Nope, one had suicidal ideation because of being harassed by people, the other because of an abusive relationship.

When I was 11 my dad allowed me to drive. It was a quiet road down a forested mountain at night, and I learned two things:

My dad trusted me enough to drive down this mountain road at night, and driving a car is surprisingly easy

I talked two people out of suicide. I guess you could call that manipulative, but in a good way.

Chonkus sounds like the name of a videogame boss.

You beat the “chonky” cyanobacteria. You think you’re safe and you’re going to use all that EXP on upgrading your armor, then suddenly you’re greeted to a gigantic health bar which takes up the entire width of the screen, with the name “CHONKUS” above it.

Sharks are amazing. They’re also older than trees!

Very pretty! Gotta love that time of day where the sky is a deep blue and there’s a nice little gradient where it turns yellow/pinkish!

Not to mention there are many natural sources of fluoride which can contain greater concentrations of it than what is in tap water. The ocean has a concentration of fluoride that is in the range of 1.2 to 1.4 ppm, compared to the standard rate of fluoride of drinking water, which is 0.5–1 ppm

Oh I know about Paint Tool SAI 2, the version I’m using is 1.1.0 of SAI 1, which is pretty ancient haha.

He did an amazing job. You can tell he had a great time detailing the scales and the wings! It makes it look so much more lifelike. Love it when artists use textures like this!

Thank you so much!! I’m glad you like it!

Hehe thanks!

Haha thanks, I really enjoy drawing teeth for some reason!

Digital, I use Paint Tool SAI and to get a soft/smooth look I paint lighter and lighter shades and then use the blur tool for colour blending! You can see a quick example of this here!

Thanks! I love this comment because I really like how old PC games looked, and I was aiming to make this one have that kind of look!

Thank you so much!! And I am! I’m on Tumblr and also Bluesky!

Aw thank you so much!! I love drawing in a soft coloured lineless style so I’m glad you like what you see! 😃

I have so many sketches in my sketches folder, so there’s still a lot more to come!

Thank you!! 😃

For drawing, definitely Paint Tool SAI! When I began drawing digitally, a friend gifted me two programs for me to use, Illustrator and Paint Tool SAI. I ended up settling on the latter. It is a very old program that got released in 2008, but it is lightweight, fast, stable, and has really good blending and pen stabilization options!

Illicit substances can make people act irrationally, and many drug addicts were pressured into an addiction starting from a young age, when they were more impressionable. Peer pressure is terrible and can negatively affect a person in a variety of different ways. The problem with an addiction is that once your body becomes accustomed to the substance, it can be very difficult to stop because of psychological and physiological symptoms pertaining to withdrawal.

Over time, they require higher and higher doses and unfortunately many of them do end up inadvertently overdosing. I have compassion for these people because they are the victims of peer pressure, abuse, stress, and addiction. It is a tragedy. I think that a lot more could be done to help them.

I draw angels mostly, but I do draw fanart from time to time as well! I’ve uploaded progress pictures, timelapses, and files associated with my work, too!
