Dinner! Bolognese with Paccheri. Didn't make the pasta myself, it just looked fun. It has a nice texture! Think it would be better used with a saucier dish. Very tasty tho!

Just another pork roast with butter roasted carrots and asparagus for dinner, but the crackling turned out fantastically tonight!

She's dancing... If you're asking.

Got it in my head to draw Bad Gal Lily as Ankha. It was fun! Good study in hip mechanics and centre of balance.

Another Drink & Draw drawing of an old RPG character I made when I was 16 - I actually think she used to have a weapon, but I can't remember what it was. Maybe a glaive or a spear? She's very Vegeta coded.

There are many fine jokes in the new @teamfourstar.bsky.social Toonami Abridged, but one in particular compelled me to replicate it in drawn form.

I rarely do art challenges and memes and things, but I had a long-ass corporate day and I just wanted to feel like an artist, so I did the #Frieren challenge and thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Dinner! Roast pork, rice, garlic roast carrots, broccoli, caramelised red onions, crackling, and as voted by @hookland.bsky.social and @lorenzohall.com, delicious gravy 👀

Met this absolute chonk of a lad while walking through Whinny Hill Woods today.
A large red-bodied, white-syemmed mushroom with faded yellowish spots on its body and a large chunk taken out of it to expose the spore gills underneath. It is standing among moss and fallen, autumnal leaves.

Look, I'm no PeePeePooPoo, and it's just a beginner bot, but I'm not very good at chess and I managed to win a game so I'm quite pleased with myself - Hey @drrehaminator.bsky.social, Rate My Mate! :D
A chess board at game end. White has put black in checkmate by directly threatening the king with a rook, and indirectly with two knights and a bishop. The white queen prevents black's only remaining knight from taking out the white rook.

Another drawing of the gal who's either too hot or too cold, I can't tell. Think I've got drawing oversized jackets down now, and I'd been struggling yesterday with a low angle shot so I used refs to help me.

Kids, if anyone tells you using reference is cheating, you can spit in their eye for me.

Carne asada fajitas for dinner. Used Denver Steak, as I couldn't get skirt or bavette steak. Tasty enough, but a bit tough.

Are these the worst things I've ever done? Undoubtedly.

Can I entirely blame it on @discodave75.bsky.social's encouragement? Absolutely!

... I still feel the need to apologise. Not gonna stop me from posting them though! :D

Tonight's sketchy sketch from Drink 'n' Draw: Calico Hagon, an old RPG character I designed when I was like, sixteen or thereabouts, as you can probably tell from her... Everything.
A pencil drawing of a woman with cat ears and a tail. She is posing with the metal claws of one gauntlet extended. She is wearing a leather bustier, a studded leather skirt, and turned down leather boots. She has long black hair with half her fringe dyed a different colour, and has a tattoo on her left cheek. Text reads "Calico Hagon".

Did a daft wee sketch of Bad Gal Lily this morning, just to keep my hand in a bit. Haven't been making as much art as of recent, and I do miss it.
