I'm doing my best

The final commission for my friend, Chibi! If you noticed that there's a lot less blue in this night scene, just ignore that, it's still night despite not being blue, I promise.

Commission three of four for my pal, Chibi! It's night, so everything is blue. I didn't make the rules I just follow 'em.

Commission two of four for my friend, Chibi! Really enjoyed getting to animate the background details in this one, helped keep things lively.

Been workin' on some comms for a friend of mine, Aoi_Chibi! Here's the first of four for their starting soon and ending soon screens. I'll get around to posting the others soon!

Trying to design OCs are hard, man... Here's an mechanical girl (Kit) and her totally non-malicious horse-headed conscience (Mal? Troy? Caboodle? Chen?) I made up!

Hey, it's (a) Pun! Pun belongs to @pinuwuk, a good friend of mine that is on the road to recovery from her bout of sickness thanks to her microbial-sized mito-pun-dria, the powerhouse of her cells... And yes, that pun *is* the main inspiration behind this image.

Could you believe that I took my first paid commission? Could you *also* believe that I wasn't available to take it?? But I did it anyway??? This madlad (me) cannot be stopped (he can and he must). Made from scratch for a lil' miss Aoi_ChibiVT over on Twitter, A.K.A. aoi_chibi on Twitch!

Another month, another art prompt challenge! This time around was "chopsticks and salt shaker," so I decided to take *inspiration* from the words instead of taking it literally (I cheated)! Here's a sushi-inspired bottled fairy, the Kikkowoman, in her umami prison. B^)

My friend started up these monthly art challenges, and I figured "oh this'll be funny, I'll throw in some really stupid words, like *nail clippers,* but then I'll add a good word, like *wizard!* This'll be great!" On a wheel of more than 40 words, here we are...

I am aggressively keeping my depressive-artist complex in check to tell you thank you! I really appreciate the kind words, and I promise I am still trying my best! As to why you've not seen my work before, if you take a peek at the timestamps between my works, you'll find the answer to that (and why I lack additional eyeballs). I do have more ideas in the brain bank, and I tend to post more randomness on Twitter (including WIPs when appropriate), so thank you for sticking around! I cannot overstate how thankful I am for comments like these.

Hey, I'm Charles, and here's a needlessly complicated Meet The Artist post! I love animation and making things harder for myself, so thank you all for being patient while I make my silly doodles.

I heard a rumor that a certain individual is going to attempt streaming on Twitch again for the first time in nearly six years... If their internet provider decides to cooperate! In the event that they don't, here's that person's "starting soon" screen, because they spent waaaaay too much effort on this screen to let it go to waste, haha~

To you, and to all the other people who keep finding my work on here, thank you. It's always a surprise to check Tumblr and see one of my pieces was re-discovered and shared around, and it truly makes this website so unique and important. I'm glad everyone here loves Kirby, haha~ I promise, I'm still making stuff! Most of it has been self-indulgent graphical assets for Twitch streaming, but once I get the basics down, I've been sitting on a few ideas I'd love to work through! Every thing I create is taking me one step closer to creating animated shorts, so while I can't promise that I'll be posting more often, or that everything I post will be animated, I am still working. Thank you again, anonymous!

Crippling social anxiety is relatable, right

My first ask :O Thank you very much! Everything I've posted so far has been created with Clip Studio Paint EX! I find the workflow a bit unintuitive for animation work, but I've gotten a decent grasp as to what I'm doing with it now. As for the future, I'm messing around with an old version of Toon Boom Harmony, so we'll see how that goes! I still plan on using Clip Studio for various things, especially since the brush engine is in a league of its own.
