Hi!

Welcome to my blog!! I’m a furry artist and I mainly focus on drawing my OC content. If you like what you see then feel free to stick around :]

I'm also active on a bunch of other places, all the links to those can be found on my carrd!

Some tags I use for my posts:

#my art - Self explanatory

#my oc - Also self explanatory, though additionally, all OCs have been tagged with their name using the format of #oc:<name> so if you see someone you like you can check for more relevant posts of them if I have any

#thoughts - The thoughts I have that I dump here

#reblogs - Just the things I have reblogged

That's all for now, thanks for visiting!! :]

Apparently I'm on a hot streak of making drawings I seriously don't like!

It's not that this one's lazily done like last time but it's the art style that didn't fit and made the character look like a completely different person somehow??? Like howww did we get here and who is that

Yesterday I maked my magnup opus, today I did nothing tomorrow... it's anythingn coudl happen

[buckets-thought-dump]

I locked in so hard today and all I got out of it was the most "yep that's a prototype" looking ass project of all time

If I make art that I kinda don't like but spent 6 hours on, what do I doooooooo?????

[buckets-thought-dump]

You know what, here is the art I made with the unignorable context that I have spent a lot of time on it and I don't really like it

There are elements I do like! I do quite enjoy the warm tones in his fur, the funky colours of his weird jacket and I specifically wanted to experiment/practise with line weight a bunch, and I wanted to try to make Creature MUCH fluffier so I enjoy that the fluff around his head makes it look like he has a big mane of some kind. And in general I like that it came out looking pretty clean overall.

For everything else I'm not gonna name what I don't like about it you'll just have to guess

I just woke up from a dream where I think I was doing some road trip with a rag tag group of guys one of which being a horse we loved very much and after a small flood in a town we visited we almost lost the horse but he came back and we were so relieved we hugged him so nicely that he started talking and we were like "dude. You could talk the whole time?? Why didn't you say anything before" And I honestly don't remember what he said

Anyway we then visited some town that was made of pixel art but it was in 3d so I'd like to call it voxel art but no it was more like you took a 2D sprite and increased the depth by a flat amount and did nothing else, so it was kind of cool to see but man should've just been pixel art. And then we had an AWESOME PARTY

Anyway then we had to drive back to the big city in a Mario Kart World style intermission track and I fell off several times to the point a bunch of people in a helicopter had to come pick me up like "do you need some help? You are participating in this race right?" And I was like "Yes I am!!!! I just got fucked over by a million items!!! And now I honestly don't know where I'm supposed to be going because I can't follow the crowd"

Anyway then a bunch of shrimps were in danger-

Note: Shrimps in this universe refers to a type of sentient bug-like creature that can fly around in the air and are only vaguely shrimp shaped. I think dream me forgot what a shrimp was.

Ok so the shrimps were in danger because people in the city were racist at the shrimps because they're so small and could be literally swarming you if they wanted to which is scarey to them so they didn't consider them people.

Now APPARENTLY I had a shrimp named Shrimpy with me the whole time that I took good care of going into the city so when I got there all the shrimps were like "omg you saved our beloved Shrimpy" and then all the shrimps came together to form one big shrimp person shape and we could hug it out!! I almost solved shrimp racism until people freaked out at seeing all those shrimps and started shooting at them and stomping on them so we had to evacuate the shrimps.

After that there was a bit of a time skip. The shrimps were safe, and I wanted to visit one of my friends I made on the road trip so I went up to his apartment in the city, rode the elevator up one floor (lol) and then apparently his apartment actually turned into a classroom and class was in session so I could only peek through the open door before swiftly walking away because it would be awkward to disturb a class I'm not in! Plus I was a local celebrity because I saved the shrimp population so it's better that I left because if anyone recognised me I would get swarmed by people because of how awesome I was.

Anyway once I left I had to go help out Shrimpy because they (I never ended up figuring out their gender) had made a deal with some sketchy guy to make a soap brand for them using themselves as a core ingredient. So when we got there Shrimpy was basically put into a blender without the blades at the bottom and we were like "Ok Shrimpy are you suuure about this?" And because the shrimps can't actually speak they're just sentient like people they nodded and we hesitantly turned on the blender and it very quickly turned into a pink bottle of soap right there and then! And the entire substance was opaque so I was like "omg Shrimpy!!! Are you okay??? Where are you????" And luckily Shrimpy emerged from the top of the bottle and the soap was a success. Then we did it a second time and it didn't go as well because there wasn't any proper safety glass in place because like I said the guy helping us was shady. Anyway the blender broke and I thought Shrimpy died again but THEY EMERGED from the liquid and I checked up on them like "omg Shrimpy are you alright? Do you need anything? Are you hungry maybe" and Shrimpy shook their head and then I asked "Should we take a break?" knowing Shrimpy was on my finger just shaking, and they nodded so then we stopped making soap because it traumatised Shrimpy

I don't think I've ever said anything about this on my blog before but I'm extremely normal about ghosts. I would love to explain my thoughts on why I think they're so cool but I'm actively struggling to think of words, it's just the vibes. It's the intangibility, flight, they're often implied to be scary which I love even if they're not actively scary, the fact they're usually dead also implies some kind of tragedy that may go untold in ghost character designs...

I DON'T KNOWWW I DON'T KNOW does anyone get me?????? I just need to have this be known

New Linux thread for new distro. Today I'm trying out Kubuntu (Ubuntu + KDE, I need something Ubuntu based for my drawing tablet drivers and I want KDE)

I know I'm only on the demo version right now but DAMN it's using like no RAM???? That's crazy impressive

For reference my windows setup seems to constantly use like 7-8 GB of RAM, and Pop!_OS used about 5, so this looks insane to me

[buckets-thought-dump]

I think I did something wrong

I was literally just adjusting the desktop theme lmao

Everything else was running very smoothly right up until now

[buckets-thought-dump]

Ok it has frozen on me twice now idk why I feel like I'm doing very basic things

Maybe it's a better idea to just install it and have it run normally

[buckets-thought-dump]

Wow having Pop already installed made it so easy to just overwrite!! So awesome

[buckets-thought-dump]

Ok so having messed with it for a while, I really like it so far! But it has once again frozen on me which might have something to do with my nvidia drivers (either not being installed yet or Linux just outright not liking nvidia) but I don't know yet

[buckets-thought-dump]

After using Kubuntu for a day I can say

Yayyy yippeee this is nice :]

It's not perfect but I wasn't expecting it to be, it does enable SO much more freedom in terms of the customisation I want. There's still some things I haven't gotten quite working but I haven't really bothered since I'm not sure if I'll be committing to this but mannnn this is such a MASSIVE improvement over Windows. It's also incredibly fast!!! And after I got the nvidia drivers working it also hasn't crashed on me again which gives me confidence this is a very stable version.

BIG downsides however, I can't seem to use my external hard drive despite it being formatted like NTFS which I think it should be able to read but it doesn't. There's also an issue with colours being not very vibrant because I can't set nvidia's digital vibrance here, and I also haven't gotten CSP working yet. Performance in Minecraft seems a bit mixed as well, as well as some other minor issues that don't seem very fixable.

And of course the massive drawback that if I did get everything working as it should, then I need to spend a lot of time moving all my files around which is tedious since I already got everything working on Windows, and with my external hard drive not being recognised I feel like this might be an impossible task regardless.

So overall: great experience, unfortunately still some big drawbacks for me. Learned a lot as always, but I might need to stick with windows as much as I kinda just don't want to
