Long time no see on here! Also, rare humanoid! Saw someone on twitter draw a pokemon trainer based on a scizor, so I got inspired to draw a trainer design based on altaria! ☁️

I do a lot of research and read lots of books from history to mythology to... whatever is even remotely related to the stories and characters I'm working on. Do you research and if yes, I'm interested to hear about your process and what you are reading and what your researching for. Yup I'm a nerd

to me there is no such thing as a spider-man movie that is too long. i would watch a 4 hour cut of brand new day or across the spider-verse happily, especially if there are more scenes of the characters talking to each other and crying.

Yippee!! #CartAugust day 2! There are a few unexplored places in Allita, surprisingly. Even though, the planet has been inhabited for so long and has such advanced tech, Deltois (the real one), Clair De Lune, Roź, Dragon Isle, and a good portion of Méchant/Floris are unexplored or unmapped—

Another digitally drawn, uncolored map of a world called Allita! The important landmarks today are…
𖤓 Roź, an island toward the left middle just beneath Bahari but above the Mer Islands
☆ (Real) Deltois, another small island found toward the middle of the map, just off the coast of Arius and right next to the much larger Deltois (According to History)
𖤓 Méchant, a country north of both Arius and (Real) Deltois
☆ Clair De Lune, an island nation off the coast of Solaria, nearer to the right middle of the map
𖤓 Dragon Isle, a relatively large island to the far right of the map, next to Amhana

Intro: Day 2, Terra incognita
Does your world stretch beyond the margins of the map? Are parts of your world unexplored?
** Don't forget alt text. I know it's hard to know what to include with images that are really info-dense, but do your best.

Around eight million books were destroyed in Kharkiv yesterday. Many Ukrainians are responding by buying books from the affected publishers and from KnyhoLand, the bookstore chain that also used the warehouse. I bought these today.

Since preorders are ready for OUR CRIMSON CAGE, did you know you get discounts if you order all the yuri books in my catalogue? We've got toxic lesbian vampires, lesbian hitmen, and a witch and a bard falling in love, plus stickers and memo pads Check it out: ladz-merch.square.site

#LateNightWrite Marinette/Ladybug believes that she’s incapable of being strong on her own. When forced to think otherwise, she panics and doesn’t make the best decisions immediately, but she comes around Adrien/Cat Noir feels that he is unloved as himself. When he’s finally able to take off his—

#LateNightWrite In The Lady & The Cat, magic is used very subtly at first in an attempt to lure out the main characters, then it becomes destructive and very, very noticeable. One ability, possessed by the villain, can even manipulate the strong emotions of others to make them pawns in his fight—

#LateNightWrite I’ve written and even started an outline for a story in which a young man cons his way into befriending a wealthy girl in order to steal a very valuable bracelet from her, and then he pretends to help her find the culprit. I had fun imagining it, and I hope to go back to it someday

We continue to tell folks that censorship won't stop at "icky porn" and we keep being right. It is going to reach every kind of expression. Do not take this kind of work for granted.
