I made an #oc

This stuff's hard, man ;-; Here's Kit and Mal(?)
A sketch of a mechanical woman lies at the center of a large sheet of a blueprint. She is barefoot, wearing a romper that's accentuated by the karate gi that's loosely held up by her belt. She is barefoot, leaning forward with one leg raised upon an old PC monitor, the screen of which displays what looks like a child's stick-horse toy glaring upwards at her. She makes no eye contact with this strange image, looking only up and above the viewer of the blueprint, her right hand framing her chin as her braided hair dangles in front of her chest. Various notes of her personality and lore riddle the sides of the page in tidy handwriting, detailing the shape of her eyes, her favorite attire, how she shaved her head at the restart of her fighting career, and how she died once, among other things. Her name is written along the bottom of the paper as "Kit," with her horse companion tentatively named "Mal," until the artist (that's me) decides to change it to something with a bit more pizazz (the pizazz is probably going to be a pun).

May... June... July-ish? 2024! My first paid commission, a silly lil' Twitch "starting soon" (and ending) screen for @aoichibi.bsky.social ! She's a very endearing person to work with, as are the rest of her Night Gang squad. 🤠 Go check her streams out if ya can~

February 2024 - Another monthly art prompt dealing with "chopsticks" and "salt shaker." Yes I took liberties, I don't care~

January 2024 - A friend of mine, cough @solemnspirits.bsky.social cough ahem, started monthly art prompts! After spinning the wheel, the two themes chosen were "nail clippers" and "wizard." *Definitely* wasn't me who suggested both of those...

Whoah, is that my #MeetTheArtist from May 2023 that took way too much effort to make, and is probably too compressed too read? I think it is! Good thing I'm on other sites like Newgrounds, Cara and Instagram where you can see all my #animations in higher res (or you can read the alt text, I guess)!

July 2022 - Still relevant today

Not sure if the quality hit on here is gonna make this legible, but you can always read the alt-text or see the "HD" versions of this on Cara and such, under my same username... 👀

May 2022 - I was watching a lot of Puyo Puyo on Twitch at the time... Then I remembered Kirby's Avalanche existed, so I made some cannibalistic lil' Puyo-Poyos!

February of 2022 - I animated myself, but it's not very accurate... My hair is *not* that long anymore, and I can't stand using my phone for long periods of time. Everything else in this image is pretty normal though

My first piece of 2022 - An animation for The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening! It was fun emulating the Game Boy color palette, and one of my good friends told me this was one of their "favorite zelda fanarts ever," so that's pretty neat!

My last animation from 2021 - got weird with it and ran with a bubblegum power concept I had. Probably not going to explore that idea further, but a few of my friends really liked this piece, so I'm happy with that!
