🌟Commissions Open! 🌟
Hi, my PC is nearly obsolete & fighting for its life, so I've updated my deets after a few years in hopes of scrounging together some help for a replacement. Let's do some art business! Hand over your blorbos!

I got back into overwatch a few days ago just to see if Frank could run it/to use as a dopamine recharge, and I think my mains are quickly shaping up as some sort of Type. Gravity grandpa (ha. ha ha) is about to overtake the tire fire in an entirely unpredictable sweep that no one foresaw /s

hELLO that's some new faces, good heavens
--I'm Ness! I draw mostly Draenei with a smattering of commissions in between! All I do is draw OCs, play WoW, & battle approx. 5,000 health debuffs at any given moment.
If you like things with hooves, horns, & magic, you're probably not -that- lost tbh

Turns out, self indulgent stuff remains the key to burnout.
Had a capital-I Incident the other night between Exodion & @jackaboi-art.bsky.social's Venmaar, & I couldn't get the resulting clash outta my brain. They're both so stupid & violent & they WILL reap the consequences
◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊
In the sands of K'aresh, a Man'ari warrior and a purple Eredar mage are locked in combat. The Man'ari parries a blow from the other's conjured mana shield with an enormous polearm, spewing fel and anima magic. The mage charges into the warrior leaving a trail of shadow magic behind, who is bracing himself in the sand. Both characters snarl viciously at one another, and there's a clear hatred and hostility between them.

And just like that, I realized what's kept me in burnt candle mode for months. Last winter (+ some of this one) was overfull w/ grief & hardship, & my poor brain is fighting for its life w/ pattern recognition in the Now. I'm looking for the spark, I promise, I won't leave everything hanging forever

Yesterday was a badly needed rest day after we got all moved in, but now that it's all taken care of, I can return to business & get back to art for realsies. I'll be putting high prio on it since Frank gave me another subtle error last night!
Don't you do it, boy, I need you to survive a lil longer

Important shit that I’m still trying to learn.
I am begging you. Please learn about stress/discomfort tolerance. Practice raising it. You need this to survive. If someone online can ruin your day with a throwaway comment, you desperately need to understand discomfort tolerance and consciously, systematically build that shit. Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks! Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you. No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset. It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate. That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast. Letting your discomfort dictate your actions and beliefs about things is a great way to become a terrible person. Learn. Discomfort. Tolerance.

In a desperate attempt to break out of my exhaustion-induced art block, I went back to basics. I was a Sonic artist first, & I break the glass on that when I need it most. A very rare occurrence these days! You may consider this a rent-lowering sound if you must lmao

We're getting closer to being fully moved in, so over the next couple of days I plan to reach out to the folks I've left to wait patiently, meanwhile. I keep saying I'm a type-A personality stuck in the body of an exhausted senior citizen, & it really shows when I need to be anything but sedentary

Friend was venting a bit about struggling with "moot perception" and I think in 2026 some of you need to regain control and agency of your spaces. Having the "what will my followers think" mindset is self-harming. It's your account, with your rules, and every follower is a guest. Don't forget that.

Finally settling in for bed on the first night at the new place. Feeling tired & discombobulated, & tomorrow will be just as exhausting getting the last of the crap packed up n' moved, but we're in the home stretch. I can see a new routine at the end of the tunnel and all will be well

So burnt out I ain't drawn anything substantial in weeks b/c of the moving situation, & all I've been able to do is keep my head down & survive January so I can get a new routine. Trying very hard to get back on it, I've still got owed stuff, but thank you for sticking around while I sit here coping

2025 was a really, -really- shitty year in my personal life, but I tried immensely hard to stay afloat and still create despite everything. It went by in a blur, but I'd still like to share a smattering of my favorite (safe, spoiler-free) pieces from each month. Let's keep going!

The poet in me wants to write something profound about the turning of the quarter-century, and having survived it against all odds. The other percentage of me just kind of wants to watch it happen around the digital bonfire with friends. Maybe having room for both is the magic of these 25 years🍿

Since it came up last night that Grandpa Exodion might have THE dumbest collection of demon names ever, I'd like to present them. Bromondus, Tangthang, Gelham, and of course, Rhuuzun/'Raisin'. I'm not legally allowed to rename any of them
bromondus the incubus, tangthang the voidwalker, gelham the imp, and rhuuzun the felhound. All stand on a plain table somewhere in a house.

My friends are holding me at butterknifepoint to take a day off from projects for once, & the guilt is crushing, so maybe that's a sign I DO need a day off. But I'm also losing my mind in my enclosure trying to keep my hands off it all ARGH

I had to give up FF14 months ago for a lot of reasons, but I need a 'bounce' game so I'm not constantly buried under WoW stuff in my free time. That being said, I've decided to reinstall warframe after a 4 year hiatus, to see if I can still run the bitch. WE RIDE

Anzira for @fierylara.bsky.social! TW: Uncanny, I think? Not sure about protocol here. Anyway, this design was super pleasant to work with, & let me have a lot of fun with void swoopies. Very technical terms we're using here. Have a babe!

Her hair is in a short bob, she wears a dark dress with ripped shoulders, and hidden behind her hair is a set of three old-god-esque eyes.

This month has been a LOT of catching up with the backlog & just getting through the days in a dissociative state, but we get the keys to move apartments in less than a week, so there's that. Sizing down + paying less, & I'll need to double my distance for grocery walks, but I'll survive!

Ah! I can post these now! Lovingly presenting Lodestone for @wowcomicanthology.bsky.social's Interlude this year.
Torn by time and war, two old Eredar finally have a home with each other among their people. Life is hard! Make some bonds to better it!
◊ #WorldofWarcraft #Draenei #WoW #Warcraft #Art ◊
Comic title card: Lodestone, by Rhythmcrown & Skeblinn. 1. An elderly Eredar mage flies through the Twisting Nether, opening a portal to a ruined planet. 2. His ley-outlined hand reaches through the portal, showing more Legion-burnt planets. 3. The mage arrives on the planet's surface, charging up a spell in fury. 4. A wide sweeping shot. The mage stands on a Legion spire in the foreground, arms raised high, after conjuring a massive spell rune in the sky. The rune rains arcane spellfire down upon Burning Legion forces, cracking a portal tower, with demons scattering below. SCRIPT: From far afield do comets fly on wings of radiant glow These meteoric trav’lers carry boons and omens vast Lonely drifters sailing solar winds from long ago, They would but shoulder legacy if only kindly asked So spare a fleeting thought for all the lights gone out too soon, Momentary flickers gleam defiant toward the dark— For just one passing moment, revel, child of ley and rune! Brilliance unfettered for each solitary spark! The journey long and arduous, each ruined world held dear The ages wear upon the mantle, wounds too old to mend But when your star-trail burns too low and weathered by the years— Come home, oh cosmic wanderer; hold fast against the end. 1. An elderly krokul woman walks toward a shattered greenhouse on Argus, surrounded by ruins and broken terrain. 2/3: She walks into the greenhouse looking over her shoulder, and then down to something in her pack with joy. 4: Holding a brilliantly glowing flower, she looks upon it with tenderness. 5: A large view of the greenhouse, with plants of all kinds giving it life. A pillar of water rises to greet her out of a small rocky pond. SCRIPT: But what of earthbound guardians, so blessed to know the loam? From soft beginnings bloom great things, e’er striving toward the light Oft overlooked, enduring, do they wait below the known These tender hands and stolen moments wards against the night Their future is not grandiose, nor destiny profound Though stone and sea remain when all is claimed by final sleep. Yet needed are the tides of change, to cleanse but never drown; All children of the underneath find mercy in the deep Beloved pearl of rocky shores, of strength eroded clean How worn you wear your tapestry, so frayed but still your own— When facets dulled by time hold on to one last sparkling sheen, Come home, oh sleepy siren; there awaits a softer throne. 1. The mage from pg.1 flies in an arcane comet trail past the Exodar, looking upon it mirthfully as he passes over the forest. 2. A crowd view of various Eredar/Man'ari, Draenei, and Lightforged in a town square. The comet trail can be seen above. 3. The mage skims over the water on the coastline, arriving toward the krokul woman on the sand, raising her cane in greetings. 4. Mage slows his flight to land, both reach fondly to one another, holding hands. The man conjures arcane Forget-Me-Nots behind the woman's ear. 5. The couple walks along the beach, with the Exodar visible behind them, and flowers in the foreground. A mark of the Sha'tor is carved on a tree. SCRIPT: Return, oh weary comet, and may tide arrive to shore, And with you every aching scar attended at the source Allow your tired shoulders to set down the hurts you bore, For winter’s twilight turns to spring, if hope can stay the course Woe and weal may linger, but there is still work to do: People, places, things to know, and wisdom yet to give Catharsis can be found when one alone returns to two, You've still got time to pen the book of stories yet unlived This final journey’s rightly earned, with all its joys and pains, Tomorrow isn't promised but the light inside remains— So lay down all your grief and walk the way that's yours to roam. Enjoy this world and love her well: your heart is finally home.
