Attic camera strikes again

Attic camera test

So, I found an old camera in the attic (Canon 450D) and it works. And even 3 out of 4 lenses aren't dead from fungal growth inside. Obviously, the next step after figuring out the controls is taking photos of a cat!

This is Geralt, he is a 15-months-old maine coon of Polish descent (that's why I obviously had to call him Geralt). He's currently at 9kg/20lb weight and still growing.

Finally happy and proud about my office space. Spent most of Sunday mounting that Skadis board and LED lighting behind it, now my desk is wonderfully empty.

This is like closing a gestalt from my childhood when my only private space was my desk, and I was always punished for having it messy. And all I needed was an ADHD-friendly open storage. Oh well, being diagnosed in my late 30s explained a lot.

For all my fellow cross-stitch degenerates, the backstory

[zemerim]

Zagreus cross-stitch - final

AFTER 10 THOUSAND YEARS it's done.

Was started some time in summer of 2023, moved across the continent with me and waited until I got platinum of Hades II, but our boy Zag is finally finished. Definitely framing it.

Artist who made the original pixel-art - @timolech

The meander border took an *obscene* amount of time. Doesn't look like much, but I think it's more stitches than all of Zag -__-

Haha yeah it's been a couple decades since I last drawn the eye of David, my training is GONE. Good news that the new tablet is responsive enough to do pretty pleasant digital pencil, didn't expect that.

Gender-ambiguous lion cub person

I was trying out brushes and drew something *shrug*. I think they are cute

Trash Goblin

Some little doodle getting used to the new tablet

He may be small and cute but he'll stab you if you disrespect the king on cardboard throne

New tablet

I finally got a new tablet. It's 3 AM so I had just 10 minutes to doodle after I've installed everything, and woo, I'm pretty happy with it for now :3

Aaaanyways, any recommendations on CSP brush packs?

Hades II release (no spoilers)

Finally was able to finish the main plotline, so happy to be there. I did over a 100 hours and over a 100 nights in the early access, so it took me just a few evenings to get to the main ending. Though, same as H1, it is not the complete end of the story, there are multiple epilogues to pursue even if you're not an overachiever.

Weirdly, if I was made to choose which of the two games to play for another year of increasingly ridiculous runs, I'd pick H1. Zagreus is just a much more likeable protagonist than Melinoe, and I will die on this hill. But regardless, I'm happy H2 exists. Even though Melinoe is the beigest player character I've seen in a while.

Also, I am really annoyed they decided to stick with the original design of Melinoe. I feel that even my super mediocre skills as a character concept artist would be enough to improve her silhouette. Annoying. I might draw some alt versions in the future - same idea, better visuals.

Would be happy to get into heated discussions in the comments - give me your juicy opinions on gods, keepsakes, weapons, aspects, boons, overall mechanics, and love interests *cough-cough* mmmMMOrROS!! *cough-cough*

Rebecca from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, the best girl.

Apparently, it's next to impossible to take a photo of something drawn with fluorescent markers, ugh.

Alerion the Charismatic

Sooooo, I recently made up a name of an isekai anime that I would absolutely watch but it unfortunately doesn't exist, so I may or may not have to write and/or draw it. It is called

My Goddess Wanted an Overpowered Hero But I Put All Points In Charisma

So, after rolling it in my had for some time, I had to draw Alerion, the main character of GWOPH.

Clip Studio Paint, ~6 hours. The longest I was able to keep drawing the same picture in the past 5 years, yay!
