What's a cosmic reality-bending dragon do to relax and unwind? Some planetary gaming, of course!

A nice planet and moon to lounge on, some UFO Starbit Soda, a rift portal for my monitor, and a kingly-sized controller.

Welcome to my Nebula!

Song of the year dropped five days ago and I almost missed it. (This dude's whole channel rocks. Check it out for banger after banger.) 🎡 www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_mm...

Wasnt interested in highguard but im not celebrating its cancellation.

Its fuckin weird how negative some of yall are.
You shouldn't want anything that isn't fortnite or marvel to fail, a variety of different games is good. being happy a studio closes makes you sound like anti woke chuds

There's a Microcenter bundle that I would grab but we still need to get our car inspected and new tags, and taxes are coming up that will probably absolutely destroy me, so I must resist for at least a month or so. Just need to work harder in the mean time...!

Learning and realizing my CPU is going on 10 years old as I install a new graphics card (thank you falindrith ;u;), staring at bundle deals and wondering how I can manage to get one before things get even worse so I can coast for another ten years. Hmm...

T-Rex: We divide up the oceans into different oceans, but c'mon - it's all the same ocean!

T-Rex: *GASP*
T-Rex: Wait, this applies to everything!

T-Rex: We divide up the planet into different countries, but it's all the same planet! And we divide us all up into these groups, but WE'RE ALL THE SAME SPECIES!
Dromiceiomimus: I'm not.
T-Rex: Okay, fine, we're all the same CLADE! A clade, of course, being a monophyletic group of organisms sharing the same common ancestor.
Dromiceiomimus: Of course!

Utahraptor: But pterosaurs aren't dinosaurs, so they're not part of the same clade as us.
T-Rex: EUGH!

T-Rex: Utahraptor, I am TRYING to achieve some sort of ENLIGHTENMENT here, and instead I'm being bogged down in CLADE DEFINITIONS. How about this: we're all LIFE, so we're all in this together. Ruin that!!
Utahraptor: This would be much more compelling if I didn't have to devour other forms of life to maintain my own.

Garrett's unsure if he woke up to the first day of Macro March a LOT bigger or if he's still dreaming. Either way the big bat is enjoying the view!

A sketch for @drewbermeister.bsky.social ! Noticing a trend where anger leads to muscle growth. More studies and samples needed...

A sketch for @dragonmystic.bsky.social of his guy, Zreck! In fairness, I did ask for an up-close inspection...

Another from when we needed some extra funds for plumbing bill. Thank you, Myst! ;u;

Digital sketch of a blue and white fox anthro character snarling angrily, the rest of the frame filled with neck and chest muscles as he grows in strength.

A sketch for @blufo.gs I took in a rush a while back to help with some plumbing bills. Anger unchecked, Fogs tends to go a little bit over the top. (Note to self, ask him to do this more often.)

A silver dragonborn stands on the beach at the waterside, hands raised up behind his head as he flexes his body, showing off every muscle from his arms to his legs, wearing only a pair of swim trunks. Water cascades at his feet, as the sun sets in the distance behind him.

YCH paintings for @tonystfns.bsky.social of Ferrhis, and @professoranon.bsky.social of Vincent!

Big thank you to you both for wanting to take on a slot for the YCH I was planning on scrapping. ;u; It helped immensely. πŸ’š

Happy birthday! Hope you get a chance to rest, relax, and enjoy the day, or better yet the whole weekend. Hope there's at least one cake to enjoy yourself, and that a certain spider didn't eat -all- of them~ πŸ’šπŸ»

A couple of coloured sketches of Psyduck (one of my favourite PokΓ©mon!). In the upper right sketch he’s looking slightly confused while crawling his tilted head. The second sketch sees Psyduck waddling along merrily, a smile on his beak!

Our little PokΓ©mon buddies are 30 years old!

Been slowly working my way through drawing select PokΓ©mon (mostly) in order over the last couple of years. Here’s some of my favourites.

(Don't actually answer that; I know the answer is "more money because gamble". I know a storefront would still feel a bit gross, but at least it wouldn't prey on people so strongly. :<)

Never understood why people point blame at Overwatch when it feels like it started with Team Fortress 2. Because "haha hat simulator" meme is cute?

Assuming you mean the New York suit. Loot boxes were a small part that killed my interest in pursuing art for games. What was wrong with a storefront?

WIP of a painting of a yellow/gold dragon furry. He is staring at a glowing portal, concentrating on something within it, holding a game controller in his hands. A small UFO floats next to him, balancing a soda on its roof.
