UPDATE.
Brownie or Muffin spotted! Today they were showing to a pair of very complacent cats who's boss.
They aren't the brightest squirrel around, I gave them a nut, but I had to repeatedly point out where I put it. As they looked, my finger got booped by a squirrely nose. 🥺

It's Saturday, the plan for today is cleaning up and let me procrastinate. I'm doodling digitally some pages with comfort bisexual disasters in the modern au. The plan is keeping this a sketch and silent, we'll see!

Yesterday was a nope, today a pose study with Priscilla, my #dragonagerook. She turned one, and she's definitely a good character with my favourite romance in the wrong context.

Today it's studies over #ghilan'nain anatomy from #dragonage.
Mother of monsters invented carcinisation (aka: made herself more crab-like).
I had allegedly too much fun.

In a rare instance of "I have nothing to do this weekend!", I tried some oil pastels I inherited from my mom/got in the years.
The experiment had mixed feelings. I liked the vibrant colours, but they're patchy af, and I'm not a fan of having to wash my desk afterwards.
