Day 10: sweep (also water)

Day 9: someone holding a teacup (I have decided a sinistea is a teacup) #poorlydrawnoctober

Three illustrations of a pair of hands, colored ghostly white and purple, holding the pokemon Sinistea

Day 8 of #poorlydrawnoctober: the character you were obsessed with when you were 12, the one and only Sailor Saturn. Going for extra poorly drawn and throwback style with a pseudo ballpoint pen look

What’s cooler than one swords? TWO swords! What’s cooler than two swords? Two swords, but on fire!

Day 7: sword (for #poorlydrawnoctober) and fire (for all fandoms promptober) combined for the idea for this one— cool fire sword lady, Rellana.

I feel like my interest in my hobbies kind of comes and goes— sometimes I spend all weekend sewing, sometimes I don’t touch the machine for months. I haven’t drawn except when required to recently and now I’m doing the inktober type prompts to see if I can get some mojo back.

The photo I actually took of the boat. Of course, with long exposure, its multiple headlights are not really visible. Also not pictured, the occasional fish flopping out of the water.

A photo of the lake at night. The shore and part of the water are illuminated by a research boat, which appears to be mostly a blaze of white light with weird little arms sticking out.

Day 6: boat (a spaceship is also a boat) for #poorlydrawnoctober — an artistic depiction of the fish survey boat that came by a couple nights ago

A boat, or possibly a ufo, looming out of the darkness and illuminating the water around it. It has four bright headlights, a red and green headlight, and two “arms” with fingers trailing into the water

Put WAY too much effort into #poorlydrawnoctober day 5: favorite flower.
I tried to emulate the style of a reduction print, all colors are their own overlapping layers and contain everything from the layer above.

The amount of Effort was immense and I respect your ability to empty your brain on to a page and have no idea how you do that

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 5d

I do have to say as an artist I have LOVED getting to chat art ideas with someone who doesn’t art and getting to take their sketch/stick figure/little doodle and turn it into a whole picture. It’s very fun and collaborative.

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 5d

Well, more like, for artists I think the low stakes chaos is when we chat with writers about headcannons and possible plot snippets! Anything more than that and we’re approaching the writer equivalent of a fully rendered illustration.

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 5d

(Sorry I’m just crashing in here we may be moots-in-law? Fascinating concept but I feel like maybe feels different from the writer side than the artist one!)

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 5d

I’m so glad you feel that way about art everyone should get to do a low stakes doodle. As an artist I have written fic once and it was sure an experience I don’t feel compelled to repeat! We all write a little to communicate but actual creative writing is sure a skill I have put no points in

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 6d

Thanks! I had fun (?) trying to render the transparency

Finally hitting a #poorlydrawnoctober prompt, today I have for you: clothes with lots of layers, featuring sqx as my model and some brush experiments again

Absolutely! You don’t need that kind of negativity in your life

I LOVE THEM and the colors are lovely

Day 3! The word of the day was “crown” and I’ve got Sora on the brain.

Yes I am already behind. Shh. I’m going to catch up right now I’m going to go draw more.

Day 2: weave. I have for you a variety of fiber arts (not pictured: weaving) because this was all that was in my head for the day.

A sketch of the three fates, or possibly the Norns. One is holding a distaff, one spinning thread with a drop spindle, and the third is waiting with large scissors.

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 7d

Eh I know you want people to tell you why they don’t read your fic because it matters a lot to you, and I know people are more likely to see your post if someone responds, and my reason isn’t very deep, so I figured I’d kick it off.

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 7d

I read your wx stuff! But I have read zero of your more recent trigun stuff because I don’t go here, sorry. I know you’ve been trying to convince me to get into it but alas it has not grabbed me.

Frania @teleportwarning.bsky.social · 8d

I have witnessed the fish ufo (limnology research boat with incredibly bright lights that is slowly navigating around the lake, zapping fish, netting them, recording data, and throwing them back)
