#Inktober Day 5: Deer
I was driving home really late at night and a deer appeared in the middle of the road just standing there. I slammed my brakes and luckily avoided hitting it, literally inches away. I'll never forget that night.

#Inktober Day 2: Weave
Experimenting with dry brush really like how the texture came out. The image shows a puppet weaving endless strings at a loom.

Built a new PC inspired by the AE86 Trueno in Initial D, one of my favorite anime/manga. It's "running in the 90..." 60 XT 😆
Cue eurobeat music.

#Todayilearned in British English, the word "Cancelled" is spelled using two L's whereas in American English, "Canceled" is spelled with one L.
Totally makes sense. Ever since the British lost the American Revolutionary War, they had to take their 'L' back.

In the first Rocky movie, Rocky Balboa loses to Apollo Creed. In Rocky II, Rocky defeats Apollo. If the Eagles win tomorrow, it's like they say "art imitates life."
With that said LFG #eagles!
