[Video ID: Video of the teapot being rotated counterclockwise from both a front-on and overhead view. It shows how the painted scene transitions from the field, to the spout and the tree’s foliage, to the field, the handle, and then back again. End of ID]

Teapot I painted for an analogue media class

Copy pasting this text from my DA upload which was in turn copy-pasted from discord:

I needed to work on drawing fat bodies so this is partially a practice exercise. These characters are from a species of humanoid space dwellers who live near the earth. The sun orbiting the earth in their story used to be a red giant until its guardian deity took the last piece of its power away and it shifted into a white dwarf. So these characters are supposed to be representative of different time periods

I imagine that the fashion choices & appearances of their people are typically reflective of the celestial bodies nearby them

One day I’ll get around to posting my new art but— oh what’s this? A newly acquired copy of Baldur’s Gate 3 on my pc? Well, I suppose one playthrough couldn’t hurt…

HI EVERYONE READ MY MENDERBUG FIC FOR @hkhallowzine

This was a holiday piece that I never posted bc I wanted to keep it as a backup in case I wasn’t able to finish my zine piece

You can see various dishes in this that I ended up re-using for my zine illustration, mainly: the honey glazed gulka, the weaver silk cheese and vinegar-based stew, the maggot steak, the fruit stuffed uoma, and more!

🤍 Delve Into HallowHome Vol. 2 🤍

Go ahead, traveler! Explore our zine to see the daily lives of Hallownest's familiar residents shown through absolutely gorgeous art and writing. We hope you enjoy the journey 💜

I needed a new blog to use as a testing dummy for making a tumblr themes, but it needs to have a lot of posts that have a variety of (clearly indicated) elements for me to fully test everything

So I made a new sideblog and I'm praying to god that no one will notice the reblogs/comments that I'm making with it (reblog chains and posts with high note counts are on the list of things I need test) because my blog is literally a default pfp and the name "testblog[random-string-of-numbers]" and my comments are things like "This is a reblog of a chain of posts" and "This is a reblog of a post with a video in it"

Finally finished these. This some sketches I have for a TMAxDC crossover idea based on the fic All You Have (Is Your Fire) by ambrosed. My idea slightly veers off from their’s and god if you thought my artist commentary on the DPxDC post was long you’re in for a fucking treat with this one bc I have so many ideas. Like 13 more paragraphs of text available under the cut

🤍 Contributor Lineup 🤍

Happy Hollow Knight Day! To celebrate our upcoming zine release + an amazing game, we want to show off HallowHome's incredible team of amazing contributors!!
