HEY! Have you read my comic, Kuro Shouri? It's a slow-burn action/fantasy about two high schoolers who are being hunted down by demons! If you like 90s style shonen, slow burn character relationships, and lots of martial arts and sword action, check it out!

Day 172 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. The first picture I drew of Touya for his second arc. In this picture, he looks the way he’s supposed to – disheveled, and like he isn’t taking care of himself. In the comic, he ended up with total Daddy energy instead. Whoops!

I did it again! I drew for 2 hours and 45 minutes! And my hand is less wobbly this time, now that I'm finished. PROGRESS! I'm so excited to keep doing my exercises now that I'm seeing some results! 🥰

Day 171 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. This is actually the first picture of Kijo I ever drew. I remember seeing that ponytail on some random anime character and being inspired. Because apparently I design from the hair first xD

Oh wow. Just found the one comic wallpaper I ever did, way back in 2019. It was a Patreon exclusive, but since my Patreon isn't a thing anymore, I put it here for anyone who may want it. -w-
I should make more wallpapers...if only for myself, haha.

Me: I don't have OCD, I dunno what the docs are talking about.
Me, just now: Hubby, when you're done with the cleaning cloth, fold it in thirds with the logo facing up.
Hubby: Why?
Me: BECAUSE WE HAVE TO OR ELSE

Reading more Inuyasha. Is it just me, or is it mildly frustrating that they keep going up against Naraku, only for him to skedaddle away every time? 😂😅
It was cool to see Kagome blow him up this time, but still!

My hand hurt all through my errands today, it hurt during drawing, then in the last 5 minutes it felt better. And now it feels fantastic. =/
You're not tricking me, hand. I'm not drawing any more today!!

Day 170 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. This is one of the first pictures of Makoto that I have. That girl went from having no appearances to being a fully formed character in like, ten seconds, I swear. 🤣

To add to this, I don't know why people don't understand that genAI is following the same playbook as tech in the 2010s - disrupt the market and labor with low costs, then when you have market share, charge more. It will never be cheaper than even an iPad. You are renting a service you can't keep.
"Being anti AI is class privilege! Poor people can't afford to learn how to make art without it!"
Yes. Famously, all artists are extremely wealthy.

I BROKE MY DRAWING PLATEAU!!!!! I DREW FOR 2 HOURS AND 45 MINUTES INSTEAD OF THE USUAL 2 - 2 1/2 HOURS!
I have been struggling since last fall to reach this goal 😭😭😭 Maybe that means 3 hours is almost possible, too. I'm so happy right now!

Okay, social anxiety, we could skip the whole process of starting a reply to a friend on here, agonizing over what we've written, editing it multiple times and then deleting it. Maybe instead we just talk to our Bsky friends like it's no big deal? Thanks.

Bayonetta 3. Ruined the series for me. And no amount of youtube videos attempting to put a positive spin on the ending will fix it for me.

This one! For one, it's a dramatic scene and I love those, but also the chapter was insanely fun to write, and this particular bit of dialogue went through a slow evolution to become this exact moment with this exact tone.
...it was rough that almost no one reacted to it, though 😅
