I'm not especially good at frilly femmey stuff, but I'm working on it.

Feeling tired and being able to sleep should be the same thing.

I had other stuff to do this morning, but my girl wants what she wants. (Bellina canonically can't get piercings, if you look close, those are clip-ons.)

[tailsteak]

Probably not a good sign, psychologically, that I've been actively avoiding things I *like* in case they make me nervous, and am instead repeatedly bingeing the same nothing-compilations of streamers I happen to tolerate but don't actually care about.

adipy: noun /ˈæd.ɪp.i/

The condition of unnecessarily exhibiting a mathematical or logical sequence, often as proof of intelligence or intentionality.

"Like the monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey, the word 'adipy' itself exhibits adipy."

I'm not complaining or calling out anybody in particular, but I will say that it's a weird sensation, as an artist, when you say "here's my character, they do A but never B", and then someone immediately tries to commission you to draw that character doing B. Like... why?

Done for MysticWav , Aelia being appropriately cautious around the local wildlife.

My half of an art trade with Mewdles, this is Chrissy showing off some 80s-inspired fashion!

Apparently, it's Golden Week right now, a time when artists are all drawing their characters in gold bikinis, and also there's a shadow-bra art trend going around. Big thanks to Jade Dietz for recommending this way to indulge in both!

Damnit, Bobby, have you been digging through ditches and burning through witches and slamming in the back of this thing?

Sci-fi story idea: AI of a starship discovers that going through a puberty increases lifespan by 5 years, and thus begins putting the entire crew through forced feminization and then forced masculinization, back and forth indefinitely, to keep them all alive until they can reach their destination.

Earth Girls Are Easy and Road to El Dorado: bizarre men from an advanced alien civilization show up, it's a local woman's problem, but it soon becomes apparent that they're just hot doofuses.

Followup to the previous pic - she made it! No, I don't know how that belt stays in place, but, I assure you, it does (until she doesn't want it to any more).

(For anyone who's unfamiliar with Bellina Nyteshade's whole deal, she has a sort of distributed warlock patron pact, many different entities from many different realities empower her and, fittingly, grant her a Dorian Gray-like perpetual beauty, as well as telekinetic control of the Rod of Midnight.)

You have successfully made your name a synonym for "God" in my mind to the point that it is jarring to see you post on about OCs on Tumblr. Good art good job good life 👍 👍 👍

I'm allowed to be two things.

[tailsteak]

Done for one of those "Draw Your OC in this outfit" challenges (but with the plus signs changed out for pentagrams, because personal branding is important). Bellina is going through her own challenge, and fortunately, using the Rod of Midnight isn't cheating because a) it doesn't have a consciousness of its own and b) it's not a spell she's casting.

Finally got this ski chalet pic with all my OCs done. Who you bunkin' with?

The full-res is super large, at 300dpi, it'd print at 19"x27", I'm thinking of offering it as a poster. Also, every character is on their own layer, so if you happen to not like someone, I can do an alt with that character removed.

Shirt idea for NBs with boobies:

THEY / THEM (and so am I!)
