art log 01

this is like my third time writing this now, i think the main reason i'm a bit lazy / been putting this off is because i can't just. screenshot art program -> post image & i actually have to save them as files -_-

this went from a "reminiscing about my old art" to "art log with commentary" and i think im just gonna do whatever now.

collections will be pretty unorganized for the most part, i'll try to keep the dates chronological but i just want to show off the art ive done recently. ive had this in the works since some time in 2024 so i might as well free it from my drafts.

oh yeah, it was my birthday last march 17! happy birthday to me.

this is gonna be a long post, answer this real quick?

i made this whole fake VN confession screenshot thing for valentines with help from my girlfriend. this was more of a self indulgent thing for the ocs because this would NEVER happen, but hey. i like drawing them blushy and cute. these are only a few of the ocs of course and the cast is only going to get bigger - which one are you asking out on a date? (vote below!)

Art of a character standing on a roofdeck at sunset. He is smiling, hiding a box of chocolates behind him. He says, 'Would you believe me if I told you... I came here to ask the exact same thing?' Art of a character leaning on a rooftop balcony, the sunset over a cityscape behind her. He looks at the viewer, saying, 'Mm. I think I'd like that.' A character sitting at a parking lot outside a restaurant, illuminated by the store light behind him. He replies with what is assumed to be the viewer's confession: 'Really? I - I mean sure, that sounds nice.' Art of a character hugging a pillow, looking at the viewer and blushing. She replies to the viewer's confession, saying, 'I accept. So, what do you wanna do next?'' It is golden hour, the sun is coming in through a window and lighting up her room. She has snake bite piercings, scales, and long ears. Art of a character standing outside at night, illuminated by a nearby lamp. She is surprised, looking at the viewer. She says, 'Oh! I. I actually feel the same way too... I'd love to.'

i really wanted to do a short in-browser game that was clickable and had animated text, but alas - i got too excited and just posted these on their own already. while i got pretty far (character select screen into actual character scene with javascript), i kind of lost motivation and ended up giving up. if you can find the page on this site you could probably test it out.

since my last blog post.., (2024)

Pina playing the bass standing up, 'Scott Pilgrim vs the World' style. Compilation of doodles of vampire hunter August and vampire Akeno. Pina playing the bass while lying on her back. Vampire hunter August holding vampire Akeno by the collar.

A snake kemonomimi with colorful braids and a universe-themed outfit. She has a Chinese tassel necklace and a braided choker. A snake kemonomimi chibi in flowy, baggy clothing. She is holding a snake. Akeno politely smiling at the viewer. Text on top says 'i <3 long-haired bisexual men'. A portrait of Falin from Dungeon Meshi.

ding ding ding i made the snake. her hair and scales are supposed to be iridescent. our only guidelines for the outfits were for them to look celestial and to have a chinese knot as part of their outfit so they all have something in common.

Photo of the snake girl potrait concept sketch. Colored digital sketch of the snake girl chibi. Photo of the snake girl chibi sketch. Photo of an earlier iteration of snake girl's outfit.

chinese zodiac oc concept/wip sketches

i spent maybe 2 weeks trying to figure out her outfit, going back and forth between looking at changshan pictures and fashion lookbooks. eventually i just settled on something ive actually worn before.

ive also got a couple of other photocards, though theyre either all fanart or as gifts/trades for others. making photocards for friends is pretty fun, but i feel like if i turned it into a commission thing it'd probably be too much.

Digital art of Ulpianus from Arknights in a maid outfit. It has a chest window, a frilly choker, and a frilly apron. A chibi drawing of him sitting on an anchor is drawn in the corner. Digital art of Logos from Arknights in a maid outfit, smiling slightly. He is holding up his pen, smiling slightly. Beside him is a chibi version of Logos holding a tray. Digital portrait of Mlynar from Arknights. He is wearing a maid outfit, his button up is too tight for him. A chibi version of him is drawn in the corner. A digital portrait of Kal'tsit from Arknights. She is wearing a suit, adjusting her blazer collar. In the corner is a chibi drawing of her standing. A portrait of Gladiia from Arknights. She is wearing a suit with the blazer over her shoulders, and a lace choker. A chibi version of her is drawn beside her.

arknights maids and butler photocards. they came in a set with the chibi art as a sticker!

i enjoyed making them and i enjoyed them a lot more a couple weeks ago LOL, though thats mostly because i dont really play or follow arknights anymore. ive started doing this thing where when i play a grindy game i just think, "why am i even doing this. what is my end goal" and it just kills my motivation completely

Thumbnail sketches for the Arknights photocards. Ulpianus, Logos, Mlynar, Kal'tsit, Gladiia, and Degenbrecher are drawn.

photocard sketches. never got to draw degenbrecher, huh

A sticker sheet composed of several Bocchi the Rock scenes and drawings. Three scene redraws from Bocchi the Rock. Nijika handing Bocchi a soda can in front of the vending machines, Ryo and Bocchi at the cafe, and Kita determinedly grabbing Bocchi's hand. Portraits of the Kessoku Band members. Bocchi standing, smiling at the viewer. Behind her is a bright blue sky and a large cloud.

bocchi the rock sticker sheet art. this took me a WHILE to make, but i'm happy with how it came out. i hope i can say the same for when it prints.

im using a bsky link i hope this works. porter robinson fanart

oc art (2025)

now that i have a lot of free time ive been making lots of oc art - ive designed a few new ones!

Three drawings of a deer woman kemonomimi, she poses playfully. In the corner are the trans and bi flags. Sketches of a deer woman kemonomimi. One chibi says 'Born Filipino. Raised swagapino' and another drawing says 'let's take estrogen together'.

camille. the head of a cleanup crew type group to help freearms clean up the scene after a job. also dating ethan (inspired by my girlfriend, if you couldnt tell)

Art of a fake tinned octopus can, with two women, Elke on the left, and Char on the right, standing in front of each other. Title reads: 'Adobong Pugita. Octopus in soy vinegar.'' Display text on top of the couple says, 'What a catch!'' Additional manufacturing information is in the bottom left. Four drawings of a woman. She has wavy hair and a red bomber jacket. The trans and lesbian flags are on top of her.

charlotte, char for short (hey, does her name and the previous character's name remind you of anything?). helps out with her family's commercial fishing business and also provides bodyguard services a freearm. this will be important later.

Four stickers related to puns and jokes about music genres. Hyperpop has a character in front of a screen with the Serum VST, opening a soda can. Shoegaze has a character looking down at her shoe, pressing on a pedal while playing bass. Prog rock has a character tuning a guitar in front of a computer saying, 'hello world'. Math rock has a character in front of a whiteboard with math equations.

this is about as recent as it gets. as you can see, i went back to making more merch designs. i wanted to add more stickers to the rotation and hopefully retire some that im not as proud of anymore. and also because i'm applying to smash and i want to make my portfolio look better.

theres probably a lot more i can and want to say but - i think its better for me to start fresh on a new HTML file instead of rewriting this a fourth time. if you've reached the end, thank you for reading, and see you in the next blog post!

god i hope i remember how to add this to the rss feed
