*emerges from beneath several pages of conjugation tables* holaaaa 😅 it's been a while since I had time to post things, huh! time for a life update? I've been learning Spanish at the University of Buenos Aires, and I recently passed my A2 exams! 🙌🎉 I'm chuffed to bits 😁

People ask how I do illustrations at very small pixelart resolutions. The trick is practice, and the exercise to practice is this: 1. draw your character 2. halve the resolution (now you can't fit all the details; pick what to keep), 3. halve again to 1/4. After that, 1/2 res feels roomy.

been thinking a bit about people doing all sorts of upscaling on old games with prerendered backgrounds and it hit me that it would be kinda fun to use the extra resolution to make them look worse in interesting ways instead, like trying to make the it look like a scanned 90s game mag screenshot

If you leave nice comments on art and writing, you are a big part of why we get to continue seeing more art and writing. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to make the community continue flourishing. You, the audience, matter just as much as the creators do.

The tags on this Tumblr post really sum up how I feel as a writer about the current state of fandom, and my increasing lack of motivation to write & share fics

I took part in a coastal clean up at the reserve yesterday 🥰 we filled 4 of those massive city recycling bags with trash! 3 of which can be recycled! 🙌 I'm certainly feeling the aches today after helping to haul those back through the nature reserve to the entrance 😱 #BeachClean
