🎉 hedgeday
digital art by RL; a colored bust of Reigen the horned hedgehog (he/they). He's looking offscreen and grinning while smoking a cigarette and tooting a noise-maker. His eyes are lidded, he looks somewhat tired, but it's his birthday so it's okay. He's shaded with a green/blue tint and highlighted with a yellowish one.

stream successful!! today we started a silverfish painting (and forgot i left my game up, thus getting whacked by flayers, naturally)
Digital art by RL; Project Silverfish fanart of two Inheritor scavengers walking side by side. The background is snowy and cold and dark and the figures are very sketchy and loose. The scav on the left is wearing a white mask (Ro; they/she) is looking to the one on the right (Kab; she/her), who is wearing a red scouter. They are both decked out in various shades of gray, brown and red tactical gear. They seem to be having a conversation, which I'm told is really great for midnight stealth missions in the snow. (I don't think Silverfish has snow in it, but I have snow where I am, so now everyone has to suffer.)

stream successful!! today we watched Ratt dodge some giant horrific monsters and also i bundled up reigen bc it's cold outside
digital art by RL; Reigen, a brown horned hedgehog, glares off to the right. He looks kinda pissed off. He doesn't like the cold much but he's from a cold state, so, y'know. He's smoking a cigarette and wearing a FLOOFY hooded jacket. The floof is overtaking his quills and hair but his ears are sticking out of it because it looks cute.

stream over!! today i drew a bug!!

see y'all Sunday!!
digital art by RL; a work-in-progress sketch/color page of their Protogen, Weatherbug. Weatherbug is brown/orange/black/white in coloration -- for what little is colored. There's several drawings; one on the left of Weatherbug holding up a spark, two 'weather' windows showing a snowy forecast and snowfall, and a color-draft where I mess up a lot and haven't finished yet but they're kinda just standing there looking like they're waiting for someone to finish coloring them already.

stream successful!! ... after missing the first hour we touched up a big aurelius (and also blew up a toaster)
Digital Art by RL; Aurelius (any/all) hunches down in the middle of a city street, roughly as tall if not a little taller than the buildings around him. He's tugging on his hat brim while looking down at street level. The image is shaded with a greenish shadow and purplish highlight and a rough vellum texture.

stream successful! i mostly got heartburn and watched digimon have a rap battle (also i bullied my wife)
digital sketch by RL; Rosetta (she/they) looking entirely too full of juice. She's huge, I am bad at describing just how huge in words, but her neck is a big tire-shape. She's looking up and over to the left of the canvas at something, and or trying to avoid making eye-contact with the viewer.

stream successful!! today Reigen had lunch and RL drew a cactus
digital art by RL; snapshot of a lasso-tool doodle. The subject is buckthorn cholla, a cactus with orange and red blooms -- and a shitload of needles. Just. Like. All of em. RL rendered as many needles as his fingers could stand.

digital art by RL; three balloons together on a canvas. The balloons are pink, green and blue. They were rendered separately but cropping them was impossible so I layered them on top of each other.

stream complete~! today i drew a bunch of plants and flowers and also one very dapper man!

see y'all Sunday!
Digital Art by RL; A black and white pencil and lasso-fill drawing of Reigen (he/they; horned hedgehog) wearing a floral-print vest and a pinstripe shirt. He's holding a cigarette that is grandma-ashing to the nines and is looking right through it, probably because he's disassociated as hell. He'll notice when the cherry hits his fingers, probably.

it's been pretty rough not gonna lie
doodle by RL; Lowell (it/they/he) stands stark at attention, its one-eye wide. They are developing an idea while stating how excited they are to have an idea, considering their head has been blank for several weeks now for multiple complicated reasons. Lowell Thinking: *DEVELOPS A FIXATION* Lowell Speaking: Oh thank goodness I thought I had gone dead inside again

stream successful! today we had no idea what we were doing and then suddenly we had aurelius in a dress

(i couldn't fuckin get my pens feeling right so we just stuck w/ binary and lasso tool today)
Digital Art by RL; Aurelius, a blue-colored long-eared creature (any/all) looks to the left. They are facing away from the viewer, showing off their back and mane of quills. They are outlined and highlighted in orange. They are wearing a dress with a pleated back. (The bottom is pleated too, but this isn't done yet, so you just gotta imagine it, sorry.) Around them are oranges and pinks, a bit like a sunset / sunrise.

stream over! today i did more rust shaking and pulled this out of storage to finish it.

(i was very blank-brained today and chat was very kind. ;w; thank you. aaa)
digital art by RL; Aurelius (any/all; blue anthro with a lot of ears and quills) looks offscreen to the left with a large, sneering grin on her face. She's gently backlit in white with a purple/orange overlay. She's wearing a white flatcap and a brown tank top with a fern/rib pattern. Her ears are all over the place, making it difficult to determine what is quill and what is hair and what can hear you talking shit.

hear them on the hilltop laughing
digital doodle by RL; a single-stroke background of a bridge, a river, a bank, and some hilly mountains. aurelius, scribbled in, sits atop the bridge and stares up at birds flying across the landscape. the words "cursing every bird in the air" is in the upper right, taken from the song 'godless brother in love' by iron & wine.

good morning we're resuming mspaint dailies
digital doodle by RL; Aurelius, a jackalope thing, with his hair in his face hiding his eyes. he looks like he just woke up and you're standing between him and the fridge for some goddamn reason. (it's drawn in light blue binary pen.)

stream over, today we admired a criminal!!
Art by RL; Ratt, a brown anthro rat, stands in the foreground half-dressed in wedding attire, pulling out a gun and holding it up to the viewer. She's grinning. In the background, Aurelius, a blue anthro hedgebeast, stands at the altar and blushes, watching her wife stick up the wedding party. RAT: thanks for coming to my wedding now give me all your goddamn money AURELIUS: oh,

feeling it, but looking up
digital art by RL; in a sketchy, notebook-doodle style, Reigen stands with his arms awkwardly swung to one side as he looks skyward. His eyes are obscured by a shadow. There's thick black stitching on the background that follows him into the composition; the stitch-line follows Reigen up through his body and across his face. He has two wings detached from his body with big 'X's separating them from his shoulders.

stream concluded! today we attacked Reigen. like from start to finish.
digital art; Reigen with a shirt that says 'BODY BY SONIC THE RESTAURANT' looking off to the side and sweating. he appears to be more rotund than usual. it's probably nothing.
