i’ve been pretty much radio-silent on here for the past few weeks, so i thought i’d make a bulletin catching up with what i’ve been doing recently. i know i keep saying this, but i really do want to become more active on here. i’m just more active on toyhouse since that’s where most of my friends are lmfao

so here’s what’s been going on with me:

summer break

i’m officially on summer break now! which means i have a lot more time to draw & talk to friends

i’d say to expect more art from me bc of this, but knowing myself, i can’t promise anything lmfao

kinitopet collab

i joined the kinitopet collab hosted by glitchbuddy, and i didn’t know it was finished until literally a few minutes ago. and apparently it got 2nd place????????? im very proud of everyone who was involved!!!!!

go check it out if you haven’t already! and here’s my entry………. wink wink nudge nudge

working on my ocs & their universes

ive mentioned this a few times in the past i think, but lately i’ve been finally working on my own original characters, since i’m tired of being purely a fanartist. of course i had ocs growing up, but they’re all outdated and i don’t feel any connection to them anymore (plus, around the time i joined this site, i shifted focus towards purely fanart)

im tired of just doing fanart, so i thought i’d make my own little guys to annoy you guys with. i’m really excited to show them to you! i don’t know if i’ll be posting anything with them anytime soon, bc character design is time-consuming and i’ve barely even gotten their world written

i won’t spoil much, but i will say this as a sneak peek: post-apocalyptic robots

working on my art

i think i’ve mentioned this on my art thread, but i’m not very happy with the direction my art is going in atm. the artists i look up to & want to mimic have more painterly yet comic-like art styles if that makes sense? and they’re all story-driven. meanwhile, all of my art consists of just “fictional character i enjoy posing for the camera in a colorful void” lmfao

i’ve been working on tackling this problem as of recent, and trying to push my art into the direction i want. there’s a chance that the next time I post to this site, my art will look a bit different. i’m going to try to get experimental. i am not sorry lmfao

i’m also trying to get into the habit of figure drawing again. i need u guys to hold me personally accountable for that /hj

because i WILL forget lmfao (in fact, i have been forgetting)

artfight

almost forgot to add this one. i’ll be participating in artfight this year!!!!!!! im on team stardust >:D if ur going to be playing this year, u should def follow me………. magically compelling u………. altho i don’t have many characters uploaded there at all LMFAO

anyway, i don’t think i’ve done much of note other than that. ive discovered cool music, does that count. ive been getting into new things (COUGH COUGH phighting/regretevator, chainsaw man COUGH COUGH)

happy pride month btw! almost forgot to mention that. idk if i’ll be able to draw anything special for it but i’ll def try, even if it’s just a small little doodle. it’s the only month that i and other lgbtq+ people get to exist, and after june ends, i will fade away into mist

i will definitely be trying to check in here more and interacting in the forums. i love all of u guys <3 tysm for sticking with my dumbass and my self-indulgent art

edit: almost forgot to add. here’s some little doodles i did in a magma canvas with my friends recently, just to end this off and prove that i have been Doing Things lmfao
