So I Haven't Posted Any Art In A Bit. I Guess Given My Tendency To Post So Rarely Kinda Hides That. Anyway.

So i haven't posted any art in a bit. I guess given my tendency to post so rarely kinda hides that. Anyway.

We're so back.

The very first thing i drew after turning my tablet back on after a month long anxiety episode. What better to help than a guy who's more unstable than oneself? Gotta love em.

"As Above So Below"

Or something, idk.

A sketch i wasn't about to do lineart for but still liked the concept of enough to do all the other stuff.

flying the original character artist flag with pride

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

To keep you safe online!

I meant this to be transparent, and as you can tell, it didnt end up as such. However, i have other art ideas i want to get to, so this is what we got. Based on those old computer angel pins, one of which i came across on Pinterest. Neat little guy.
