February: Theoretical design WIP for Virame, a side character from Tsuname's story.

March: Image of Lily for my Knights & Lilies PowerPoint.

April: Six of the Torn Apart sisters, plus another, snoozing in a library. (The bookshelves are full of references to me and my friends' stories as well as OCs, webtoons I like, animes, and even a manga magazine.) Full image here.

May: Shiido work doodle. I put his name through google translate and wrote down his name in as many unique scripts as I could find. Bonus points to whoever can pick out the script(s) that are actually from one of my constructed languages. :3

June: Sz'nami in water form. It's a thumbnail edit of this pic from June 2021.

July: @crystallinkcreations's Penelope for ArtFight! You can find the full image in this post.

August: Waizu, the pontificating scientist-philosopher father figure to Naru and Shiido. He teaches them that evil must be destroyed from the worlds he purges. You can find his post here.

September: @a-random-cc's character, Tares, from Torn Apart! I'm sorry I never finished this. :') Full image here.

October: A little running animation I did of Paria from my story Knights & Lilies.

November: A visual representation of a certain Herr's sound perception, based on my experiences in a crowded lunch room. I have a couple extra frames where he's walking, but I decide to save those and freeze him on the frame I showed in the summary of art since the animation isn't finished. :P

December: Part of yet another animation WIP, this frame of Sz'nami. I decided to render it in the summary of art picture at the end of December to make it look even nicer. :P

Lots of WIPs and sketches this year, haha. Sometimes I really need somebody to kick me to finish things. XPP

Radiana Waterina

Rainwater gathers in its small, clear blossoms. The buds within their them glow faint blue at certain times of year. It is said to gather energy from the moon and stars and condense it into liquid form, storing it in the cup formed by its petals.

A close relative of the Radiana Kandia, it can be found on both continental Fuline Ah and Reline Ah, as well as their islands.

Madazumi Mystilief with Pachipachi Vine

This well-like plant draws water from the ground. It is native to Coraln Sing, the continent known for its abundance of water and flooded desert aesthetic.

Since the plant acts like a drain on surrounding land, sometimes plants with lower water needs find shelter by it, such as the Pachipachi Vine.

Madazumi Mystiliefs also tend to become incubators for seedlings that find its way into its expansive blossom, lending to their nickname "Mother Mystilief"

Pachipachi Vines are thought to be related to the Spotil family because of their similar fruits. The fruits themselves have a sour, almost electrifying taste well-balanced with sweetness. Since they only grow around Mystiliefs and other land-draining plants in certain conditions, they're a rather rare find. Nevertheless, their fruits are sometimes used during the Tea Festival when enough of them can be found, either as refreshments or as part of tisanes. Their particular flavor and biological make-up help prepare one for the Ultimate Tea, as their powerful flavor is connected to the amount of ultiminium they contain.

Parts of Madazumi Mystiliefs can be used as decorations, and the sprouts that grow in its water are particularly flavorful. Though the hard texture of Mystiliefs makes them inedible, the water they pull up from the ground is particularly sweet and powerful. It is also thought to infuse ultiminium into the water it pulls up, which could explain why Pachipachi Vines thrive near them, as they require ultiminium to fruit in large quantities.

Water gathered by Madazumis is thought to be an ingredient in the Ultimate Tea, but given the vast amount of it served each year, it is likely that there are other sources of similar ingredients that can be found in larger quantities.

The Autograph Part 2-7

To wrap up we have the rest of the sketches for the little comic for @chrystallink, featuring her chars Clysmia, Blake, Cider, and Fahrenheit. Hailey and Dia's persona are also featured in line on the third (second here) page, and the latter a little bit on page 6 (image 5), but they're hard to see. And of course, my joke char Bob the Faceless Gaunto. XD

Dellana Pichrüt

A rare tuber-producing plant that can sometimes be found growing near the Great Buddy Lake during the dry season. It can be a bit finicky, not liking too much water but also not wanting to be without it.

The taste of the Pichrüt is comparable to that of a peach, though it also has some turnip-like qualities to it.

The disappearance of the Dellana Pichrüt caused many to believe that they no longer could be found anywhere in the world, but a few sightings of them by the Great Buddy Lake have proved that the plant does still in fact exist.

Blua Elektraika

A flower found in the Bleuka Stormana Zone of the Storm Dimension. It grows only where lightning strikes blue, and lightning strikes themselves are thought to seed the ground there with Blua Elektraikas. Not much is known about these flowers at this time, as the Stormana Zones are usually found high in the air, only easily accessible to Electric Buddys that can withstand the storm and fly.
