Honestly, the concepts from G-Force / Battle of the Planets / Science Ninja Team Gatchaman - and I mean the originals, not the shit from the movie where they stripped all the colour out of their designs. Or the 94 version with the nonsensical squiggle wing cloaks. These blew my mind as a kid.

Just because your brain says you're a bad artist doesn't mean you are. Brains are tricky and like to talk us out of doing important things when it feels scared, tired, or frustrated. Next time your brain tries to make you doubt your effort, ask yourself: What am I actually feeling?

I am contractually obligated to tell you that "A Person" by @sparkbird.bsky.social and "In the Summertime" by Mungo Jerry would mash up rather well. You know what to do, internet. (The keys are different fyi, pretty sure In the Summertime = E major, and A Person = Bb major?) Hehehehehehehehehe

haven't done a #selfportrait in a long time, so here's a sleep deprived sketch of myself, kinda sorta. (i don't actually know what i look like, faceblindness is weird.) #art #digitalart #illustration i guess #sketch or something lol

a digital painting of a red haired weirdo with glasses. they wear black, and have accents of teal, magenta and bright blue in the dark parks of their hair. the background is simple and white, very sketchy whoa.

Quietly longing for a sequel to, “The Map and the Territory.” The best work of fiction I’ve ever read, right with my close second, “This is How You Lose the Time War.” I wish I had more time for reading and writing. (My own novels are continuing to stagnate, aaaa.)

Not my cat waking me up at 1030 this morning yelling at the top of her lungs for reasons utterly unbeknownst to me? (Yes, my desk is a door.) What do you WANT, cat!? And why do you want it this early!?

A tiny Siamese mix with blue eyes and grey striped points stares at the viewer. Who knows what her thoughts are. She extends one paw forward off of a hello kitty blanket folded into an impromptu cat bed.

turn blue even if you are stained with blood turn blue (background #illustration for a chart of #awairo’s “blue moon” I wrote this week) #cw:blood #ddr #art #anime

An image of a blue haired feminine figure from the chest up. She stands in front of a full moon with her hands raised. One hand draws blood from the air, which surrounds her in a ring and goes to her other hand. The other hand holds a stylus, where the blood turns to blue paint. She wears earrings; one is a stylized black hole, and one is a full moon. She also has a crescent moon choker. Streaks of rainbow light descend from the top of the image. Her expression is reserved, yet quietly defiant. This image was created based on a song called “blue moon” by awairo.

A very smol Siamese tabby mix sprawls across the left hand side of a blue framed Keychron Q10 Alice 75% with Gateron Smoothies and Momoka Pixel Wave keycaps, the violet and pink light of the backlit keys reflecting on her chest and face. The cat despite being aslee, looks very pleased with herself, one paw resting on a pink gummy wrist rest. She wears a pink collar with a moon charm and her name is Moondust, aka Erhiss Meowrn.

An illustration of an Awoken from Destiny 2, a feminine humanoid with glowing amber eyes and dark hair. She is wearing a red coat with white accents and a high-necked grey under armour shirt that crosses over itself. Her expression is humourless and serious.

Tassarion Windsinger, of House Windsinger in Cormyr. Wizard-Cleric of Oghma, uses a lamp-post as a staff. Dry, sad, wet cat creature (Winter Eladrin.) Just a little birthday treat for myself for a D&D game. :) #d&d #oc #illustration #art

Tassarion Windsinger is a winter Eladrin with pale blue, pink tinged skin. They wear embroidered silver robes and have frost patterns beneath their cheekbones. Their black hair is tied in a french braid that hangs to their knees, and they carry an ornate lamp-post as a casting focus. They have deep violet eyes and wear a somber expression. A single scroll charm on a silver chain is their only jewelry, other than a smoky quartz earring.

a loosely painted digital art landscape of a crescent shaped portal-like thing against a backdrop of water, clouds, and broken similar portals. the palette is subdued and desaturated, save for the focal point on the central portal, which has bits of bright green and orange gathered in the grass around the foot of the structure.

I am alive, just very very busy. As a little treat, here’s a custom background for a dance game chart I collaborated with @forcednature.bsky.social on. :) I had fun making this; I think kid me would be happy I draw anime sometimes. #art #anime #retro sorta

A 90s style anime picture with desaturated stylistic colouring of two people standing against a window with a background of a city at night. One of the individuals is an elf with dark teal hair and red round sunglasses, they are wearing a dress shirt, tie and vest. The other is a soft, friendly looking person with brown eyes, glasses, and fluffy dark hair. They are wearing a pale teal hoodie and star earrings. The text on the image is in Japanese, but beneath is subtitled “sentimental summer, nhato feat kanae asaba. This and chart were created for the triple cross 2026 summer contest. Both figures are rimmed in gold light from the background

Do any other artists feel like people only tolerate us because we make them stuff, but when it comes to like… actually talking to us and messaging first, that pretty much …doesn’t happen? I get people are busy and the world is on fire but sometimes it makes me wonder if it’s worth the effort.

That’s better. The plastic cone was compressing her whiskers and making it hard for her to move. This keeps her from messing with her incision, but doesn’t squish her whiskers or get caught on things. Treats and cuddles given, pain pill snuck into a snack, and she’s all tuckered out. <3

A tiny Siamese tabby mix naps on a hello kitty blanket, with a rainy scene behind her in the window. She is wearing a plushie flower collar to keep her from messing with her surgery site after being spayed. The cat is sound asleep, her head pillowed in the flower.

Thank you to all of you who commissioned me to help out with Moondust (my cat)’s vet care. She hates the cone, but had an uneventful surgery and is back home and receiving gentle cuddles. Tomorrow we’ll finish the last of those portraits but tonight, we rest. Tax tax from a few days ago. <3

A tiny Siamese tabby mix basks in the sunlight behind a monitor. Her eyes are closed and she looks very content.
