I drew and animated a thing because I love the Shikanoko Nokonoko dance.

Really love this color palette and the style is beautiful.

My first animation was in 1996 with Powerpoint and it’s insane to see how far these programs have come (this is Procreate). I’m so happy in these moments.

I did the oc trend because life got so much better once I met her.

Omg.

Making the goofiest Myst merch known to mankind—and the faux-90's Apple ad branding to match—because I CAN. Available this week on the official Cyan store.

I’ve never been great at drawing super realistic art, and I think it’s because it never really held my interest. I just love stylized characters which is why I’ve been drawing them obsessively for over 20 years! Because of that, I’ve got a lot of ideas about how you can approach stylized anatomy - here’s a snippet of a longer video I made on this topic ✨

You can watch the full video here!

Good morning lovelies! Progressing through learning how to rig and I can’t wait to improve on this draft. 🖤 Is starting to look nice and squishy!

Finished up this second expression for my character reference sheet. I thought it suited the current mood because I have no nuggies. 😭

Working like crazy to get my portfolio together and start taking commissions for Vtubers. This specific variation is called a .PNGTuber and they're great because they don't require a webcam or anything. You might also know "reaction tubers" which feature similar features. I designed this .PNGTuber in Photoshop then rigged it with .PNGTuber Plus. Features a few toggles for blushing, snacking, working, and gaming!

[littleashthings]

It’s finally time I answered the most commonly ask question I get - why did I design my Vtuber to have a straitjacket?!

I was so excited to answer this I made a video!

I have always wanted to cosplay this outfit from Thumbelina. Amazing work!

"I'm not your toots, and I don't even look like a beetle!"

Now you do 🫠🦋

Here's the second 17" Thumbelina, Beetle ball edition! Her dress was an adventure, so many pieces, so many directions, so many pins poking my fingers 😵‍💫 In the end though, I think she's my favourite of the bunch, she's massive, colorful and so so pretty, I'm obsessed ✨

It's almost July so 'tis the season, and I haven't really seen an information post go around despite Tumblr being full of artists and OCs, so for those not informed -

What is Art Fight?

copied from https://artfight.net/info/about , illustrated by Queijac

Art Fight is an annual art game that lasts for 1 month. [ Note: usually takes place during July ] Users can register on the site to join in. Each year, participants are split into two teams to which they are assigned randomly.

[ Illustration: a furry character colored blue and a human character colored red brandish art supplies at each other like weapons. ]

Players "attack" people of the opposing team by making art of original characters you choose belonging to members of the other team. You are free to use almost any style (see Attack Rules section of the rules).

Your team receives points based on what you create for the other team with each attack.

[ illustration: the blue furry character shows off a red drawing to the red human character, who is bending down to see it and looks excited. ]

The artist that receives the attack can then counter that attack by drawing the character belonging to the person who attacked them, or pay it forward by attacking a different person on the other team.

At the end of the month, the team with the greater score wins.

[ Illustration: the red human is sitting at a table with drawing tools in front of them thinking of a blue character. They are holding a pen and looking determined. ]

But remember, while there are point scores, the real goal is to celebrate characters with your fellow artists. Art Fight is about giving and recieving amazing art. ♥

If you're interested in joining up before this year's event period starts (or during it! You can join at any time) come and take part here ! The teams for this year are going to be revealed on the 23rd, so you have plenty of time to add your characters and scope out potential targets :3c

Extra info:

Digital art and traditional art are both accepted, including sculpture, fursuits, 3d modeling, animation, and more!

There is sometimes a bit of site downtime at the start of the event as traffic spikes. This is normal, is briefer each year, and will resolve after a bit. I recommend downloading a few ref sheets in advance if you plan on drawing from the first minute

Don't start art early! It's against the spirit of the thing to sneak in extra work time. If you're just doing it to give people art, you can always make it a normal, no-points-involved gift!

Character reference images and attacks created have to be non-sexual. The site has content filter guides and submission rules that go into more detail about what is and isn't allowed!

Don't have character references finished? Here's a quick guide on what's best to include at the minimum.
