Catpone Cerberus

Two new drawings, quality is fine enough for me, there is things like the stones on the background of the dragon one that I don't like at all but can't be bothered to fix.

The character designs I'm mostly happy with, Dax is bit...meh, but you win some you lose some, the two dragons I'm satisfied with.

What I'm not too happy with are the hands and feet (thus you can't see the feet for most  ) it's just something I've been struggling with lately.

Then for the characters themselves, first the kobolds, in short, I got inspiration for Grir and came up with a small group around her, I am aware that there is a pirate-ish feel to them, but that was accidental, I realized it during drawing.

I haven't planned them that far yet, but the basic idea that formed them was an idea of Troublemaker kobolds which evolved to more sinister group.

Then the dragons, they have bit more thought behind them, simply put, there was a set of RPs happening in the same universe/timeline I had with an individual, it ended quite a while ago due to the other player's personal life, but in the ending point, my character Ruby Shine, was expecting offspring, and there was a prophecy about them (part of which is written in the picture). This is simply what I imagined that offspring to look like when I was reminded of it.

In short the important part about the design inspiration, basically, they are a fusion between Ruby Shine and the other player's character, which was an albino nightwing (a species of dragon from Wings of Fire - universe) with a third character being mixed in for the female for reasons that are not relevant.

New drawing I did over a week or so few hours at a time, it's bit more...dark? Edgy? than usual, as it's not a character, and rather a set of moments from the backstories of some of my characters.

Doing this, I have realised that drawing a character's face from directly front of them is surprisingly hard to make decend, when you've only drawn them from the side or 3/4 angle (or whatever it's called)

I have also noticed that with the new equipment (drawing screen) drawing is lot more enjoyable for me, but my quality has also gone down in certain things, not that it really matters, because the only reason I draw is because I feel like it.

I can't say I'm especially happy with this picture in any way, it's not the best nor the worst drawing I've ever done, but I like how Flint's background ended up (the burning house) as I didn't have high hopes for success, yet it ended up the best looking.

And just in case..Warning, while there is no explicit detail, there is silhouettes implying dead creatures, and dark red blob implying small amount of blood, so if you don't want to see it, don't look at it 
 

I got bored one day and did this thing, it's pretty bad but figured I'd share it anyway because why not.

New drawing, new equipment, remake of "character" from 2017, didn't use mouse at all this time for the characters, background and such made with custom brushes from the internet. 

Warning! spooky eyes, in case someone is sensitive for those.

I had a such a weird dream that I gotta share it, the details have gotten bit blurry at this point, but here's what I remember.

I was in a pizzeria, but instead of tables there was school desks, that were pointed towards the counter like in school, and I did something on paper, a test or something, and failed either due to some mistake or because time ran out, and as a reward/punishment, I got this small square pineapple pizza, but before taking it, I was told to fill out a paper, but instead of getting an actual paper, I got this small, very blurry picture of black text on white background, and when I opened it further, I ended up on an article on Finnish news site that had that blurry picture as the picture. 

Drawing.

I think I have gotten bit jaded with Cyberpunk 2077. Due to a bug, I was seriously thinking I had lost all my save games (115 hours), but the only thing I thought about it was "Damn, I hope I remembered to screenshot all the characters.". Granted, I've barely gone past the prologue chapter, in fact, I've done one mission after it  And no, I didn't lose them, like said, it was just a bug with a new thing they added in a update. 

In another topic, I've been lurking the conversation about the forum Ranks, and I realized just how little it matters to me, even though I voted that I'd like to keep them like they were, I don't actually even know what rank I was before the blank flank moment, I've never really paid attention to it  After certain point brohoofs and post number just stopped mattering to me, and now I only pay attention to them when they are a special number. Nowadays just the fact that somebody cares enough to read my status updates or posts is good enough internet validation for me, though I do admit that I miss the time when I had plenty of forum friends and every status got some kind of comment from someone, be it a response or something silly like boop or such. 

 New drawing, and new character again. Mostly happy with the end result, the only thing I don't like is the feet, this was very different pose to what I usually do, and all the references were humans, so I just couldn't get the feet looking right, and this time I didn't want to just cut them off.
 

 Bookmark I made for myself.

And picture of Ruby I drew
 

So I visited Pride-celebration in my city, wanted to see the parade too but was late for that Now I just feel more lonely  While the event was nice and all, and people were happy, I realized what I'm missing in my life and being as socially cowardly as I am, I can't just go talk to strangers. 

anyway, since I mentioned it, happy pride to those who celebrate it.

Youtube is so weird, I often look for new music and my luck finding it is very poor, but then, one day, I tiredly click on a video where some random Vtuber reacts to Markiplier rating pokemon Smash or Pass (don't ask) and fall into a rabbit hole which leads me to an absolute banger. 

Rest in peace Mäykky, we grew together and it was great, you'll always stay in my heart. 

I wish I could have been there to say goodbye.

The payday garand experience.

Warning, video game violence:

How is everyone doing today? Covid has finally caught up to me too, so that's nice Don't worry though, I have the jab and while I am pretty tired, i will survive.  

I'm alive, had quite the week, thus wasn't online, will respond to things during the weekend. For now, I'll leave you all with this 

Youtube suggestions gave me this gem 

It has been a while since I drew anything. 

Cold (temperature, not sickness) really drains one's energy 

Welcome to "Thoughts of the Catpone" 

I sometimes see the question "What would you do with lot of money?" my respond has changed through time, and while I still would do certain selfish things like get myself things, in current day what I would want to do is to get a big house and turn it into cat-sanctuary of sorts, a place where I would gather mistreated, abandoned, etc. cats and give them the best life I would be able to provide them. 

That concludes "Thoughts of the Catpone", have a nice rest of your day. 

I have been reading some of the comics lately, and I like Spike in these.

Random childhood memory that just came to mind: Don't remember if it was in preschool, or in 1st or 2nd year, but in school play about birth of Jesus, I was a background sheep, but the school had only one piece of sheep ears, so I got bunny ears that were rolled in into rolls.  

I also have a vague memory of a play where someone had to be a door because the school had only one prop door and we needed two. 

Is self locking doors really something you people don't have in other countries?

I watched a video of student from other country studying in Finland telling about things that he found weird but useful/nice, and he mentioned the way our doors get locked without you turning a key as something that causes trouble at first for people coming from elsewhere.
