I like to draw and review books, and I enjoy weird and bad books like you would enjoy a bad movie. I even make videos about them sometimes.
I definitely bit off more then I could chew. I've invested so much work into this review though that I can't abandon it. After I'm done with it I will be changing how I do things, not sure exactly what, but something.

For fun I did some emotes. I just needed to draw something simple and not for the project I’ve been working on for ages.

Proof I am working on the illustrations for the next full illustration review. Cookies to anyone if they can figure out what book the review is for. I think this is a pretty decent hint ;)

I’m still slowly working on a big video. But stuff kinda got in the way. A few family emergencies, and my own health issues. Trying new meds is such trial and error and sometimes the side effects are awful. Good news is I’m feeling pretty good right now. So maybe the newest stuff is working.

I’m not above admitting my guilty pleasures. Sometimes I just want a good revenge and power fantasy. But I draw the line at it being boring. The tone in this one is also way too light for the horrible atrocities the main character does at the end.

Another character reference for my sister @suburbansiren.bsky.social their name is Axel. She pays me with food, though the amount of laces might have killed me a little lol. I worked so hard on them for them to be barely noticeable.

A character ref for a my sister @suburbansiren.bsky.social I helped design some of the visual aspects, and she gave me some inspiration refs. So art wise a collaborative effort, but the character belongs to her.

Sometimes I draw stuff for my sister @suburbansiren.bsky.social It's usually fanart of a character named Detective Void. He was in a SCP webseries. The smilling mask is named Brian. Bluesky doesn't seem to like pixel art, so I didn't add a pixel image I did for her.

Thanksgiving is coming up and Lizzie just wants it to be normal, but the universe has other plans. Between a Dad who wants a tofu turkey, and an evil paper turkey Lizzie might not even survive the holiday. A very weird 90s book. #bookreview #illustratedbookreview

A scene shot that I am quite happy with. I think in conveys the feelings I was going for. It's an older piece but still good. Most of my newer work are quick pieces, not ones that I spend hours on.

Anyone remember reading the Berenstain Bears as kids? I adored the picture books but they also made chapter books. They are very 90s, and go places the picture books couldn’t. Check out my review for the first four books.

The problem with big projects is they take time. I ended up doing a short easier review so I could post something. It’s weird to take breaks on one review by doing a different one. On one hand it means more videos out on my channel on the other it means delaying my big video.

Callie just wants to enjoy Halloween, but a local mom wants to ban it. Can Callie save Halloween or will the adults tell her to sit down and be quiet? Here is a hint: The ending isn't satisfying and I want to pick an actual fight with some of the adults in this book.
