Since I was modded for the Flying Press, and shortly thereafter Smeargle's, I steadily made article banners and got more involved overall with the site. I find that I use these banners to experiment with different styles in a way that I usually don't for my personal work, and it's sorta funny putting them all next to each other and seeing my growth (and decay).

Above are some miscellaneous draws I did last year, and I wanna highlight one of them. Smeargle's inktober was a blast to host last year, and seeing everyone come together and encourage newer artists to put themselves out there was really something amazing. Drawing every day with my girlfriend and getting my close friends involved made it all the more special, and I hope we can have another great one in 2025! nwn

Recently I took up the role of coordinating for and producing my own art for the revived Smogon youtube channel. We've been uploading stuff regularly and it's exciting having a new venue for approved artists to show off their work, since the other social media accounts were culled to just mini-analyses. Above are two thumbnails, and four stickers that Kalalokki made into a background for our videos. SHOUTOUTS MY GOATS Dave goldmason RADU Kalalokki Maia wixi for being super encouraging, fun to work with, and giving me the chance to make Pokemon Happen on The Internet. It's been a blast leading all of the thumbnail stuff so far and I'm excited to see the channel grow and our content improve.

MY TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN!!! MY TOUYS!!!!! if you've been exposed to my presence for long enough you know about me and my wife Stories' fursonas, and how annoying we can be about it. the blue one is an axolotl-dolphin-pooltoy-kobold girl named Calico (ashley named her species Aqua Pup) and the other one is Hope, a red panda-fox-highland cow-plushie girl. ill probably post more of them in this thread but theres way too much to share and most of my art of them is OLD and BAD!!


was gonna do a shoutouts section but this is already a pretentious thread and id rather just do a quick list. hi Wifi Gimmicky ausma cheru Kiwi AlyssaVGC Finchely rumia thank you for being some of my favorite people ily all :3​
 
How is this so peak

I really appreciate the shoutout, it’s been great getting to know you more and you’re a super wonderful person to be around :)
 
your work looks fantastic!!! the very rounded shape language is such a defining characteristic of your art and is something that definitely sets it apart from anything else i've seen. please keep it up!! :psyglad:
 
queen uppa you are my goat never stop dropping peam <3​

Personal work!! I like to play and draw!!!

omitting doodles this time around since I admittedly haven't put out a lot of good ones. art courses are taking up a ton of my time and energy nowadays, I hope to share some of my favorite work from then at the end of the semester (maybe)​

idk how power scaling works across different animes but
meruem died to radiation poisoning so i dont think he can travel between planets or anything and thats pretty similar to my limits. hes just really strong and his power is having a cool tail, like me.
i havent watched dbz but im pretty sure any character from it would easily murder any hxh character, i like to think i would win over goku with my charm and wit and we become friends though. maybe he takes me on a tour of all of the dbz themed street food vendors across the world and we can chow down. we can invite meruem and he can tell us about how the yummy elote or falafel taught him that there are human skills worth protecting outside of one's combat capabilities
