Hm, I can't find nebula.tv app on my TV, I wonder if there's a trick to it, let's check the FAQ-

ah

of course
A creenshot of the following text: As of November 2023, LG has removed the Nebula app from app stores in 46 countries due to our inclusion of LGBTQ+ content. Unfortunately this is beyond our control. If you are unable to find the Nebula app on a supported TV model, this is likely the reason why.

Doodled an NPC for the #dungeonsanddragons campaign I'm planning for my friends.
Her name is Coign Verhoeven, and she is very tired of running this whole operation. No, she won't take a break.
A digital drawing of a tiefling. She has mustard skin, golden ram horns, and reddish-brown hair in a high ponytail. She is dressed in brown and purple medieval-style clothes. She ois holding a massive book and a writing feather. She seems to be tired and grumpy.

Not a tablet pen, but I'm pretty sure the grip would be the same

A doodle of an original character I made for my friend so they didn't have to resort to generative ai
A digital illustration of a bald man. He has light skin with pink swirls, reminiscent of fingerprints, across his scalp, back and shoulder. The swirls give off external swirls of energy, that radiates around the man in white and light pink. The background is yellow in the middle and gradients into dark blue on the edges. It's the same digital illustration but the background is white so you can see the outer swirls of energy in blue, orange, and pink.

Sundown #photography
A photo taken at sunset, overlooking a lake. In the background a ridge of distant hills lie under the setting sun. In the center of a shot, there is an old boat filled with water. The sky is orange from the sun, fading into pale grey, and the water is steely with the boat and the shore being almost black.

Evening cumulus #photography
A photograph taken in the evening of a power line tower in a rural area. In the foreground, there is dark green grass and a birch tree. In the background, there is a line of birch forest and a deep blue sky. Near the horizon, a group of cumulus clouds is painted orange and blue by the setting sun.

My new blorbo - Alişan. He is a flight attendant at Turkish Airlines. What he does in his free time is none of your business 😳 #oc #art #doodle
A digital sketch of Alişan, a young man with thick eyebrows, curly hair and a professional smile. He wears a Turkish Airlines Flight attendant suit, and has his hands held on the stomach level, as if greeting you on board. A digital drawing of Alişan, a young man with thick eyebrows, curly hair and a gentle smile. He is wearing jeans and a T-shirt with a deep v-neck. He wears a collar and a chain hangs from it and out of the frame. Wonder who is holding it A close-up of Alişan's face. He has thick eyebrows, short curly hair, long nose, and a gentle smile. You can see the chest hair peeking from the deep v-collar of his T-shirt and a collar with a chain.

Gotta use this as a reaction for everything in my life

Spring Morning & Starry Night

I experimented with #watercolours this week and it's a lot of fun. I was never taught traditional painting so it's fun to figure things out. Is it obvious I find it fun drawing spruces? 😄
A watercolours painting of a foggy landscape with spruces in the middle and a wet asphalt road in the foreground. Everything is mostly grey and brown. A watercolours painting of a purple starry sky with a greenish-yellow streak of northern lights. There are dark spruces in the foreground.

Also, here's a completely unrelated* screenshot of Bellara that I loved.
A screenshot of Bellara, a companion character from Dragon Age: The Veilguard. She is an elf with a tall hairdo, an eye-shaped valaslin (face tattoo) and a wide earring made of multiple triangles. She looks worried but also, perhaps, utterly in love /wink wink nudge nudge/

She is a lesbian, your grace.

Finishing my second playthrough of Dragon Age: The Veilguard to cope with all the news of the past week.
A screenshot of Rook, a player character from Dragon Age: The Veilguard. She is a Qunari with one broken horn and one pink iris, wearing Lords of Fortune casual clothes and smiling. Her posture and the whole vibe is very butch lesbian (which she is). A screenshot of Rook, a player character from Dragon Age: The Veilguard. She is a Qunari with one broken horn and one pink iris. This is a close-up of her face where she is smirking.

And here is the best stylish boy Dario. This turtleneck is Dima's whole sexuality tbh
A digital drawing of Dario, who is a bald man with short facial hair, a large mole on the head and a silver earring. He is wearing a black turtleneck with beige trousers and brown shoes, and has a grey overcoat. There is a teal necklace hanging on his chest.

Thinking about him but specifically this silly illustration I drew back in the day (meant to be NY 2021). What a time it was, huh #OC #newyear #art
An illustration of four people on a walk at New Years night in Saint Petersburg, Russia. A couple in the back are a man (Alex) and a woman (Marina), both dressed warmly and carrying a plastic cup. A couple in front is two men (Dima and Dario). Dima is wearing a Snegurochka crown and braids and waves around a 'champaigne' bottle (oh, I can't describe Soviet Champaigne to you); he is drunk and full of joy. Dario has a tinsel thrown over his shoulders and is seen pouring out 'champaigne' from the platic cup, knowing well he is not made to drink this stuff.

Saw a Pomeranian on my walk today. Please, enjoy this mouse #art of it.
A mouse-drawn picture of a fluffy black void with four legs and two large eyes. There is a red leash too. Apparently, this is a Pomeranian.

I'm now posting the prequel novel for my Hopestar serious, this one focusing on Robert and Nikolai when they were teenagers.

I gotta say, this is the best thing I've ever written. You don't need to read the previous books to start this one.

Hopestar 0: Take-Off on Tapas tapas.io/series/Hopes...
Cover for the book, featuring a red stylised star rising above the horizon of a red planet. Below is the title - Hopestar: Take-Off

So happy a good chunk of the world acknowledges it's a day of celebration today - this idiot's birthday 😛

Dima is the MC of my webcomic PEREMEN! (indefinite hiatus, but you can read on tapas) and the prequel romance novel I'm currently writing.

Drew this back in 2023. (In 2024 he'd be in prison)
A drawing of Dima, a man with brown hair and beard, wearing a pink t-shirt, and holding a glass of whiskey, with a dark backdrop. The same drawing but without any colour.

QRT with the art you're proud of from 2024!

I barely draw nowadays, so the idea for this picture was stuck in my head for months before I suddenly had some motivation and put in more effort than into anything in the past few years.
An illustration of an astronaut looking up at a blue, green and brown planet. They seem to be in awe of the view.

Welp, I also drew Dima from 2013 (the main character of my webcomic PEREMEN!)
Drawing him without beard feels so wrong, but continuity demands!

A close up photo of a chonky lop-eared cat with wide eyes. It seems like she is both shocked and scandalized but what she sees.
