My Ex Art Student-weird Ass-sleep Deprived-caffeine Addicted-talented Ass Older Sibling, Everybody!

My ex art student-weird ass-sleep deprived-caffeine addicted-talented ass older sibling, everybody!

I said I would make art, and by god did I do just that (for once)

Here's a little armadillo friend!! I don't know why my mind was immediately set on armadillos when I was looking for something to sketch, but I do know better than to question - t h e m i n d - *insert ominous music*

Now that I think about it, it's probably because we just got armadillos in minecraft lmao

I think he turned out pretty cute! The paws were really fun to put on paper, lots of big, swoopy lines which I love :]

I'm trying to build up some more confidence when it comes to inking, so I forced myself to ignore my anxiety and actually picked up my fineliner for once, instead of just leaving it as a pencil sketch lol

It was really satisfying to see the scales start to pop out from the page, and adding all of the final details in white gel will always be the best part of any art-session (especially all the little hairs on this dude's shell, that was so gratifying) 😌👌

I'll definetly be turning to armadillos more often in the future when I'm looking for sketch material, these funky little guys have so many fun textures, and their cuteness-levels are through the roof TT^TT<3

With all that said, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day! ^-^

Yours truly, Stickbug 🪲

Gotcha! Still great tho!

I'm still really curious to get to know them, lol

(Personally, i can barely write to save my life. I wish i could, and i am working on it in private! But damn, the tism really do make my sentences clunky, stiff, and illogical, lol)

Tiny sneak peek because waiting for the completed ref sheet is literally killing me. I am actually expiring as we speak.

So! i made my first ever gif, I'm not entirely happy with it, but tumblr might appreciate it

I like the way the breathing looks, but i wish I'd redo the tail, but yk, animating on a phone is annoying asf

Have nice day

This is what i woke up to this morning

(It's now 23:01)

Lemme tell you, this gave me a heart attack-

This right here made my day! I can't even put my thoughts into words rn-

Sitting under my little crocheted blanket, with my little squishmallow, in my little armchair in my little corner in my little room, playing minecraft on my little phone while listening to music in my little earbuds, with Hozier and iDKHOW sprinkled in here and there like croutons in an otherwise very bland salad

Oh 100%, lil leo is extremely suspicious of rando's around big leo, peepaw over here forgot what social cues are about a decade ago, so he's basically socially blind

:chinhands: We love us a (turtle)man who's both passionate and knowledgeable! Eshra might ask him for advice because do you know how irritating it is to fill a wardrobe AND be fashionable when you can't wear sleeves, lol

He might bring lil leo along, those two are an absolute fashion menace together, but they usually figure something out! Getting both the teenage and middle age opinion from the same person would probably be helpful imo ^^
