sorry for the absence - trying to recover/push past some burnout :,-0

some recent sketches

wahey oc print :^)!!

some context - but in Dec. 2014, I came up with these guys. So every December, I used to make anniversary illustrations. I stopped in 2019 due to university and lack of interest. But this past December marked the 10th anniversary so I really wanted to make another piece for the occasion <3

unintentionally created the same character concept for two separate stories I have (duel-wielding sword user + their wards with esoteric powers)

bonus:

trying to get out of my art funk feat. my boy

Really curious, but how do you do the coloring part in your artworks? It looks so juicy and nice. Especially interested in how you did it with the recent Enki sketch you made! (the one with blue, yellow, and many many more colors)

While I couldn't really explain the methods in a brief text post, I did make this vid to articulate my thought process!!

finished art :))

dudes from a story/comic idea ive had for an actual decade

dec 2024 + dec 2023

redraw from last year - tbh feels like a lateral move lol

What a strange year where it feels like nothing happened - but then I remember I graduated and have a degree and traveled a bunch and made a tiny bit of progress towards my career goals.

tbf tho the last few months haven't been the best. Adjusting to life outside of school plus application rejections and being physically far away from friends and just other stuff doesn't feel good lmao. Regardless, I'll try to keep chugging along. Even if every day I feel like throwing up. I'll try at least.

I'm grateful that yall like my stuff and are so kind <3
