Also! I finally have crossed the 1000-follower mark here on Tumblr!

At one point, back in 2018, I had gotten close to hitting 1k (I was at 880 followers) for the first time, ever, literally anywhere! But then Tumblr took its nose dive, and I moved to Twitter to give this stuff another fresh start.

But now that I'm back here, it's nice to see that I was finally able to hit a long-time goal.

Anyhow, here is a series of art pieces I made during my ladder climb for Youtube, Twitter, and Tumblr at different times.

There was an OC challenge meme thingy I had done a while ago. I'm not sure if the designs had made it here before I moved over to Twitter, but I feel it would be fun to at least share them here if anything.

I ever made drew up a new one based on the list that I wasn't able to finish at the time.

I don't think I could ever actually wear a crop top haha

Thank you for the warm welcome back! I never truly wanted to leave Tumblr, but it became such a task to support both Twitter and Tumblr.

But it's not impossible to do, as I see other art buddies do it all the time. So I want to challenge myself to not rely on just one platform to share my art.

With that being said, I'm happy to be back. Most importantly, I'm happy to be able to have fun sharing things with you guys again! <3

I remember starting to work on the comic as I started getting into JoJo. I started putting together all these fun ideas for where this story was going to go. I can't remember why I fully stopped working on it, but I know a part of it was burnout. The second part is that I think due to the absence of Bear Boy some people just didn't care too much.

It's related to the same canon, but I felt like just shelving it until it's time to bring it back in the future.

Bringing this one back! It's been a while since I drew my boy Wreck-It Ralph, but I really should do so again because he is really cool.

Some artwork of Saltydkdan. Look at him go! His moves are very... menacing!

Whenever LS_Mark and I finally sit down to do a collab this will most likely still be the background I use. This was themed for a Sonic panel. It could be used for anything, but I definitely want to at least use it for Sonic at least once haha.

Haha thanks my dude!

This was a really nice piece that I had never shared here. This collab for the Bear show was supposed to be the biggest at the time, but it never came to be.

I was really enjoying planning out the future that I sat down to do the background and make it as nice as I could. (Important to note that I did not draw the dunkey paintings)

The streets in back of the restaurant were going to be filled with submitted art of artist's OCs as they walked about. Giving a little extra life to the space. Going from doing 1-on-1 interviews in the Bear Cave to doing one with multiple rad people was going to be really cool to challenge myself.

I hold a lot of respect for getting to collab with those who take the time to do so with me. But, alas, this episode never came to be. At least not at the moment and probably won't ever happen as originally intended.

A character I had drawn for the Bear Boy show. Her name is Djinnae. I haven't had the chance to use her in the story yet, outside of a little tease in my interview with Hat-Loving Gamer.

I really love her design and think she's just another one of my charming characters. She's supposed to be an in-universe online streamer. Who knows, if she never makes her way into the show maybe there's hope in the game.

Winter time is approaching.

I should probably post more of the old art first and then work my way up to the new art instead of just going with some of the new stuff I like first haha.

I forgot completely why I gave myself a pompadour here, but I knew it was for funsies. Anyhow, here's that for you guys to enjoy.

Making a slow come back

I'm going to start uploading stuff here, and over on Instagram soon. I promise. I've just been swamped with so much work. But I want to thank you guys for following me over here. It's time to start reviving these spaces I used to use.

I don't really ever play visual novels, and I felt that as someone who is working on one I owed it to myself to get a hands on experience with one of the games. So, due to the type of game I'm working on I chose Dream Daddy

Unfortunately, I didn't get to play it until recently. However, it was definitely worth the wait to get to stream my experience through it. If I wasn't such a busy creator myself I would've stream all routes this month, but I got my fill out doing Brian's route (Which I really enjoyed so much).

This game is honestly really wholesome and I really love it a lot. The characters are great and everything just feels so real. It's a quirky game that just pulls you in and I feel like I've learned a lot, not just as some one who is working on a visual novel, but as a person.

Taking care of Amanda and helping her grow as she's helped me was very heartfelt. We both experienced a lot in just a short time of playing that game and I'm really glad I finally gave it a chance.

A huge shout out to the devs behind this awesome game <3 @dreamdaddygame

Ok I decided to draw one more to finish off the Asgore set. Nothing like a hug to say goodbye. 🫂
