As expected, crazy haul at Otakon. LOTS of manga, mostly because I brought like a dozen volumes to the manga library swap. I’ll def do it again next year! Also stopped by Crimson Chains’ table & got a signed copy of Seal Crossed!

Woohoo! Beat Fear and Hunger Termina for the first time!😮‍💨 Ending A w/ Daan, Abella, Marcoh, & O’saa. After struggling on my first run felt kinda OP w/ a full party honestly lol. Not normally the kind of game I play but def one of my faves now!🤩

She always drinks so gracefully

Don’t judge, this is SUCH a WIP and I have SO MUCH MORE TO DO, but the satisfaction of knowing at least my magnetic bangs idea worked is indescribable

My closet right now. Everything is a drying rack. SO MUCH HAIR Had the day off so worked on my wig for 8 hours straight today 😭

My mystery snail has grown a tiny bit over the past 7 months 🤏 I might need to get him a new house soon though. The struggle to get out of it just now 😭

OK! Let’s try this again! 😅🤞

Apparently this is what about 5 hours of work looks like, crimping & cutting wefts for what’s eventually gonna be my new Yami Yugi wig. Hopefully 🤞😭🤞 I’m gonna have to pick this back up tomorrow. Drying the glue in my closet because cats. Literally don’t have space for the rest 🫠 So. Much. Hair.

Sharing this #WIP because I didn’t expect to spend so much time on it last night or for it to go this well so far. Not perfect but you wouldn’t know it’s just the background for a Pokemon piece lol #traditionalart #traditionalpainting #acrylicpainting #acrylic

This Gummigoo keychain packaging is something. I’m probably just going to leave him in there tbh

Rendering hair is so satisfying. Takes me a while but it’s worth it💖 …and yes, I’m working on rendering before I finished drawing the hands. I almost always put them off as long as possible 😝

Happy Friday! 🎉 Working today but I’m not at all locked in. Long weekend for me so hoping to finish my MerMay piece!🧜‍♂️ It’s going to seem extremely random BUT I promise I have my reasons (that will become clear in coming months). Hopefully it still kinda resembles who it’s supposed to be…🫣 👉👈

I know I’m like over a decade late but I picked up the Dramatical Murder DVD set for $10 a few weeks ago. Finally finished watching it tonight. I learned of the visual novel from an iceberg of most disturbing games. Ep 1-12 I was like I don’t get it, how is this disturbing. Then the OVA happened 😆

Omg just started Spyro: A Hero’s Tail and this Sparx redesign just makes me think of the polite cat meme. Same energy 😭

Welp. So much for playing them in order. Got all PS versions so I could play them all on the same console but Im gonna have to get the GameCube version of Enter the Dragonfly. I’m at like 25% completion but it’s so miserable. The glitches are getting worse to the point that I have to restart levels😭

5/15 - Got 117% completion in Year of the Dragon. Shout out to @hyuponiax.bsky.social for taking over when I got too frustrated, especially with the skateboarding and weird mini games. Not off to the best start…😅 Ramblings below 🧵⬇️

Having only ever played Spyro 1&2, I bought the rest of the PS games & plan to play them in order starting with 3. Tho Im going in blind, my expectations are very low based on general reception of the series the longer it went on. I’ll add my thoughts here after I finish each game!🧵 #mangocat21games

And now the cutest pics of Gnocchi possible 👅🥺

Instead of starting my new Yami Yugi wig I continue to procrastinate & worked on my May cosplay tonight, which will be SO easy. All I’ll have to do after this is paint the bandana & style the wig …then I’ll have fewer excuses not to work on that Yugi wig. So intimidated after the struggle last year😅

Framed and ready to gift tomorrow ❤️ …along with a bunch of cat themed gifts as usual because I’m always spreading the crazy cat person propaganda 😸

Belated Mother’s Day gift for my mom 💐 Acrylic paint on 4x4 canvas panel Did this in about 2 hours, which is super fast for me lol #traditionalart #traditionalpainting #acrylicpainting #birdart #flowerart #イラスト

lol that’s cats for ya He woke up while I was taking more pics 😆

The most unflattering pics of Gnocchi possible

Working on setting up 2 new aquariums since my ghost shrimp population exploded. Got 10 ramshorn snails in the mail today. They such little guys 🥺 The adult I have came in on a plant in Nov. Size comparison in the last pic 🐌

Needed a mental break last night so I tried zen doodling with acrylic markers 🪷 #traditionalart #zendoodle #doodleart #abstractart

Another email ad from Shutterfly. I don’t think this specific one made it into the photo book tho. There was a lot to dislike about my time in that cramped 1 room apartment but I look back and cherish all the time I was able to spend with my kitties because of it ❤️

It’s Chonk’s turn to check the fridge. He’s just not as thorough about it as Plum

Somehow the cover formatting got messed up and the end dates got cut off so I’ll take that as a message/symbolic and not just a print error lol
