Thanks moti! it was a rough time!! Especially while they were simultaneously asking me to work so much overtime. The audacity of it all might have fried my brain for a moment there

"You'd think with Marbo's extensive record, Sector leadership would've found a way to wrangle him into dress uniform for at least one award ceremony, but Catachan Command always boasted 100% attrition rates on their formal wear in every theater." Art by the amazing @sketcherface.bsky.social ! #40k

Art depicting Guardsman Sly Marbo from Warhammer 40,000, dressed in simple Catachan fatigues, snapping a salute to the viewer and sporting a shiny medal along with a mess of scars. In the background, a screen featuring the Imperial double-headed eagle can be seen along with the portraits of numerous Catachan Jungle Fighters, their faces letterboxed between banners proclaiming "MORTIS EST GLORIAM" and "ONLY IN DEATH DOES DUTY END."

It was surprisingly awful! I didnt expect it to feel just THAT awful!!! on the bright side though, i have a whole new level of hatred for GenAI hahaha. Thank you for commiserating 🫶

understand the value of human creativity and preserving it, even in corporate settings! Thank you again for comforting me when I was feeling so low!!

Thank you Shiromiy, I really needed to hear that. Even though we live in such troubling times for creativity, I'm happy knowing that many of us still value human works. It's always shocking to me to realise that the general public is still largely ok with AI, but im sure with time they'll come to -

"So easy!"..I don't even love my graphic design work.but still, when presented that document, I just cried. I didn't even know i felt this strongly about my work being fed into the machine and then being happily presented with my replacement. Like I knew it was bad.. but I felt unexpectedly violated

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

When they sent it to me I was kinda shocked. Like... the designs already done.. what exactly do they want me to do with this? I asked them and they seemed so happy to say "indeed it's almost done! We just need you to give it a quick check that it's within the style guidelines and pass it back!"

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I've been super busy with my day job recently, pulling full time hours on my part time contract to try and finish everything on time. I guess I must have lagged behind slightly too much because today, for the first time, they designed a document I was meant to do with AI. Like.. the whole thing.

Thank you!!!! 🌹🌹🌹 Right!? I really underestimated them because they look pretty simple, but that simplicity is also a real challenge! Gotta get all the shapes just right. The eeveelutions especially for me.. it's the legs for me I think, I always struggle with the legs haha

Continuing work on cat job furtune SLOWLY, but surely!! Forgot having a job means doing work and not drawing for a decent portion of my day

over the last few months too because I hit a weird stage with my burn out/art block that I couldnt really do much of anything creative, i felt so shriveled up and worthless, like i had sold my soul at some point (and not even very well!) so it gave me the space (while also being productive, cant-

Putting this thing together was just so therapeutic and significant for me. It ended up being 140 pages long!! and way heftier than I imagined!!! Theres something special about seeing the last 5 years of my life all perfect-bound into a little package. It was the best project for me to work on-

Also.. I cant believe I never shared the final result of all my art book efforts here!? Its been a time, but LOOK!!! They came out so so so so cool!!! I'll do a flip through at some point >:)

It annoys me sm when people say “Zorba would give up on Louis because Louis doesn’t love him back” because not only are you wrong and Lord Louis loves him very much but you’re also wrong because one of Zorba’s greatest traits is his loyalty and determination !! He wouldn’t care !! He’d simp anyway!

first time drawing anything like a chibified Gaw.. so hard! but it felt like a statement to just draw garma amongst a group of people drawing goufs, zakus and gundams. sorry, i like gundam in THAT way (a garma loving way)

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Garma & an itty bitty Gaw! Done for a stamp rally running at animaga, even though I wont be there. Just taking ANY excuse to draw our beloved purple boy 💜

a gacha machine/FURtune teller where players are assigned a cat job in a potential future where cats take over the universe. like 'bowl inspector' or 'cardboard box occupant'. you know, funny stuff." YES BRAIN. LETS. i was meant to be making a miku card gacha, but i cant help it.. such a fun idea..

its weird because ive always known i dont really care to have excess money, im pretty frugal, and prioritise having time to make art over money. but even i was corrupted by the numbers at some point, where if i earned under a certain threshold, then i was failing

140

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

ive realised that not literally every moment of my art making time needs to be in service of 'a successful business', that study and personal work arent even really goofing off, but in service of a greater art goal.

120

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

partially i think its because ive been keeping up a routine involving art study, and separating my time more clearly. this way ive been able to feel like im always making time to improve where i want to, while keeping the ball rolling.

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Maybe its because the art book was so well received? even complete strangers bought it!! and seeing them laugh when theyd read one of my silly comments was way more satisfying than i ever anticipated. seeing art that is more tied to me, rather than fandom merchandise, being wanted was ... so nice??

Nat @sketcherface.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Ahh things are finally winding down again and im falling back into a daily routine, complete with drawing! something changed in my brain after SMASH, I have such clarity and peace with my art now, and I can't even fully understand why
