Very Important Questions

Have you ever been hanging out with your friends, having fun at the beach when all of a sudden your mind conjures up a question about a stupidly specific, yet on second thought very strange aspect of your daily life? Hm? Oh, uh, Me neither, I guess.

Finally got this comic done after a month. I kinda hate the dialogue, but I spent this long making it and it seems a waste to just let it rot, so whatever.

At least it got me to draw up some nicer sketches of my characters and their families.

[curioptus]

Slightly older sketch of Ashleigh, Doreen and their father William. Also a small piece of a comic I really want to finish soon.

I don't give my own art and stories nearly enough attention.

Pokemon Pile-Up

Put together a drawing of my three of my favourite pokemon, who all feature in a small animation I've been putting off for a bit. Hopefully can get that done soon!

[curioptus]

Goodra as requested by @anduincubed!

Still making animations, just going a bit slower than I'd like. I don't like to vent but it's been kind of annoying trying to manage... well, everything, right now.

[curioptus]

Though it sometimes may not feel like it...

Someone said to draw Kit saying "Everything's going to be alright" so I decided to have some fun with it.

(I also included pawpads from her older design that Glitch showed off and Ross mentioned because I think they're neat.)

Kit Bodega eating a Kit Boburger.

Done as practice animating outside my own style. Expanded from a request by this youtube commenter:

'Yellow Paint'

Had an idea I wanted to get out after watching Gameoverse.

Kit Bouncing

A small animation I put together to celebrate the night before Gameoverse dropped!

It's pretty rushed but I really like the sketchy style I ended up with.

Beach Day

Started this in Australian summer. Now that it's transitioning into winter I finally took the time to finish it up as I've started wishing for warmer days.

I really wanted to do something a bit more dynamic than usual, and I feel like I succeeded well enough. Now if only I could just get these projects done in less than three months...

A poor neglected Vaporeon once again has to deal with her evil owner! How will she prevail?

This felt like the longest week of my life. Pretty happy with the final result!

[curioptus]

What could this curious creature be pondering?

A Slimegirl Deputy has trouble keeping hold of her hat!

A short little animation loop featuring my slimegirl deputy character that I started on in march for LoopDeLoop that I ended up finishing a month late.

Also! I made a pretty hectic promise on animation frequency for May on my twitter, hoping to have a lot more out this time around!

Background music is the extraction theme from the game “Far Far West”

Vaporeon Storyboards

A few storyboards from another vaporeon animation I'm working on.

[curioptus]

Trying something a little different to get better with digital painting. We'll see how it goes, but I'm really liking it so far!

[curioptus]

Here's another wip of the beach drawing I posted elsewhere for engagement. Still a bit early on, so plenty of time to draw up swimwear that doesn't look terrible!

[curioptus]

Sort of stumbled back into working on this thanks to that viral tweet about furry artists and human faces, which fun fact, Lewis in the back there has almost 20 different sketches of his face while I tried to make his face somewhat passable. In any case, it's nice feeling like I'm making progress again.

Also a version including the mostly hidden splashes.

[curioptus]

Here's the current progress of the animation made in stream! Very rough currently, and I need to mess around with the timing and posing a lot more, but I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Gonna be doing multiple streams as I work on it more, so that should be fun! Don't have a set schedule but I'm hoping for it to be relatively frequent!

[curioptus]

Had a sneaky stream today, got a little more done! Mostly just adjusted leg posing a bit attempting to bring the action down to a more casual movement. Kinda wish I got more done than just that, but I'm hoping to do a lot more the next time I stream!

Here's a bunch of outfit variations for my latest dnd character, Key the Kobold! Mainly focusing on what she normally wears and what she's wearing during the prison start of our campaign (I went with the potato sack).

Bonus maid variation from when I was putting off making the character sheet and Key's base. (Every variation was sent to the DM for consideration)
