The only reason I feel okay-ish opening comms again is bc I'm almost finished w/ the last batch (!!!) -- also, while it isn't quite a capital-E Emergency (yet), it IS pretty urgent.

(On that note, if you'd like to donate instead, here are the accounts I share w/ my sibling.)

@letsgoayo God, same.

Like... I do eventually want to make this a job, prolly. Or I want to get to the point that I could feasibly choose to over gov't dis/a/bility.

But as it is rn, killing myself w/ overwork *before I've even MADE that income* is so silly + counterproductive... & Yet.

[Killjoy McCoy @letsgoayo]

as you undoubtedly know, I am a major enemy of artist overwork. I have never been a workaholic but even in times when I thought I was grinding, I was just comfortably floating at a steady cruising pace.

With storytelling, it’s easy to get impatient and want to get it all done

Bonus shitpost icon I made, which is a traced and then redrawn of Madoka fan art that I made a meme edit of for her a looong time ago.

(This was not made for profit, it's really just something I made bc the idea amused me!)

[The Sabra Collective @SabraCollective]

I finished this YCH Character Sheet commission for my good friend Cheechy; Zsa Zsa is her D&D OC, she's an absolutely divine design & I'm *so* happy I got to work on her!

Bonus:

A few weeks ago (at the start of yet another phase in Winter's Worst Depression Rut, before studying Pen & Ink Drawing), I tried drawing Earnest's Bullworth school photo in a moody, beaten way.

While it's... rough, I like it a lot more now simply for how *raw* it feels.

[Mx. Sebastian-Moses Sabra D. T. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈♿️ @Octipii]

“I wonder if I could draw Jeremangst in ~1-2 min (w/ minimal warm-up, while laying down in bed) & still have it come out the way I (basically) want it to bc of all the practice I’ve done lately.”

The answer is: I can, & I did.

So that's a Hell of a dopamine fix.

Gonna take my booster now, but:

Did some ink practice (based on page 24-25 of A. Dunn’s “Pen & Ink Drawing”.)

[Mx. Sebastian-Moses Sabra D. T. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈♿️ @Octipii]

Decided to refine it a slight bit to get a feel for certain areas

Again — went down pretty well, all things considered.

@ftmshepard @Octipii Canis Canem Edit was the name of Bully overseas/in England, IIRC!!!

Finished off this sketchbook page of #Bullworth art w/ the ever-lovely OC Gordana, made by my wonderful friend Oli (@/Vanceypants on AO3)!

“The Missing Vendome: A Case Study” is, as w/ all their work, far & away the BEST fanfic I’ve ever read; highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend.

[The Sabra Collective @SabraCollective]

Ah, here's a closeup & a straightened photo of the whole page.

She’s not perfect, but I think I did a surprisingly decent job for a warm-up practice.
