My friends are going to a festival that I’m unable to go to, so I have whipped up a mini me that they’re going to bring in my stead. Hopefully he gets magnificently messed up!

behold! sockeye salmon

[thingofthemoment]

I’ve seen some people in the tags and whatnot requesting a pattern so I have made you a janky one on MS paint based on this salmon:

Each dot is a bead and these two sides are each side of the fish. When there’s only a thingy on one side it means you only make it once. The two green fins near the head of the fish are what helps it sit upright.

I’m struggling to explain the rest of the process in words so imma leave off here. Good luck and may your salmon be slammin.

I drew my parents’ dog as part of a holiday gift. He is bananas

[thingofthemoment]

nothing fancy but I doodled produce then labeled and colored them all

the fuff had to be contained in parentheses lest he eat everything and steal all the colors for his fur

Now that Gobtober is over I’m trying to figure out what to do next. I had a friend suggest Gnome-vember but idk if I have another month-long challenge in me. Maybe it’ll be time soon to get out the old sewing machine again and manufacture some weird creatures.
