Today I experimented and after a few times starting over I managed to crochet a Pokéball with a tennis ball inside. 🎉🎉🎉
I was crocheting a Pokéball with a tennis ball inside. It is about 3/5 of the way done here. Testing to see if the tennis ball fit right. The crochet around the tennis ball! It turned out so lovely! A Pokéball crocheted around a tennis ball. Glorious. After adding the button for the Pokéball. It fits so nicely in my palm and is also quite bouncy.

I sketched Deku again. And again. And I thought… what if I drew him 100 times? 🤔

Tonight I finished this Izuku sketch. I was working on hair. And cross hatching. Deku is so flipping precious. Even with his crazy, stupid, beautiful, green hair.

Day 22 of Figure Artober! Did a Deku sketch and some back muscles. I did more today, but they look so bad. 😅 I’m at that part where I can see the issues better than I can fix them. I’ve hit this wall before with my art, and I’ll get past it.

Day 9 of Figure Artober. I sketched some arms real quick and then got frustrated so now I’m stopping. Just not feeling the artsy flow today. But I got some practice in anyway! 😎

A page in my sketchbook with four very quick sketches of arms. It was a rough art day and I didn’t feel like doing it. But I pushed through and got some sketching in so it’s a win.

Day 4 of Figure Artober! I’m getting better at male chests but learned that I very much struggle with female chests. Higher, further, faster, baby.
