diversity in your character designs and artwork makes you a stronger artist, period. trying to draw something you haven’t before w/ reference- even if the result isn’t what you’d like yet- will be infinitely more beneficial for you than sticking to what’s comfier to draw atm regardless of art style

I'm rewatching more MLP and there's a moment where Fluttershy is dreaming about getting her mane brushed and she goes 'it's so nice to be the pet for once'
What she mean with that? 👀

Maybe tomorrow I'll return to this silly doodle and like, actually draw some homestuck cross over fun stuff. You have no idea how much those two have in common and how often I think about which classpects the Sonic cast would have.

Sometimes I remember I can draw anything I want.
So I drew (roughly) how Xeffie and Gamzee became matesprits, sort of, well it's where it started. Xefuma needed a bit more time.

If anyone asks me why I like Caliborn, a horrible little goblin meant to represent the worst in fandom it's because the perspective and circumstances have changed and I suddenly understand Caliborn PERFECTLY. Let me elaborate.

Perhaps today I will finally, FINALLY start making those pony zodiac sign adoptables. I've been wanting to for MONTHS now and never got around to it but I have a base that requires little editing and it could be done with a little elbow grease.
Heck, I could finish one today.
