Sure, it's their fault. What could go wrong if you get so excited that you mispronounce your own to make it sound cooler? Exactly, nothing. #art #webcomic #comic #snake

A four-panel comic page.
Panel one: Feng happily bounces in like a spring and shouts, "Hello, I am FAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENG!!!"
Panel two: Two reddish cobra hatchlings look at each other in disgust. The red one says, "Whatever you say, Feng."
Panel three: Feng is confused.
Panel four: Feng is angry. "How could they mishear it? Feng is not even a real name? They don't know what a sound effect is? Uncultured hogs!!!" Feng thinks.

You can imagine how it ends… #art #comic #webcomic #snake

A four-panel comic page.
Panel one: Mother snake says, "Hatchlings, we have new neighbors!"
Panel two: Two cool reddish cobra hatchlings. There is a "woooooow" sound effect above them.
Panel three: Sister of Feng says, "We got to make a good first impression. Fang, don't have any stupid ideas."
Panel four: Feng is clearly thinking about stupid ideas. The sister says, "FANG?!"

I reposted it to my Tumblr and decided to show it to you again. It's one of my favorite OCs, Triya! She is a descendant of exiles that found a way to survive in an unusual, for them, cold climate. One day she will get her own novel too! #art #oc

I put two supporter-only posts on my Ko-fi. One of them is a discarded illustration for The Snake Queen that I decided not to use in the special edition, and the other one is a time-lapse of the illustration I made for the epilogue. Link: ko-fi.com/ypsilenna

Thumbnail of the time-lapse I mentioned in the post.

I finally started my second novel! It's still very early in production, so it may feel a little wobbly, but the first chapter is out! I sketched this cover on a piece of paper while waiting for my game to update, lol ypsilenna.art/stories/litt... #novel #art #writing

Illustration for my next novel, Little Star and the City of Wonders. It depicts a steampunk man in a purple coat and top hat with his eyes closed, a little girl with purple braids standing behind him with concern, and a dark beast wrapping around the image like a frame.

Alright, the novel was finished 3 weeks ago, so I can finally share the final illustration here! I am so proud of it and I love how they turned out here ❤️ The full novel: ypsilenna.art/stories/the-... #art #novel

Digital illustration depicting two people sitting on the grass and gazing lovingly at each other. There is a massive spirit snake resting behind them.

CW: Arachnophobia This episode was not supposed to be there, but I lost it imagining the angry spider #art #comic #snake

A four-panel comic page.
Panel one: Mother snake tries to explain hunting to her hatchlings. "To survive on your own, you will need to learn to hunt."
Panel two: She thinks about a fly and says, "We shall start with something small!"
Panel three: She realizes that one of her hatchlings is missing. She says, "Wait. Where's Fang?"
Panel four: Fang hangs upside down in front of a spider web and steals flies from a poor spider who will probably need to go to the ER because it got so angry it grew a fist to wave at Fang.

True!

Several days ago I realized that I am actually doing very well as Mei in #Overwatch despite the fact I never really played her. She is super fun! #videogames #gaming

I finally started the spin-off mini comic! #art #comic

A four-panel comic page.
Panel one: Mother snake looks lovingly at her eggs and says, "And you shall be named Fang. You will grow into a fearsome hunter."
Panel two: The egg hatches and the hatchling pops out with a cocky expression.
Panel three: The hatchling falls out of the egg upside down with a PLOP! sound.
Panel four: Mother Snake looked at the reader with concern in her eyes. The narrator says, "Uhh... The legend is born?"

Guys, I did it. I finished writing the novel. I will take several days to edit chapter 13 and the epilogue because I am currently too sad that it ended to process it properly. #writing

My partner put this pillow there for her to be comfy. Sleep well, little princess 😂

Peeps, I've just found my old list of OC names and finally know what Zephyr's original name was! I inserted it into this screenshot from the novel. Prepare your eyeballs... #writing

“And who exactly are you?" Raajimera asked him as she made the effort to look around.
“I'm Horwastar Soloridelltere," he responded.
"How am I supposed to remember that?" she complained.
“Blame my parents,” he said.

A snippet from chapter 10 of my novel. I am very tempted to draw Feng the snake being dramatic and put it on a t-shirt with the caption "I am a prime example of respecting personal space and boundaries." 😂 I would wear it everywhere... #writing

Bamieh the camel gently turned towards Feng, trying to sniff it.

"Hey, have you got any idea about personal space?!” the snake shouted angrily.
"You're the one to talk." Ragjimera snorted.

"Why would you say that?" Feng asked with frustration in its voice, “I am a prime
example of respecting personal space and boundaries. Tell her!"

Zephyr just looked at the cheeky reptile and said, “I am with her on this."

"Why are you two teaming up against me now?!" Feng hissed even more
frustratedly.

"You licked my ear," Zephyr explained.

"Oh, | get it! You decided to become each other's best friends and leave poor Feng
behind!" Feng moaned and theatrically put its tail tip on its forehead, pretending
that it fainted.

The animal dropped to the ground, feigning death, yet didn't appear even remotely
dead.

"A snake can't even lick people's earlobes anymore; what did the world come down
to..." it complained mournfully.

"Stop being so dramatic," Raajimera said. “Zephyr, why do we need all of these
things?"

I found a camel at last! It's just on classic, but it makes me happy anyway! #warcraft #worldofwarcraft #videogames #gaming

I played Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora recently. I never thought I would like this game, but it's very nice, actually! I love the views. #videogames #gaming

My bf came up with this idea when he was playing Reinhardt, and he was sad because he couldn't draw it, so I drew it for him! This is how he plays Rein, BTW. #overwatch #fanart #videogames

Comic depicting Reinhardt from Overwatch 2 swiping through the Smash or Pass app on his phone. In the last panel he looks at the viewer, and his ultimate is ready.

Somebody sent me proof that there is a person impersonating me on Discord & trying to scam people. Remember, I'm actually lazy and hate doing commissions. I won't open them unless I REALLY need money. If someone who looks like me offers you one, just check my website because this is probably a scam.

Screenshot from Discord of a person pretending to be me, which is false because the real me spent the last several days playing Sun Haven and not using Discord.

My birthday is on first of November, but my bf already gave me the gift. Look what he got me (I guess it wasn't too hard to pick a gift for me considering my recent artworks, lol) This is so cool! #overwatch

Funko pop figurine of Lucio from Overwatch 2. It's on my desk in front of my second screen and some random figurines in the background.

I finished this at 12:30am yesterday, and I kept it on my laptop until now to see if it needs any fixes. It's already reviewed, so here it is! My bard Lucio 🥰 #art #overwatch #videogames

I am finally done with the humanless drawing. This landscape is inspired by one cool photo I saw last month on Fedi, but I lost the link, so I can't share it. :( This sign cannot stop him if he cannot read... Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/ypsilenna

Digital painting depicting a mountain lake and a dog bathing in it. On the right side of the picture there is a sign disallowing dog baths, yet the dog remains unbothered.
