hello! could you draw a Fezandipiti? please
I don't see why not!
diva bird 💅
Me: I’m struggling to catch up on Inktober. Maybe I should draw something with a simpler design so I can save some time. I do wanna enjoy Halloween after all.
Me, an hour later: I WANNA DRAW THIS DUDE
so yeah expect something Metroid related today. And maybe some spooks too. Sleep is for the weak, anyway. =P
The awesome shitlords from Super Best Friends Play as shotas kids.
My little zaibatsu can’t possibly be this cute.

well hey, since hardly anyone's looking at this corner of the website anyway I might as well take the opportunity to vent (it's annoying to do it on twitter with the character cap)
Man, social media is hard.
I see so many people posting regular content consistently for years and years without even seemingly breaking a sweat, while it's always been so difficult for me... Calculating engagement, deciding the best times to post, or, hell, even just sharing what they think/feel/made/fucking ate that day just seems, like, so easy and second nature for pretty much everyone around me. It's genuinely incredible to me that somebody can share what they've learned about idk shitty impractical tanks made in WW1 on this website and make it such an interesting read that hundreds of people engage with it!
But I've tried keeping social media accounts for art and stuff so many times now, on here, on Instagram, on Artstation, on Xitter, and eventually it just- kinda- fades away, it just feels so exhausting to keep track of all the things necessary to Chase the Algorhythm™ if you wanna have any relevancy. Is it a charisma thing??? Where do I grind to get a stat boost on my Cha???
I'd love to say it doesn't matter to me, since I've been drawing shit for myself for years now, but unfortunately artists do need social media presence if they wanna get work. Not to mention, well, I wanna reach people with the stuff I do! I want people to react to what I made, to say what they liked about it, or how it made them feel, and then when I post something I worked on for hours only to get, like, almost zero visibility? idk, man, it just kinda hurts. It's probably selfish and immature for me to say it, I know that it takes time and effort to build an audience and all that, but damn I get happy when people show me that something I've made has affected them positively. I like the connection, I like the conversations, I like meeting people who enjoy the same nerdy trash that I do!
(I was very fortunate to have an art post of mine reach a lot of notes here years ago, which was amazing, but it's such a rare thing)
God, and, like, there's all these weird unspoken rules about interacting on social media too.
The other day a friend of mine came up to our friend group and was like "oh my god this girl liked my stories on instagram it means something does she like me" and I was SO confused and then they were like "well, when somebody not on your friends list likes your stories, it means they're interested in you"
Then some time later another friend was telling me that somebody stopped liking her posts and unfriended her and how that is a horrible offense and my fucking brain hurt, like- okay I get the unfriend part kinda but there could be a hundred reasons for it??? it's not like you have a deep personal connection to all 300 friends you have on your account???
Then I see so many people out there simply sharing something they think or did only to have some rando twist what they said and come at them like they're the shittiest person on the planet that deserves everything bad in life actually (except the ones that are willingly spouting/promoting hateful shit to begin with. Those can rot in hell and I shall not mourn their demise)
Like??? It might be the Power of Autism™ in me but it always feels like I'm one step away from either making a fool of myself or offending twenty different people or both. It's both the fear of having hundreds of thousands of eyes on me and the fear of having none at all. And that makes it really difficult to share anything on the internet for me. I already have to deal with my entire existence as a trans woman making some cunts around the world mad, it sucks that I have to risk it in places where I just wanna post dumb drawings and talk about dumb things that make me happy with others.
I dunno. Word vomit I guess. Social media is hard. Interacting with humans is hard. Sharing stuff is hard. I prefer Pokémon
okay this is the last babypost I promise
Drew these for days 8 and 9 of Inktober, but instead of spamming them one by one here I decided to post them all in one go. If you wanna see every THE BABY what-ifs I’ve done in one picture, check my DA here~
I'd imagine that parts of Fusion would be a little easier if you had an Omega Metroid on your side. =P
"but Metroids can only evolve in their home pla--" SHUT UP.
that one iconic moment in dragon ball but instead it's how i defeated the damn bombirdier titan on my mono-fighting run in pokemon scarlet
thunder punch saving our butts 🙏
(don't worry the bird just fainted it got better later)
Drawing a tarot set of Ghost type Pokémon! More in the next few days <3
Wanted to revisit some old characters. And by old I mean characters I created whan I was 12 and edgy
update: i showed this to my therapist and she almost cried
being trans is lovely 🥰
new cringe idea: draw yourself growing up alongside your favorite pokemon
Flygon 💚💚💚💚💚💚
hey I've decided to revive this place after like five years. I was missing a place to dump my doodles and maybe some writing (honestly it's mostly so I stop spamming my friends on discord with doodles of shit they don't care about lol)
new and improved blog design as well~
also i'm trans btw, i'm a girl now ayy
always been pretty terrible at maintaining art social media, let's see if this one sticks this time!
EVERYONE IS PIKACHU
Back in January I saw the cutest compilation of Pikachu imitating other pokémon, so that inspired me to draw him imitating all the original Smash Bros 64 characters in their Ultimate poses. Seems like Kirby’s got a new cosplay rival~
....How IS he able to squash and stretch so hard in order to mimic all those pokémon anyway?
Vivi - 25 - she/her - 🏳️⚧️🇧🇷 - trans artist and sometimes animator. Love bugs but I'm also terrified of them. Drawing sapphic content gives me life. Currently hyperfixating on Pokémon bs right now~
