1999 - 2025.

26 years of my life right here.

That's about 76k hours. There have been seasons in my life where I didn't paint at all, and seasons where I was painting 12-16 hours a day.

Keep going. You'll get there. <3

A very rudimentary sketch on old paper with coloured pencils of a feminine figure maybe with black and purple hair and pale skin and red eyes. It is made in a very childish fashion, and was created in 1999 by Runesael when they were 11. A portrait painted digitally in teal and red, with a smear effect across the face of the figure. They have short black hair and are wearing an outfit in rusts and blues. The background is black and red. They wear a jade pendant as a choker. Their expression is a slight smirk.

✨Time for more lizards and more mechs!✨

The charity fundraiser for the #AACR continues, so if you'd like to stick tape to me, get a silly sketch, or get art of your OC? For a donation, you can! (Or, order me to *not* paint!)

Live 1515 EST. :) (Nowish!)

WIP Concepts of the Ph'nib (1 ft tall lizard / gecko people) for stations and starships. Two blue lizards wear variations on white armor and black jumpsuits, a green lizard wears teal armour with a black and red and purple body suit, and a crested basilisk type lizard wears a deep blue and red uniform with red and gold trim.

Tavs and OCs welcome.

An individual with green and red heterochromia and a large hat gazes down at the viewer with a vaguely threatening aura. The ends of their hair have bells on them, and they wear a cloak with a loose scarf. They have matching red strips along the sides of their face where they hide their other eyes. A viera (rabbit person) from Final Fantasy 14 grins at something off canvas. Their hair is pulled into a half down half up style and they wear a bikini top and a Hawaiian shirt. They also have a heart on their cheek.

✨PH'NIB TIME! ✨

What's a Ph'nib? About a foot tall and they pilot giant mechs. We affectionately refer to them as "meckos."

We're raising funds for the #AACR with #PlayersvsCancer. There's sketch rewards! You can cover me in tape!

www.twitch.tv/runesael - 14:30 EST start!

✨Good afternoon! Today I’ll be playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and attempting an honor mode run with all wizards!✨

I’ll also have my iPad set up for sketch rewards for #PlayersVsCancer :) Ever wanted art of your Tav? Today might be the day!

See you at 1330 EST :D

This is a picture of a person with curly, luridly pink hair, and vibrant, iridescent scale makeup. Their glasses are also iridescent. They wear a silver sun charm around their neck, and wear a plaid shirt with strips of painters tape with users names on it. Behind them, there is a lightly cluttered office with many trinkets and Destiny 2 memorabilia.

So, today's stream is odd. We'll go 5-6:30 for some art, and then a quick break, and then come back for some dance games from 7-9pm. :)

(And hey, a new emote?) Sorry for the schedule, sleep has been rude.

✨Reminder we're fundraising with #PlayersvsCancer for the #AACR! ✨

This is a space goblin, a fuzzy little creature with a dyed blue mohawk and stars in their hair, doing a "wheeze" laugh. :) It is a square format and the character art is extremely simplistic and cartoonish.

✨Thank you to everyone who donated today for the #AACR with #PlayersVsCancer. ✨

My little stream raised $75 USD today. <333 Thank you to my amazing community for your big hearts.

Our top donator, BigBearBee, got this little mushroom friend in return for their generosity:
A little green mushroom friend sits on a mossy rib-bone, with little white accents and moss growing over their bioluminescent body. This image was created as a reward for a charity donation to the American Association for Cancer Research. <3

✨Hey! This is important!✨

For the rest of this month + October, I'll be streaming for the benefit of the AACR with Players vs. Cancer.

This will include art, rhythm games, ~and~ a Baldur's Gate 3 (honor mode!) play through on Thursdays!

By ✨ light ✨ at the end of the tunnel, do we mean train, or that we're almost done with this fearsome dragon lady? Gods, I hope it's the latter.

Live 14:30 - 20:30 EST. If we get done with work early, might be a treat in the way of some Project Zomboid RP. :)

Quick #sketch of Polly, a player character from fhe #projectzomboid RP server I’m part of.

A black and white sketch of a young woman looking over her shoulder at the viewer. The background is simple black and the focus is on the character’s face. She wears a worried / angry expression and her light hair is tousled around her face.

Tonight I passed my first two #DDR twelves and hit 12k in #ITG - I’m also starting to barely be able to handle some ITG 8s now. :)

I couldn’t pass DDR 9-10s last year, or ITG 7s even three months ago.

I’m really excited. My acc is still low and I miss notes but that’ll come with time. :)

Quinn Artemko, my #wta #werewolftheapocalypse character for a duet I’m playing in. They’re a Shadowlord diplomat who’s a bit of a nonconformist.

Quick 2 hour photobash, not a lot of time to devote to this but needed a portrait.

A work in progress sketch of a red-scaled and feathered Drovaki, a dragon-like individual from Stations and Starships. A greyscale head in progress is next to the character's original sketched head.

This is why my self representation is a fluffy little goblin.
A space goblin’s character sheet detailing that they are a goblin from space who takes up space who can be bribed with sushi and gummies. They are three and a half heads high and look like a cat kind of, with long fluffy ears and large dark eyes. They are from a world without colour, so they dress themselves in bright colours and wear bright face paint and makeup. They also dye their hair bright colours.

Back on my #projectzomboid RP nonsense again.

This is Mercedes, local midnight radio host and medium. She'll do you a tarot reading if you ask real nice.

(Mercedes also is the only character voice who's gotten my actual accent as well, lol.)

#art #illustration #oc
A femme-presenting individual with black hair and bright blue eyes stares pensively into the camera, her chin cupped in her hand. She wears a silver ring on her pinky finger, and has multiple facial piercings. Her black hair is tipped in pink, and the soft focus of the background emphasizes the character. She wears a black overcoat and is surrounded by blue reflected light. The background is also blue with a few accents of muted yellow to represent city lights.

Okay, that’s enough. If I make anymore feathers I’m gonna lose my marbles.

Maquette done enough to be useful I hope.

It’s a sculpture of a dragon held by a hand at the base.

This might be the most ridiculous way to do this, but by the gods it’s working.

#sculpting #art #TTRPG if you can believe it.

Got sick of fighting with blender to do something I already know how to do with my own damned hands. Maquettes FTW.
This is a photo of a WIP sculpture in grey of an alligator-like dragon head with feathers and front fangs. They have tough scaled ridges along the front of their neck and feathers along their eye ridge and cheek bones.

Yeesh. Well. Desperate times and all.

Feathers tomorrow. Good night.
A work in progress physical sculpture of a dragon’s head because Blender is the fucking worst and can step on a Lego.
