Artist who needs to draw more (I’m working on it)
He/Him
Very open to Critique, so if you see something wrong, feel free to point it out.

Last year was a bit rough for me. It felt like every time I got my footing it was yanked out from under me. Sickness, mental problems, and straight up lack of discipline to get going again.

I may not have ever gotten going again if it wasn't for the people surrounding me. So this is for them. Enjoy

Commission done! This one has been ages in the making through restarts and redraws as I've improved and not been satisfied with the product.

I present, Nerro! A Commission for a good friend of mine!

Slowly getting over burnout! Enough to give a fairly simple sketch page together!

Hey all, sorry for not posting for a bit! I’ve been trying to get back on drawing after having days filled from when I wake up to when I slept filled with manual labor for family, but it’s been hard as right after that got finished, I suddenly have really bad depressive spikes!
Hopefully soon! :)

Today was alright, but the really bad anxiety has not gone away.

Have doodle of disproportioned Ambia.

Today's warm-ups before I got to work on Comms! I can't share the more impressive stuff I've done and am doing today but, at least I learned a little bit from these sketches :)

Xunal! An oc I haven't drawn in a bit.

tbh I was hella tired today so recuperating and just doing a sketch I think seemed like a good idea. Though I really want to get to a point where I'm not doing "day on day off" serious drawing.

I present, Aether Slimes! Based on a combination of Slugs, Frogs, and Seals!

These guys consume gas and flop around until their body weight becomes too much for their bellies to bear, causing the gas to rush to their backs, and shoot new slimes into the world!

Today's warm-up sketch coming really late cause the sluggishness has not gone away, hopefully after a good night's rest I'll be able to get going a lot sooner tomorrow, and perhaps enough that I can do some color!

Either way, A recreation of a scene me and a few friends thought up between OCs!

Today was a bit sluggish, had a lot to do so this was the best I could muster for a brief sketch of something I wanted to do.

A fan concept of a Mega Jirachi I was doing in tandem with a friend to compare notes on how we handled the concept!

I’ve been thinking about this a lot too, and I just love how a lot of stuff was stylized back then. Bigger goofier proportions. Designs from Nintendo were in what felt like the first of its modern depictions, and it was great!

There was also a bit of “childlike grime” to everything too. I love it.
Honestly, graphics could've never gotten better than this and I'd be fine with it.

Aesthetically I prefer more stylized stuff, or PSX/N64 low poly with chunky textures, but I dunno man, I've never really needed more than Gamecube.

...Also NGL, I kinda feel GCN holds up better than Wii at times.
there is a rarely (if ever?) spoken about gamecube era aesthetic of stylized graphics mixed with textures made from real world photographs and I hope a bunch of indie devs embrace this at some point

Sharing a recent dnd character that I made who is a sentient puppet named Miata! They’ve got a deep in the weeds story that I can’t share cause friends who are in that campaign follow me :D

God I really wanna draw and work on commissions and everything that I’ve been wanting to draw but I’m still recovering from becoming Uber sick right after the game awards.

Here’s an intermediary piece sketched super quickly and colored by my lovely spouse @morsebanana.bsky.social !
