I had a tough ol' year but managed to get some art done! I continued learning 3D with #womp3d, got better with trusty ol' #ibispaintx, created my own promotional poster, took part in #ArtFight2024 and finally started battling #blender.

Excited for 2025!! (:

Hello! I've been busy with Uni. Today I got back into doing a lil art by having a play on ART SQOOL using my Gaomon Note-Taking tablet I bought yeaaaaars ago. I feel like I'm getting a much better hang of it now!

Behold some little arts.

I'm going to try and take some product photos tomorrow, I hated how the other ones I took last month came out and I'm just feeling a bit bummed out

Christmas is certainly a time

I just spent like an hour putting artist business cards, train tickets, and other misc ephemera into old tcg page inserts

It's nice they have a home now :3

I have learned how to use illustrator and illustrator-likes!!! Currently playing with Affinity but now I feel *powerful*

Huge thank you to my best friend for helping me via a very "playing on the computer together" Parsec session :3

Something so fun about commissions and art trades of your OCs is how interpretations just add to your lil fellers

Just like oh... that's a nice little detail... it is canon now.

How do you find people for art trades 👀

No reason... 👀

I might start streaming drawing...

Couldn't hurt, I guess?

I'm going to be purely focusing on Uni and art for a bit.

My day jobs have been in games, and I've mistreated multiple times. I would still love to freelance in games in the future, but I've got some trauma-ducks to put in a row.

It's good to be honest about when something isn't serving you! 💪❤️

I used to use Womp 3D for my 3D work. I stepped away when they tried to force users to populate their subreddit.

Now they are an AI 3D generator. Fuck AI.

I've been learning Nomad and I've installed Blender.

I'm gutted, but I'm really looking forward to learning new things. Goodbye Womp ):

People were so nice at con yesterday, they couldn't believe it was my second ever market, it was so lovely :3

I'll be setting up my online shop hopefully the week after next week, I have to cram Uni this week to try and get back on top of things!!

Had an absolutely wonderful day at #Cliffecon so many lovely folks and artists :3

I sleep forever now

I keep starting zines and not finishing them ;-;

Anyway these are in the works!!! Maybe I'll get them finished over Christmas 👀

I can't believe I haven't made any Bugsnax fan art that's absolutely outrageous

I'm in my final year of Uni and I've done IT / Design / Research related modules

I know I want to do Masters, but I'm contemplating whether I do something like Visual Comms / Graphics / Fine Art OR Interaction Design / Human-Computer interaction / UX

I wanna make things but I also want money ;^;

some experimental art I did yesterday, I love this kind of thing, haven't done it in a really long time. I've been reconnecting my original art influences and it's definitely more of this kind of thing!!

Reminds me of a No, I'm Not Human sort of vibe, lots of textures and madness

Not all the local event organisers being on Facebook

I don't want to go on there it's a fucking hell site 😭

I'm tabling my second ever con in a weekish!!

I am spooked but hey, tis the season, right?

Started work on a zine :3

I'm moving 3D softwares, been an avid Womp 3D user for about two years but now I'm moving onto Nomad Sculpt. So far, it is working a LOT better on my tablet and although there's a big learning curve, I think I'm ready for the challenge (:

Important update! Today I decided enough was enough, and I brexed my childhood Petz cat who Kofee drew earlier this year

Still needs some tweaks (eyes, cheeks, and a lil body tweak) but I'm having big feelings about seeing her again 😭😭

Also her bald-ass head is GREAT for hats ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm going to be trying out more modelling programs, I'm going to start over with Nomad Sculpt until I can afford an iPad for when Blender comes out.

I enjoyed my time with Womp but I really can't justify Pro while I'm so poor, and could be using that money to save up for an iPad.
