So, I was talking some good shit about art styles I've gotten used to, & my bf used that to call my mans milquetoast!! He was right, but like OMG!!!! (it was karma 😂)

Anyways, I HAD to scrungle 📚Renato up a bit bc he's been Too Pretty for Too Long 😂😜💛

Text by position -- Top L corner (headband & stubble): in bubble, "WHY is this fishing mini-game GENUINELY difficult (holy shit)"; no bubble "(I thought this game was for children)" Top R corner (clean shaven, making a scathing face): "Wow. Praise be. Glory be." Middle L (purple shirt, head in hand): "oh my fucking god..." Middle R (half-ponytail, eye bags, stubble): "What if... instead of writing...... I just die 🙃" Odd small center one (yellow shirt, one side of hair pinned): someone out of frame saying "oh, mans is BLAZED" about him Bottom L & R together (sequence): Left: "I am not a craftsman who enjoys ruminating on past successes; it distracts from my cr--" Right: *clatters down the stairs* "sigh... craft."

🎉💛 Happy Hispanic Heritage Month!! 💛🎉

Did you know the Puerto Rican flag was banned in the US (including on the island) for 54 years? Bad Bunny refers to it in "LA MuDANZA" (translated in alt text)

🎉🇵🇷 Celebrating my Puerto Ricans, 🎲Ace & ⚡Serena 🇵🇷🎉
Traditional pen/marker ink drawing of my OCs, Ace Ortega (L, holding drum) & Serena Valentín (R, holding skirt), wearing traditional Puerto Rican clothing. Lyrics as written: "Aquí mataron gente por sacar la bandera Por eso es que ahora yo la llevo donde quiera Cabrón, ¿qué fue?" Lyrics translation: "Here, they killed people for flying the flag Which is why now I bring it [with me] wherever Cabrón*, what's up?" * Cabrón is a somewhat vulgar term that can be used to address a very close/familiar friend or to rudely address a stranger, similar to "bitch"/"bastard"/"asshole" though not exactly

Sticky note correction bc 🎲 Ace's face pissed me off & the rest of the art was too good to scrap 😂

Christening my new multimedia sketchbook with 📚Renato, 🎲 Ace, &⚡Rini!! 💛

Unfortunately, Rini's skin is too dark (important design-wise bc her lighter skin tone causes some of her character's insecurities) 😭😭😭

Anyways, ignore it & pretend it's all good 😅🎉

Big news: Canon appearances for 🍬 Sebastian's brothers, 🍉 Oliver & 🍸 Indigo 🎉💛🎉 They're triplets 😘 (a little more info in alt text)

Less big news: LOOK AT 📚 REN!! 💛😍💛😍💛 I MIGHT redo this one digitally for ArtFight 🤔 (I made his hair too dark, but sshhhh LOL)
Pen/ink busts of my OCs, Oliver (L, green) & Indigo (R, blue) Tadeo, brothers of Sebastian Tadeo. Oliver is an artist & is mostly non-verbal, preferring to communicate with sign, drawings, & a ring of common stock questions/responses on index cards to show to people. They have a lot of touch & sound sensitivity -- thus wears loose-fitting clothes & often wearing noise-cancelling headphones --, but their sense of smell is practically dead. Indigo is a high-ranking military officer (& because he is meant to be buddy-buddy with Clare, the Secretary of Defense & the worst white woman I could possibly think of, it's probably gonna be a general, but I Don't Want To Think About That LMAO) & is mostly physically fine, but the parts of his brain for emotional regulation & judgment are a little fucky wucky, so he's kind of The Worst™ also (sweat laugh emoji). He's a rude, unfair edgelord, but he isn't even all that sensitive or have THAT fragile of an ego lol. Actually incredibly loyal, & his one redeeming quality is that he cares about his brothers above all else... That doesn't save them from getting bullied by him though LOL Pen/ink drawing of my OC, Renato Martinez, sitting with his legs crossed & holding his transformed Conduit.
