a few days later, I've embroidered the majority of the back panel. i still want to add things like shooting stars, more details on the luna moth, more stars behind the ferns, etc, but here's what I've gotten done:
I've also sewn on a moth patch that my best friend gave me a while ago - I've finally found a place for it!
and I've turned one of the front pockets into a cute monster mouth, an idea that i got from a patch somebody showed on Pinterest. instead of just a patch, it's a functional pocket! the teeth didn't quite turn out how I'd hoped, but i can clean them up a bit later
i might add more details to give it more of a body, and not just a mouth with disembodied eyes. if you have any ideas, please comment or leave them in the tags!
the latest things i've added are a panel on the inside of my vest under the collar, and some stars on the ends of the hood strings, both using the same blue flannel i used for the pockets.
i'll continue updating as i work on it!
for about a week now I've been working on a DIY vest. it's not a battle vest, but i am taking inspiration from some of the patch ideas and maybe adding spikes
here's my process so far:
(EDITED with image descriptions - thanks for the reminder in the tags!!)
i dyed a pale blue vest with one full bottle of graphite synthetic dye. it's still sadly a little blue, but it's dark enough that it isn't super noticable, so I'll live. if you have any questions about the exact process, ill answer them in the comments!
i then added two regular pockets after seam ripping the fake ones - why do they even put fake pockets on these - and two inner pockets using the shape of the upper pocket as a guide. one of them is embroidered with quotes from a post by turboennui on here about Laika, the first dog in space sent from Russia
then i added a detachable hood taken from an old sweatshirt, which is attached to the vest via six buttons. i get anxious when i don't have a hood on my clothes, so if i don't wear this vest over a sweatshirt, i still have the option to have more comfort
yesterday, i planned out and began embroidering the back panel. it will be a detachable piece of black fabric from an old button up shirt, connected only with safety pins so i don't have to commit to a theme and instead have multiple artworks to swap out. this one is a few black ferns and a pale blue moth (type undecided) atop a starry night sky background
if you guys have any ideas of stuff to add or embroider, or tips for making a denim vest in general, comments are greatly appreciated! ill post another update once the vest is finished

an acrylic painting of a minotaur i did for the prompt "Cow". i had a lot of fun painting all the different textures! my favorite part is the highlights on the minotaurs hooves and eyes.
a painting i did for class for the prompt "superhero"
ART PROGRESS:
lineart improvement from September 2023 to March 2024 (6 month difference)
i used the same ink pen for both of these (Tombow black brush pen)
i have become more patient with my lineart, and while this isn't an exact comparison (straight geometric lines vs. curved organic lines), i do think my line work looks more smooth and precise. the hatching has also improved drastically as i allow myself more time to consider each line. lastly, I'm leaning more into line weight, using thin lines for shading and details, and thick lines for emphasis and parts of the drawing that are "closer" to the viewer
Sans sitting (image) and Sans walkcycle (gif, not laggy just low framerate)
the animation is very simple and was my first test of the Krita animation features! i dont animate much, because i dont have a lot of practice with it and im just not used to spending so much time on a piece. but lately i did a couple Undertale animations to try to get back into it and they were very fun!
also im super proud of the style i did for the drawing of him sitting. the lineart is chunky and solid, and the highlights overlap with it to give an almost painterly feel, like in the rib area
final painting in my art class, took about an hour and a half
Calling all Brits on this hellsite.
We all saw Elon Musk do the nazi salute at the Trump inauguration. We know that he is influencing and fanning the flames of right wing political parties.
And that very well may include ours.
Because Elon Musk has pledged to donate $100 million to the Reform party. He has since mentioned that it might be hard to give such a large sum now.
But I don’t think we should take our chances. And I think we can agree that letting billionaires influence our countries politics is a terrible idea.
If you also agree here’s a link to a Parliament petition.
It calls for the government to remove loopholes that allow wealthy foreign individuals to make donations into UK political parties (e.g. by funnelling through UK registered companies).
As it is a parliament petition the government are required to debate it in parliament. But for that to happen it needs to reach 100,000 signatures.
Non British folk I’m afraid you guys can’t sign but I encourage you guys to reblog so that more people can see this.
