Random Doodles

Love this. It’s just the way it do be sometimes. (This especially helps with my embarrassment about writing.)

Hope this spreads to other artists and whatnot. Y’all need it.

started reading A Change in Perspective and From the Shadows of the Deep, got inspired (would recommend reading)

Say hello to a siren/kraken version of Onyx (and Doom Morph Onyx)!

Drew this one ⬇️ on Wednesday. The rest were drawn Thursday.

Practicing with drawing hands.

Originally, was just going to have the tentacle things (that are in place of her quill spikes) move when she was experiencing different emotions… but then I decided to add colors to it. May or may not change or modify later.

Doom Morph (she looks more like an octopus than a squid 😭):

This one is by far my favorite. Didn’t want to draw over it with my pen for fear of ruining it.

Reblogging because I’ve gotten comments like this on my blog before. I’ve gone through and blocked all comments like this already.

It’s good to stay aware of these types of things.

Hey guys let me tell you about advance fee scams

I hope y'all are familiar with these in this day and age, especially my artists out there, because they're incredibly common.

About half an hour ago I posted a drawing and tagged it #artists on tumblr, and very quickly received this comment.

My scam radar went off immediately, due to the generic blog name and lack of any emotion in the comment, but I decided it might be an entertaining venture so I dmed them. They asked for a drawing "of these", and sent me a random selfie. I got the details and told them it would be $15, and they promptly offered me $300. At this point I know it's a scam, but I play along for funsies and give them my paypal. Shortly, they send me this image for "confirmation" (I blocked out my email)

And they began to insist that I checked my email. I looked in my spam folder and found the following email.

This is fake. This is not a thing. And the "you're to refund the $200.00 back" is the scam. They send vaguely official-looking emails at you to "prove" that they sent you the money, then have you send them $200 (or however much the scam is for). Then, surprise surprise, you're out $200.

I continued to play along for a bit, and in the second email "Paypal" told me that I had to refund the $200 before they could "credit the $300 to my account", along with these lovely threats.

And yeah, it's silly. But it's not silly if you don't know and get scammed. So. Spread, please! And thank you very much to @mlaurel for the opportunity to get these screenshots.

RE-BLOG THIS IF YOU ARE ASEXUAL AND PROUD ♠️💜

Experimenting with which way I want to do this…I have 8 different ways I did this.

mushroom #1:

draw

shade

outline

paint (gouache)

couldn’t decide which lighting I liked better…so have both! (There will be two pictures with slightly different lighting for the rest of the mushrooms as well)

Saw that it was easy to draw black cats just by drawing a blob and adding eyes. Figured I’d give it a try…

Turned out pretty well for my first time!!

Also, OT and Jaime (Jammi? I dunno, the guy whose YouTube channel is called “Jammidodger”) spotted in the wild?! Hello, fellow fans!!

looking through my old artwork

This was probably the first drawing I did of mushrooms.

The one comment I’ve gotten was about… I think offering their services to animate or promote it or whatever. I responded to it and it got deleted. Sad.

I’ve gotten several comments like these over on Wattpad as well. Pretty sure it’s a scam.

reblog if you’re a writer who’s very terrible at responding to comments from your readers, but has read them all and loves and appreciates each and every single one of them very dearly
