HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU'VE AGED

@sofd-maybe if I had a nickel for every time I drew a cheerful green-veiled hk oc for someone way too cool to be a mutual of mine, I'd have two nickels, etc etc

Anyway! I adore Sylvie's design, even if I may have stretched it a bit with the orange. She's doin a little jig :)

Finally finished this!!! I started it after I finished artificer's campaign last January...

I want to make similar full illustrations for the other downpour slugcats once I finish them... I've already finished Gourmand's campaign and I'm almost done with Spearmaster, so it should be those guys next!! ^^

guess who beat inscryption!

i am Struggling to draw this man

Ok I borrowed a computer and got Chapter 2 :> All is well again except I can't get past the First Alleyway

thinking about Them

Crassie was originally a D&D character from around seven months ago who was significantly based off of Hollow Knight (specifically the Hunter), and used to exist in this strange AU I'd made where most creatures were bugs but humans also were a thing, before I decided to make her an actual world. I have an old sketchpage of her not shown here

Heathrow has existed for a week and a half

[Start ID. A close-up photo of one titular Provence Hairstreak perched on a rock. It is a butterfly only a couple centimeters long, with one of its big black eyes visible and lined in white, thin clubbed antennae striped black-and-white, and large, generally brown wings, with black spots amid a patch of orange on the forewing. Its most notable feature, though, is the ludicrously fluffy appearance of its front half: long setae the color of verdigris almost completely take over its head, thorax and abdomen, and the green hairs extend to its femurs and half of the hindwings. The white speckles dotting the green wings contribute to an overall fairy-like appearance. End ID.]

Please include what language your name comes from, if you know. I'm very curious

As someone who's last name is Polish and Welsh, so like if Europe's two most unpronounceable languages had a baby, this is important to me 😂

one fun thing about being a teacher in march 2023 is that chess is a literal epidemic among teens. we are starting to have meetings about how we can STOP teenagers from playing too much chess which is like if we were trying to figure out how to stop them from reading for fun. When i was in high school five years ago chess was nerd shit only but now it is transcending every social and language barrier and is absolutely rampant. kids aren’t on their phone texting in class anymore it’s ONLY chess.com. kids are playing chess on their phones while playing chess in real life. this is still better than tiktok because at least the kids are developing an attention span from this
