I haven't been actually posting here in a long time. Perhaps because of work, perhaps because of other distractions, perhaps because i momentarily lost the spark that made me create so much before... well, i hope i'm wrong for that last part. :P

I'm sorry for not giving news, do not worry, i'm ok. Though i don't feel like haven't improved that much at life in 2025. It's disappointing, knowing that i achieved many things in 2024, but some people told me 2025 was more of a "checkup" year to many, so lets think it that way.

Since i don't believe in good resolutions (at least, not without a clear system), it's better to not bring up any objective for 2026, except contentment... and hopefully creative actions ! ♥

Oh ! And here's a pic of me holding the Secret Santa gift i got during a retro gaming event. I keep being a new mom every year. XD

Hi! I received this ask ages ago, idk if you're even still here or alive anon, but I'm going to respond to it!

I don't have a very fixed style, so i guess this is a hard question for me to answer, but here are a few artsists that are always in the back of my mind!

First, Stupidoomdoodles. She did a lot of cool DBZ Vegebul comics a few years ago. Her style was quite "simple", but i've yet to find an artist whose expressions made me laugh more that hers. Sadly she has deleted most of her art/blogs so you can only find her art reposted. Whenever you see me drawing big round stupid eyes... that's her legacy.

In the same ballpark, @kebabcito recently is killing me with their expressive and sketchy comics, with top-notch character designs. And that texture mmmmh... I REALLY have an itch to do more comics (the problem being: having time and ideas).

Animation-wise, I obviously am influenced a lot by Ghibli (who isn't), but people like Felix Colgrave (bc I love how disturbing yet coherent and colorful his world is) or Louis Zong (bc this man's content is so funny and i love how much he blends techniques, music, animation, everything together...I WISH I KNEW HOW TO DO THAT DAMN) are also big inspirations.

@ameliecausse is a very dear friend of mine (coucou si tu lis ça :D ). She influenced a lot the way i think about backgrounds, and her digital paintings were so good they pushed me to do more lineless art, and to incorporate already existing textures into some of my drawings. Also I stole a bunch of photoshop brushes from her shhh.

I need to mention FMA: not only is it my favorite manga, i use to copy pages from it, a lot. I think it KIND OFs hows in the way i draw heads??... idk. (i know i never draw anything FMA-related, but you don't "need" to do fanart for a piece of media that is already perfect imo. At least for me, fanart is always born of a mix of excitement and frustration). Recently I've learned to love very colorful art more than ever, like Moebius, or Dominique Ramsey's art. Anyone who draw weird creatures/animals already has my love, but her!!! Wow... What can I say. Just go see her stuff please.

Speaking of colorful art, my lastest illustration shows i think how much @cy-lindric's work had an impact on me. There are hundreds of other artists I would to love to talk about, but this post is already too long. So here is a recent art mindblow of mine to finish this post:

The COMPOSITION! The MEANING... the COLORS...

Thank you for that very interesting question!

Je viens de finir les 6 livres de Kaamelott (en deux jours tmtc 😌) et du coup je viens de regarder le "Roi Arthur", de 2004 avec Clive Owen et Keira Knightley.

Bref dans cette version Lucan est un petit gars emmuré avec Guenièvre par des Chrétiens (un poil extrémistes les mecs) puis sauvé(s) par notre bon Arthur.

Tout ça pour dire que le petit Lucan il a pas de parents dans cette version et que du coup il tombe un peu sous la protection de Guenièvre et Arthur (et Dagonet, mais bon la version Kaamelott de Dagonet fait pas rêver!).

Bah, dites-vous que j'arrive pas à m'enlever d'la tête cette image de Arthur+ Guenièvre+ Little Lucan...

Ça va partir en illustration ou en fic, cette histoire... Du Made in France Kaamelott, j'entends... Mais quand même je suis un peu dans le love de ce headcanon...

"10 beautiful and rare english words you never heard of" and it's 8 words from other languages + 2 antique english words

"omg the way this person pronounces this word is so funny" and it's 1) a perfectly reasonable mispronounciation for a non native speaker 2) a loanword that the person is actually properly pronouncing regarding the original language
