I love how your artwork has gotten more and more intricate over the past year. Looking at the bronchi weave in and out is kinda mesmerizing. :)

I’m glad you like it! I think I spent around 3 hours-ish from drawing the prompt cards to finish.

Thank you! I’m happy that you like it! :)

Yeah! You should go for it! We’d love to have you on !inktober@sh.itjust.works :)

Yes, that’s exactly what they are. I only got them recently, and this was my first time drawing with them :)

Thank you, and yeah - the cards are a lot of fun. I tend to struggle with drawing if the creative brief is to open-ended, so these cards add some helpful constraints. :)

Thank you for the kind words and detailed observations! Thoughtful reactions like yours are really gratifying, and make the effort and time spent thinking of those creative quirks all worth it. :)

All of this was done on Procreate, and were done with a few purchased brushes that mimic pencil grain. Coincidentally someone in the group I shared this with had asked me to upload a timelapse, so I have a short 30-second timelapse and a much longer 30-minute timelapse.

I understand, and thanks! :)

It isn’t - I drew it.

Edit: Ah - I can understand having to ask cuz of the way I worded the title though. I just used prompt cards from a deck.

oh yeah, that’s true! i only really keep up with the tcg lately, and i had made this so long ago that it had never really occurred to me. i appreciate you pointing that out, haha

🩷 I’m glad you like him! My favorite parts of that character are that ornamental tie/clasp and the way he and his partner are casually holding hands.

Thanks! :)

This has been working for me, so here it is:

1. When you’re ready to fall asleep, pick a five to seven letter word (it can be longer if you can keep track of the letters). (e.g. - “Candle”)

2. For each letter, pick an animal. (e.g. - “C is for Cat”)

3. To the best of your ability, try and picture that animal in as much detail as you think is appropriate. (e.g. - “It’s seated but not laying down. It has cinnamon-colored fur, short. Its nose is pink, etc.”

4. Move on to the next letter and do steps 2 & 3 for each letter.

5. If you finish a word, pick another word, and repeat the same process.

Apparently this mimics the random-ish thought pattern that precedes sleep, and supposedly signals to your brain that the environment is safe enough to sleep.

I forget where I picked this up. This was just one of those things where you go, “Oh - that sounds interesting. I’ll guess I’ll give it a shot if I happen to remember it when I’m trying to fall asleep.” It wasn’t something that I ever really expected to work for me.

Two of em were, but the middle two I hadn’t ever seen before, so thanks for sharing! :)

Both of your posts are really cool! I dig your style. :)

Guns would definitely fuck up the roof of my mouth :(

Is this a joke riffing on the fact that May 9th is Go(5) Ku(9) day?

Superb. 😩🤌 Thank you 💕

Me too! :)

I opened up the comments to say that it was reminiscent of Lane Smith artwork, particularly “The Stinky Cheese Man and other Fairly Stupid Fairy Tales” but I can see how it would remind you of Scary Stories artwork, too. :)
