A quick doodle to brighten your mood. Might turn into a full drawing:}

I saw this video from @shar on youtube and i HAD to draw him. youtu.be/Xx8TQfhRVXY Idk what is it about him but a frog with daisy on its head? Perfection. I drew like 5 different variants because i was indecisive and also experimented with noise texture for the first time ^^(The first one is my favorite btw).

right now i am mostly posting allready finished art that i have in the backlog but here i had to make an exeption and draw a new art right away

This game is literally so beautifull. I hope it will get picked up by another comapany/studio. It has the potential to become a masterpiece and a hudge success. I want it to be real so bad. And people were working on it for so long too :/ Here is the link to a petition

Project Dragon / Everhaven

I heard about Project Dragon aka Everhaven on Twitter/X through game artist Nicholas Kole's social media posts. It looked like a very interesting game; choosing from a variety of fictional races besides humans, taming animal mounts, building our own land and exploring the world. I was surprised by how close it was to being announced before Phoenix Labs canceled the game weeks before release.

I want to see it brought back and finished! #BringBackProjectDragon! Spread the word!

Remember, every time you cast fireball, you throw a frog wizard at your target - comment from Cara

I just had a converation with Jezza McLeod on Cara about this and imagine a wizard that has an army of tiny frog minions that he just chucks at people and they are all wearing tiny wizard outfits.

You hear him shout: "GET HIM BOIS" and suddenly you are overwhelmed by a tsunami of of tiny frog wizards on fire charging towards you, all screaching like chipmunks

Thanks:) (Sits down with popcorn to watch it live in my brain)

Can`t believe my most liked post to date, is about injustice in warrior cats naming system

That was 2 years ago and I still stand by my words

What`s up with me drawing frog wizards. I just realized this is like the third or forth time i do this. Guess they are my staple now or something. This one is DnD themed :)

Ignore my monster of a color palette. It`s always a mess

I found these plastic dinosaur minies and decided to paint them to look like Lucky and Wuerhosaurus from paleo pines & and i will show you all the steps in case you want to do something like this yourself

This was my firs time painting minie figures and i tried using the same techniques people use for DnD figures so you can just look up those tutorials on youtube.

I found these ugly plastic dinosaurs on at a flee market for like 5 hryvnias and this is how they looked before their makeover:

First thing i did was wash them with soap and strip off all the spray paint from them using polish remover/acetone, untill they were this weird yellowish plastic color. (Idk if this step was necessary but i wanted to romoves all the dirt & dust so the paint sticks better)

Then i painted them fully with a dark color. I dont advise using pure black. I used a more dark-ish grey with a bit of blue so the undertone works better.

By the way here are these mfs near a match (for size comparison ofc).

Next i dry-brushed them with a cream color to bring out the texture and leave the dark color in the creases and shadows. I had to go over with a few coats so that they were not too dark.

Fore some reason they made these guys all wrinkly instead of scaly but it did help with the texture lol.

(The more i looked at them the more i saw how weird and inaccurate they are. Still cute though)

And the last steps were to cover them in colorfull washes:

The key is to go slowly, building up the colors layer by layer. I also added a bit of different hues in some places to make the colors less more alive (like a bit of pink on the plates, or some green in certain places idk it just gives more variety to the colors. with out it it the colors look a bit monotonous).

Also, seriously go play the game!!!! it`s just so cute. Dinosaur designs are cutified but still faithfull to how the animal looked according to science (minus the pastel colors lol) and you just know that it was made by true dinosaur lovers.

They do have a tumblr blog at @paleopinesofficial but i see their content more on tiktok

Almost forgot the last creature I made for the cryptid artbook project: the Chugaister from Ukrainian mythology. Described as a large bear-like man, naked and super hairy (with almost animal-like fur), that roams the Carpathian mountains. Despite his appearance, he is a benevolent creature and doesn’t seem attack humans unless provoked. In fact, according to tales, he’s quite friendly towards people. He doesn’t speak like humans, but if he encounters you camping in the forest, he will gladly join you to dance around a bonfire, engaging in a sort of friendly dance battle. He’s super chill overall, especially if you share your food.

Additionally, the Chugaister protects humans from evil spirits and dangers, including NIAVKAS.

You might have heard of "Mavka" from the cartoon "Mavka, the Forest Song." BUT Mavkas and Niavkas are separate beings in folklore (though there is some overlap). I remember reading these different interpretations of the same entity come from different regions (can`t find right now) , but generally:

Mavkas are benevolent, playful forest spirits, almost like forest nymphs with green hair. Niavkas, on the other hand, are described as having transparent skin on their backs through which you can see their organs, usually covered with long hair. They are considered extremely dangerous, akin to skinwalkers or certain types of Fae (if you’re familiar with Fae/Fey mythology).

Before the war my dad often took me with him to explore these abandoned places. He really likes to photograph ruins that are falling apart or overtaken by nature and i too think there is a lot of beauty in them, especially when the nature is absorbing them back into itself and covering everything in moss, little saplings growing from cracks in the walls. Its almost a religious experience when its so quiet there. As an assignment to make an artbook i took some of my dads photos and added cute ghosts to them. There is a tonn of really interesting and unique photos that never went into the project because i was simply running out of time and was stressed (like some photos fom Poland, Some really cool onse from Tarakaniv Fort. Some are on my computer but i siply didnt have time too look for them) But maybe i will be able to revisit this concept some other day and make.

Also now i see i should have posted this as one post instead of separete onse from the start but it fine

Im redrawing this thing What Mewshroom spot pattern do you prefer? Which one is more mushroomy? (the spots are just a rough sketch to see how they look, i will clean them up)

I`m asking on other platforms too cus im indecisive lol

It's a mewshroom🐱🍄

I actually found a weevil in my home once and was shocked how tiny they are. It was still like seeing a celebrity, i was like "OMG is this the bug, the myth, the legend? The snoots and boots insects i`ve been reading about and seeing photos of? In MY house? Visiting ME?" Took some photos and let the lil guy out

Bug of the day: WEEVIL!!!

This is a weevil appreciation post

What insects should I draw next?

I find it a bit funny that i was drawn to cara bacause of the online glaze feature...only to realize that it has a cooldown and literally isn`t available while i`m awake during the day.

I said screw it and decided to post stuff anyway without glazing it. Ai is not worth my sleep scedule lol

No shade to the creator of Cara though. The fact they teamed up with glaze and made the feature available in the first place is so cool (even if i can`t use it). Hope to get webglaze at some point but from what i understand it is invite based.

Hello, everyone! 👋

I realise that it may be too early to ask for help for something like this, but I can't stand living in Kharkiv anymore. My anxiety is growing every day, and the constant pressure from one of my parental figures doesn't make the situation any better I'm actively taking commissions for an unlimited period, and I'm opening a donation to raise money to go to my grandfather. I would be grateful for any help, even just sharing this post, as russia continues to bomb and kill Ukrainian civilians (which is why I am leaving in a first place)

Glory to Ukraine! 💙💛

Shout out to the person who fell into a lake when swinging from a tarzan swing today and had to borrow their dad`s jacket and t-shirt because they were soaking wet up to their chest & covered in algae and mud and had to take a bus ride home in wet shoes and clothes. Couldn`t be me😜😂✨😜🤩

Lil guys incoming! Just a sneak peak of my WIP. I`m experimenting to see if i like them more with outlines or lineless :)

I love quails. They are like a round pigeon with a barabidoodle on it`s head. Peak bird design.

It`s old, no idea why i havent posted this yet, i`m pretty proud of it

That was 2 years ago and I still stand by my words

@w0rmx0l0tl Honestly you are right. I can TOTALLY picture this super soft and super friendly chubby happy old brown cat being called mudface. He probably tells stories to his little grand-kittens before bedtime
