I everyone, throughout October I'll be streaming to raise money for the Blue Cross for animals in need, especially black cats that have a lot of stigma around them due to superstitions. There's rewards that you can purchase or donate whatever amount you'd like. The choice is yours! I'll be playing spooky games (even though I'm a big scaredy-cat). Hope to see you soon, I'll be posting streaming alerts on my blog, @bigf101

It's my 9 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

Psst your most recent post is absolutely amazing and wonderful but there’s a typo in the word jewels.

🤦��♀️

Thank you I didn't realise. 👍

[ready-steady-draw]

It's finally done! I added some finishing touches to the jewels, I hope you can actually see them in the piece. I thought it would be fun to add a sort of fashion illustration sketch to the drawing, as if it's just been designed sadly this is actually a hand-me-down from her tutor before she died.

I posted this on Instagram for Oddworld Inhabitant's World Watercolour Month post. I just think the concept art for these poor lil murder machines, is the cutest! I've heard they're born white, but then there was also concept for an albino slig game? So I thought I'd add a tint of green/yellow to the little guy.

I've been getting back into watercolour more lately and I've also been taking classes, a distraction from the other Oddworld art I've been posting WIP of already, and not finished STILL so I'll be posting them as well.

Hi ok this is so random but do you have the full ver. of Design Doll? I made a pose in it but didn't take a photo before I saved and reset my models and now a pose I spent like 30 min on is locked away 😭 Can I send you the file so you can take a photo of the pose ?? No worries if not I'm desperate though

Hi, as far as I'm aware you can't save in Design Doll unless you have the paid version so you wouldn't be able to send me any files. And if you're just going to send me the file, wouldn't it be better to just take the pictures then?

[ready-steady-draw]

When you buy Design Doll so you don't have to manually write down the size of each of the body parts X and Y. Only to realise you can also edit the body like it was in Blender. I'm definitely going to try making a Glukkon next with this newfound knowledge.

I'm going to finish my sketches I promise, (I say after sketching two other characters)

Well trying to 3D sculpt on Sculptris failed badly and I couldn't export it to Blender, only to realise I have no idea how to make the feathers without it getting all polygon-like (her feathers were pointier than Lara Croft back in the day <<👀) so I'll have to learn Blender at some point.

Sooo in the meantime, Mudokon Queen Fashion Sketches and AU Lore will have to do! This is her The Big Day Auction Dress I'm working on. The outfit is based off of wedding dresses and all Mudokon Queens wear white before they are chosen by a Glukkon.

After I completed my Cass Art art supply haul to celebrate their 40th year anniversary, I used the Opera Rose paint that came in my Winsor and Newton Cotman pan set. I also used a iridescent medium also by Winsor and Newton to create this. It's been a while since I made a fashion illustration.

I've signed a petition over Meta and AI. I don't know if it will do anything but I wanted to spread the word!

Don't worry, I'm still uploading to Tumblr, but I did have a Instagram account which I will no longer be using due to the issues around AI on the app. I've used my main accounts url rather than my side art blog's.

Is this what happens when you fall in love with a fandom because of fanart and OCs, looked over the wiki multiple times, watched video game cutscenes but avoid ending spoilers... You then want to make several OC's and headcanons like everyone else in the fandom. So you try to draw an OC only to realise you have no idea how to even draw the character's race, find a bunch of references, open a sculpting software you have no idea how to use just to figure out the perspective of the characters features... WELL before you've even bought the game...

I made a new piece for a contest by XPPen on Instagram called 'Flowery Fairy'. I used Clip Studio Paint for the first time and it's pretty good so far, still get a lot to learn.

The flower I used for reference: ipomoea nil japanese morning glory snow - Google Search

Bought a new little canvas a few days ago, and I wanted to paint something similar to the horse heads my mum has in her living room. The horse head is based on one from a horse themed adult colouring book by Cindy Elsharouni 🐎✍️

I'm trying to learn how to paint in acrylic since I'm so used to digital and watercolour paint (even though I've also been an amateur 😅). Still getting the hang of gesso, I think I may have ruined the canvas by adding it, to be honest, I think it was already smooth before my bright idea 🤣

Paint 🎨 - Royal & Langnickle Acrylic paints
