, have some Bleach sketches I did first—I’ll post digital ones sometime soon (Would like to work on them a bit more). You can tell, but I was definitely in a mood, haha.

But yeah, sneak peek at my Bleach Kingdom AU! Because ofc I’d have at least one—if I stay in a fandom long enough, one’s bound, eheh—but, in fact, Bleach started them off way back when, haha. I suppose I’ll talk more about that when I finally properly make a post about this one.

I didn’t think it’d take so long to post about it… but I have yet to finalize any of the art… They’re, like, my oldest IchiHime sketches at this point, eheh ^^;;;

#bleach #inoue orihime #kurosaki ichigo #ichihime #au #kingdom au #bleach kingdom au #< suppose i ought to specify fandoms now; make it easier to navigate through #fanart #traditional art #traditional sketch #ever since i graduated my stationary has slowly been disappearing…#so at this point i have no idea where any of my mechanical pencils are so i used my only ticonderoga (by far my favorite wooden pencils)#it was a little dull so my lines aren’t as harsh #i typically have a set way i apply filters to my traditional art but it was so light i had to use less #and i feel it’s quite noticeable eheh—not that that’s a bad thing #but also ummm it’s been so long since i last used loose leaf paper (most my notebooks are packed up rn; don’t feel like going through ’em)#and like??? i don’t remember the paper being so strong??#like i erased so much over and over and it didn’t so much as buckle?#you can’t even tell i erased and redrew and re-erased hime’s blushy expression like 3000+ times to get it just right eheh #makes me wanna draw more on it especially since i’m pretty rusty #maybe i’ll post some traditional art in ramadan then? only time’ll tell ofc #but i really should buy a new pack of mechanical pencils…

Inktober day 9: worry.

I coloured this one, because I recently found out what blending modes do (thanks drawfee!) and I wanted to play around with it :3

[ID in alt text]

#previously when I wanted to colour pencil/ink drawings I would edit it in ps first - but now I know how to use multiply layers!#both options have pros and cons but it does save time and effort. esp because downloading ps on my new laptop has not gone well #Spirited Away #千と千尋の神隠し #Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi #spirited away lin #studio ghibli #described #inktober #inktober2023 #danikunst #2 #day 9 #2023 #drawtober

Assorted Estinian's drawn from screenshots of the dragoon level 40-50 quests. [please click for better quality]

#thebirdarts #ffxiv estinien #ffxiv art #estinien wyrmblood #i had loads of fun drawing him!#some landscapes also from teh questline in the works #i call this style pencil whos that? its just me and paint roller #ok they have way to many sketch layers for how rough they look #but i just used the paint roller tool but even smaller #several times just devolving to hopefully form showing scribbles for the armour #its my new coping strategy to avoid speedruning artistsic burnout [trying to accurately draw the dragoon armour]#fun fact! because its all black its a bitch to understand whats going of unless your tablet is the brightness of teh sun #but tbh i could have just drawn him out of his armour with the sketches i did for that purpose #but thats scary #hes fused to his helmet #its like midnighters cowl #thst just the charterers face #at least we have a consistant hair colour for estinian tho #one day i will draw estinian not in his armour #for now you just get dragoon armour in diff colours and poses

vriska + a transmasc dave doodle

#tryna get into colored pencils again we'll see how it goes #its been a while since ive done a good tag ramble #but like i dont hv anything to ramble about #my art #traditional art #doodles #fanart #homestuck #homestuck fanart #dave strider #dave strider fanart #vriska serket #vriska fanart #oh actually i do hv smth to ramble about today #that being scheduled posts #yknow scheduled posts are actually really convinient and helped me quite a bit #like i used them for a couple months and honestly really liked useing them cuz it allowed me to hv a pretty consistent posting schedule #but in the end i just didnt feel right with it mostly due to the fact that even with it set to post three times a week it felt weird to hav #some of my drawings posting weeks after i finished them. like they were old news to me already but they were barely being released to every #one else it just felt weird for me ig. not to mention that like on the rare occassions that i didnt have anything to post i felt obliged to #draw smth just so i would have smth to post and most of the time that led to me being unhappy with my art. so now ive just decided like fuc #it imma post whenever i want and honestly im really happy with that even if i might be going a little trigger happy with the posting button #recently lmao. ive just been drawing a whole lot and hv so much to post its insane. hell i still hv things in my gallery that i needa post #but ill save those for the next couple of days lol but yeah thanks for coming to my very long ted talk/ramble and goodnight 😴#damn im such a yapster what the hell

btw guys if you ever wanna get me a gift or anything for some reason just like pick out something from the stationary aisle and i’ll be ridiculously happy with it

#shouting into the void #notebook sketchbook sticky notes pens pencils anything i just really like getting new stuff like that #do i use it? hell now that shit gets used properly for like a month and sits rotting in my room after that #i’ve got a chest that’s just full of half used notebooks and journals #but like i really enjoy that stuff #anytime i find myself near that aisle #or heaven forbid fucking barnes and nobles #i always have to talk myself out of buying a new notebook lol #it has been this way since i was a child #for one of my childhood friends birthdays i had originally gotten them a pack of three notebooks #but i talked myself into only giving them one and keeping the rest for myself lol #i really like getting that stuff for no reason

Wine stains on porcelain

(Alternatively: @katkastrofa and I have created 5 OCs in 3 days and I suffer from chronic “I wanna draw the little guysssssss” disease)

#my art #artists on tumblr #the legend of korra #original characters #I have not figured out a tag system yet so for now this is all they’re getting #their names are liba and abyan and I’m very much obsessed :)#they’re the children of two of our other newest OCs. Himman and Summiya #the latter of whom just happens to be Zaheer’s older sister #but he ran away from home years before these two were born so he most likely isn’t even aware of their existence #I mean. I’m sure he suspects his sisters had children. but that’s the extent of what he knows #anyway #quite a few headcanons came to mind as I was drawing so I’m gonna type them out while I can still function #(haven’t slept for two nights in a row. I’m starting to doubt whether I’m actually alive or not)#Liba is older by about a year but once they grow up a little it’s barely noticeable and people assume they’re twins #over time they stop bothering to correct them because really. they’re so close they might as well be #they were both burn with port wine stain birthmarks on their faces. much to their mother’s dismay #she has a whole perfectionism complex and needed her children to reflect that to maintain the family image #thus they were taught how to hide the marks early on. but the powder makes them constantly sneeze #liba is very self conscious about it bc of what her mother put in her head. Abyan less so bc while he’s expected to be perfect #his future doesn’t depend on his looks. he always tries to comfort his sister whenever she spirals too deep. no matter that she’s older #when no one is around to hear he calls her Lili <3 it annoyed her at first so she dubbed him Yanyan in retaliation #but over time they both grew to love the nicknames and now use them unironically #they’re the ultimate partners in crime. their goal? gaining as much freedom from their mother as possible #and sooner or later they will manage to do so permanently. which will make Summiya fall apart. but that is currently Kat’s domain #speaking of. hi Kat. I know you’ve already seen this in pencil but look! I coloured them!!#the birthmarks were both kinda annoying and rather fun to do. maybe I’ll change them later. I was too tired to look at refs so I improvised #and there’s no detail in clothing since again. 0 energy whatsoever. but once I refine their full body designs I shall go all out #that reminds me I need to go collect my new sketchbook. might do it on the way home from the store #okay I’m getting distracted. is this my very unsubtle way of trying to influence Kat to write that Summiya fic?#maybe. maybe not. you can’t prove anything 😁

Decided I want to learn to draw trains so I downloaded a free drawing app and a picture of a train so I could trace it and get used to the motions and shapes :)

#I now have an 1870s train outlined in pink ^_^#I’m going to retrace the train tomorrow and maybe I’ll be a little steadier #this is fun! I get why people learn to draw now!#I’m going to have to get a new grip for my apple pencil because it’s not doing my wretched hypermobile fingers any favors #like just in general since I use this thing to take notes for class too

rly hope i can find the specific pencil case model ive been using for like ten years on a website thats not a mazon 😔

#its weirdly comforting to me to have the like exact same pencil case #when the old one got too worn out to use i just got a new one of the exact same type and ive been #using that one for a good five or six years now LOL #worth the cost to me #nebula.nova

girlies I'm losing my mind.

#personal #vent #oh my goddddd #i thought my coworker and i were finally making decent progress on our project #that we have to present on THURSDAY MORNING #and this is the biggest project we need to do twice a year #only to find. at five fucking pm today. that she had not informed me we are resourcing two of our biggest fabric programs to a new supplier #which supplier? don't know #just know it's not going to be the one I've been planning for #and that the fabric program i DID want to resource #and had SPOKEN TO HER ABOUT TODAY #cannot go to the supplier I pencilled it in as #i don't know if she didn't know herself or just forgot or didn't care or didn't understand or what #for fuck's sake this is your job to know this stuff #don't just sit there looking gormless while i have to find out from YOUR BOSS #who then speaks to me in the most patronizing manner possible as she tells me she can't do my job for me #like motherfucker i just. need. correct. information. jesus christ.#also shout out to the big boss who last week was like tell me if you have any scheduling concerns guys!!!#and then when i told her today i have scheduling concerns because. uh. the fucking project is not going. anywhere. at this rate.#get told oh no sorry we can't do any schedule moves you can figure it out #like???? what???? was the point????? of asking us to come to you????#this is such a prolific fucking issue in my workplace and it drives me nuts #it's like management have heard these trite phrases on a managing people skills course somewhere #and not realised you need to back it up. with actual. actions.#also my manager whomst i loved is now on maternity leave and her replacement is someone i've worked with previously and. hm. suffice to say #she has not changed one bit #in regards to her complete inability to stand up for her team #i'm sure she has her good points but she's as supportive as a fucking wet paper towel #ignoring me trying to set boundaries on my time #but making sure SHE leaves on time for school pickup
