I have never seen a craft I haven’t wanted to try. I like fountain pens, drawing, and journal/planner deco. I’m an embroiderer, cross stitcher, knitter, crocheter, and I’m working on learning a variety of things including making wooden puppets Anti gen AI

A finished birthday commission for the wonderful Dreamer Emporium (whose handle shows as invalid for some reason) of their character Bubble Pop! I had a lot of fun drawing her

A drawing of a pink and white robot with a screen face and white eyes and nose. She’s holding a teacup and saucer and is seated on a chair made of blue bubbles. In the background is a NASA photo of the bubble nebula

Believe it or not, this pile of fabric pieces, zipper, hardware, and snap setter turned into a sweater keychain a few months ago.

A photo of a black cutting mat covered in some yellow fabric pieces with pale white and gray and dark blue flowers, a teal zipper with metal teeth, a swivel clasp, a snap setter, and some gold snaps

Warm up that took longer than I intended, inspired by ShockOne’s Follow Me

A drawing of a gray/blue hand with sharp curved pink nails holding a phone that has a creature with down-pointing curved tusks smiling from behind an AR visor with an evil eye on it. It has a vaguely 5g tower band on its headphones, and it has an armless hand holding the headphone cords beneath its chin. There’s another evil eye on its chest and it has binary on its dark blue cloak. More binary is on the black background with pink rings coming from behind the phone. The phone screen itself also has faded text saying ‘OBEY’ scattered around, and notification bell icons. There are a few text boxes reading ‘follow me on everything’

So since I’ve gotta post a sketch, have one I’m working on inspired by Follow Me by ShockOne >.>

A sketch of a hand holding a phone, and on the phone is a character with a vr visor and headset, with little bell notification icons all over and ‘follow me on everything’ spaced out on different text bubbles. ‘Obey’ is lightly pencilled across it, and the figure is holding the headphone cord below their chin. The fingernails on the figure and the hand holding the phone are pointed and curved.

In the course of doing an errand, I checked one of my local bookstores to see if they had And Side By Side They Wander (which I proposed to my book club and it got picked for this month) and I was blind but it was there! Once I finish The Subtle Art of Folding Space I can start on it 👁️👁️

A hand holding up two books, one at more of an angle than the other. The one behind is John Chu’s The Subtle Art of Folding Space with nice shades of blue, and the front one is And Side by Side They Wander by Molly Tanzer which is primarily green with a pop of yellow at the sides and red and pale orange in the middle in silhouette form. The background is a rainy sidewalk

A maskless Tarn for a friend of mine! 💛

A bust sketch of a maskless Tarn including his head and neck, part of his chest, and his inner set of treads. He’s in purple with his optics in red and orange, and behind him is desaturated purple and a flare of bright pink by his head in a splatter pattern

GUESS WHO JUST GOT THEIR COPY OF @jroberts332.bsky.social GENERATION MECHS 👀 I am SO excited to have this in my hands and can’t wait to get started (I am painstakingly adding it to StoryGraph)

A photo of the front cover of Generation Mechs by James Roberts held up in front of a shelf with some robot art and a Goliath (from Gargoyles) figure in the background

Finished a D&D character comm for a friend! :)

Pixel art of a brunette wood elf character in green, gray, and brown with tan skin, mismatched eyes (one orange, one blue). He has a staff behind him and his raised hand has blue magic around it

I doodled my warforged boyo, Astrakath, for D&D on Friday. He isn’t one-armed, I just didn’t feel like drawing the other one. If you want me to draw YOUR warforged…. 👀 My comms are open

A drawing of a warforged with inspiration from yellow cedar—the one arm has bark-like patterns on it, the joints are ball joints, there are no eyes, and he has horns that resemble the leaves of the tree. He has two visible rings over his shoulders, and a green and brown colour palette

@monstyra.bsky.social ‘s new sticker had me instantly jump to buy it, I was NOT joking. 👁️👁️

A photo of a floral origami paper folded over so you can see the florals where it was folded into an envelope, and then the plain green of the inside. In the background is a lavender bush, and in the partly open envelope is a holographic sticker of the TV Show version of Murderbot slumped against a wall with ‘performance reliability at 31% … fuck’

Idk about you, but sometimes the need to send something beautiful to a friend that they can physically interact with stirs in my soul and I either write just a letter or I write a letter & include one of the pic examples. If you can join or start a letter writing club, DO. So many people are looking

A photo of a whiteboard with ‘examples of non-bills to send in the mail’ written on it, and various examples taped up or leaning against the board with things written next to them and arrows pointing. The examples are mini prints (from Amanda Herzmann’s club), trading cards/collecting cards (Cookiedoves’ Bird of the Month Club), stickers, recipes, mini zines, CDs (Sam Buckingham’s Dear John), and ‘favourite: quotes, lyrics, books, photos, more!’

So since I seem to be close to the end of this bunch of roving, I am now approaching A New Problem: how to set the ply. Pray for me, y’all

A photo of my hand holding a drop spindle with a 3D printed top, and the shaft of the spindle is wrapped with variegated yarn in dark purple, cobalt blue, and white

Repairing your stuff is so good, actually. One of the rivets on my notebook cover wasn’t installed properly originally, so I took it to a leatherwork drop in and fixed it! 💛

A photo of the front of a dark brown leather notebook cover with pen loops to hold it shut, showing a lighter hole where a rivet was hammered into place

A photo of the inside front cover of a dark brown leather notebook cover, with one of its two pen loops visible and the two black rivets that hold it in place. The inside cover has two card slots, one of which holds a card for a robot from RoboTea:1 Cup, and the other has the merchant robot from Steamworld Quest

The current page in my robot/bot adjacent binder is looking so good (pins are so hard to photograph in groups like this DON’T COME AT ME). Featuring pins from JedHenry, @kaozhedgehog.bsky.social @aimeecozza.com Hunter and Convor (iirc?) and YourGuidingX. And Pixelladium Creations who is me.

A photo of a pink craft foam page in a cloth binder featuring an Iron Man pin by Pixelladium Creations, a lot of YourGuidingX’s Transformers gummy pins, a cat in a mech suit, a HunterandConvor K-2SO pin, KaozHedgehog Sonic pins, and Aimee Cozza’s collab mini pins with Publishing Goblin that are robot versions of the minor arcana symbols.

I learned how to attach snaps and I am making it EVERYONE’S problem (these are cord organizers)

A photo of in ear monitor-type earbuds (Moondrop Chu 2) wrapped in a cord organizer made out of textured leather with a pale gold snap. They’re resting on a dark brown notebook cover

A photo of a green cord organizer with a brushed silver snap holding a pair of Apple earbuds neatly in place, held by my fingers atop a colourful bag

A photo of four finished cord organizers with the leather pieces they were cut from in the background. They’re resting on a black cutting mat with a white grid

I am feeling so devious and powerful because I made a pen pocket that is supposed to look like a poster tube for my work zip up cardigan (formerly hoodie).

I don’t think there’s a better way to prepare for Platform Decay than to use a self-carved Murderbot and ART stamp in your journal with a note on where your preparatory series reread is at

A photo of a journal page with hot air balloon washi tape on one side (from Paperblanks) and a cut off sticker that isn’t showing enough to make it clear what it is. The focus of the photo is a long stamp in blue of a ship on one side, Murderbot’s bust on the other, and BFFs in between them with some sparkles and a heart by ART while a tiny gun shape shoots a flag at the heart. Underneath it is hand-written ‘current reread spot: Network Effect’

One of my favouritest things to do is be like aha? Friend/friend group creative activity opportunity? HEY EVERYONE WHAT’S YOUR AVAILABILITY FOR-

That one drawing of a fairly nondescript figure sitting pretty on a line with a huge smile and eyes with a few eyelashes each

Learning to draw Banyue is going so well, though hair is still a guessing game

A pen drawing of the intelligent construct Banyue from Zenless Zone Zero—his head is tilted at a downward angle and eyes are closed, and most of the drawing is full of his hair. There is a peek of his shoulders and neck though. There is hatching for shading.

zeenovos@zeenovos· Mar 15

Finally finished this robosona drawing for the ever patient and lovely @diplomatea.bsky.social 💛 They gave me a lot of grace while burnout from work stuff and generativeAI nonsense was kicking my ass with digital stuff

A drawing of a robosona with a transparent pink dome-head with day of the dead themed ‘makeup’ and paint on them. They’re in a black crop top with a hood and big pointed shoulders, have pink metal for their chest that’s got white ribs painted on, and they’re holding an acoustic guitar that’s rested on one thigh. They have a crown of light and dark orange marigolds, and there’s a textured blend of orange and darker purple behind them. A line art border in light yellow has stylized flames at the corners.

Not to be a major nerd on main but AFTER THIRTY-TWO MASTER TAPES THE ROBO IDOL GIRL IS MINE. I would like to thank the @sixverba.bsky.social Banyue and Billy phone charms I put on as earrings (on little heart hoops) not long before doing the spur of the moment single Signal Search

A screenshot of a pink-haired anime girl with some streaks of green in her hair, Aria from Zenless Zone Zero. She’s in front of the Signal Search screens

So for March of Robots 2026, so far I’ve just been practicing drawing Banyue from Zenless Zone Zero. 😅 I’ve been getting better! He isn’t AS compressed as he was when I started

zeenovos@zeenovos· Mar 6

Since this looked interesting—some games did not make it on, like Boyfriend Dungeon, Hades, Slay the Princess, Sonic Riders, Steamworld Heist, etc, but rest assured I love them very much.

A grid of nine videogame covers—NEO: The World Ends With You, Burnout Paradise, Shadow the Hedgehog, Ribbit King, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Zenless Zone Zero, Stardew Valley, Digimon: Survive, and Undertale

Also, I did some sketching towards the start

A sketch of the stage with a screen at the back, a banner, four chairs towards the middle with a table, and the edge of the stage. In the left corner is a doodle of some small indistinct figures, meant to be Kurt with one foot on a chair and pushing his glasses up while Jeremy, Vic, Jacob, and Kimia are across from him doing a scene. Above their heads is written ‘Piano Torture’, the name of the game

Koko Monk’s A Non-Conformist’s Plea for an Imaginary Summer—this used to be a menu item and it deeply confused me, but after many hot chocolate festivals I am at a point where I now definitely know I like and appreciate it. Similar to the osmanthus and lychee ice cream I’d had earlier, flavour-wise

A photo of a tall handled glass with dark chocolate swirls in it. It contains a light brown hot chocolate with whipped cream and a caramel drizzle on top. In front of it is a passion fruit gelato taster

zeenovos@zeenovos· Feb 15

Eternal Abundance’s Exotic Bramble and Sweet Green Duo—more of a chocolate drink than a hot chocolate, on both counts. The flavours were there, but they didn’t seem to be balanced well or strong enough to counter things? We blended the two and that was nice, but yeah. Not quite what I was expecting

A photo of two glass cups on saucers, each with a heart shaped thumbprint cookie. One hot chocolate has Hojicha powder dusted over its coconut whipped cream, and the other has a blackberry sauce drizzled over its coconut whipped cream.

zeenovos@zeenovos· Feb 15

Mah Milk Bar’s Carrot Got Ya Tongue—liquid carrot cake (GOOD carrot cake) with cream cheese whip cream and a cookie that also tastes of carrot cake. Marvellous experience

A photo of a to-go cup topped half with grated carrot and half with cream cheese whipped cream. Before it sits an unassuming cookie

zeenovos@zeenovos· Feb 15

Cream’s Midnight Mochi Horchata and hot chocolate affogato—the horchata was really nice but could have used a little more spice, and I wish both of the ice cream mochi had been vanilla as the artificial strawberry threw me. The affogato was nice, but I only wanted a little of it. 😂

A photo of a to go cup with a black sesame paste(?) rim, and two skewered ice cream mochi on top. One is black and one is red. The hot chocolate is dusted with cinnamon.

A photo of an ice cream cup with a cocoa powder dusted chocolate lattice on top and a wooden spoon resting on it

zeenovos@zeenovos· Feb 15

Butter Baked Goods’ Kardashamom season 16—a very nice, light hot chocolate, but the cardamom was also very light which surprised me. The shortbread didn’t really have any cardamom notes, but was delicious anyway.

A floral teacup and saucer with hot chocolate, whipped cream, and a teabag-shaped shortbread cookie with a coating of chocolate on the bottom

zeenovos@zeenovos· Feb 15

Cathy’s Cafe’s Chrysanthe-YUM and Bergamot Butterfly—I found the earl grey one to be the better of the two. They were both nice, but the earl grey stood out more flavour-wise, and its mochi was better experientially for me despite the more floral earl grey notes
