I NEED #HELP I just randomly got frozen on #telegram. All my friends and notes for my book are there. Does anyone know how I can get unfrozen or create a new account? I already wrote multiple appeals to the spambot with no luck 😭 #needhelp

what a nice trend idea #artvsartist2025! oh boy did a lot happen this year. I finished my apprenticeship, took so many pitures of birds and other animals, started with (digital) aquarell art, went to my first real events, worked hard to resocialise... so so much happened that I'm greatfull for!

Made a new design with #XylendriaChronicles theme that I'm gonna use for a #phonecase. Printed version failed, pla and tpu don't mix, barely any color options and new filament required just for one case = I ordered one instead 😅 Anyway, Stay cozy, stay curious 🐾 #draeing #sketch #diy

The finished design I made to be printed. Ofc in xylendria Chronicles theme

A first try for printing my own case. It failed which lead me to the decision to just buy a premade one

I FORGOT ABOUT BSKY!!! Sorry for being absent recently — Literally forgot about bsk 😭 The knife has actually been finished a while baclk. Went great for a first try, but there’s room for improvement (see comment for more info ☺️). As always, Stay cozy, stay curious 🐾 #knifemaking #metalwork #knife

finished knife, my first try on making pattern welded steel!

For a first it really went well but there where quite a few hickups. Biggest one, damn that steel was hard to forge by hand. I supose the high manganese concentration made it very stiff, and therefore hard to stretch out. Damn, I would love to have a forgepress...

then I undercalculated the billet, and the knife turned out smaller, thinner and narrower then expected. But even so, I still love it!

Shadow1004 @shadow1004.bsky.social · 26/07/2025

it has started! welded up my blanks ad forge welded them. Sadly the big hammar hasnt arrived yet so my dad simply hleped with an axe 😅 (PS: yes I cant weld 😑) anway: Story cozy, stay curious 🐾 #knifemaking #forging #diy #crafting #blacksmith #damascus

A new way of making spoons I came up with last year. Got in contact with some local tea & coffee shops for a colab but sadly my lathe broke I'm curently focusing more on blacksmithing again but when I have some spare money, I'll make sure to get a lathe again! #lathe #woodworking #craft #handmade

closeup of the spoon. basically the outside is turned, then cut in half and then the inside is turned

and a picture of the spoon as a little present

Small update: I soon gonna try to upgrade my knife making trait by making my first Damascus billet! I already sourced most things so soon it'll happen🥳 Its prob gonna be harder then I imagine it but hey: learn by doing 😂 Anyway, Stay cozy, stay curious 🐾

Drew the second type new. And for this one also the first time, so no old and new comparison 😅 Critique, tips & tricks are always welcome. Specially about designing such "pages"! Anway, stay cozy, stay curious 🐾 #digitalart #drawing #art #OC #characterdesign #Bestiary #rtpls #commentpls #xylendria

Todays drawing is a Bestiary page for the ghost lichtlein of type "care & belonging". In maho theyRe called lihulis and have a cresend moon with a dot in the middle. Its supose to be a symbolic hug XD
Lihulis are the caretakers of their plane. They gather around places of pain or stress -- comforting wilting plants, grieving creatures or arguing beings. Oh and apparently they also smell a bit of cinnamon :P

Journeyman's piece of #okami #amaterasu over the days! Thought I'd share a collection of each day, showing the process a bit better 😊 #apprenticeship #wood #woodsculpture #woodworking #woodcarving #relief #woodrelief #carving #sculpture #sculpting

A picture a classmate mate of the process

Day 6-7
Forming the wolf wasn't all that hard actually but the legs, and even worse the paws, damn that was hell! I never really made paws, I cant even draw that nicely so this was a big burden XD

3-4th day.
I realized that I cant, or at least shouldnt, form the cliff before the legs are defined so I stoped it. Instead I switched to the flames but efter forming that too, it was finally time to start with the wolf part...

End of day 1.
I mainly focused the cliff cause I was too scared to actually start forming out the wolf XD

"quick" #drawing of a ghost Lichtleins (creature of my book #xylendria) to train #Aquarell colors and fineline art some more. I honestly envy artists like @watanabetakao.bsky.social who can simply do fineline art so well ☺️ Still need a lot of practice 🥲 #digitaldrawing #digitalaquarell #fantasy

Whops, forgot to post day 4 of journeyman's piece 😅 Now everything starts to take longer, cuts need to be set thoughtfully and we're slowly getting into shape (at least imo 😂). Today's focus was head and neck Thoughts, critique & tips n' tricks are welcome #woodworking #carving #okami #amaterasu

Journeyman's piece day 4. Focus today was on neck fluff, face and some work on the sun background. Things are slowly getting there but as the shape takes its final form, so does every cut take more time to calculate *sigh*

Shadow1004 @shadow1004.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

Journeyman's piece day 3 Today I mostly focused on the front part. Head, neck, front legs... That kinda stuff. As always, tips, tricks or simple critique is very appreciated! Anyway... Stay stay cozy, stay curious 🐾 #wood #woodcarving #carving #okami #amaterasu #sculpture #woodsculpture #rtpls
