My gynecologist really appreciated that I wore my funny titty socks just for her. She said next time I should come with ovary socks.
Little does she know that, while she will probably have forgotten about it tomorrow, I'll be spending months of my life to find funny ovary socks to brighten her day.😂

I mean it from the bottom of my heart, just create for yourself first and then for the five people you keep captive in your basement.

Trying to find time for more silly doodle diary comics again (I really miss doing them!).

Honestly, sometimes I think it's a miracle I've survived into my 40s.
A doodle diary comic about me not having any fine motor skills and thus casually smashing my glass kettle into my kitchen cabinets. I did not learn from my mistakes and, against my better judgement, got a new water kettle... again made from glass, because it glows in different colors depending on the temperature and this apparently trumps any safety concerns.

One of the biggest signs that it's True Love: even though he doesn't like #HazbinHotel I still put up with my partner.

Also a pretty great sign: I generously refrain from singing along to the songs for hours on end in his presence.

(And he better appreciate it.)

A quick doodly comic about Kila's stinky adventures yesterday. (Send help!! XD)
A very roughly sketched out comic about my dog Kila having rolled in something extremely vile and stinky. Page 1: I have to give her a bath, she hates it, and worst of all: it doesn't even help much with the stink. Page 2: I use my secret weapon, the vinegar rub on her. All it does is she now smells of piss vomit, dog shampoo and vinegar now. A bit later she wants to lie on my lap even though she's still wet and stinky. I succumb to my fate and let her, because she used her secret weapon, the sad puppy eyes.

Yoyo's witchy adventures (1/2).

Giant thanks to Yoyo for this ep(h)ic sleeve project, that - after quite a couple of sessions full of nerdy nonsense and witchy giggles - is finally coming to an end.
A very busy and colorful sleeve tattoo consisting of lots of witch-themed elements. A big snake wrapped around the arm builds the framework for other smaller items and creatures, like a spell book, a cauldron, potion, cat ghosts, a quill, a broom, a bird skull hanging in a spider web, and so on. The same witchy tattoo sleeve, photo taken from the back. The same witchy tattoo sleeve, close-up of the bird skull and spider on the lower arm. The same witchy tattoo sleeve, side-view.

A funny Sauron interpretation for someone's very first tattoo. Thank youuuu, Julian, I had a blast! (Sorry you ended up not getting any sleep in during our session.🥲 Maybe next time??😬)

[lines healed, color fresh]
A calf tattoo of Sauron in boxing attire worn over his armor, surrounded by a stylized sketchy boxing ring and watercolor fire. The same Sauron tattoo from a slightly different angle. The same Sauron tattoo closer up. The same Sauron tattoo from a slightly different angle.

Back in August I had the honor of eternalizing Laura's trusty adventure buddy on her skin. We also added a little something to her arm, referencing the calf piece we did over two years ago (see next skeet).
Thank you so much for your trust (and endurance)!! 🥹🫶
Fresh tattoo on an upper arm: a sketchy, doodly style teddy bear entangled in yarn that wraps around a cloud and goes up to a happy looking sun. The ball of yarn wraps around to the inside of the arm. Different angle of the same teddy tattoo. Different angle of the same teddy tattoo. Different angle of the same teddy tattoo.

Meet Finn, the second half of the fantastic duo that recently graced me with their joyous presence. So so so looking forward to seeing you and Emmy again soon(ish) for our next adventures! ;)

[black healed, blues fresh]
Left upper arm with a fresh tattoo: an abstract design reminiscent of something between a spider web and cracks with some blue and turquoise watercolor textures. Different angle of the same tattoo. Different angle of the same tattoo. Different angle of the same tattoo.

Usually my almost-daily doodle book thingies only land on my Patreon, but I guess this spread needs to be public because it's basically fanart of @fleance.bsky.social outfit glam posts.
A double page spread in a sketchbook. On the left an ink drawing of someone with an oversized hoodie and platform boots, with some angelic themed doodles around, on the right side someone in a colorwork sweater and doodly demon horns and tail, and a rainbow.

Very Whale! Much Manta!
I had the pleasure of getting to fill Emmy's arm with inky splashy manta rays and whale sharks! Thank you so so much, for letting me have so much fun with the theme (and for your first tattoo, too) and very generally for our mantastic time together!

A freshly tattooed upper arm filled with manta rays and whale sharks, in a rather abstract, sketchy style with ink and watercolor elements. The same tattoo from another angle. The same tattoo from another angle. The same tattoo from another angle.

Would y'all be mad if I went back to the OG inktober prompts this year?
After many years of using alternative prompt lists (for a variety of reasons), this year's official one kinda really looks... much more inspired and like a fun one to follow??

Never be afraid to draw weird crap. It's the secret for establishing a regular drawing practice imho. :D
Daily sketches sketchbook on my knees in a car, in which I just doodled a very strange skeptical deer.

I swear I also still tattoo bigger stuff, but I got to tattoo so many cute creatures over summer, I cannot keep them all to myself.
Thank you so much for adopting this pair of little weirdos, Sara!🥹💕

(Please remember: solitary keeping not recommended, everyone needs at least one good friend!!)
Two small fresh tattoos on the right leg, a bit above the ankle, in a sketchy doodle style: a smol frog with a little heart in its hands and the tongue all rolled out, and - more or less at the tip of its tongue - a very happy bee with some tiny flowers around it. Same tattoo, close-up of the bee. Same tattoo, close-up of the frog. Slightly different angle, showing both frog and bee.

Definitely wasn't me dragging my dog out in the street in a panic with a cliché mud face mask still on because I didn't get the memo that, apparently, it's national test alarm day or whatever.

Fresh cupcake and happy fishy for Mara. Thank youuu!!💖

One of those rare occasions I managed to take pictures in bright daylight, hehe.

The strawberry and pigeons are from last year (🍓=May'24, 🐦=Oct'24) and healed so well.
("softrebel" not by me)
A left arm featuring a mix of fresh and healed tattoos, photographed in a backyard. On the lower arm: healed tattoo of a scene with two cute pigeons, a rainbow and a cloud with a content face. Above the clouds a freshly tattooed fish. On the upper arm a healed strawberry with a face and little heart, peeking around the corner, a freshly tattooed cupcake. All tattoos are done in a doodly, scribbly comic-style. A close-up of the cupcake tattoo on the inside of the upper arm. A shot of the inside arm, showing the cupcake tattoo and one of the healed pigeons. Close-up of the healed pigeon on the inside of the lower arm.

Drawing Sauron in boxing attire sounds like fun, until you notice drawing armor is kind of... a pain? :')

(Tbh still fun tho)

A kite for Caro!
(Healed OptInk tattoo not by me.)

Thank you so so much for this podcast-level bubbly happy day! Time always flies faster than any kite (or jet plane) with you.
Fresh tattoo on an inner upper arm: a kite with ribbons and bows wrapping down on the arm, in a sketchy ink and watercolor style.

Abstract volcanic action for Nanette! 🌋
This one's actually from last year, but you know I'm not always the best at social mediating, and when I stumble upon a gem like this, where the photo quality was not the limiting factor, I gotta share it. Better late than never!

[black healed, colors fresh]
Fresh tattoo on the outside of the right arm. An abstract interpretation of an erupting volcano, with bold brush strokes and textures, with intense red, orange and blue tones. Same tattoo, shot taken at an angle from the front. Same tattoo, shot taken at an angle from the back. Same tattoo, shot taken at an angle from the back, kind of a frog's perspective.

Hey German bubble, please subscribe this petition. Your government want to permanently record the names of those who changed their legal gender. With AFD you might imagine the threat for trans, inter & non-binary people. Stop this!

I am beyond ecstatic I could combine my passion for silly tattoodles and tofu for Mel and Clemens, thank youuuu~! Tofu Kings inspired by one of the tiny wannados in my highlight, but a bit more intricate and personalized.
Close-up of fresh partner tattoos, both on the inside of the left lower arm: both tattoos feature a tofu king with a crown and text. One is sitting on a pile of books and board games while reading a book about plants with an intense face, behind it a house plant, above it text: toofu king focused!! The second o and king are a smaller font and color, to make the pun clearer (tofu king -> too fucking). The second looks very tired and is sitting on a pile of pillows, with some comic-y indicators of dizziness and exhaustion, one had held to its head. Text: toofu king tired. Close-up of Mel's tofu king: focused! Close-up of Clemens' tofu king: tired! Same tofu partner tattoos on the inside of the left lower arms, a wider shot showing the hands gently interlocking.

A little "flash" mob on Alexandra's arm!

Thank you so much for spontaneously jumping into my mailbox, filling in for that cancelation and mass-adopting some critters. I'm sure they're happy they get to travel with you! 🥹🫶
Partial view of an outside arm with fresh sketchy-style tattoos: main view on Enton thoughtfully floating in water, a raven with a tamagochi and a cat looking around the corner. Wider shot of the same arm with fresh sketchy-style tattoos: main view on Enton thoughtfully floating in water, a raven with a tamagochi and a cat looking around the corner. Front view of said upper arm: a better view on the raven with the tamagochi in its beak and the slightly grumpy looking cat with pink text: NO. Close-up of the raven tattoo.
