What makes me happy is apparently writing a Stardew Valley fanfiction that's dangerously close to breaking 300k words but I am having the time of my LIFE working on it. I don't know if I've ever been so obsessed with a project before, which, considering my past projects, is KIND OF INSANE....

MAKE! MORE! SELF-INDULGENT ART!! Who CARES if you're ""cringe"", who CARES if it's ""embarrassing"", LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE. BE FREE. HAVE FUN. DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY!!!

2026 really feels like the year everyone's taking the plunge into that self-indulgent project they've been waiting for the right time to start and I think thats beautiful

It took me two or so hours to draw these and they last for an entire two seconds in the animatic so like. Clearly there's something wrong with me.

Why do I insist on drawing profiles and kissing. Do I just hate myself that much. What is wrong with me. I just want to see them HAPPY THAT'S ALL I WANT—

ALSO I KNOW IT LOOKS BLAND THIS IS A MASSIVE WIP I'LL ADD EFFECTS AND LIGHTING AND SHIT LATER IT'LL LOOK BETTER I PROMISE I SWEAR—

I don't know why arm up poses are so hard for me, I even had references this time and I'm still not content with how this turned out but it's FINE, it's F I N E. The lip sync is good and so is Riley's hand so I'm taking the little victories LMAO.

"And I really want you to know, you're everything I need."

Not all that happy with these but they're DONE, it's SOMETHING, I've been at this for WAY TOO LONG and I need a fucking BREAK.

'I wanna go wherever you go.'

Today's animatic progress. That last frame took fucking FOREVER and I wish so desperately I was good at art LMAO.

Progress on the animatic today wahoo!! Threw these in vegas and got the animation process started, I Desperately needed Shane and Riley being cute because the suffering in my fic is a Lot sometimes LMAO.
(riley uses they/them pronouns thanks)

Concept frame for my next Shane/Riley animatic! Wanted to use a restricted palette that resonated with me and I'm making myself SUFFER by drawing backgrounds but. The vision......
Not 100% sure how I feel about this, gotta let it sit and marinate for a while.

Suuuuper fast Kiki because I have her on the brain... I've barely drawn in like a week don't mind the sloppiness LMAO.

Earthbound playthrough is going very slow because my lizard brain can't stop doing this everywhere

abuse tw //

Quick fifteen minute sketch. To cope. I need to bully my OCs to make myself feel better.

Holy shit this scenario is my worst nightmare irt sharing art and OCs, I cannot believe someone is doing this to you??? That's fucking INSANE?????

I thought about that too like there seems to be So much customization in the island and that made me nervous because like. I did kinda enjoy ACNH but I'm not one for like. Aesthetics like that. I want to slap the miis together and make them do stupid shit. I don't want a "pretty island" :(

For today's Dry Shanuary prompt, 'family'! My fanfic finally has an ending solidified and it's turning into a fucking tragedy so working on this genuinely broke my entire heart, like I am causing myself so much pain LMAOOOO.

“I guess I've grown attached to Marnie and Jas. We're a ragtag bunch but it kind of feels like a weird family. I never really had much of a family as a kid.”

this is an approximation but if anyone has the original or know who made it i'd be happy to have it

GO TO TUMBLR. LOOK FOR @SHELLSSTARDEW. READ THEIR COMIC 'SHELLS'. I AM NOT ASKING 🔪🔪

"'Maybe' it is."

MORE 👏 ANGST 👏 !!
I've been retooling a lot of my stupid fic and working on the Riley Depression Arc. I don't think I care for this very much?? But it was the first time I'd drawn in like, close to a week, so I'm just glad I got Something done. Shrug.

“Y’d get over it…”

“No, Ry, I wouldn’t,” It comes out insistent, desperate, he’s moments away from crumbling to pieces and begging them to take it back. “I can’t… I can’t lose you. Fuck, I can’t lose you, I’d have nothing left if you… If…”

He can’t say it.

I technically have Kiki designs before that first old one, I just picked the first solid design I had for her as she was transitioning from a 'sona into an OC. Here's some more super old 'sona art, all from 2009-2010. Yes these are all supposed to be the same character LMAOO.

2010 - 2025
Kiki was my 'sona for a while (I used to go by Kiki in the late 2000s and early 2010s) so I think this counts. I really loved a photoshop splatter brush and pretentious typography back in the day LMAO.

some bits of wisdom from tunglr

It shouldn't be "up to me to defend myself", it should be the responsibility of the fucking ADULT to not be interested in a FUCKIN KID DUDE AUGH.
