I did more fanart for you @smallpwbbles this time for the little bitty au. I don’t know what Monkie Kings looking at, you can choose who hes insulting.
@owldart I drew some art for your Time Travel Shenanigans au, they’re telling stories :D I also really like your Eclipse MK, the edgy bastard.
apparently ppl don’t know about waifu2x??? despite its… concerning name it’s literally the most convenient website i’ve ever come across as an artist
it allows you to resize artwork without it becoming pixellated. this is a MASSIVE help if you, for example, make lineart too small or something. it works best with things that 1. have no textures 2. have smooth lines 3. have cel shading, but it still works really damn well for things that don’t fit that profile
here’s an example:
normal size
2x in paint
2x in waifu2x
so like, there’s that. go wild
I made this for class and am proud! Seems like it could find a home on tumblr
OOO I LOVE THIS, I’M SO SORRY FOR THE LATE REBLOG, IT COMPLETELY SLIPPED MY MIND. I LOVE HOW YOU SHOWED LIU ER’S FRUSTRATIONS AND XIOATAIN’S BITTERNESS

The night had started out just fine, Macaque had managed to grab some extra food for him tonight. Xiaotian started from inside the metal prison. His half blind stare held little hope and Macaque still shivered under the sight of the blind eye. The conversation continued on but Xiaotian had a question he knew he shouldn't ask "Why did you try to kill the tang monk? You were friends with Wukong so why would you want to kill him?"
"Are you sure you wanna hear that? It's a long gory story" Macaque said. Xiaotian knew that the black furred monkey was going to tell him the story even if he tried to change the topic.
"Yeah," Xiaotian said with a sigh "it's not like I got much else to do"
Xiaotian heard Macaque snort "No you certainly don't kid," Macaque took a breath and turned himself so he only half faced Xiaotian ``We were best friends once, ya know that? We were so close, practically inseparable. I still remember the day he burst in and told me and the generals and the other marshel about how he had erased our names and the names of any other monkeys he could find, how we were freed from death itself."
A small sad laugh came from Macaque along with tears not that either of them would mention. "That was centuries ago. When Wukong challenged heaven we stood behind him and when All the other monkeys ran I did my best to stay until General Ba forced me to retreat, I still remember what they said to me 'it's okay to be brave but a good warrior knows when to put their weapon down, our king can handle this" Macaque sighed again "They kept telling me he'd be okay and back then when my fur was still white as the snow, I believed them. Soon enough our home was burned, I was burned, my fur turned to its present ashy state" a long sigh came from Macaque “I missed him alot when he was under that damned mountain" his voice shook and Xiaotian watched with a look of empathy in a way he could understand, he misses his best friends and his Dads' and his mentor. When the thought hit him he tried to push it down but there was only so much he could do, but did his friends feel like Macaque would they fear him after this too? However Macaque continued on " when I had ground Wukong again I watched as my King was called 'Bad Monkey' by that monk." Macaque spat the words out like venom, yet continued on telling the tragic tale of how his best friend left him in the dust which caused Xiaotian to feel anxious.
Honest to heaven Xiaotian couldn't help it the way he knew the story and with how much he had changed since that happened, would Xiaojiao feel the same way Macaque did? By the celestial realm he hoped not.
Xiaotian listened as Macaque spun the tale telling a whole new side. "Macaque," Xiaotian interrupted again, "why did you want to hurt me? Why are you taking mercy on me? I'm your enemy aren't I?" His blind golden eye gleamed in the light.
"You and me? We're in the same spot, not much either of us can do about that? Besides, where's the kid I fought all those months ago? Where's the kid who I help train? Don't ask those kinda questions, especially not the ones you have the answers to"
Xiaotian growled of course Macaque would be vague with it, Wukong was so why wouldn't his former Marshall be too. "I don't understand what you're getting at!" He yelled in frustration "You're just like Wukong when it comes to this stuff 'ya know that, overly vague!" If it weren't for the comparison to the monkey that ruined his life Macaque would have congratulated the kid for getting back to his normal self. "You spin your story in self pity for once I would like an honest straight up answer!"
Macaque growled as the air around the two turned hostile "oh yeah?!" Macaque muttered in an angry voice.
"Yes! You spin in self pity telling me your tragedy. I just want an answer 'I thought he was hurting my former friend' would have been sufficient!" Xiaotian couldn't explain the random burst of anger but it felt good to get it out so he wasn't gonna stop. "You ignore that I'm just barely an adult! I'm only 20 years old!"
Macaque was beyond pissed at this point "Oh Yeah kid?!" His glamor started to fade revaling scars along his face and body. "Well you're not the only one with scars kid" Macaque's glamor entirely faded revealing nasty scars across Macaque's face as if he had been held down and someone tried to dig his eye out. "At least you had a clean cut!" The large monkey snarled, then turned sharply walking away with his tail angrily swishing.
He’s back and ready to commit multiple war crimes :)
when facing art block, I return to my roots. Ghibli was a big part of my art journey and my childhood. First time using my colour pencils since year 6, I think it turned out pretty well.
I love to believe that Ghostbur and Friend are still together since both are gone.🌱
I really love how it turned out.
I feel like tumblr would dig this tiktok
Something for @mmmwafflesart. It’s a redead boi, but more human and he stole Linebeck’s coat. He probably ate a snack or something.
I’m kinda proud of this, it’s my first attempt at lineless and has more of a painted look.
getting my eriks arc art out before tristar/trigaze comes out and slaps me round the face with how wrong i am bonus art of them:
