I am baking some espresso devil's food cupcakes today and I was wondering if baking is allowed? Like can I post a picture of my finished cupcakes for today?
If not I will stick with my regular entries and draw something
yes of course it is allowed! I do bake sometimes as well and post it ^^

Day # 015/100 Theme: Medium: Washi Tape Time spent:1 hour 10mins
Comments: I like the idea, but the one I saw had far more specific washi tapes (there's transparent ones now? guess its not technically washi due to not being paper)

This is soooo adorable! The cut out vines are especially neat
I have to know, though, did you follow through and send your brother the fighting pokemon that he needed for his pokedex? XD

Just want to say that I've also been liking all these ink and alcohol markers you've been making! And I can't wait to see how the one with watercolor / acrylics will turn out @ .@

Love this study. <3 You captured the ostriches so well XD

I selfishly enjoy that you always draw your characters for this event. Your people are so cute and I like the surprise of seeing what new outfits they'll be in or what snarky thing they say next XD
Comments: probably started (or ended?) a little too high concept with this one, initially wanted to do a pose with a heart in one hand and...something...representing reason or logic in the other one
buttttt i ran out of time again so i just kind of did all of whatever this is :'x
in coming back to this thread i think that's the opposite of high concept, i meant literal. literal is what i meant lmfao
Okay. Lol. I only just noticed that you've got the same post format as me. Hahahaahaha. I think someone used my thread as a template and didn't realize that I edited my first post. <.< >.> Well, it definitely looks better on your art than it does mine! XD And works out cuz it was a temp placeholder that I keep telling myself that I'm gonna change. ... I just need to explain this so that it doesn't look like I'm changing it because of this. > < It was always temporary. But damn, looks good with your art
Anyway! It's ironic that I quoted the least-colored drawing to say this but... I swear I remember you saying before that you felt like coloring was your weakness and you had to work on it. So I just want to say... it's been soooo cool to see how gorgeously you've been coloring all your art. x3 ... And if I'm remembering incorrectly, it still stands that it's all been colored so well. This sketchy style you did for this one is so good. I really like how you varied the line weight in all the shadows
btw, I also edited the default image size smaller in the post format than the standard one. > < Lemme know if you'd like anything changed about the code. (Like, I can add in the "larger picture" stuff you always add)

Yeah I did, him looming over my shoulder pick that specific one - I think it was the hitmonlee/hitmonchan choice? You could only have one as a reward for beating the gym & the other would never show up in game again! So only way to complete the pokedex was have someone trade it to you - you had to use a wire to connect both gameboys together iirc.
.... Okay, I swear some of my items are missing. There are items on closet avis that are no longer in my inventory. And I rarely sell things. But I've chalked it up as... maybe I accidentally did or traded it off to a mule .... But now I know for sure items are missing. My G Shades are missing And I wouldn't have traded/sold those so wtf, Gaia. wtf. (I don't have any weird hacked trade/gift history. And who would steal G Shades? XDD )

Well then! You deserved Mario 2 for being a good sibling! XD Did you ever eventually get it?
lol @ him looming I remember that game choice. I lucked out. My bro and I had opposite game versions. And I purposely picked the options he didn't pick. We had no intentions of trading... just that we technically had a complete ish pokedex between the two of us Well He decided he wanted to restart and didn't care about keeping any of his pokemon So I begged him to wait while I took his game-exclusive pokemon (And Hitmonlee, etc)
He technically did that a few times. XD; I never reset my game and I'd trade his pokemon to myself first. I was able to complete my pokedex, eventually, since he kept restarting

thank you :'3 I have made so many characters. I've been writing stories and comics since I was 9-10 years old(25+ years) so I have a lot, and have had a lot of time to flesh them out sweatdrop so it's nice to have such a large bank/pile to choose from
