I've been neglecting bsky for a while now but its heartening to see that every time I check in, I have a handful of notifications despite not posting in forever.

I made a video of my process crafting some creatures of our game Alterfauna✨

I'm using watercolor and colored pencils, my scanner (aka my best friend), Photoshop and Spine

(sorry for the 1rst part's bad quality, I filmed with my shitty phone, I work at night and the light is horrible)

gonna call this one done, I think 🤞
Clouds loom high over a distant lighthouse. A small sailboat passes in the foreground, and above a massive woman towers in the clouds, flanked by two owls. The woman is surrounded with pale drapery that mimics the color and shape of the clouds. She looks down upon the lighthouse and boat.
