I shaded clothes for once!#not really the vest but whatever#i figured out what his hair looks like under the helmet too#and his face is wider than the helmet makes it look#i just want to figure out a different expression/outfit for the hair drawing#except i know the outfit bc i've drawn him in it before#it's a playstation hoodie and sweatpants lmao#i was finishing up the coloring and watching house and then suddenly it was 1am so i'm going to sleeeeeep g'night <3

will they ever make a How Its Made episode on fursuits
#the grips of creativeprojects have their hold on me and im seriously debating whether i can pull it off#i wanna... i wanna make a cardboard magikarp costume for halloween..... i think i remember someone did smth similar#they made a ghastly costume and wore fishnets. sexy ghastly.. maybe its bc im fond of yuru kyara costume designs#i think i have the right equipment but ive never done smth like making a mask other than using a cardboard box.. so the sculpting#feels a little daunting#in the throes of fursona design hell rn so i should probably do that first. its probably a tiny dog with a 'true form' which is a really#big dog. like kerberos from ccs yk?? i always imagine myself as this tiny little thing but i always liked the idea of something bigger#hiding inside like a cicada skin. like some sort of angel in disguise.... except its this big terrifying creature (affectionate)#im also designing my brothers quackuza stickers rn though im so behind ive been working on this thing for months#yapping

So when I said I was making pjo stickers…. I’ve been… busy. (This may or may not have a matching Nico sticker for u and ur gay bestie ;) shh don’t tell anyone.)
Anyways I have like 5 done already but I’ll actually post them once they’re up for sale? Because I don’t have the shiny waterproof sticker paper I want yet or my print settings quite right. Thoughts?
#jason grace#percy jackson#nico di angelo#pjo#stickers#snoelledarts#wip#i have so many silly ones drawn#also I don’t wanna just post the images bc like…#people really do just be taking things#do I post them anyways and hope? do I make a giant watermark?#many things to think ab#also yes this is the “u are gay! “who says I am gay? meme

Okay, so, I want to try taking my art and online presence more seriously. Which means I'm considering largely two things: setting up Kofi and streaming.
My question to you all though, is what kind of things you'd like to see from Kofi?
My current considerations are a cheap tip jar tier that gets you emojis to use in discord, a slightly more expensive tier for that AND a doodle every month, an intermediate tier for a headshot piece every month, and an Expensive tier for all of that + commission discount OR a scenic/full body piece. In the future, I might post behind the scenes content for LOIL and Primrose Path. Is there anything else you'd like to see?
As for streaming, I'll have to do a lot of testing to see what my laptop can handle currently. Currently I'm thinking maybe scheduling it twice a week; one stream where I work on art, and one where I play a game. Are there any games people might be interested in? I'm thinking RPGs and little life sim games right now.
#recall speaks#im not sure what else to tag.....#but id like to try seeing if this can be a career path for me#i know its a really difficult thing to pull off but if i never try i never find out!!#likewise i think im gonna make more effort to draw fanart#bc i always want to and never do it and obviously thats a thing people . like . so itd be nice if we could share our interests#together#in the future i would LOVE to make stickers and prints too!!#and obviously theres writing (and a game) im trying to get out into the world so one day!#but for now... gimmie thoughts#if anyone exists to Give thoughts

2024 reads / storygraph
The Loudest Silence
YA contemporary
a newly Deaf-Hard of hearing girl moves across the country and starts a new school, struggling with navigating her disability and love for singing and lost friendships - determined to not make any new friends for the year she’s in Florida
and a boy struggling with family expectations and anxiety, after being made the fútbal captain even though he secretly ways to be on broadway, who quickly befriends her
bi & aroace-coded MCs
#The Loudest Silence#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#hm this was okay! it’s a sweet and light YA contemporary focusing on friendship and disability.#It’s a little cheesy; and I liked the immediate easy friendship (well; after a few false starts) and how welcoming Hayden's#friend group/family were. I like how they all jumped to learning/practicing ASL.#I liked how Casey was dealing with her newfound Deafness with a lot of positivity - the main frustrations being how other people treat her#but there’s also the underlying isolation and grief. At the same time it didn't go as deep as it could have with that?#The friendship is central to the story - but honestly I feel like Casey and Hayden’s relationship doesn’t develop past ‘they’re friends now#[continues other subplots] - it ends up being a bit telling not showing their friendship. And then she gets a love interest.#I feel like if you’re centering your book on being a platonic love story - rare in YA! - giving one a love interest kinda goes against#what’s supposed to be unique about it? Like it wasn’t overwhelming and I thought it was sweet actually; I just didn’t come here for that.#I always find it a little odd when YA contemporary books don’t explicitly name their aroace characters as aroace -#obviously I prefer an exploration of experiences to just using the word and nothing else; but in this genre; why not both?#considering various other identity labels are used and discussed there were various points where it felt like it was walking circles#around where it would be obvious to say “no I’m aroace” lmao?#And there’s a point where Casey mentions seeing an ace sticker on his guitar - the only reason it wasn’t an aroace sticker is bc#that would have ruined the minor subplot of her assuming he’s gay/dating his other friend. It felt like a slightly odd way to mention it?#but also I guess I appreciate it being evident throughout but also being a non-issue plot wise - while there’s a couple of moments#of people making romantic assumptions about them;for the most part it’s just treated normally for a boy & girl to be friends (as it should!#It does get points for mentioning people watching by conan grey LMAO (not that it really explores him feeling that way specifically;#but I mean same lol)#Overall plot-wise - there were kind of a lot of things going on and it petered out a bit? I wanted some more depth in some areas.#Also I feel like some of the references seemed out of date for current teens haha.#i do love the love for unusual pets (hairless cat and iguana)#aroace books#bisexual books

#💎#my art#my ocs#character art#digital painting#artists on tumblr#i actually emailed him to ask if he was cool with me posting this bc i obviously heavily referenced his work#and he said i was good to use the images however i liked! which is very cool and sweet. the original picture just stunned me#and it was soo so so fun to paint bc i love bright neon light contrasts like this#idk if the heights and proportions even make sense in the scene idk how big this kinda vending machine is irl#bc the actual ref pic was taken in japan#and i havent been there !#tbf alex the guy by the vending machine is like 6'4 so if hes too big . maybe i intended it. hmm???#i like trying to paint characters into scenes in my style cuz i dont do ut often.. fun challenge#one of my favorite bits was painting in the no smoking sign rifht next to my sketch of achin smoking . yessir#achin goodman#alex young#oh one last thing i did change the design and logo on the vending machine n addrd some little stickers to the electrical box !!#jsut for some visual interest <3 somee of the stickers actually come from another piece i did that ill probably post soon :)#i like making lil stickers.. theyre not really meant to Be anything#i did a lot of this while watching drawfee vods so when i look at parts of it theyre all i can think about haha#ok well i was editing my draft and ended up posting this on accident instead . at 4 am . so it stays LMAO#oops

dip pen ink comm batch 4 complete! for Ezechiel, @ohwwhuv, and Leo :]
#bakuspecial#commission art#the grayscale for these were done on a train with my laptop track pad fksdjhf it was! manageable! but not desirable condition#that was before I got my new current tablet too... thank you my old huion. you served me well. Im so sorry I chipped ur paint to shit#ngl the texture on the new one's better off the bat. the grip's better and it has good kinetic feedback#too bad abt the touch buttons tho... I was confident I could make use of them but alas#things need actual feelable buttons again please I can Not tell where anything is when Im drawing and cant look at the tablet#my eyes are on the screen!! Im bad at gauging distance!!! please give me buttons I can find in the dark. please#even the old huion which has actual buttons I still couldnt use them. bc theyre not raised#theyre flat to the tablet's surface. you know what I shouldve tacked raised stickers on them I was stupid there#well! the more u learn. the more u learn#I'm happy with the current tablet tho!! buttons stuff aside it's nice to draw on. and thats what important. wrists dont hurt no more#almost said ''I miss the wacom eraser end" I don't. not really. every time I used that thang I was like wow you are so imprecise and blunt#litcherally why would you want basically a mappable stylus end but it's 50 times the size of a normal nib and you cant see where ur drawing#especially on a screen tablet. the dynamic there makes absolutely no sense#I can really do the same thing now by mapping one of the stylus buttons to swap foreground color to transparency#anyways. this has been my testimonies on tablets. in the tags of a dip pen ink post lmao#well! this is a late post I shouldve posted this before art fight. thank u again to that anon who reminded me#have a good day lads! we can answer emails together. hands in professional hands

dating an art student was so crazy I'm just thinking abt that one birthday I had where my ex got me stickers from the etsy of the person they were cheating on me with....
#they made them address the thank you note to me and everything ajskfjfkfb. i didnt know they were cheating at the time but wow...#every time i break out my sticker collection and see them im reminded of it. but i cant throw out the stickers theyre deltarune ones 😭#like they were a rly cool artist.... just unfortunate that happened 💀#the drama was insane. my ex only wanted to sleep with them but they (other person) wanted them to break up with me so they could date#but my ex dumped them rly harshly for suggesting that i guess 'romantic' cheating was a step too far even for them lmaooo#i heard abt their breakup secondhand and god could they be cruel sometimes. they made fun of the sex theyd had w them#to all their mutual friends n everything i actually felt so bad for the other person when i found out. at least our breakup wasnt that bad#i only finally got that cruel side of them directed towards me like a year after when they wanted us to stop being friends#but yeah. its also funny in a way bc my ex only suggested i had adhd bc the other person did too + struggled a lot with rsd#which i guess they found out when they broke up with them. and then looked at that and thought huh my gf is kind of similar...#and this was like. 2 years before i even considered i had adhd myself and sought diagnosis ahdkfidjcjdjfjfjfkdbfnf#this made me go look the other persons art page up on instagram + then i recognised some of their friends/flatmates art pages and i found#their (my exs that is) grad year film which is still being shown at animation festivals... good for them good for them#i dont think they have an art page themselves tho cuz they were always v shy and weird abt sharing art on social media#like everyone else except them is tagged on things... shame i wouldve liked to see what they were making now. even if we're not friends#also one of their old roommates made some REALLY similar squid game fanart to mine like a month after i posted it huh..#not mad abt it or anything i think its cool i just didnt realise they showed my art to their friends. thats cute#ah this was years ago anyway. getting my head out of the rabbit hole#im gonna go play some elden ring and then maybe do smth fun in my sketchbook we shall seeee#.diaries
