does the infinite engagement exploit still work?(the one where i can just keep posting my fursona and people still like to see her)
yeah girl that grass is hiding u so well dw about it, i cant see u
Trans day of visibility means u are allowed to perceive her today:
referenced this anatomy sketch i found on pinterest as a starting point, presumably the artist handle is "@速写超人寸寸" but theres a smaller watermark in the corner that i just cannot make out so im not sure!!!
the second one reflects when my mental state regarding art wasn't healthy. like i was stuck in this concept of chasing "perfection" and every detail had to be /perfect/ down to making sure the side of the flannel had 3d depth and i drew every stitch and the pattern is accurate
so this is actually the third iteration of this one diner scene Ive drawn every few years, even though this one is very different than the other 2 (Hence it being "Someplace Familiar") It's turned into a little footprint of my art style and mental state at the time of each one being drawn
cropped version just in case of any weird interactions between mobile devices or image compression or something making it difficult to see
Ok I think I deleted my last post about how I shouldn't post to reddit bc I was like "ok it's not that bad all the time" but man I really shouldn't post to reddit. like idk what's worse, the unprompted red lining or the assumption my sona is a stripper LMAO
remembered i have a plugin for generating perspective grids from points, pondering if i do a third iteration of this one diner i draw sometimes, itll be like my little fun benchmark of how i draw and render and whatever
the primal urge to draw the lil guy like i did with the 🐝🦌combination 10000 years ago..
I feel so maternal towards the ☠️🦌emoji combination.....
thing i drew when i came out (April 2023) also the original drawing in full size, just for fun (March 2022)
bluesky can have a wip sneak peek as a treat, i suppose
i spent like 45 minutes messing with the colors at the end because i kept changing my mind on what i wanted. i went with blue because i had to pick something, but i still feel like there's some potential here with some other colors
i was really into the jet set radio soundtrack when i drew this one..
I'm going online! Sona belongs to @captyns.bsky.social
YAAAAAAY thank u!! and i cannot judge u bc i havent finished something in like 2 years, i just be giving up while trying to sketch heres the doe (i might redo the sheet as a project if i get back into consistently drawing, but i dont think im gonna change any of the actual design)
Hii! I'm Ilex! Silly little furry artist creature thing. Thanks for stopping by!! 💕🥺 Socials: 🦌🎨.st (or xn--8k8hh8g.st I guess, because bluesky doesnt format the emojis properly when the link embeds...)
