Drawtober day 1: Beebs from Zeurel's #monkeywrench
Love drawing him, his design is so distinctive that even if you're a bit off, you know it's him.

monochrome watercolor and ink drawing of Bulldog "Beebs" Browns, a heavyset humanoid alien with a mechanical left arm. He is looking offscreen and holding an axe, apparently about to step into battle.

The new WoW patch is fun, but the delve nemesis is a MENACE

World of Warcraft screenshot from the Sidestreet Sluice delve, of Brann Bronzebeard snoozing by a campfire. A nearby tombstone indicates that someone perished here recently. A sketched-in addition portrays a night elven woman, looking very displeased, and a word balloon that says "I hate that f***ing ethereal."

You know, of any place online, Tumblr is probably the most understanding about switching up what you post. I have plenty of mutuals I followed for one thing and now they're into something totally different, and that's pretty cool

ravenous little bastards wouldn't give me two seconds of peace and ate the entire strip of lunchmeat we left on a nearby plate to try to get them to leave us alone

#artfight for my friend Stel, who I'm not sure is here on Bluesky, but that's her character Tisiphone on the right, dancing with my gal Tuala.

Pretty proud of myself for this one; I've never done a full-blown watercolor scene like this before.

#TeamFossils

Two pirate women, one with a series of thick shoulder-length cornrows and the other with a long braid of dark red hair and a jagged scar across her face, dance with each other on the deck of a ship. In the background, a man plays fiddle on the railing and the red-haired woman's crewmates cheer her on.

This one's for my friend @saposii.bsky.social, of their character Quinn. I'm really happy with how this one turned out. Ink, white colored pencil, and white acrylic paint marker on toned paper.

#TeamFossils

A young woman, beautiful and full-figured, is facing the camera as she grips the steering wheel of a car clearly going very fast down a stretch of open road. She is wearing several small piercings, heavy eyeliner, black lipstick, and large cross earrings, which are echoed by the cross swinging from the rearview mirror.

Artfight attack on my sister @riverbase.bsky.social!

Come at me, y'all. artfight.net/~Allysdelta

An anthropomorphic cat character with brown tabby coloration and large green eyes kneels backwards on a chair, curling her hands delicately over the back. She is smiling hopefully at someone offscreen.

People joke about California, but I love my state.

I called the Horrific Visions "N'zoth's self-insert fanfiction" and my friend watching me play absolutely lost it

Okay, serious answer: the perspective that heroes come at all scales, and the world is improved in little ways, by many people doing the best they can. There is no Chosen One to single-handedly save the world; we save ourselves, and each other.

Look. I know it's tempting, but when a creator turns out to be an awful person, you're REALLY not helping things by boasting about how you never liked their work.

Congratulations, you don't have to struggle with letting go of something that you loved. Have some sympathy for the people who do.

Undermine(d) happened, and then goblin OCs happened #worldofwarcraft

Two World of Warcraft-inspired goblin characters with dark pink hair and magenta eyes, standing side by side grinning at the camera with an arm around each other. On the left is Lexigail Fuseclip, who sports an undercut and adventurer's armor. On the right is her brother Lysander "Sandy" Fuseclip, who wears work clothes and carries a wrench. Lexi is holding her hand behind Sandy's head in the classic "bunny ears" prank.

One of the things I really hate about right now is that we're forced to expend ALL THIS ENERGY in defense and survival, when we could've used it for... I dunno, literally anything else

Allysdelta @allysdelta.bsky.social · Mar 23

I really, REALLY don't think it's safe. Not just the border and general attitude in the country, but flying itself. We've got a major shortage of competent air traffic controllers due to... STUFF, and there has been an alarming number of crashes recently.

Gotta love a guy who knows what he's worth, demands it up front, and encourages everyone else to do the same.
#worldofwarcraft #Gazlowe #WoW;TWW

A night elven player character offers an apology to Monte Gazlowe for the altercations during the island expeditions in the Fourth War. Gazlowe replies that it's all water under a long-gone bridge, and that he hopes the Alliance paid her as well as the Horde paid him... and implies that she'd better demand proper compensation if not.

Undermine may be my new favorite #worldofwarcraft zone. #artistsonbluesky

Monte Gazlowe sits on a ledge overlooking Undermine, appearing contemplative. Beside him is a tiny chest small enough to fit in his hand. The Incontinental Hotel stands in the distance, searchlights streaming.

I used to be a passholder, and Cars Land (at least if you're talking about the one in California) is still a relatively "young" attraction -- I don't think it's going anywhere for quite a long time, especially considering its size.

It's a really fun place, too.
