Who needs pillows when you have friends?

I miss camping ngl. Especially those big summer camps where everything was planned out for you. The chaos that can be caused while fitting inside a schedule is amazing tbh.

Mmm don’t ask how many layers this is. You’ll only be disappointed.

Also this continues my “shove ashigos everywhere they shouldn’t be” initiative.

Another redraw! This is how I keep track of all of my ashigos because looking for this one drawing to see how many I have is easier than looking for all of their individual references sheets.

“I’m gonna make a simple icon. No background or anything” and then it gets complicated. Every. Single. Time. You’d think I’d learn but nope! Never do.

Anyway speedpaint below.

Another ashigo redraw! (Redrawn on left original on right) I’m not really happy with how it turned out but I’m not unhappy either. Maybe in another 5 years I’ll redraw it again and be happier/hj.

If I had to gues why it would probably be that the river isn’t bending enough and it’s too straight and doesn’t quite line up with the rest of the perspective.

(Redrawn on the left. old on the right)

Another draw! This is one of my favorite old pieces of art hard to believe I did it back in 2020. But it’s one of the things that’s held up very well from that time. It just needed a little facelift.

But I was redoing the character and thought I’d redo the old art while I was at it. So this is coconut! He’s from an open species called ashigos!

An art dump! This is just some old art I really like and thought I’d dump here

Happy pride month! Now I’m gonna go collapse into a puddle. As one does.

Feel free to watch my suffering in the speedpaint. It’s funny when hours of individually placed lines to make a gradient are sped up to like a minute.
