Finishing up some of my finals for this semester! This is a little looping animation piece about star formation, made with a combo of After Effects and Photoshop :]
Tried making it into a gif for convenient looping but it loses too much of the texture to be worth it </3
Complex loop animation from my animation class, hand drawn traditionally on paper! This is the most fun i've had in this class so far but it might be fun to redo sometime when I have more free time to work out the hiccups :]
Thief!
Midterm for my storyboarding class, the pacing on this was kinda brutal but im really happy i got it finished! on my grind 🫡
another commission for @skiterring! feeling very honored to be one of the first to draw their new characters Celadon and Tyrian, very excited to see what it does with them!!
commissions may be slow, but they are always open!

Sweet dreams, Merlin
quick style study of that one room in wall, ft. slugcat oc i came up with 5 minutes ago to be HST's messenger
Animating with sharpie on 16mm film lead in class! This was a super fun experiment :D ive edited the video slightly to fix the pacing, sadly my phone camera quality is not as easy to fix lol
Thank you so much to my first commissioner this semester, @davisp01 on instagram! It was so fun to draw your dnd character and i'm honored that you took enough interest in my work to commission me!
My commission info is in my pinned post, and hyperlinked here for simplicity's sake :]
OPENING COMMISSIONS!! :D

Getting back into drawing and experimenting!!
@slitherbop has been a big inspiration for me for a long time so i finally cracked down and did a bit of a palette study >:]
You can find more about my iterator oc over here on my artfight account! 👀
I'M PARTICIPATING IN ART FIGHT THIS YEAR!!
I want to keep in practice and experiment with my style, team Seafoam won't know what hit em >:]
Always down for revenges, chains, and friendly fire! See you all soon ;D
Projected animation project from my second semester finals at SAIC! This was a really fun experiment in multimedia and I would love to do more with it in the future 👀
guess who got back into homestuck again
UPDATE!! THEY ARE NOW PAINTED!!!!
It took a bit of sanding but everything is acrylic paint and gloss sealant! The gloss texture helps them seem shiny + there's a bit of glitter in the silver paint I used :]
These have a black base coat to darken the thin silver paint I had and to add some scratched up/aged texture to them
Extra WIP stage tomfoolery below!
I have been so excited about this project!! 3D printed a pair of iterator antennae headphone attachments :D
The size is measured to my Philips TAH4205 headphones so they clip on without any glue or tape, .STL files and .UFP files (formatted for Ultimaker S3 printers through Cura) are included here!
These are fresh off the 3D printer, I plan to paint them silver tonight to seem more metallic >:]
Check for reblog updates once these are finished!

I need to shake him so hard. I need him shook.
animated this in photoshop in about 9 hours, I hadn't drawn canon-accurate pebbles in AGES so this was pretty fun! feels good to be animating again as well :]
Documentation from my final critique in drawing!
I loved this class and everyone in it, critique was great and everyone's work was stunning :]
Bonus reblog with concept work on HST! Digital work is from a few months ago, traditional is from 2 days ago :]
Making a lore doc for them + the local group so i can start writing things >:3

Missing posters to commemorate a family friend's house from childhood. We lost contact with each other when my family moved away, so this is more out of my own sense of childhood nostalgia than anything concrete.
This was my final for my research class, which required a site-specific element to the piece! These were really fun but kind of terrifying to make? It was still really interesting to execute though! I'm glad I went through with it :]
Going unhinged about Five Pebbles perhaps. Massive credit to @verminsh for brain blasting me with the concept of Cabinet Man as a 5P song, I apologize for the insanity to come but also no I do not.
Working on compiling this into a digital format so I can use it as base sketches for an animatic, hopefully coming soon! (we shall see if finals derail this but oh well)
My first submission to Xerox Candy Bar has officially been published!! I'm so excited to share the Monsters & Cryptids edition with everyone on distribution day :]
Thank you so much to everyone at XCB! Y'all are amazing and i'm so interested to see what comes next 👀
Some study sketches on slugcats, these sketch page formats have been super super fun for me recently :]
