Fangirling Ahoy

@sparkwithinme / sparkwithinme.tumblr.com

The personal tumblr of some artist/crafter gal, who likes anime, video games, a whole lotta N1, 80's cartoons and all sorts of other what-not. Also Thunderbirds. A lot. And FFXIV, a huge lot. Which is my current main content. lol See links below for my other blogs!

I really didn't realize how long it's been since I posted... gosh. x_x Apologies for being mia so bad... I have been lurking a bit, but yeah. Uh. Life sure has been happening. lol Have few things I will probably post, but I hope you can all forgive me if I plug a thing first?

SO I'm taking commissions again. This time just sketch ones, as I don't think I have it in me to do full finished work right now. Since keeping things simple, using Ko-Fi for this!

(Trying to raise funds to get a new desktop that isn't 15 years old, so I can continue to play and stream FFXIV (my desktop couldn't even run the benchmark cry XD), but also have lot of software and things I want to do that I haven't been able to... I really need something not so vastly behind. lol)

More examples: (5.4 Spoilers)

Commissions open with a new commission sheet. ^.^ For more examples, my work can be found mainly be found on my Tumblr all under this tag, but some ancient work is kicking around on Deviantart. Also post things on my main twitter.

Prices are in USD.

I now have a Commission Form to make getting the ball rolling easier!

For a quick run down, keep reading! :D

It only took me forever and then some, but I finally found inspiration for my cottage. English cottages, to be exact. XD Though mine here is missing ceiling beams... I decided to forgo them for now with a promised item increase on the horizon. Lookin' forward to that! haha

But yeah :D If anyone wants to have a "in person" peek at it, Aether, Adamantoise, Lavender Beds, W4, P12.

Apparently, I started this a few weeks after I’d finished ShB and it’s patches, which was sometime like... fall 2021... so this has only taken me... 16 months to finally finish...ish. Good enough anyways. lol ^^; At that point I was so full of ShB brainworms... This in particular is 5.0.

Of bookshelves and being vertically challenged. :D

(Started this not long after new years... just buncha sketches that I thought I might eventually try to put together into some semblance of order.....never planned to fully clean it and colour it, of all things. But things happened and here we are. Tablet pen really pissed off my thumb, so taking a break for a bit. lol Did tweak the third page a bit since my posting on twitter couple days ago... very much have no idea what I’m doing when comes to comic things. lmao)

Toddler vs. Cowl  ...Lyna 1, G’raha 0

(Given Lyna mentions post 5.0 he has a glint in his eye she’s never seen before... I certainly believe she actually knew what was beneath the hood. There’s no way he raised her from an infant and she didn’t see, imho. No amount of hood-keep-on magic could stop the force that is a toddler. XD)

Months later I finally finished cleaning this up. (Even got brave enough to post it to twitter, lmao. Only to then realize as went to post to tumblr today I’d goofed up the scarf pattern slightly (fixed now)... course I’m sure I’m the only one who noticed. 😂) There’s probably other things I shoulda worked on, BUT ANYHOO. lol

Ah gosh... Ta everyone for all the new reblogs and stuff of my art. :D Much appreciated!

....but okay. Also. Tumblr? DO YOU OKAY?

WHY ARE YOU GIVING ME A MENTION NOTIF FOR A MENTION MADE SIX YEARS AGO.

What on earth. XDa

Anyhoo, hi yes, I’m alive. Somewhat. Sorta. Yeah. |D Endwalker has just... YEE GODS, my feels. You have no idea. I’ve been sparing you all for the most part, but please be sure to black list ‘Endwalker Spoilers’ if you’re a XIV player (orrrr not a XIV player and don’t wanna see this stuff at all XD) cause I got some things to post soon. lol

^^^^^ This nice almost finished being cleaned drawing was a insomnia doodle... that I expanded and started cleaning up because IDEK why I was. I hadn’t intended to colour it or anything. But then more thoughts of the scene came... Then also another entirely different thing... that then my brain at  6am this morning (after sleeping... not insomnia for a change lol) went: WAIT. I CAN PUT BOTH IDEAS TOGETHER. This is 11 odd hours of work. It’s super rough/WIPness. It needs fixing up a lot, but I have absolutely broken my drawing hand, so it might be a few days before I can even start to tackle it. I decided to yolo and post it to make what I did to my hand worth something. 😂
