I finally finished my embellished hanging display setup for @soengery.bsky.social ‘s plaque!! I love them, they’re so friend shaped
A painted wood plaque cut out in the shape of a many-armed bat creature. Plaque is suspended by beaded string with tiny skulls, crowns, stars, red droplets, and black moths. A black stone hexagonal pendant hangs from the base. The background is a white wall.

It’s that time again for me to share random wips of ocs (mostly k) and then go lay in a corner
Line drawing of k (a monster oc) making a k pop heart sign with their hand A line drawing of k (a monster oc) casually drinking boba and wearing a shirt that says “I heart my tiny wife”. Beside them is ret, who is half their height and upset. Shes got a messy side braid and is a human oc. She’s surrounded by speech bubbles that say “omfg” “k!!” “Look!” “At!” “Me!” “Fuck” “k!!!” “Pay attention!” “I’m mad at you!!” A line drawing of a cat playfully curled up on his side and eyeing the viewer while surrounded by various flowersA line drawing of a two panel comic featuring k (a monster oc) and ret (a human oc with a messy side braid) in the first panel ret is speaking into a microphone while k looms beside her. Ret: “hey k? The public wants to know: how are u such a baddie?” In the second panel k bends to speak into the microphone ret extends toward them, their dialogue bubble is distorted. K: “I do a lot of murder”

Faux-old poster with fold marks. Postal Mascot Mr. Zip holds up a letter. Text reads: The Post Office is a SERVICE not a business! (Just like the police and fire departments!) When they say it NEEDS to turn a profit... Tell them to GO FUCK THEMSELVES!

Your labor as an artist matters and you should be compensated fairly. Yes, I’m aware that publishers aren’t endless money machines, but there is great pay disparity between creators and if we want a more sustainable an equitable comics business, that has to change.

These ocs are different cos some of them are very old and I made videogame versions of them. But for other stories I have no idea what the main characters look like (so then I end up only drawing this cast. Oops)

Rook @rookmoth.bsky.social · 16/03/2026
I don’t usually like to describe characters physically too much. I can’t picture things in my mind very well and I kinda like people being able to decide for themselves

I drew the main characters of my story on a tiny piece of paper. K got Mike wazowski’d cos they’re too tall

It reminds me of recovering from tonsillectomy where if you don’t eat you may throw up but eating is so painful it feels impossible I know writing will help but I’m so rusty it hurts

Rook @rookmoth.bsky.social · 16/03/2026
I don’t find anything as fulfilling as writing but I’ve been struggling with grief and burnout so much it makes engaging with anything I love feel impossible. I haven’t been able to draw or write or read in months. Creating feels overwhelming and despairing and yet everything else feels meaningless

Rook @rookmoth.bsky.social · 16/03/2026
I am drawing more and writing more and I hope I can keep them longer this time

Goal for this year is to draw on a piece of paper larger than 8x8 for once (I keep defaulting to 3x5 because??? Idk???) I have larger paper I’m just afraid of it for some reason Maybe because it will force me to confront my nemesis

Please know that if u reply to one of my posts and I take 5ever to respond it is cos I am doing the social anxiety equivalent of coaxing myself out from under the bed by making pspsps sounds

If you’re at #eccc please don’t forget to come to the Basement! A lot of people seem to think there’s only Funko pops and long box comics and blind boxes, but they moved a bunch of indie artists down here too! Don’t miss out!!

In some ways they remind me of songs and rituals. I enjoy writing them for my own setting as like an exercise in worldbuilding

Rook @rookmoth.bsky.social · 01/02/2026
I like too that there are different preambles and ending lines depending on where the tale is from that signify the story is starting and the story is ending

Rook @rookmoth.bsky.social · 01/02/2026
Sitting here thinking about how fairytales follow patterns and feature a lot of repetition and I wonder if it is because it makes things easier to remember if the plot is basically the same action 3 times but with copper, silver, and then gold before something different happens and then cue moral

I used like five different inks to color them in this picture, like… just making them flat black doesn’t work, I have tried this, it just not satisfying and it is super hard to like avoid their form getting muddied

Korimor (they/them), the amorphous, evil, shadow monster love interest from my novel My hobbies are trying to draw them and also trying to draw them (deranged edition)
Drawing of a horned shadow monster with too many eyes and hands in the wrong places facing to the left. Character appears to be holding a hand of another character who is cropped out
