balloon

a vent comic about being a 'gifted kid', gaining a disability, depression, rsd...all of the above as someone who has experienced or just has all of the above.

the first part of a comic. 1 of 3.

the first panel has a purple balloon on it.
it reads:
"i realized recently that i feel like a balloon."
"filled to feel 'lighter than air.'"

the second panel has the purple balloon floating past clouds.
it reads:
"once i was able to fly high with the clouds and the birds."
"and i realize i've been trying to chase that high for a while."

2 / 3

the first panel has a balloon that is close to the pavement.
it reads:
"but really, i've just deflated."
"and have been reluctant friends with the ground for even longer."

the second panel shows a hand with a needle popping the balloon.
it reads:
"these days it feels like i've been popped."

3 / 3

the first panel shows the popped balloon on the ground
it reads:
"i feel like i've embraced the ground i so desperately don't want to be close to."

the second panel shows the burst balloon with tape and glue next to it, but none of it on the balloon.
it reads:
"and i feel like no amount of 'fixing' will help me fly again."

incensed this evening about not being able to draw my characters as much as i wanted, so i did some messy doodles over the last hour...

some of my characters from my reimagined project.

mollis | primam | tandem | ros

#doodles

a messy sketch of a girl who looks like she's kneeling and holding onto a sniper rifle looking to the viewer's left. her hair is flowing in the wind behind her and looks like they're in twin braids. she has a smile on her face with a determined look.

a messy sketch of a woman who has her arms out. her eyes are colored purple with a slight glow. lightning is arcing around her and even running up her arms a bit. her skirt is billowing out, and her hair seems to be blowing to the viewer's left.

a messy drawing of a man leaping in the air, he seems to have two swords readied for attack, but only one of them is really discernible. he is looking toward the viewer's left with a clenched jaw and teeth bared -- there is an angry look on his face.

a drawing of a man with a staff pointed toward the viewer's right. the man is also looking toward the viewer's right while his hair is blowing behind him.

My art trade with @freejayfly.bsky.social featuring their wonderful character from the world of FFXV, Ros. The first month was a Genndy Tartakovsky-inspired style and theme was firework. I tried.

8. Fav OC ship

Are we talking purely OCs, or canon x OC as well? Because my favorite purely OC ship is Jaydin x Myrddin (Haunted Memories) with @myrdoodles.bsky.social (first art by him as well).
Otherwise, it's Primam x Prompto (Quicksilver Dancers), and Nomin x Estinien (Cinnamon).

Doodled for #WoLstinienWeek2024 's Day 3, AU. In which I was watching a lot of Digimon Adventure Tri and drew my FFXIV OTP as Digidestined.

Two teens are depicted with two digimon. There is a girl and a boy. The girl is smiling, standing slightly behind the boy and looking at him. Her skin is a medium tan, her eyes are teal, and her hair is a light blue, long, braided, and the braid is over her right shoulder. The boy is a little taller and has a less amused look on his face, his arms folded over his chest. He is looking at the viewer, has silver hair tied back in a ponytail, has dark gray eyes, and a light complexion. One of the digimon is on the girl's shoulder, it looks like patamon, but is blue and white with feathered wings on its head instead. The other digimon is on the boy's shoulder and looks like agumon, but is a dark purple with red eyes instead of orange with green eyes.

that one meme, but it's the ship that rots my brain

An au ra and an elezen from Final Fantasy XIV are depicted together. The au ra is standing while the elezen is sitting. The au ra is female and is a xaela, her skin is a relatively dark, muted blue, and her hair is long, braided over her shoulder, and is a light blue in color. She is being embraced with one hand by and to the elezen, who is looking up at her from his seated position, his nose and mouth pressed against the side of her ribcage. The elezen is Estinien, and has relatively pale peach skin and silver, long hair. They are both dimly lit in nighttime shading.

i tried vtubing once. here's the reference sheet that i made.

my partition broke and all of my settings disappeared in one day & i never had the heart to go back.

maybe we'll see the return of daimon. but it's not today.
