Back home from a fun first day at @polarisconvention.bsky.social ! Was a great start, with lovely table neighbors, met some sweet people, and the chance to gush about some niche fandom (Tsubasa Chronicle) <3 Looking forward to tomorrow, but first I'll fall head first into bed now. Good night!

Tadaaa, my friend @softseaside.bsky.social and my table setup! We're already back home, preparing some last minute stuff, but I want to get a good nights sleep for tomorrow. I'll also bring my camera with me and make some better photos then! :)

A close up photo of my table at Polaris, full of prints and stickers.

A photo of the shared table of me and my friend at Polaris Convention. It's pretty colourful with all the different prints!

Drawing of Alena Braune’s and SoftSeaside’s personas on a ship that sails to the right. Alena’s persona wears a sailor outfit while she is rowing, and SoftSeaside’s persona holds a telescope in one hand while saluting with the other hand. They are smiling and looking excitedly ahead. A big sign is in front of the ship, pointing in the same direction as the ship is sailing in. The sign reads “POLARIS. Your creative universe. Hamburger Messe. 10 - 12 OCT 2025.” Next to the ship, a shark and a blushing duck, SoftSeaside's mascot called Side, are swimming in the water. The shark says, “Let’s sea us there!” Side wears a raincoat with a flower attached to it.

He might realise there's only so much you can do as an apple xD it's pretty funny to imagine Apple!Knives bumping into Wolfwood in the morning, waking him up with a blow to the head

Ooh Monoma looks so good here! :DD And I love the idea of him and Bakugou hanging out (not sure how well they'd understand each other but it would be a fun dynamic) Also your drawings, the lineart as well as the coloring, is just so good :O I especially love the first image!
