[Start ID. A Drawing Of Idroa, A Roughly Humanoid Black And Red Robot With Four Arms, Floating In Midair.

[Start ID. A drawing of Idroa, a roughly humanoid black and red robot with four arms, floating in midair. One arm is brought up to the collection of wires and many-eyed wheels replacing his head in a vague pointing motion, the other at cogs side, and the lower pair is open, spread low at about a 45 degree angle to their body. Translucent folded wings are shown behind her. The background is composed of the faint shapes of maroon buildings and machinery. End ID]

Comm for @vibecenter13 !!

ultrabright colors and gradation map my beloved

[Start ID. Three color variations of the same messy sketch on a white background. Each one depicts V1 from Ultrakill, in the same pose as the protagonist on the cover for Doom. They're standing on a pile of gore rather triumphantly and lifting a Husk with one arm, by where its collar would be. The original drawing was in bright red, yellow, and blue, and the two others are in much softer palettes, one shades of green and the other purple through yellow. End ID]

[Start ID. A half-body doodle of a screen-faced humanoid robot, my sona, smiling as it looks at its phone. Both them and the phone emit the symbols of Tumblr's likes and reblogs. The text pointing to it reads "accidentally started a likespamming match with a cool blog". End ID]

symbiotic relationship :]

Hi, Peridot! Just letting you know that you're awesome and I hope the new year is gentle on you ❤️

~A stranger on Tumblr who's wishing you the best

[Start ID. A drawing of the Pale King, Lurien, his Butler, Monomon, Quirrel, Hornet and Herrah on two couches by a fire, clockwise. On opposite ends of one couch Herrah and Monomon gesture vaguely as they talk to each other, the former with a joyful expression. Between them, Quirrel looks to the side at Hornet, who is playing with tinsel, its silvery other end wrapped around Herrah's horns. Further from the camera, Lurien listens to his butler, who's standing by the armrest. The Pale King leans against Lurien and the two are cloaked in a fluffy blanket. The drawing has a red tone, appearing to take place in a room of the eastern City of Tears, and is intended to feel like a fond memory. End ID]

1, 8, and 18 for the asks~!

1: Favorite color to work with

Never really thought about it before! I don’t think I actually have a specific color (maybe greens or reds, but I’m not sure those aren’t just often-used as opposed to well-liked), but the eyestrain, bright yellow/red/teal/blue palette definitely fits the bill, it’s Very fun to use. Gold’s fun to render, too.

8: Show some art from 1-2 years ago

Boye. 1-2 years is a large time frame. I’m taking it to mean anything between one and two years ago, which pretty much lands everything in 2021. I’m not sure if this was supposed to be pieces I actually still like or an accurate representation of that year, I’ll choose the first, as I wouldn’t consider most of it terribly interesting.

Feb 18 - one of my very few lineless pieces, for a person I engaged in frequent art trades with

Sep 4 - yeah we sure are gonna skip seven months, here’s one of the first times I used a non-black color for shading/lineart: a beloved older OC, mosa :]

Sep 28 - A cropped screenshot from a time I tried pixel art again. Surprisingly, it wasn’t connected to any media or world of mine, I just had an idea for an animation (...that did become the basis for a lesser fictional world). Unfortunately the file’s autosave was overwritten and it wasn’t finished, so a couple screenshots and a video of my progress are all that remain of it

18: How long have I been drawing? When did I begin to call myself an artist?

Funny thing is I was just wondering about that. I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil, I've had long phases of experimenting with clay and origami and pipe cleaners, five years ago I made an art folder for school that was so filled by my various drawings and doodles it's now two inches thick (I carried it around with me everywhere, no matter the circumstance), four years ago I added pixel art to the menagerie, and yet I only actually considered myself an artist two years ago. That was when I was gifted an old art tablet, and thus began what I've previously described as a personal renaissance, as I was allowed access to tools I never used before, diversified and improved, forgot everything I thought I knew about art to learn it again. Fun times.
