Vllt wird es ja nach der Polaris besser. Wenn ich ein paar neue shiny Sticker gegönnt hab 😍✨️ und dann kann ich ja anfangen zu sparen für ein gebrauchtes iPad Pro mit 8GB RAM und großem Screen. Weil das ist das einzige was wirklich ein Upgrade wäre!!

Wenn ich mir n iPad holen würde, würde es also dennoch auf das jährliche CSP Abo rauslaufen, da spar ich also gar nicht! Also warum dann überhaupt ein iPad holen? Der Gedanke kam nur weil ich das CSP Abo am 24.12. Verlängert und es für mobile Geräte keine einmalige Zahlung gibt wie Procreate😫 2/2

Wie werde ich meine iPad obsession los??? Mein Samsung Tablet funktioniert noch! Das ist nur, weil ich was neues, glänzendes, schickes kaufen will😭😭 Procreate find ich jetzt nicht unbedingt besser als CSP, ich hab mich schon so an CSP gewöhnt, wenn man Adobe kann ist das total intuitiv! 1/2

Looking forward to Polaris 👀

Text: smallbizcat at Polaris B4.171 Deskmats 90x40cm, new, Mousepad 25cm. The first image shows the illustration of one of the deskmats, a frog sitting on a branch with pink flowers, some more flowers on the left and a purple background with a white grid. The next is a collage of many frogs doing several poses in a white grid on a purple background, the poses rang from laying down comfy, sitting turned away from the viewer to jumping in the air! The mousepad is Freddy the frog's happy face with closed eyes amd big pink swirly cheeks.

Text: smallbizcat at Polaris B4.171, Lanyards, Earrings, Keychains. The photographs show a long lanyard with rain themed icons, a short lanyard with frogs in different hats and a pair of earrings of a weather ghost with a rain drop pearl dangling under it. That design is also available as a phone charm. There's also keychains of a mushroom with cutlery, a bee dangling below a red flower and a green Junimo holding a big yellow star with the words "you tried". The last keychain is a shaker charm of a cloud with 5 little Warawaras that can be shook around.

Text: smallbizcat at Polaris B4.171, Buttons, Wooden & Enamel Pins. The photographs show a heart shaped buttons of KeeKee the cat curled up into a heart shape with a holo finish. Below there's 15 more small round buttons showing designs of frogs, rain themes and cats.
The wooden pins pictured are two chestnut animals, a frog in a raincoat and a frog face on a sunflower.
The enamel pins are a frog sitting in a shiny silver watering can wearing a sunhat, a small frog dreaming on a glittery moon cresceng and a dark blue shark looking friendly.

Text: smallbizcat at Polaris B4.171 Washitape, Commissions, Choose: snack, accessoire, companion. The 4 washitape designs are one with a halloween theme with a black cat, pumplin, bat, wizard, cauldron and ghost. The next is rain themed with frogs, flowers, a rainbow and clouds. The 3rd is many frog faces wearing hats ranging from wizard hat, to bow, to crown. And the last one is summer themed with frogs, a butterfly, icecream, a crab and a sandcastle.
The commission is a print of a wizard from holding a staff, like a character inventory screen in a game with 3 empty slots on the right that can be filled out allowing for commissioner's requests.

There you go🤗

Screenshot from the TV show Rings of Power, season 2. It shows Elrond from the back, in his teal blue robes and curly dark blonde hair, working on the figurehead of a future ship, it is shaped like a bird with a long beak. He is in Cìrdans workshop and there are tools and workbenches around him.

I finished my ludum dare game!!

I have so many more ideas I’d love to add in the future, but I’m really proud of what I achieved in less than 3 days 🥹

Here’s the game: exozetart.itch.io/lemme-stash

There aren’t controls for mobile yet (not touch support), so you’ll need a keyboard 🐹

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.
