Bought new in May of 2024. It’s never not had a case and screen protector on it bc I’m paranoid. I can take more pics.

I don’t need it because 1) I’m quitting art as a profession, and 2) I have an XP-Pen drawing display. I really don’t need both.

I’ll add more pics of accessories when I get home.

Favorite piece: Maybe one of these two? Not sure tbh

Program: Procreate!

Favorite brush: Monoline (default procreate), Round Rull soft, and Smooth sketching!

A drawing of a man with split black and white hair holding his hand up to a fish eye lense camera as he looks into it. The camera has a cctv type filter over it, with a time code and other random camera-y things I don’t know much about

Purely bc I'm tired of seeing so much crap on my newsfeed. I rarely come on here, anymore.

Following a lot of "starter packs" was a BAD idea.

Here's one thing you can do: a disney+ subscription is around 16 dollars.

Go on Patreon/Kofi, find your top 16 creators/youtubers with less than a million subscribers and give them each $1 a month.

Changes lives, believe me

Mathew Buck @filmbrainbmb.bsky.social · 27d

I think it's becoming clear that if you like indie creators, you're going to need to support them any way you can. And that doesn't mean money, just spreading worth of mouth can be powerful as well.

Revisited an attempt to capture likeness. I did Angela Bassett no justice. She's too beautiful. 😭 The only sketch I really like is Jessica Lange's.

1st one: 2020
2nd: 2025

I still suck at capturing likeness. LMAO But I've gotten better, at least!

Three likeness study attempts featuring Zoe, Misty, and Myrtle from American Horror Story: Coven.

Idk why but streaming on Picarto feels like high pressure than on Twitch.

I might switch to just streaming on Picarto.
