Bryn again

Pencil sketch, scanned and finished in clip studio paint.

A cool assignment from last semester where we had to design a city/town based on a description. We could also insert characters from a pre-existing IP. So I put in one of my Jedi OCs and a generic Sith. Made using blender with some paintover in clip studio paint, as always.

Photos from the second-alarm residential fire at 1177 Bathurst Street on September 29th, 2025.

Crews battled stubborn flames and smoke that extended into the walls and roof of this house. Eventually, they switched to a defensive strategy due to the structural integrity of the floors becoming compromised. This means they fought the fire from the outside, cutting holes in walls and roofs to access the confined spaces the fire had extended into. Eventually though, the fire was declared under control. No injuries were reported.

Sticker design

Sorry I haven’t posted in over a year. Here’s a fun sticker design I made. And a friendly reminder to go test your smoke alarms! And make sure you have enough of them in the first place!

People here might not be aware but over the past year and a half I have become involved with firebuffing. Basically, a firebuff is an enthusiast of firefighting who is not themselves a firefighter. For me (and many other fire buffs) this manifests as photography of firefighting and fire scenes, I’m considering posting some of that to tumblr. Might start a separate blog for it.

Bryn Redesign

Redesigned Bryn’s main adventuring outfit, adding some detail and introducing a flower petal motif into the leather garments. She has a quiver for storing arrows, (as she did before) but now also has leather leg armour for protecting her legs from abrasion when she climbs up rough tree trunks. Also designed her a casual outfit for relaxing evenings at her treehouse. I might make that cape IRL, it’s just too pretty not to. Also added wraps to stabilize her ankles and protect her feet from sharp branches. The cape is designed to be double lined, so it gives her the option of being warm when it gets chilly in the evenings (as it often does in forests, at least the ones I’ve been to) Also added her height for scale.

"Live Action" SWTOR ship: the Flashfire

Attempted to make another "live action"-style version of a ship from Star Wars: The Old Republic in Blender. This time it's the Flashfire scout ship from the Galactic Starfighter pvp gamemode. I decided to place it on the landing platform of the new Copero stronghold because of its beautiful scenery.

I even fully detailed the interior of the cockpit, which required a lot of "making stuff up" because the only way to see the interior of the ship in-game is by using the mount version of the ship, and that interior is not very detailed at all. I took inspiration from the aesthetics of X-Wing cockpit details for this.

The exterior remains pretty faithful to its in-game appearance, for the most part, but I did have to re-interpret a lot of details to bring the scale of it to a believable place. In some places that meant increasing the level of detail and making greeble parts with thinner shapes, and in some places that actually meant reducing the amount of detail and eliminating unnecessary panel lines that I feel wouldn't be in line with how ships appear in live-action Star Wars.

Texturing this baby was a lot of work, but I really wanted to make the surfaces feel real. I used directional smearing textures in the roughness and sheen weight channels, to create the appearance that the ship had been hurriedly cleaned off with a rag, but perhaps not very thoroughly, so the layers of grease and grime had just been smeared across the surface. This is especially visible in places where I added streaks of soot; I allowed the smear textures to influence the lighter layers of soot, but not in the darker places where it would have already built up since the last time the ship was cleaned.

I also created fully functional landing gear mechanisms, which are being demonstrated in the video. The cockpit canopy also has fully functional hydraulics but I didn't render an animation of them.

I encourage you all to zoom in on the beauty renders, (which I rendered in Blender's Cycles render engine) because there are a lot of details to take in.

I've also included a wireframe render so you can take a little peek behind the scenes.

Whipped this up in Blender today using in-game assets, except for the smoke and the flag hologram, which I made from scratch.

The final assignment in this semester’s illustration course. Really glad I got to do it with OCs. Had fun really dialling in the lighting and colours for this one. Background and police robot are mostly done in Blender (with some 2D paintover) whereas the two humans are fully 2D, using some 3D assets I built as reference.

A recent dipytch with my OC Bryn from a uni assignment! I am so glad I have such a cool prof who encourages me to develop my own story ideas (and calls my character designs "iconic," I am still giggling and kicking my feet from that) I created this with a mix of 2D and 3D techniques, using Blender and Clip Studio Paint. I won't reveal the whole story I have developed just yet, all in due time! I still have a lot of plot points to work out anyway.

[gyarutau]

i edited the original post but i'll also post her individually: made some lil changes to Tallulah's design! >:3 I think the red is a good look for her!

[gyarutau]

ok i like this design now. I'm also gonna do Missa as well as Chay and Lulah >:3

Your website would be nothing without trans women, Matt

[markscherz]

tumblrs being transphobic, with the ceo himself starting an actual harassment campaign against a transfem & also banning transfems who post abt it.

Oh shit, I had not heard about that.

I would like to say I don’t understand why this shit keeps happening, but I actually do understand it way too well. It just makes me so sad and angry. Especially on a site where people find and make their communities.

So much of this is about ego, and the people with power wielding that power to protect themselves and failing to protect others with it. A mere hint of negative sentiment towards them is harassment that is dealt with immediately and harshly, but a dozen complaints about discrimination or threats or bullying take ages to process and frequently come to unsatisfactory moderation decisions.

Whatever the sentiments of the people running this hellsite, you are always welcome in my corner of the internet, wherever you find it. You are all wonderful, and we all deserve to feel that part of this space belongs to us and those to whom we can connect.

Transphobia has no place on tumblr, period. Or anywhere else in society for that matter. It is that which should be being rooted out.
