Yes, I am very much into this flat color style with my line art... And trying to lean into more graphic/illustrative bold color styles... Lylix actually being forward for once with Reiwin from the Fabula Ultima game I run. #heyknillyart #ocart #ocsky #illustration

More Adhika based on a clip from Audrey Nuna's new song (which I did add to Adhi's playlist by the way) and her outfit in that video. Tried out a new digital "underpainting" technique... (: #heyknillyart #illustration #ocsky #oc #orbitalblues

Pass it along - please let us see your pfp in its full glory! Crop of one "pin-up" sketch I did of Sisa a while ago (that I never shared the full thing here [yet]). I really like the yellow bg and her face. (: I'm pretty bad at faces in side-profile, so pretty proud of this

please clap and wish me luck I've applied to like 10 spots right now, just blasting out my resume, and I've got contacts at a few of those, so here's hoping more bites...

I was laid off earlier in the summer, and after taking some time off, I'm workin' on trying to line something up for next year. bsky.app/profile/hey....

Hello friends, I was officially laid off today. If anyone is looking for a [Principal/Staff] Web Software Engineer of 15+ years, I'm yer nerd. I also have the niche knowledge area of ad tech, if that's something you're looking for. I also do UI/UX design, proficient in graphic design.

In the meanwhile, you can support me by sharing around my commissions or commissioning me yourself - bsky.app/profile/hey....

Gemma again, but in her full "werewolf" form. Based on a version of the Filipino sigbin (and perhaps other aswang) to resemble something akin to the Jersey Devil cryptid. #heyknillyart #ocart #oc #illustration

My Fabula Ultima groups I'm running simultaneously and in parallel stories are (conveniently) both on big boss fights this week of similar circumstsncds, and one group just got through part 1 this week, other tonight. The two parties have castle different party comps so this should be interesting.

Reporting back, Sat's party made it thru, but not after one Surrender and some damage control. Both are now just at Crisis phase, ready to either perform a Ritual to quell/re-trap/I dunno a god or defeat them...

*vastly not castle

1 group is mostly magic casters with one Tank. They have 2 NPCs - an off-tank & a under-leveled healer (for reasons). 2 - DPS (a thicc tanky DPS, a speedy DPS, and a magic DPS), & one off-healer/mit. They have 3 NPCs, one might be occupied (healer), one aggro off-tank, & damage support...

I told them the gloves are off. I don't usually aim to get parties to Surrender, but they are facing raging gods that have been trapped and seek to unleash their wrath onto humanity once out. So. You know.

Part of me wants to finally dip my toes in VA. (but I also know there's a few of ya out there) Take a look who's at the left. ;)
