Speaking of the nonprofit, we did a fun little multi-artist post for Video Game Day! I did Splatoon 3 :]

(Side note: org is Childhood Cancer Society, it’s a nice organization! They do some great things for kiddos!)

oh lord navigating on a tablet is something else. I feel like I am 80 years old

“where is the write post button???” I cry amongst the sea of menus before I give up, close the tab, and then open tumblr again to get me back to the default screen

everyone say hello to Oliver!!

he is a little guy I adopted back in January! He was very unhappy at the shelter and would not let anyone near him and hissed at me at my first visit but he has become a big goober who loves to cuddle and make silly faces at me :) he’s even great with other people now and warms up super quick!

he came home with some behavioral problems but we have been working on his cat manners! he has also grown that beautiful mane that u see now, he was originally very short haired with a little bit of extra fur around his neck, but now he is a majestic little lion boy

HI HELLO

work got real busy, I adopted a cat whom I love but has been off the rails a little bit, my laptop is old and unreliable, also just have had a lot going on in general???

I was back on for like 2 weeks in December and then disappeared around when I got my cat and was in a perpetual cycle of “I need to check on my tumblr” until. now, basically

but! I’m in line for a possible promotion at work, I joined my first professional organization, and I’m taking my first business trip to a conference for early career Learning & Development professionals!

also I owe everyone cat pictures

got a tea advent calendar from my favorite tea shop, started off with a very cozy tea for a chilly day! Doesn't taste anything like horchata sadly, but very similar to genmaicha, a Japanese roasted rice tea!

Little friends.

The penguin figurines are out of stock right now but they'll come back soon. You can add yourself to a waitlist and get an email whenever they're in stock :)

since the splatfest is this weekend

if you play splatoon 3 (or just have a switch) i would be happy to exchange codes :]

[idontwantyourdanglemons]

HI HI HELLO

turns out i chose the worst possible timing to pop back onto tumblr!!! the past month and a half have been an absolute WHIRLWIND with moving into my apartment, some health stuff, and honestly a little bit of burnout

i'm slowly bouncing back! sorry for the impromptu break (again)!

mentioned to some folks in a discord server that i booted up my tumblr again and found the dash super busy, and the first thing they replied with was a recommendation for the dashboard unfucker. i'm so glad the web extension scene still exists to fight the wacky changes of the tumblr staff LOL

[idontwantyourdanglemons]

(apologies in advance if you also see this on toonscratch LOL)

hihihi long time no see!

I figured I'd boot up my tumblr again since I've been burned out on twitter for a long time now, and cleared out a lot of my follows so that this can mostly be a "reconnect with friends and maybe get back into posting art" zone

anyway! I graduated college with a degree in 3D animation last year, and now work at a local engineering firm in their Learning and Development department as a video editor/motion graphics artist/graphic designer/blah blah blah etc. I wear a lot of hats! I also do some volunteering as a graphic artist and animator for a children's charity

anywho, I hope everyone has been doing well! feel free to drop me a line if you want to say "hi!" :]

while on the topic of Lancer, i’m working with our GM (the aforementioned friend from back home) to design some of the NPCs from our campaign! 

This is Dangerous Lee, the pilot who carts around our Lancers and their mechs from mission to mission. I think they may have been meant to be a one-off NPC, but they’ve claimed a spot in all of our hearts with their lower-case, no-punctuation dialogue and chill personality. also Lee and Torsten are friends now and I live for it?? 

the description i got from the GM was basically these qualities: “Filipino Shaggy”, lanky, red jumpsuit with pushed-up sleeves, and eyes always covered by goggles or hair. needless to say, they were a ton of fun to design!
