If you're ever looking to for my patterns, I have two shops!

Etsy and Ko-Fi

Doing my first serious embroidery and making a plush of my Warrior of Light from FFXIV. The face isn't perfect but I'm pretty happy with the progress so far. The pattern and tutorial are from PiyoPicco on YouTube.

Always have the Stardew Valley winter theme on loop in my head!

What game would you erase from your memory just to experience it for the first time again?

This one is kinda hard to answer because there are so many! I think overall though, I'd probably pick Undertale. I had such an incredible first playthrough.

I have come to the conclusion that I love this ink and pen combo. Ink is "Lady Grey" from Diamine (thank you /r fountainpens as always for these tasty ink ideas)

Not only does the ink match really nicely with my Sailor, it also is just really smooth and pleasant to write and sketch with.

I got my first Sailor today 😊 I love my TWSBI, Lamy, and Kaweco but I've always stared longingly at the Sailor fountain pens and then lamented at the price. I couldn't pass this one up though and with it releasing near my birthday, I took the plunge. Now I *have* to draw more traditional art lol

My first serious test with my new Wacom MovinkPad. Overall I enjoy the feel of using it. Clip Studio Debut has some limitations that feel kinda hindering after using the full version for years but it was not unlike drawing on a beefier version of Medibang. Now I just have to relearn how to do digital art 🫠

[kriketbatra]

Look! I remembered how to draw! Something quick and sketchy of my LaDs MC. She is a menace :)

[kriketbatra]

I was feeling guilty for spending like, $20 on LaDs to get my dragon daddy (I do pay for the AP but it's small so it doesn't trigger the guilt like any purchase over $10 does). Then I remembered my steam library full of games that I still have yet to touch and my guilt evaporated lol

[kriketbatra]

I made a new little cross stitch pattern for Halloween! Pretty quick to stitch up in an evening or two :) Links for both Etsy and Ko-fi:

I spent so long fixing things on this sketch, I'm not even sure if this looks like Sylus anymore. I need to practice drawing more guys.

[kriketbatra]

I needed to do a test painting and remember if I can paint at all lol

[kriketbatra]

This outfit gives me cute aggression 🥺

[kriketbatra]

Committing crimes against my fake Labubu. It's cute and I got the color I wanted but the face is so crooked! I'm afraid surgery is required.

[kriketbatra]

I forgot to update! Labubu surgery was a success and then I realized the ears are also crooked 😂 Oh well! Repainting was a little bit of a challenge because even with a base and sealing coat, the paint wanted to flake off.
