Been doodling during my break at work

(Left is the old version from last week before I updated procreate, and right is the one I started sketching yesterday/today)
truly shows that sometimes you just gotta start from scratch to get some better results
Screenshot of the Procreate drawing App. The artwork shows a character with shoulder length hair staring dead on into the camera with their finder in front of their mouth, making a "hush" gesture. The colour schem is dark purples and a bright yellow-orange as a highlight colour. Screenshot of the Procreate drawing App showing a much better artwork. The artwork shows a character with shoulder length hair staring dead on into the camera. their hands are raised and cover parts of their face almost as if another person was trying to grab them from behind. The colour scheme is desaturated and grey with the only pop of colour being the character's piercing golden eyes.

[✨ 2025 Art - Reference Sheet ]
Finally updated my design fully and sat down to design a ref sheet :3

---
#ENVtuber #Vsky #RefSheet #Vtuber
A handdrawn reference sheet showcasing my Virtual Avatar, who is a brown haired guy with brown wings emerging from his hair and two braids. He is wearing a blue, open blouse-like shirt with poofy sleeves and poofy white pants over some dark tights. The Fullbody artwork of him is in the center of the sheet with a closeup to the right underneath a handmade logo. To the left are some closeups of the details, such as his tights, glasses, and a memento with a butterfly. Immediately to the left of that are three expressions on showcase (Smiling, Embarrassed, and Stunned).

My villain origin story
A screenshot of Video Editing Program DaVinci Resolve. It shows that the program is in the process of potentially crashing as the window itself is somewhat whited out with the taskbar showing the dreaded "(Not Responding")-Message

✨☄️ Model Preview (🔇)

After 5 days of speedrun-rigging my model I'm at a point where I'm happy enough with it !

This proves to me that you can definitely make a usable rig in the Free version of Live2D :3

I finally got myself an ita bag after losing an enamel pin really liked 🥹

I may not be big enough to sell merch of my vtuber avatar, BUT nothing's stopping me from making merch and T-shirt designs for myself :D

Handdrawn artwork of a T-shirt design. The primary colour scheme is blue! On the left is the design for the front, showing an anime character making a heart-symbol with his hands. On the right is the design for the back, showing a pair of wings which has forget-me-not's growing from between several feathers.

Screenshot of a work in progress Vtuber Model. Only the head is rendered so far in a painterly style. The hair is looking fluffy and voluminous thanks to the rendering style chosen.

A screenshot of Clip Studio Paint, an art program. It shows an unfinished sketch of what is going to be a Vtuber model. Some of the hair of the character is already rendered, whilst other sections are still only roughly blocked out.

Backlit portrait of my Vtuber Avatar. He is looking somewhat disinterested towards the right. His hair is shoulder length and morphs into small wings towards the tips. Behind him is a halo that is acting as a light source in this artwork.

I think I'm cooking with this minor change to my design :3

#Artsky #Vtuber #VtuberEn #Sketch
Sketch with minimal colouring. The character in the artwork is looking shily at the camera, blushing. Half of their face is hidden behind a small wing that appears to be growing from their head/hair.

Screenshot showing two chibi-sketches exploring some character design. The character's hair is messy with two braids. In one character exploration the ears are reminiscent of wings. In the other the hair morphs into wings. Closeup of a chibi sketch. The hairstyle is messy with two braids. This version of the character has kitty ears and large faun-like freckles.

A work in Progress Photo of an acrylic painting on canvas board. There's large fluffy clouds against a vibrant blue sky with some mountains and a field in the foreground. The field is now dotted with pale yellow flowers. A vague outline of a white can is visible in the foreground.

A sketch of a silly little bean-shaped character looking up at a Dragon that is out of frame. A speech bubble is coming from the dragon: "You can come out now." with Alaina answering in a shy, but defiant "no"

Today's update on this painting!

I'm procrastinating on the meadow because I have no idea how to best approach it
at least the background is shaping up very nicely! :D

Things are slowly coming along !

The clouds are finally looking pretty okay, though I still have to figure out how to go about the mountains

"Trust in the Process" I say through gritted teeth as my painting is in the early 'everything looks ugly' stages

(WIP painting in acrylic paints on canvas board)
Photo of a canvas-board propped up against a desk. The painting on it shows a green hill with dark green foliage and the rough shapes of some mountains. The sky is a vibrant blue with fluffy white clouds.

I treated myself to a pair of kitty socks

I deserve to be a kitty cat
Photo taken from above of OPs legs. One of their feet is propped up on their knee to show off the underside of the Grey-striped kitty socks. The anti-slip grippies vaguely match the colour of the pink (printed on) toe beans and stripes. Photo of OPs legs stretched out, showing off the upper side of the striped kitty socks. They are very cute, fluffy, and warm.

FOUND IT
here's the link nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/userguide.html

plus important info highlights

I misremembered that it messed with stuff but it does make it a bit less effective it seems, but they did explicitely say to run nightshade after *every* change to the artwork
screenshot of the above link highlighting the section "run nightshade after any image modifications"
