A light grey, dog-like creature with folded ears floating against a dull blue background. He has his right hand in the pocket of his dark grey hoodie. He is wearing a necklace that looks like it has a snowflake in the pendant.

A drawing on paper with colored pencil. It depicts a pink, cat-like creature with X's for eyes, sharp black teeth, and a long lizard-like tail. It's floating with its front legs loosely outstretched.

i don't really post my pencil art it brings out all the flaws i can hide better with digital my shaky hands, my warped perspective could anyone love something so imperfect? can you learn to?
A pencil drawing, colorless aside from blue highlights. A bipedal animal stands at a railroad crossing holding an umbrella in the rain. The crossing gate is down with the lights flashing blue. The text reads: "Didn't you see the news today? I heard they said it looked like rain"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOWLBY!!!!!! 🎉🩵 i'm glad i got to know you better over this past year ^^ i hope you have a wonderful birthday and a great year! @cerealbowlby.bsky.social
An image split in two by a blue, starry background and a red background of code.

On the blue side, Bowlby is floating holding his trusty DSi. He's looking at The Guardian beside him, who's holding his shoulder reassuringly. The Guardian is gripping a root of the Elder Negative to prevent its spread, with his tail trying to nip at it.

On the red side J.A. Staff floats upside down, appearing to be falling alongside Fuzz, who appears more scratchy like a drawing. Fuzz has a smug grin on their face.

my character for #GreatestBlade! i wasn't expecting to join, but i had such a vivid idea of this guy that i had to enter haha #OCEvent #OC #Art #DigitalArt
Dan Doughty, a brown anthropomorphic creature resembling something like a dog or bear. He's wearing a brown apron and warm winter wear. He looks cautious, holding a chef's knife in front of him.

The text reads:

Nicknames: Dan, Danny
(it's not short for Daniel)
Identity: Male (he/they)
Age: 23 (young adult)
Height: 5'8" (to head) 6'0" (to ears)
Occupation: he's trying!!

A relatively fresh culinary graduate who, despite praise for his cooking, can't seem to land himself a job "in the big leagues" due to his subpar knife skills. They're a gentle giant (for his species, at least) with a passion for their craft, but he's a bit shy in social interactions that don't involve cooking

What a guy like him is doing here, armed with nothing more than his trusty chef's knife, is a mystery to most competitors

He has a vague idea of how to wield a weapon from his favorite games and shows, but otherwise has no idea what they're doing

Their abilities match a human's. He's somewhat strong due to his bulk and has great reflexes from his schooling, but is otherwise unremarkable

Memento ("Mimi"), an ordinary chef's knife. His sidekick in the kitchen!

A gift from his parents for getting into culinary school, this knife was custom made to fit perfectly in his big hands. Well crafted, sturdy, and lovingly maintained, 5 years later it still looks new and cuts beautifully! Through tough times it reminds him of those he loves and love him, that he has a place in his passion, and that a Doughty never gives up. It resembles a german style chef's knife

obligatory hyperfixation mention, but anyone here remember flipnote hatena? animated ENTIRELY within flipnote studio for the dsi, The June Archive is a digital horror that follows a team restoring unusual flipnotes from after the servers shut down. our old creations are alive, trapped in the past.

this has occurred a bizarre number of times in the past 2 years alone
canon character will often:
-be trapped in some manner, often depicted as inside a screen
-share familiarity with something generally regarded positively, often fondly. they invert this
-have conflict with someone on the outside, often the one who created them in some way
(creator, player, etc...this often also extends to others who are dealing with them now)
-have emotional issues, often having outbursts and being manipulative
-tend to choose nuclear options to achieve their goals
-have a long running history leading to the point the audience meets them, often as the antagonist

what i do to them:
-stick them with a character (canon or not) that compliments but diverges in an important way
(this highlights the flaws in the character, sometimes both characters!!)
(sometimes the story itself does this, love that)
-explore the emotional aspects of the character. what led to this point? what was the catalyst?
(admittedly i often have to infer or headcanon this myself as canon wont directly show this)
-is there a way to help them? could you try? how would that end?
(often i explore multiple avenues! this never resolves cleanly. often these alternate scenarios end
in tragedy, such as realizing too late or falling back into old habits.)
(i also often end up with an AU that's basically "character is trapped in a new way with the other
character in control of the situation and it's very funny to me. this somehow partially resolves the issue.")
-would changing the circumstances change how they are? how their story ends?
(this often for some reason starts as a joke AU but ends up becoming really sad)
(like one only changed one character's outlook and it FLIPPED the dynamic to highlighting the other guy's
flaws which ultimately lead to a bittersweet end...like here? something bad was gonna happen regardless!)
-i always end up wanting to hug them for some reason. either because i feel they need it and/or it'd piss them off

Some of my favorite pieces from throughout the year! A lot of it is other people's characters, but I do tend to put more into gift art haha #ArtSummary #ArtSummary2025 Here's to a kinder 2026!!
A collage of artwork from each month of 2025.
January and February have painted pieces, March has a modified Flipnote thumbnail expressing pride in learning the internal code to pull that off, April and May have lined pieces with soft colors. June through August have character pieces drawn in Flipnote. September through December feature more painted pieces, notably more detailed than January & February's.

jark :] (+ headcanons!)
An illustration of a tall grey alien in a lab coat, black glasses/goggles, and boots. He has white hair that resembles something like a mullet...maybe. He's looking a bit uneasily to the right, showing his sharp teeth. He has his left hand on his hip and his right hand loosely open chest-height, showing that his fingers end in clawed points.

The doodles on the right portray tendril-like arms with longer claws sprouting from his side and back from slits in his coat.

The text reads:
Strategically placed slits in coat to allow his extra arms to come out
1 on either side 2 on back
Extra arms seemingly lack structure and appear "noodly"... boneless?
