I discovered today that one ear is okay to draw on a head. Two ears that match? Now that's a whole other different story.

Took me aged to get right.

I've been busy practicing feet and lemme tell you, artists say hands are hard but feet are my nemesis. They're so hard!

I've spent days working on an anime eye as practice and pretty happy with it how it turned out. Now, the trick is to do two together.

After seeing Linkin Park called emo again can we just remember that they're nu metal? Last I checked, emo bands don't have rappers (correct me if I'm wrong).

Signed, a very tired elder millennial who remembers when they first came out.

Spent all morning doing my 2024-5 tax. It highlights two things:

1. I spend way too much money on books (but at least I can claim them).

2. I make way too little money from books.

Such a stupid career choice. Please buy my books to make tax time less depressing.
