Been a while since I’ve done a full piece; this one’s supposed to mimic the Y2K experience of popping an anime disk into your old VCR set and watching on your parents old-ass CRT tv.
I’d love to make a series that invokes the older 80s/90s style of animation someday tbh. Ghost in the Shell style.

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Highly recommend: throwing any and all creatives a DM/comment/email to let them know how their work touched you, whether now or in the past.

I never expect a reply. But doing this regularly not only helps others see their art is valued, but improves your own confidence & connection.

Don't be afraid of ghosts.
Make friends with them.
Collect them on your travels through the old forest, forgotten catacombs, and ancient cemeteries.
Build an army of ghosts and rule the night together, forever.

@starmotte.bsky.social 's character, Carmen!! Loving him a lot in RoW, I really badly wanted to draw him last month, laughs.

[ #art , #oc ]

Half-body, though watermarked version, of Carmen, smiling and possibly waving, while looking a bit tired as well.

A sketch of @starmotte.bsky.social 's sona, Virgo!

[ #artfight , #sketches ]

Sketch of Virgo-- one is a neutral sorta half body, while the other is Virgo with a more menacing expression. The only color here is in the eyes and cheek circles of the moth, a bright green.
