Midu, take two!
Dressed for the dry season, when the monsoon wind reddens the skies with sand & the people harvest their crops in preparation for the season of storms which heralds a new year.

I often worry about the limitations imposed on me and my art by my lack of hardware. Literalky all of my digital work is done on my old samsung tavlet with my finger in a free art app that I dont think is even on the app store anymore.

The quintessential aesthetic of fascism
4 frame comic. 1st frame shows a frame from the ai video of trump dumping shit from a plane. Text reads : here's why i think ai art is The quintessential aesthetic of fascism. 2nd frame shows a frame from the trump Gaza ai video. Text reads : Its the closest that oligarchs can get to artists' power to create universes out of thin air. 3rd frame shows ai picture of trump as a pope. Text reads : they see art as a threat because it questions and deciphers the myths, dogmas, lies and illusions that fascism is built upon. 4th frame shows a frame from ai video of mysk dancing with trump. Text reads : ai art being soulless, depthless and uncritical is a feature... not a bug.

It's so discouraging to post art when you see how fucked up the ratio of like to repost is. Just please, do the second click, it's literally few seconds and does so much more for struggling artists.
Doodle of my sona Meh pointing at repost/reblog button with their finger. There is "this one is important" written near them.

The Red-Bellied Bonehead (Oscalvarii Rosaventera), a common fish in the rivers, streams, and bogs of Southern Arcadia. As they age their underbellies grow an ever more vibrant shade of red, starting a pale pink and ending in a deep crimson.

#worldbuilding #Gobocene #Fauna
The first of what was a flurry of sketches of Gobocene fish, the genus Oscalvarii (lovingly called "Boneheads") are a sub-group of the family Osiidae, one of the most common types of fish in the setting. They're funky lil fellers, and VERY diverse, honestly if I was better at phylogeny I'd probably have them broken up even more, but eh. Hopefully the end of my unwanted hiatus.

Anatomically modern goblins (Gobo Sophos, "Sage Goblin") are among the most prolific, though not only sapient creatures of Arcadia and beyond.
Yapping in the description, as always.

A hunter from the Great Steppe, a very average male specimen. A woman from The Cradle, likely from a farming or fishing village, she has the common ethnographic feature of a short, stubby tail, which allows her to wear clothing without obstruction.

Working on another culture of Arcadia.
The Middle Kingdom is a nation of the western coast of Arcadia, brimmed on it's north by the mountains which isolate The Cradle. They're a major power in the region and the source of most of the tin used in bronze across the continent.

Midu, one of the Apikwam people of The Isles. Her clan runs a fine tavern in one of the many city states along The Cradle's coasts, serving wine, tea, and good foods to the traveler and townie alike.

#honeysartbrew #Gobocene #Worldbuilding
Wanted to add Honey to the Gobocene project in some form, so now we got this funny lil feller. Midu is literally the word for "Honey" with the feminine suffix attached (Mid + u). Also, yes, I did have to put this many triangles and if you try to stop me I'LL PUT MORE IN, DAMNIT
