Here's the most recent doodle pack finished from the end of last year. Some of these have been posted on social media but here they are in one place for archival and easy access.

Starting with the personal and somewhat emotional stuff, we have one that was inspired by a video that lived in my head rent free for weeks after it was posted and crossed my path. I had to draw myself as that tiny little puppy, cause I felt it.

The other piece was inspired by a predictably difficult time I was having in the midst of a good one, which was equally frustrating as it was upsetting to deal with.

Next we have a couple of pieces of game fanart which are strangely both horror focused and yet the resulting art ended up being completely tonally different. On the left, we have Blocks for Babies, a tetris FPS (you'll see); and on the right, an idle nightmare 2: SABBATH, a clicker game (trust me, it's good).

I will mention that the fanart of IN2 isn't based on any specific scenes from the game, but just something I imagined could have happened in the game.

Next, we have assorted stream gifts and raffle prizes, going in order;

FaerieAlex, Fiona, ShadeTavish, BlazingPelt, James, TrixterCat, and Plushie; Melody, Halley (ft. Arwyn), Dal and Pockets; Trixter's displacer beast; and another bonus Fiona.

Another batch of scribbles; some silly, some sentimental.

Myself, feeling pleased from the praise I was getting; TipTap and Arwyn, during a rather bratty exchange; Me comforting Millie (aka Malachyte) during a heart-to-heart we shared; and a redraw of a classic meme with me in it instead.

And last, but not least, some assorted but more detailed giftart for friends.

Arwyn, being her usual mischievous self; a rendition of a plushie that belongs to my friend Valk; and a drawover with me and Melody using an Animal Crossing screenshot she'd taken for a project of her own.

So I do this thing where I keep one big file for my quick and simple, cheap and cheery doodles and sketches that might not warrant their own entire project file. Every now and again I refresh the file with a new copy, and post all the pictures at once for your enjoyment.

I took my time with this latest one, but since the file reached 450MB and was literally slowing down Clip Studio I figured it was high time I made the batch post and start afresh. Here they are in no particular order, just grouped in a way that made the most sense to me.

Here's a handful of one-off drawings I made for Plush, Feef, and James. The first two were warmups, while the other was inspired by James being his usual self - as depicted - during one of my Discord hangouts. What started out as a bit of a silly joke actually led to me digging up some preg art I'd done that I honestly still really like and am genuinely proud of.

Can you name those tummies?

Last weekend I stumbled upon this adorable tweet while I was having an especially bad day, and decided I'd make some silly vent art to get it out of my system. It turned out cute enough, but as a point of advice in future; don't make self deprecating jokes when you're already feeling bad. People might just agree with you.

Fortunately the art didn't go to waste, as I was later inspired by a silly TikTok that my friend Melody shared with me. I reprised the little doodle in a different context, and I think I like it a lot better that way.

I still think that I'm a little bit stupid, though.

Next we have some assorted silliness and/or one-offs I made for myself or in the context of other conversations.

First we have a transparent template of myself being shown something worrying, taken from my Easter comic;

A redo of an old display pic I'd been using for nigh on 20 years, as part of my broader transition process;

An illustration for my friend Shivers' silly tweet asking how C++ would wear pants if it could;

And a cutesy, perfectly innocent little Soul Choco and the post that it was inspired by.

Games! I like them. I made some fanart and self-insert designs based on the adorable game Vividlope, and a little drawover using the demo of the upcoming castle building toy Tiny Glade. I'm especially pleased with how cutesy Ruby turned out in Vividlope's style.

I'd been meaning to do some drawover art using one of these building toys, but I was always reluctant cause it feels like my default style doesn't fit well within the rendered spaces. I think it looks alright, but it could've been better somehow.

Next, lots of Melody bunnies.

The first is based on a conversation between her and Robin, where she threatened to drink the Coconut Nair soap and Monster she'd shown off to us. It's genuinely one of the most unassumingly conflicting thing I've drawn, cause every time I look at it I love how adorable they both look... But that little bunny is soon bound for the emergency ward.

We also have some cutesy doodles of the bun in less compromising positions.

Here's a couple of sketches I made for my friend Cashmere, who I got to know recently.

A hug to comfort them after a moment of worry, and some fanart of the little tinsel plushie red panda they've been taking on a trip with them, named after the nickname that I coined for them.

And as a treat for looking through this whole post, a bonus Ruby pleasuring herself.

Following my design of Dark Chocolate, I got to thinking (read: daydreaming) about going the complete opposite direction with Ruby, seeing as she originally happened a result of me wanting to indulge my submissive side.

Making her into a lamb seemed like the only logical choice; just as fluffy and soft, but somehow even meeker (might I say... Sheepish?), submissive and suggestible than her usual self. This form's idea was mainly intended as a companion (and you'll find a lot of commonalities in their designs) to Katie's sheep form, but I have many plans for this vulnerable little thing.

Here's the design page, and finalized look of Lamby Ruby. I love the soft little woolbaby.

I then made this featuring my friend Robin, cause she gave me the idea and I tricked her into encouraging me to do it.

Here's an assortment of art recently inspired by a variety of events I've enjoyed in my different hangout spots.

My friends Robin and Mishka, who've been active on my Discord server as of late, are really cute and fun and funny too, and I like them very much. Here's a couple of silly drawings they inspired with some similarly silly interactions while hanging out.

This all started with Robin consistently greeting Mishka in such a wistful way ever since she joined, and since I wanted to draw something for both of them anyway, this was perfect for me to tick several boxes all at one go (props to my friend Ihddn for coining "scentpai," it was perfect).

I was hanging out with Robin in voice while working on the above sketch, and she was exceptionally slow on the uptake (sorry sis, but you were) with realizing that I was drawing her as a surprise. At one point I said I was "waiting for the other shoe to drop," anticipating her reaction to the drawing, and when she finally did, she blurted out "Oh, I'm the shoe!"

The way she said it sounded exactly to me like this line from Extinction Party, which then inspired this silly thing the very next day. I love ENA, and drawing myself in that style was such an absolute blast. We couldn't stop laughing about it.

A little while prior, I'd picked up Lethal Company to play with my friends Wolfie, Piter, Mel, and Plushie - the latter pictured in this recreation of an unfortunate but very, very funny and abrupt learning experience that she had while playing together.

Last but by no means least, a couple of cutesy things. One's a doodle of FaerieAlex, my little friend and charge who I often babysit online - looking rather flustered for whatever reason - and my own rendition of the absolutely adorable piece of giftart my friend Robin made me for my birthday.

A fellow artist friend approached me to do a collab a while back and here's where we're at!

I'm fond of how their character looks and I absolutely adore how cute they drew me too. They'll be finishing up their half of the colouring before we call it all done, but I figured it was worth sharing the WIP with you folks in the meantime.

Today is Foreskin appreciation day (4/4) and I decided to make something when inspiration struck - here's the high res version for you lovely supporters. Yasmin certainly appreciates foreskin, not to mention everything else that goes with it. You can touch it if you like!

Threw in some fore-shortening just to add to the mix. Didn't come out perfect but I'm happy with the result.

Thanks for sticking with me during these difficult times, and for your patience with the slow output lately, everyone. Sorry it's not been my most creative period, but I'm doing my best. There'll be more to come real soon.
