#Arttrade w my friend @lehamite.bsky.social !!! It's their character Vesper! As per usual peak character design, it was so fun drawing him :)

Halfbody illustration of @lehamite's character Vesper. He is holding out a hand with a bit of a worried expression on his face. They have big wings on their back and smaller wings at the sides of their head. His three eyes have dark scleras and yellow irises. The background is a simple nightsky with clouds, a moon and some scenery.

i think what i need is like. a patron like in the olden days. just someone with more money than they know what to do with giving me some of it to occasionally churn out a good art for them. that'd be ideal

and self-admittedly the first flat sucked bc she never did any housework in it not bc it was actually a bad flat. it's deeply fucking insulting to watch this multi-billionaire whinge about "living in poverty" when plenty of people would give anything to have even the very worst of what she had.

what she calls "poverty" btw is living in her sister's 4 bedroom luxury edinburgh flat, before moving into her own 1 bedroom edinburgh flat (that she called a 'glorified bedsit') until she begged a friend to give her the deposit for a better edinburgh flat, and they did.

i don't usually comment on shit like this bc fuck her but [INCREDIBLY LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER] joanne you literally didn't "live in poverty" at any point in your life and it's crass as fuck to try and use that to guilt trip one of the few people in your life that somehow still gives a shit about you.

josh boerman @bosh.worstpossible.world · 10d

this is the most miserable woman alive. she’s alienated herself from everyone who ever loved, respected, or trusted her and sees any attempt at conciliation as an underhanded attack. she is in a mind jail of her own creation that will just grow more and more isolated as she marches to the grave

artists, how do you draw hair? 🤍

hair is so fun, especially braids!

Closeup of an illustration of Avis, a tiefling with grey skin and dark hair. Avis belongs to Birmit on Artfight/Bluesky.

Closeup of an illustration of Amity and Kiana lying on their backs with their heads close together, reaching out to touch each other's hair as they look tenderly into each other's eyes. Amity is a dark-skinned girl with dragon-like horns and curly brown and pink hair. Kiana is a girl with pale skin and cat-like ears, white and purple hair, and yellow eyes rimmed in red makeup. Both characters belong to Lunewarden on Bluesky / Artfight.

Closeup of an illustration of of Borealis, an air genasi prince with icy skin and long, flowing white hair that takes on the purple and green hues of the aurora. One of his eyes is covered by an eyepatch, and he wears a regal yet militaristic uniform in tones of dark blue and gold trimmed with white fur. Borealis belongs to LilyBibiss on Artfight.

Closeup illustration of a Fields of Mistria farmer OC, Clementine. They have dark green hair in two braids and a facial scar and wear a blue bandana. Clementine belongs to charlikesalmon on Artfight.

This month's #Birdwhisperer is the European Green Woodpecker!

Reference photo by Frank Ebertus
#art #birds 🦢

a digital painting of a woodpecker clinging to the vertical trunk of a tree. the bird is mostly green, with a white underbelly and head, a black eyepatch, and a red tuft of feathers on the top. the tree is covered in colorful lichen, and while the overall image is green, heavily saturated polygons of color exist throughout.
