Fall Hercule/Puissant speedpaint

      Hello. I am very quickly sharing that I have finally gotten around to editing and uploading a "new" video to my Youtube channel so here it is:

Till next doodle, toodles! (Enjoy your weekend if I didn't double post today)

A Belated International Women's Day and Anniversary

 

      Hello. Yes, I realize that I skipped February posting but February was not a good month emotionally for me. Yesterday was international women's day and the anniversary of me starting this blog and yet I forgot to post here💀so let's get to it.

My women OCs! Some of them you may recognize if you've been checking out my blog since... uh... 2014? and you might recognize that this doesn't accurately represent just how many female OCs I have because I have been spending over a decade creating quite a few OCs. And I'm still creating OCs. I think I accidentally projected my mental state on the first doodle by making her look so vulnerable. 

It has been nearly a whole year since I experienced lockdown and two years since I've had an income (I know I quit my job but not like I wasn't looking for a replacement) so it's been affecting me negatively and I desperately need a change. I feel like my whole life needs to be rewritten because the current one hasn't been working for me. Don't know where this was going but I obviously need to talk with somebody and my parents are not very sympathetic with my feelings so I don't even bother telling them anymore.

Well, I might make an announcement soon (I've been saying something about an announcement for a long time) so let's see when I return with more doodles. Till then, toodles.

Ch-ch-ch-CHANGES (I can't even name a Spotify playlist, don't expect any cool titles here)

 

      Hello! No point in mentioning anything about it being a new year when January is nearly done but yes, I am still alive and I thought I'd throw some crumbs at you as proof.

I had been meaning to draw this character with their redesign and so here he is. This is one of my many OCs, Haru Morgan. He used to have dirty blond hair but as time has passed and I have changed stuff around, I decided it was best to give him brown hair (it’s simpler to color) and even changed how I draw his bangs. It was nice working on this cuz I’ve been working on something since November that I thought I would have done by now but depression has me drawing so slooooowwly so just take this. And this:

"I killed Chin the Conqueror." I read The Rise of Kyoshi this week and loved it, so here's some unfinished fanart. I've loved Kyoshi since hearing about her in atla and then when she showed up. She's just *awesome* and I haven't heard anybody hating on her, which is good cuz 2020 brought up some necessary hate on characters that don't deserve it. So, happy weekend, don't go doing anything that would cause a giant woman to show up at your door with a full face of makeup to beat you up (that includes NOT WEARING YOUR MASK! there's still a pandemic) and till next doodle (or if I feel comfortable making any announcements... I feel like that'll happen in February), toodles!

How have people managed to to achieve this in 2020? I can't even do it when there isn't a pandemic

      Hey, hey, hey! It be the end of the year. Sorry I dropped off the face of the earth, I've been working on something that's still not finished. I'm not announcing what it is until next year because I don't know if I can commit to it just yet but I can tell you it's bigger than the usual doodle. Speaking of doodles, I made one to commemorate this crazy year:

Ah yes, the dreaded life comparison that social media brings with the ability to share things over the internet with people you do and don't know. As soon as the pandemic started, I cozied up to staying in my bed while watching wonderful animated shows mostly from Japan (2010 me would be so jealous of how much anime I have gotten away with seeing this year and the fact that I could bingewatch whole seasons) and postponed job searching to not put me or my family at risk. Yet, other people are not putting their lives on pause so I end up in an end-of-the-year depression as usual because all I did this year was survive in a pandemic, become a BTS fan, and cut my hair shorter than my shoulder for the first time in my life. It's grown since June but after the first few weeks, I've been sporting a fluffy, messy bunnytail on some days. Oh, and I created a new set of OCs that I think are my comfort characters for 2020 and have done quite a bit of writing for my OCs. This year has been a wild ride and I just want to get on with life again and maybe actually get somewhere so that I don't feel like a dunce at 30 😭

2020, sayonara.

Korean Keith for a belated Keithtober

 

      Hello! I'm back to briefly give you this latest drawing I did before I disappear again and hopefully return with something else. 

It's Keith! I meant to have this done in October for Keithtober but I um... yeah. I spent the past month not being motivated to finish anything for posting so I had to power through this one and I ended up not finishing by the end of October but here he is. It's rather weird, at least to me, for him to have a blue background when he's the red paladin but alas, the red background was too much and this is Korean Keith not Japanese Keith. Japanese Keith is Kogane Akira from Beast GoLion or whatever the name was for the original show. Besides, I just remembered that I already have a chibi Keith portrait where he has a red background shaped rather like a circle so enough of that. He is surrounded by Korean fir which has rather blue pinecones, lending more to that calm blueness in this piece. It's a cool piece for Keith, the coolest boy and my favorite one from Voltron, no matter what the amount of Lance doodles tells you.

Now I'm gonna go back to entertaining myself with the projects I am willing to work on (I have spent all of summer and this first half of fall writing some stories and I have written at least 180 pages total this entire pandemic period to date.) and I may or may not be working on a webcomic. I'm not going to say anything definite because I am still in development and need to finish naming characters and my weird lack of motivation to draw finished pieces I am willing to share has been affecting this but yeah. December or January will be better times to make an announcement if this becomes an actual thing. I'm off to busy myself and wonder how I'm gonna make money to cover car expenses this month because the pandemic has put a stop to my search for employment. Well anyway, till next doodle, toodles!

It's an anime crossover! Cops and Volleyball!

 

      Hello! I drew something towards the end of September but it was a comic and I had some issues with my internet and I just fell into a slump during September that has me not finishing the anime I am currently watching (lovely complex, based on a manga I read years ago... for some reason, I'm not finding the show as funny as I did the manga but maybe it's just me and my slump) or drawing, or posting on here, so sorry!

I drew this around the time that episode ten aired (two weeks ago already... whoops) but yeah, episode four aired and the fandom was like "Daisuke is a Kageyama!" and in the meantime, Haru's voice actor happens to be the voice actor for Miya Atsumu in Haiyku so I thought up this silly idea of Haru quoting this specific line from the time Kageyama and Atsumu were in that fancy volleyball camp together. I enjoyed this show, would like it if it had a second season, and I guess I am experiencing "showhole" now because I didn't know what to do with myself last night when I would have been watching it and then talking about it with a friend. Well, I believe that Haiyku season four starts up again today so that's something. I am making no effort to participate in Inktober but might indulge in some Inktober style drawings if the mood strikes me so hopefully I'll draw something this month. Anyways, stay safe, have a good weekend, and till next doodle, toodles.

Looking for some hot stuff?

 

      Hello! I have returned for that scheduled posting. Might have done it earlier if it weren't for the fact that my sister was monopolizing my laptop... and then she got offended when I pointed it out but anyway, prepare yourself for not one but four pictures of the same character 🙈:

I accidentally created a new OC a couple weeks ago and it's really hard to get them out of my head sometimes 🙈 I got the idea last week to draw them like this with makeup and yeah... A friend of mine who is in love with this character had mentally retconned their black hair and was imagining it to be pink so I tried it out and it's an option (still going to have them with their black hair majority of the time because that was how I imagined them). I wanted to do dramatic colored lighting on them but it wasn't working out and by the time I had figured out the right way to do it, I was like "too much work, next time". This was fun for me to work on and I am tempted to put this for sale on my Redbubble and Society6 but they barely got noticed on Instagram and Tumblr so idk, I don't want to risk them getting ignored on there as well. Nobody seems to care much about my OCs because they're not based on any particular fandom. Anyway, enjoy your weekend, I'm working on another little project (as other projects sit around waiting to be finished) so let's see when I post that. Till next doodle, toodles!
