(My posts can have typos, sorry!)

Blue-haired slim orc, smiling. He wears a red leather outfit, a scarf and many jewelry and strips with orcish and pandaren runes.

A Pandaren brewmaster monk. He appears in greyscalr shades, while the energy (blue-water and red-fire) are spiraling around him.

A traveller facing a sea side. Floating lanterns are getting toward a tori. In the background, we can see mountains.

Thank you for everyone who quietly stopped by and trusted the process! 😅
One more painting session and a few light tweaking, and this frame will be done!

After a panda screen fail, we are playing Taran Zhu's origins (Cozy Caravan) for half an hour, before switching to art and 2D environment texture.

Do not tell that old grumpy Pandaren sensei how to hold a staff and attack a training dummy.
Mei-Phang quickly lost their patience, there...
(So I did with those runes!😅)

QdNox @qdnox.bsky.social · 13h

Mei-Phang: White Crane, may I know what you are doing here?

White Crane: *winks*

Mei-Phang: ... vacation? ... I don't believe you.

"It is never too late to learn kindness...😊"

Sha-Taran is doing his best to be/look "kind", so Cho will invite him again. 🐼🖤

A stretch-sketch, freely inspired by a post from Artistgem, (except that I swapped Taran by Sha-Taran, and it is a friendly outing, instead).

#pandaren

Digital sketch of two Pandarens in an animal sanctuary:
Lorewalker Cho and Sha-Taran.
Cho is surrounded by many critters: a little bird resting on his hang (waiting for a biscuit), a cloud serpent hatchling (blowing heart-shaped smoke and peaking the biscuit box) on his shoulder, and an albinos tiger cub sleeping near his feet.
Sha-Taran is sitting next to Cho. A tiger cub is happily chewing his arm and he is staring at him with a lot of anger... Another tiger cub paw is visible, suggesting that more than one cub is using Sha-Taran as a playground...

"Imagine if I became a tiny piece of scroll. I could study any ancient parchment from such an unique perspective!..."

"...Please never tell that to Xiang..."

"You could keep me in your pocket, bring me everywhere!"

"..."

Finished Cho's 2D details during the second part of the stream!

Quick stretch-sketch before a long coloring session.

It is bamboo day, and I have all my Panda Minecraft figures around...

So get a quick comics with Sha-Taran trying to befriend Lorewalker Cho! 🐼💚🖤

Sha-Taran angrily playing Minecraft on his console.
He is planning to hit a panda but misclick and feed it instead,
causing the panda to happily react with a few hearts.

Feeding Cho with bamboo!!

He is sitting on the ground, smiling and handing a bamboo toward Cho's direction.
The lorewalker looks at him with a puzzled expression.

I am glad we all agree how hilarious is the Object vs Edit mode on that frame! 😆

QdNox @qdnox.bsky.social · 23h

No worries! A bunch of fireworks is enough against the daimyos of the Zhu clan.
Go, Cho!!
Protect your husband's honor!!

That grumpy face!
Quick stretch-sketch of Sha-Taran during a phone call

(I may need to change my tablet soon, because they could guess from the scratching sound that I was drawing while talking! 😅)

#pandaren

Stretch-sketch digital drawing of Sha-Taran.
He looks a bit grumpy, but this is his casual expression.
Sha-infused spikes and tattoos are covering his shoulders and arms.

When people are watching vs when he thinks nobody is watching. 😆

"Hi, Takehiko! Takehiko! So you know grandpa?! So cool!! Hi, Hi, Hiii! Do you have a snack?! Takeeehiko!! Play with us!"

Mei-Phang is not sure what is suddenly causing them such a huge migraine. That new brew they tried, or all these whelps flying around them.

But they need whelp...help!

Senegos: "Eheh. Smol."

Mei-Phang: "Save your energy for relevant stuff, old man."

Senegos: "So. SMOL."

(My headcanon is that Senegos can feel Shan's blessing from Mei-Phang, and he cannot help but tease his old friend.)
