General Updates:
Developed acute tendonitis in my hands, but recovering well. Art will be slow.
The Vigilstar fan comic is still in production, just set to the side for now while my hand recovers. Related posts: (1) (2)
Hello~ my cat got sick and I need some help covering some of his expenses. </3
So SELLOUT SKETCHES IT IS!!
These are meant to be sketches and not fully rendered pieces. Making them quicker and easier for me to do while I recover from tendonitis. I may be on the slow side to completing comms as to not overwork my hands, as a fair warning.
Here are some possible examples. Sketches, but cleaned up a tat bit (Sans with the dog would go through more cleanup, for example) .
There's not much of my old or current artwork here to get a feel of what my skill level is, so I'll add more of my older artwork for examples BELOW THE BREAK. They're not representative of the rendering I'll do for these commissions. Most of these are more polished.
Here is the butt in question (he's doing fine now, after a bunch of tests he probably has something neurological (focal seizures or pinched nerve), or something's going on with his muscles. We got him on some meds and will see how he responds to them)

Saw people were making these Hobbit door wreaths. I had most of the materials already and the creative drive to make them. Two different versions. Left one I gifted, and the right was commissioned.
Progress shots (mostly of the first one, but the progress was basically the same between the two) after break:
Materials used: thin plywood circle (for one), cardboard and jumbo popsicle sticks (for the other), pva glue, wall insulation foam, grape vines wreath (harvested and made myself), wire, sculpey polymer clay (for tree and door knobs), floral tape (to wrap around the wire tree branches), Woodland scenic flock (green tree), torn up pieces of sponge (for the silver/gold tree), bead (for door knobs), mod podge, cheep acrylic paint, two types of preserved moss, fake plants. Tea stained sketch paper, thin cotton twine.
Made my sister masks from the game Majora's Mask. First year I made Majora's mask, second year I made the Deku mask, the next year I made the Goron mask.
not so great photo (courtesy of my sister) of them all together so far on the wall.
Progress shots below break:
Materials used: My own pattern, but inspired by MasenkoProps' design on Etsy, 8mm(?) EVA foam, contact cement, tin foil, foam clay, wall compound, mod podge, cheep acrylic paint, and matte varnish. Hard work, dedication, blood sacrifice to the cold.
Materials used: Deku pattern by Much Props (I modified the pattern a bit, and sized it down, but it's pretty much the same), 8mm(?) EVA foam, 1mm (?) craft foam sheet (stuff you can get anywhere), contact cement, foam clay, wall compound, mod podge, cheep acrylic paint, and matte varnish. Sweat, tears, one Deku child's soul.
Few years ago, I made the Majora Mask from Majora's mask for my sister. It became a tradition the past three (soon to be four) Christmases to make her one of each of the major four masks from the game.
Materials used: Majora's mask pattern by KamuiCosplay (I sized it down to I think 75% the original pattern), 8mm(?) EVA foam, 5mm foam half dowel from Lumin's Workshop, 1mm (?) craft foam sheet (stuff you can get anywhere), contact cement, foam clay, wall compound, mod podge, cheep acrylic paint, and matte varnish. Hopes, dreams, one traveling musician's sanity?
My contribution to the Magma session hosted by @seirindono. I did the Ink, Sneasel, and coat-drowning Sans in the first image, and the Gaster in the fourth. Twas fun! It always feels a little clunky and awkward drawing in magma, but I loosened up as I went.
So it's been a week, and my hands, wrist and arms are still hurting/strained. So I can only conclude I got (hopefully) a minor case of acute tendonitis.... SIGH
SO this means I'm pretty much on hand bed rest for the foreseeable future. At least until it feels safe enough to start PT exercises, and limiting my drawing time to small increments. Last time I got tendonitis, it was a moderate case, so I'm hoping if I dont injure it further my recovery period will be weeks to months and not years.
Art is going to be slow going, and the comic I have planned is going to take much longer to complete than I was expecting (and I've been contemplating how I want to post it: whether one page at a time, in batches, or just wait until it's all complete, suggestions welcome).
Thanks to all who recently fallowed <3. It's frustrating I pretty much can't post anything new for you guys for a while, but there's really nothing I cant do about that.
Small update:
So good news is that I'm no longer experiencing any pain or straining feeling in either of my hands/arms. I have done some things that could be straining or hurt my hands, but so far so good, and typical everyday things are no issue. Exercises are going well.
Not really a surprise but drawing is still very iffy atm. Which makes sense since it was the activity that caused the injury. I'm going to continue to take it slow and easy. Prob work my way back through studies and art exercises. Sucks cuz i have things i want to draw but have to put it off T.T
Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things soon!
Have a good one!

I forgot it was Ink's birthday! Happy Birthday little guy.
Can't draw anything new while I rest my hand, but i had some Ink sketches from the comic. So more unintentional sneak peaks xD
He's had 10 years of creativity and still going strong! Chug! Chug! Chug!
Still chugging away at the comic, finally getting into a groove, but now my hand/wrist feel a bit strained so I gotta pause for a bit. I am NOT getting acute tendonitis again. No. It sucks. Take care of your hands fellow artist. It can take YEARS to fully heal. I JUST got back into drawing T.T
Anyway here's a bit of a panel that will be fairly tiny on the full page, so I thought I'd give a little teaser and close up since I'm happy with how this turned out.
I wanted to signal boost this situation. SpectroliteAAA, in the past known as WalkingMelonsAAA, is in serious need of help.
I have been extremely close with them since meeting them in 2017 (or 2018? A while!). Ten years I've known Spectrolite, and she is truly one of the most wonderful, kind, and talented people I have ever met. When money was tight on my end, or when life problems would come by way, she dropped everything and helped me through the worst of times. I, and everyone else who knows her, are genuinely, absolutely blessed to have had her in our lives.
This last year has been devastating for her. I have watched her go from financially secure, and thriving, to counting pennies to see if she could even afford food. We have had phone calls about her terror of being evicted, and it broke my heart to see someone I loved so much, hurting so badly.
I have the video here she posted on her youtube channel, and I also linked the GoFundMe. Below the keep reading line is information directly from the GoFundMe as well, describing the situation in full.
I know money is tight for everyone in this current hellscape, so if you can share, or post this around? I know she'd be grateful...!

Thank you all for being here.
Hello everyone, thank you so much for coming to our GoFundMe. Our names are Alyssa, and Sabrina. We are a queer couple, who need immediate financial aid so that we do not become evicted, and thus threaten our lives into homelessness. We are artists that run our own merchandise businesses, and with the launch of the tariffs and the economic impacts within the United States of America, our businesses completely collapsed in May 2025. We have fought ceaselessly all of last year to try and adapt and bounce back, but all of our efforts have completely failed... We began to fall behind on rent last November, and was keeping up just enough to get us this far. However, as of last month in February, all of our resources depleted, and we are sinking very fast.
--------------------------------------------
What happened.
We are one of many people who are grossly effected with the current conditions of the United States. We are being targeted negatively by our country for being queer, losing Human Rights, and the rise of false information to dehumanize us for being transgender, yet, that isn't even what put us in this situation at all! We have been surviving So Much that we can't even stress about our freedoms being threatened. Our lives were completely destroyed over night do to Trump's decisions impacting the economy and thus our businesses, particularly with the start of the Tariffs. It has been downhill since.
These are our pools of income as with its history to illustrate the fall of our livelihoods.
The drop across all platforms is daunting.
After 10 years of making art our profession as independents, we understand how to be flexible and adaptable with ever changing business strategies, economic climates, trends, outreach, marketability etc. Having one pool of income falling through, is something we've experienced and have always managed to adapt too. Usually that is at the fault of the platform, or covid taking in-person conventions away. However, with every source of income both online and in-person, being not just down, but totally slashed to the degree that is being shown, it is clearly evident that these are impacts of the overarching economy that have no hint of leaving any time soon. It's especially evident, because we travel all over the country visiting many States to sell at conventions, and it is every single State, that is 60%-90% down on profits.
With inflation, and a corporate/capitalist rise in Art/Pop Culture Conventions, table costs to these events are becoming so expensive that we have lost the majority of our tour schedule. Last year we barley survived because we had 10 conventions, while this year for 2026, we were only able to keep 3... We cannot afford to renew tables that now cost $500-$1500+, when we made $1200 gross income at that convention. We cannot afford to fly to conventions because of the cost of flights are so high. Product both domestic because of inflation, and international outsourcing because of the trade war, have become so expensive that we cannot afford restock. Nor can we afford a sustainable quantity of inventory for new product to secure future income. Raising prices for our product to compensate for inflation, only brings lesser sales as well...
Alyssa has applied to 78 jobs, and Sabrina has applied to just as many, and yet we CANNOT find even an entry level position!... So many weeks and hours looking for such a solution, has thus far only proven to be a complete waste of time. Now with the debt so out of hand, getting a job well over minimum wage wouldn't even be enough to save us if one of us were hired a month ago! Doordashing where we live to find an immediate source of income, cannot keep us afloat either for the time it takes to make as little as $80 at peak times of the day. Alyssa tried opening commissions, but not only is it not sustainable, but her mental health has been so shot under all this stress, that Alyssa cannot accept anymore commissions. We jumped on doing our taxes Feb, and gave our tax information to our specialist March 5th, but we still have yet to receive our tax returns to apply for any kind of governmental assistance for financial aid or economic relief. Clearly, we cannot wait for either our tax specialist to finish our returns, nor the time of the application period on the State of Oregon to give us anything if we get approved.
Living like this with having no idea when/if it would end, we drained our savings, and maxed all our credit cards, hoping we'd bounce back to recovery! but things have only gotten worse, and after a year of fighting, we now have nothing left...
--------------------------------------------
What we need, and what to do.
Since May 2025, we believed perhaps this would be a rough patch that would turn around in a few months with some extra effort to adapt, so we did our best to try and fight for our 4 year rental lease. However, this has proven to become just our foreseeable future, and we cannot stay in our current rental. It is eating us alive. Every day has been a race against the clock anticipating next month's rent of $2700, and that is a ton of money when you aren't making nearly anything at all.
We moved into a TownHome March 2025 with the income we had prior to May 2025. We had the faith of a successful business that has proven stable and dependable for the last 10 years, even through the Covid Shutdown in 2020. Then just two months after moving into a place that was below our means, our rental suddenly became scarily WAY above our means. Everything we had worked so hard to achieve, was taken away instantly, immediately putting us in survival mode practically over night. We cannot stay in this rental. We must pay our debt, break the lease, and get out before our rental history is destroyed with an eviction. It is unsustainable, and with two months behind on rent, and a third around the corner, we can't make money to recover to pay that debt, ontop of breaking the lease, ourselves. This isn't even the money we technically need in addition, to find a new place to live after... We are in serious need of big help.
As is so common to the queer experience, Alyssa does not have any family to reach out too for help, aside from one charished member, her younger Sister with her inner family of 4 kids. Sabrina has some family, but they too are horribly effected by the economic state of our country and is barley surviving with little to give. Our chosen family with our friends and partners are in a similar position. We humbly approach anyone here willing to throw anything to help save us from homelessness, or spread the word on any platform or via word of mouth, to restart our lives in a small apartment that we can live in under these circumstances. We truly have nowhere else to turn, this GoFundMe is our last resort...
We are currently behind on rent by $5,268. In exactly a week from today starting April, it will become $7,968. Oh my...! That means, to get out, we need like... $10,000... to pay the debt, and break the lease. We are offering our deposit to the landlord, but that doesn't change the ridiculous amount of money we need to get ourselves out of this situation.
Just finished the thumbnails of a *checks notes* 18 page comic (jesus why did I do this to myself) staring Vigilstar's Ink, from @askvigilstars
Here are some of my fav out of context faces of Ink I drew.
Pretty sure there are things that won't align with Tyma's canon (We still dont know everything about these guys or how events unfolded, so par-for-the-course), but that's okay. ;)
Also the first comic of any significant length I've done. I'm pulling from my many Many MANY MANY years of reading webcomics and webtoons, and everything I've picked up watching others make their pages on streams. Hope it serves me well. Pretty proud of how the thumbnails and pacing turned out so that's a good start!
Plan to release batches in 3 parts, but we'll see!
Now I gotta go... do the rest of the process... Wish me luck!! <3
heyo, chipping away at this slowly but surely. Always been on the slow side of making art, but I've also been hit with a heavy wave of the big sads, low energy and migraines the last week or so. SO production has been low. Atm just working through sketching the first 5 pages. That's it. Just a small progress report.
