Finally watched the full video about dota short film creators when I woke up, it was so great to see familiar faces being on the screen recognised for their work. It's genuinely inspiring to see dota creative community being a part of the biggest event 🥹

╰(*°▽°*)╯ 🇺🇦 #dota2 artist, Anti-Mage fan Please be kind, I'm trying my best, sometimes I like scaring people with different fandoms
Quick Willow doodle, I just wanted to draw her in coffee shop AU, I don't have any deep meaning behind it 🤓
I really liked Largo and religiously listened to grunge and prog back to back which made me want to make dota-based OC (cringe yes, but I am free). I don't even have a name for them, only the fact that they were inspired by grunge.
I continue conquering clip studio paint, ngl the progress is quite painful, but I got used to its pen pressure and stabilisation, here is half butchered Wei in a new set as a result
Had three soul crushing losses on Anti-Mage to get a sticker from the new event. My boy sucks so much ass, but I'll endure the pain for a crumble of lore and a pretty illustration...
Another fuckass soundcloud white boy magina model and I lose 10 years of my life, fucking god.
TI, and honestly Dota overall, never fails to make me happy, because despite my frequent inactivity and lack of content. There are always people waiting for me. It's such a heartwarming feeling to be a part of this community.
There are at least three record stores near my area, highly depends if Hamburg has records I desperately look for, if so, TI merch won't be the only thing taking up space in my suitcase.
Going to Hamburg for a whole week, would love to just exist around friends and mutuals, listening everyone talk. I'll either be very quiet or won't shut up about old music like a 60 yo man. No in between. I miss everyone badly.
Oh yeah, against all odds I actually managed to draw, I think it only works under the extreme circumstances when I get asked to help with the bundle in less than a week. Here is my highlight, it's unfortunate they approved only 3 out of the bunch I made, the rest is in neph's possession B)
How do people come back to drawing? I haven't held a pen properly in months, it's not like I'm burned out from ideas, more like I don't know how to bring back my muscle memory to even draw shapes, holding a pen feels weird, moving my wrist feels weird, EVERYTHING FEELS WEIRD
First time went to the huge record fair. At the beginning, it was super nerve wracking being around so many people, or even try to look for records. In the end, I managed to chat to nice vendors about the stuff I am looking, and they even helped me find what I wanted, and gave me discounts, heehee 🥰
I've been a listener of heavy music throughout most of my life, still am, but since I've started collecting records, especially old, second-hand used records, I've been discovering a whole new section of music I enjoy a lot. Trippy, prog, psychedelic rock really starts growing on me.
Closed my dusty patreon for indefinite time, there are too many things and my art surely isn't the thing which is I can say is confidentially consistent. Those money were the best emergency money for my parents, at this moment I am in a best position to provide them. Thank everyone for support💖
I had to check if Dawn's innate ability is still the same after I spent hours on this drawing #dota2
No self indulgent art for my bday but on a good note I got myself a turntable and already picked up few vinyls to play. It's been three years since I left home, three years of war, I'm still kicking and supporting my parents with my paid off efforts. My biggest wish is to see my mom again in person.
ESL is over and perhaps I share my favourite illustrations I did for the event. Truthfully, I wasn't happy with my results, I wasn't be able to deliver all the work I've promised, messed up deadlines and forgot things until the last minute. In the end, I was happy to be the part of it (1/2) #dota2
Oh yeah I also stayed up late to watch game awards that this pretty much sums up my duality of opinions
Friends keep sending me the venue and mousepad art I did for ESL Bankok, it makes me so happy and so relieved people like it because I've been fighting my anxiety the whole time I've been drawing these haha
Not the typical type of a post I'd make, but being on bsky has been quite refreshing and liberating. Anyways, recently been dealing with people who are just deaf or blind, or idk. It's hard to be me when I constantly have to fight to feel valid.
