A Tree...

 Just a little something I did for fun in my crappy experimental sketchbook. It's a tree with two volcanoes in the background. Done in water-based markers with a few metallic ones added to the mix.

Hero's Heart Day 2021 was...

 ...heartbreaking. It was just too cruel. There was this quest. Aspenvale Academy. The style of the quest was more along the lines of a dating sim game, but with DF characters instead. And it had Tomix in it. So when they said to pick someone to focus on and go on a QuestVenture with, of course, I zeroed in on Tomix. So I'm picking all the options that would raise the relationship with him. And then it starts glitching. In a pre-programmed way. So, I start getting curious. And then the first part ends. So I have to wait a week for the second one. And I played that... Yesterday. Yes, it was yesterday. So I read through it till the end. And when they tell me to pick a partner, I pick Tomix. And what do I get instead of anything else? I get a scene of the Hero visiting Tomix's grave. Because Tomix is dead. 

And yet, his soul is still missing. So where the hell is he? I'm still believing the theory that he occupies the body of his brother who lost his soul. At this point, the theory is unlikely, but hey, I'm not giving up on it. I have to believe it. Tomix is the best character out of all of them! 

So yeah, this year's Hero's Heart Day was heartbreaking. At least for me. What they did to Tomix was not cool and I'm still not over it. And I don't plan on getting over it. Not unless they bring him back. I know I wrote a ranting post about his death almost right after I finished the Void ship saga. For the record, I no longer ship Tomix and Warlic in the romantic sense of the word. But I do enjoy fluff between those two. Gimme fluff. I'm probably gonna have to go and re-read the one sole fic that has some serious fluff between Warlic and Tomix that exists. Seriously, DF is such a well of possible fanfiction ideas, and yet... There's not that much unless you count all the stories with a female Hero paired with one of the NPCs. And that is not something I like. 

Really! It's not fair! It's always my favorite character that has to bite the dust! I hate this! What am I doing wrong? Am I picking the wrong favorites? At least The Untamed had a happy ending. Even if they didn't kiss... (In the drama).

Done. I'm done. I just needed to scream a little about this. 

See you later.

At The Edge Of A Cliff

 

Done in brush markers. Mainly black, but also gray and white. The lightest areas were shaded over with a pencil. It was darkened after I took a photo of it because the photo looked too light compared to the actual pic.

Two Portraits

 Done in charcoal pencils I bought and needed to test. Not the best picture, but they perform pretty well. And for a quick test pic, it's not too bad. 

Little bugger

 FYI: I'm done with lengthy captions for my photos and drawings. Also, this is my baka of a cat. She simply doesn't understand that she has no business being in my bed. And upside down to boot! 

Enjoy.
