I think we need to come up with a name for that awful AI slop font that is repetitively generated without fail. And then normalise shaming people for using AI to make flyers and posters. It's seeping into everything and I'm sick of seeing it. These alone are from my local town page 🤢

I really want to draw but I'm permanently exhausted. I'm not even awake enough to play a game. Not even Spyro, and I can play that with my eyes closed. I feel like I'm spending week days catching up on sleep then the weekend arrives again and its back to midnight starts and 15 hour shifts. Repeat.

Had the week from hell and it's not over yet. Decided to try and draw and this popped up on my tablet from when I'd started I weeks ago but just wasn't sure if I liked it. Cleaned it up a bit and here we go. Some art in these trying times.

My dragonsona Zircon a purple furred dragon with green neck and belly markings and a band half way down the neck. Her dark grey feathered wings are folded and she grins facing diagonally towards the camera with a brow raised. Her eyes are yellow and she has a pale grey/purpley fluffy mane which comes forward in a fluffy mohawk.

Went for a routine eye test. Initially good news. My particularly terrible eye has actually slightly improved. This was then overshadowed with the optician diagnosing me with DED (Dry Eye Disease) so I will have to be on eye drops for the rest of my life and I'm terrible at applying eye drops 🤦

You know this new job can have its rough moments but there's actually something really nice about driving through the night when the roads are much better and then on the way home seeing everyone start to wake up for a week of work but instead I'm done and home free. I was never built for the 9 to 5

TW: Toxic Abuse relationship Learning to fly again is realising you'll probably never get closure. You have to grieve someone who's still alive. They took everything from you, but you're still here. And despite everything they did to you... you still miss them and would give anything to go back.

A tall, pretty Pygni waving to her friend, oblivious to a bite mark on her shoulder and pink bloody hand prints on her body. Another Pygni in the foreground who is in disguise walks away from her meal, still licking the tastiest blood she's ever had from her fingers.

Okay against my better judgement I have completed not one but TWO refs just in time for #ArtFight. Meet Sencha and Solstice. I started Sol yesterday and whilst at work today the vision of Sencha came to mind. I liked his Bee-eater design too much so why not keep them both?! #DinoOC #paleoart #raptor

Made a lil factsheet to add more images of Arclight to her Artfight profile. I would love it if she got a little love this year ❤️ #lombax #RatchetAndClank #LombaxOC #Artfight

My Lombax OC Arclight. She is snowy white with dark grey stripes and blue eyes. Her fur is extra fluffy on her chest, cheeks and tail. She wears blue work pants with knee pads and a bandaged waist because she doesn't have a belt. In her fingerless gloves hands she holds an orange handled screwdriver. Around her are little facts: Despite growing up alone, Arclight is friendly and always dreamed of finding friends. She cod never have imagined finding the family she did in both Ratchet and Clank. Arclight grew up on Hoven, a cold snowscape very different from Fastoon. Think of it as a pet which is kept outdoors. It's not in her breeding but rather an adaptation to cope with the cold. Because of this her fur is much thicker in some places like her chest fur and the tips of her ears, cheeks and elbows. If she stays on Veldin with Ratchet she struggles with the heat and tends to spend her time with less clothes as much as she hates the sand in her fur! Her tail is fluffy like a pom pom! I'm sorry if this is your first time seeing Lombax feet. It is what it is. On Hoven resources were scarce. She never managed to find a belt so she would make do. A self taught electrician, like any Lombax she tinkers and builds.

Finished another large commission, many months in the works, for friend @tearexee.bsky.social! 💚 The background image is stock with a Photoshop CS5 filter, everything else was sketching and staring at Jurassic Park figurines and JWE2 models and putzing in Clip Studio Paint. #jp #jw #dinosaurs

A blue and orange raptor prepares to launch herself off a tree to attack Indoraptor, who skulks on all fours and opens its jaws to bellow. The raptor is drawn after a Jurassic Park style raptor. The two are bathed in early morning light filtering through the trunks of great trees in a tropical forest.
