it’s that time of year again~ 🌸

#cardcaptor sakura #happy birthday sakura!!!

I drew Cyndaquil for @dotzines' Pokéjinka Dex zine series! this was an insanely fun project to work on :D I'm really excited that I get to share the finished pieces with you, but even more excited that you get to see all the other artists' pieces for it; the concepts everyone came up with for each Pokémon are SO fun and inventive, and it was really fun seeing each one come to life while we were working on this <3

the Pokéjinka zines can be downloaded for free here; they're also currently running a DTIYS mini-zine where you can submit your own drawings of the characters in the main zines, so if you're an artist then definitely check that out as well! again, thank you so much to @dotzines for having me, I had the time of my life working on this!

#pokejinka #dotzines #pokemon #yayyy I finally get to post this!!#I think I mentioned in the preview that we were each assigned a different pokémon #so it was actually a surprise which one you were going to get haha. anyway I'm really happy I got cyndaquil!#you guys know I love drawing glowy light effects and littol creatures hehe #since she's the first evolutionary level for the fire-type starter I was going for like. kidlit protagonist vibes? if that makes sense?#she's a little bit timid but she likes going on adventures in the woods around her house #the background in the main illo was really fun to do as well! I'm not as practiced at drawing conifers as deciduous trees #so I figured it'd be fun to try that here and I was right!!#I also had to actually go and buy a pair of yellow dungarees at one point because I made myself jealous haha #but anyway yeah the zine is FREE at the link above so go check it out! go go go

#pokejinka #dotzines #pokemon #yayyyy the zines are out!!!#we can post our pieces now so I’ll do that in a bit :D

preview of my piece for @dotzines' Pokéjinka zine! each of the artists in this zine was given a different Pokémon to base our characters on, and there is at least one for every Pokémon in the Kanto and Johto dexes. can you guess which one I got? :3c

the zine releases on February 20th (only 14 sleeps away!), and I cannot wait for you guys to see the whole thing; I had a ton of fun designing this little goober, and everyone else came up with the most amazing concepts for their characters, so definitely do check out their previews as well! :D

#pokejinka #dotzines #pokemon #as with the first time I worked with them: I have a TON to say about this #but I shall save it for when I can post the finished piece #until then I shall see you anon!

I am once again thinking about the Takarazuka version of Romeo et Juliette

(close-ups with and without background below the cut, because I am Not letting the design for Falin's shoes stay hidden behind that railing haha)

#farcille #heyyy first drawing I post this year is yuri! that has to be a good omen right #I’ve been ever so slightly obsessed with this musical for most of last year haha #what can I say. ‘early 2000s europop romeo and juliet feat. all-girl cast’ is a compelling premise if ever there was one #designing their outfits was SO fun though omigosh. I want to draw takarazuka outfits forever and ever #I put these two in the outfits that I thought they’d like wearing the most #but if we were to spin this out into an actual au then obviously FALIN would be the one facing down the prospect of an arranged marriage #and MARCILLE would be the one getting exiled for killing a man #on the plus side though: it probably wouldn’t end with them dying #because marcille would take one look at falin in the tomb and be like ‘oh would you look at the time. it’s necromancy o’clock’#… well now I’m just picturing senshi as friar lawrence doing an extended cooking-show sequence where he makes the sleeping potion #but anyway enough of that!! how are you friends!!!#I hope your 2026 is going well so far #I have mostly been very sleepy and stupid this year #but I have some things I’ve been working on that I’m excited to show you!#until then I shall see you anon!#and uh go look up a slime tutorial of romeo et juliette on youtube or something. it’s super pretty and the takarazuka version is very gay

little autumn farcille doodle I tidied up, since tonight’s the Cold Moon 🍂

#farcille #dungeon meshi #the outfits are very loosely based on a couple of fortune cookie outfits from pocket camp #I was IRRATIONALLY excited when I saw them. they were just so perfectly marcille and falin-core respectively haha #anyway how are you friends!! I’ve finally finished a kind of big project I’ve been working on this autumn #so I am free to draw silly shippy things again :D #been trying out a different way of drawing kissings here and I think it works better than what I was doing before?#might stick to it. if and when I feel like drawing kissings again #anyway. like I said tonight is the cold moon #which means today is the last day of autumn in my country #I’m not sure how to feel about that. I like winter very much but I feel like autumn went by too quickly #like. can I get maybe another week of autumn please and thank you #just to finish doing autumn things you know?#oh well. I’m excited to do winter things too so it works out anyway :)#anyway I shall see you anon! probably much sooner now that The Big Thing is done!

a Snufkin for spring 🌱

#moomin #cheeky little self-reblog in honour of yesterday’s news! ARE YOU EXCITED I AM EXCITED #also sorry for the radio silence on this blog lately!#I’ve been doing that thing again where you’re working on 85 different things at once and not actually finishing anything ;;;#ah well. I always find it easier to work when it isn’t summer so I’ll probably have something new for you soon!#in the meantime take care of yourselves. drink water. read books. fill moominvalley with crime #I shall see you anon!

guess who's been playing ace attorney again IT WAS ME

sometimes the real otp is you x the ship that altered your brain chemistry for a little while when you were 18

#justicykes #I have already talked about this at length on my other blog but I love their dynamic lots and lots and lots #the thing is: the writers could so easily just have made it a typical manic pixie dream girl dynamic #with apollo serving as the straight-laced sounding board for all athena’s eccentricities #but instead they made the wonderful WONDERFUL decision to just double down on the ways in which he was already equally unhinged himself #so instead you get two people who are comfortable enough around each other not to mask and are making that everyone else’s problem #they’re both manic pixie dream girls and the dream in question is the kind of dream you have if you eat cheese before bed #top tier ship honestly. nineteen hundred zillion out of ten no notes #also I’ve been testing out a new chibi style lately! do you like it!!#I’m trying for something a little bit more windwaker-y hehe #I’ll probably still stick to my usual style for bigger illustrations but this one’s really fun for short comics &c #anyway these two are SO fun to draw you guise. I want to draw them all the time forever #I like drawing polly’s stupid hair! I like giving thena her little dusting of freckles!#I REALLY like getting to play with more vibrant colours than usual #bc like my art usually uses a lot of earth tones. particularly greens #and by contrast apollo and athena both use much more summery palettes so that’s been really fun to mess around with #anyway these tags are getting way too long so I shall see you anon! possibly with more drawings of queer cartoon lawyers

unearthed some old Ralsei doodles, in honour of today’s news 🌟

#deltarune #ralsei #only 64 sleeps until chapters 3 and 4!!! ARE YOU EXCITED I AM EXCITED

a Snufkin for spring 🌱

#moomin #this is a bit fashionably late asdfghg I meant to post it on the actual equinox #but didn’t manage to get it done in time even though I started work on it last month #because at the start of this month I accidentally gave myself an electric shock (yes really!)#I was mostly fine but it kind of shoogled around the muscles in my dominant hand so I got like a temporary repetitive strain injury #it’s mostly better now but the doctor says I have to be careful not to overdo it still haha ;;;#but how are you friends!!! doing well I hope #don’t go giving yourselves electric shocks now mkay #always turn off sockets before you unplug them. that’s a safety tip from your pal al #anyway I shall see you anon! until then enjoy whichever season you’re currently entering #spring and autumn are the two best seasons so we’re all doing well for ourselves at the moment haha

found some some farcilles in my doodle folder that I still kinda like so here you go 💖 lesbian aragorn and arwen you will always be famous

#dungeon meshi #farcille #this may be the most self-indulgent thing I’ve ever drawn haha #how are you friends!! it’s winter where I am #which makes looking at marcille in that purple dress a bit surreal actually. I keep feeling bad that I didn’t give her a jumper haha #designing outfits for these two has been SO FUN though #bc you guys know I’m a nerd for medieval fashion #and falin’s specific sensory issues mean I get to take more inspiration from the earlier parts of the period #which is less represented in fantasy couture compared to like the late 14th and 15th centuries and that is a CRIIIIIME #(I could segue into a full essay here about how glad I am for the autism representation in this series)#(but I have already been discussing that at length on my regular blog all year haha)#(so instead I will just say GO WATCH DUNGEON MESHI if you haven’t already! go watch it again if you have! it’s so so so good you guise)

My finished piece for Dottolus' Dotnomicon: Grimoire of Wonders! I was going for kind of a folk-magicky vibe with my one, heh. The zine is available for FREE on itch.io at the above link, so definitely definitely check that out. The full list of artists and writers involved in the project can be found here; they've all done absolutely incredible work on this, and it's been super inspiring getting to see them all do their thing, so be sure to check them out too! Thank you again to @dotzines for having me, I had a really great time working on this and I'm so excited to see the end result!

#it’s dotzines’ 6-year anniversary today so I’m doing a cheeky little reblog of this hehe #it was so much fun to work on!! and I know I say this every time but everyone else’s pieces were fab as well #so yeah! many happy returns! and thank you again for having me <3

#zelda #echoes of wisdom #I still can't quite believe it's finally happening tbh! took ya long enough nintendo #anyway how are you!! sorry for the radio silence lately haha #my 7-year-old computer actually chose the week I was trying to finish my piece for the magic book zine to give up the ghost entirely #(luckily I just barely managed to coax it into hanging in there until after the deadline haha!)#so all my drawing lately has been like... experimenting to figure out how to use the newer versions of everything #I am old gandalf. I know I don't look it but I'm beginning to feel it #had a really good time drawing this though! playing around with new ways to do the light effects made me positively GIDDY #and zelda's design! I've seen people saying the game's visual design looks too simple but imo that's actually a good thing?#because the simpler the canon art style is the more creative input we have in our own interpretations of it #medieval tailoring is my special interest so my take on it is very loosely based on like mid-late 14th-century kirtles #as far as I know they didn't really have split skirts or that shade of purple back then but eh it's fantasy haha #I wasn't super clear on how the cloak fastens so I based it on the one frodo wears at the start of lord of the rings. you know the one #the outer edges have tabs at the top that sort of cross over each other and attach with brooches to the shoulders #I guess it's kind of like how marth and lucina's cloaks work?#but anyway I shall see you anon! hopefully before the game actually comes out haha #only 98 sleeps to go though! ARE YOU EXCITED BECAUSE I AM

Hey be sure to go to your blog settings, head down to visibility and turn on this little button that prevents Tumblr from stealing your posts and using it to train AI learning models. Good job, fuckheads, great update.

Reblogging this here as well as on my personal, because I know a lot of my followers on this blog are also artists. I think it’s absolutely vile that this is something you have to opt out of rather than into, and that Tumblr didn’t tell us they were doing this so everyone was opted in by default. This is also a direct violation of Tumblr’s own TOS, which claims that users retain copyright over any images they created and posted on Tumblr, so anyone whose artwork has been used by third parties without their knowledge or consent as a direct result of this decision does in fact have grounds to sue! Good job Tumblr, good job.

#anyway yeah go fix your settings if you haven’t already because YIKES

#magic book #oc #not fanart #this piece was SO FUN to work on you guise #you guys know I love drawing trees and just. working with greens in general #the flowers are all species that bloom in early autumn. some of them I hadn't drawn before so that was educational #the lighting was really fun to do too! candlelight can be tough to get right but swirling the colours around is too fun to be frustrating #the character is my oc serpentine btw! she's the oldest oc I have but I think this is the first time I've posted her here?#it's been nice revisiting that little nerd. I'd like to start working with her again more often #but anyway yeah! definitely go download the full zine and everyone else who worked on it! go go go

Preview of my piece for @dotzines' Magic Book zine! This was my first time working on a zine, and I couldn't have asked for a better one; everyone's come up with the most amazingly inventive ideas for it, and my own piece has been really fun to work on as well. The finished zine releases on the 14th, and I can't wait for you guys to see it!

#magic book #oc #not fanart #I have tons more to say about this one but it'll have to wait until I can show you the finished piece #this isn't the whole drawing btw! my piece is a comic so this is just the first panel minus the text #what kind of magic ritual will it be teaching you how to perform?
