I got busy so I didn't get to finish my Day 2 piece, but I will clean it up later. Anyway, here's my dinosaur alien character, K'ti L'Ara. I channeled some Ripley from the Alien series for her general vibe. #madscienceoctober #mixtengenetics

#MadScienceOctober Day 1: Mushroom I came up with a brand new OC for this prompt. I was mostly inspired by stinkhorns, but I also threw in some shelf fungus and inky cap slime for good measure. #monstergirl #halloween

I've been told that I'd make more sales if I had more fanart. Well... fine, but I like to make half human abominations so... Here's the meme lord vocaloid, Poteto! #vocaloid #teto #fanart

My most recent artist alley set up VS my first. I'm only a tiny bit more successful than I was when I started... but at least my setup looks cooler. I've also found people are more willing to buy from my kid than me. 😂😭

Here's my OCtober prompt list if anyone wants to play along! You can use your established OCs or make new ones. Oh, and you don't have to draw *everyday* if you don't have time. You can combine 3 prompts per week if that better fits your schedule! #madscienceoctober #mixtengenetics #ocs

I just paid for an artist alley table that was $145. I fully expect that I won't make $145. Why do I do this to myself?

I think I'm slowly going to move away from the Baldur's Gate livestreams. I want to finish Orkestra's story, but it just seems like people aren't as interested in the Brain Dead Bard as they were when I started. I blame the slowness of Act 3.

It's still a #wip for #wipwednesday because I'm not done shading. I named my Regidrago from Sword "Dragon Ball Z" so I decided to finally draw him!

Regidrago redesigned so the dragon head parts are based on Shenron from Dragon Ball Z and the body of Regidrago is a dragon ball.

I was told by a recent con coordinator that artists need to prove their art isn't AI... I found that insulting, but it did spur me to go back to making WIP posts on Wednesdays so... net positive? I'm not sure... #originalcharacter #steampunk #tomodachilife

Just a little practice with shadows. I think it came out pretty damn good. I need to do some more daily practice things like this. I'm bad about going all in on practice pieces rather than just trying new things.

My comic project is definitely feeling like something that is bigger than one person... But I don't know how to go about partnerships. The last person I paid to work on a four page update just disappeared after they got the cash. Sucks too, I waited a year and was talking and working with them.
