Mouse doodle
I've decided to put some effort into learning how to draw. I am enamored with the idea of painting with light, so I got me a black notebook and white gel pens. This is a doodle I made to try the kit out.

My mom took the source photo. This is one of her favorite trees to photograph, pretty sure I have a dozen photos of it at different times of day and year. I read that a person in a landscape grounds us in the scene. So I added one.

The Chinese of this solar term (小滿) means "little full". It refers to rice crops starting to bear rice.
I record timelapse now!

8/24 Solar Terms
One of these happens to be my name...
Well, not necessarily a pendant, it could definitely work as earrings too, but I only made one.
Made of brass, cut with a saw as usual, and a rivet done with a hammered nail to the horizontal bar movable.
Here the scale (pun intended) shows a bit more: 
These were made on Android using PixaPencil, and Termux (git, imagemagick), plus a little bit of Android krita.
Find them now (and further updates) on https://codeberg.org/iloveena/pink-kube
Use them on matrix by joining this room #the-sticker-box:chat.blahaj.zone
We'll maintain and improve as we learn more about pixelart, as well as adding new ones.

Based on my scrap metal parts from forming cursive writing names out of coat hangers.
Reference for sake of scrap material..
Working on this new painting. Not really sure if it's done yet.
This one was not easy. It is made of an aluminium plate under a brass plate, attached together by handmade rivets (tiny nails, that you hammer down on the pointy side at the back to flatten it and clamp the two plates together).
The big difficulty of this is the rivets, that are already not very easy (for me) to do, but here I had to shape them after bending the curve of the two metal plates. Why? Because if you attach them together, then try to bend them, the outer plate has a flatter curve than the inner one, which misaligns the holes of the rivets. And in the process, starts tearing them and causing damage and other problems.
However, hammering down a tiny nail, while having to make sure that the hammering is done in the proper way, on a non-flat surface, feels a little bit like trying to kill a mosquito with a hammer: it doesn't feel right, and you know that it'll probably end in a disaster.
At least, the little problems that appeared in the process are not too visible, but yeah, I'm not so sure I would want to make this one again :')
This makes me happy, I want to be here.

Made some pixel emojis on Android using PixaPencil
They're called "Pink Cube" and you can find them here #the-sticker-box:chat.blahaj.zone
This is a new sticker room, that would only house stickers we made, or stickers with permissive licneses
We will share them on our codeberg at some point. We'll make an annoucement about it on our fedi account
A simple bow with arrows, the bow is copper and the rest is brass. Medieval weapons make for simple but effective earrings, and work well for your next TTRPG game :D
I have also made dangling flail earrings that were fun, but maybe less obviously recognisable than these.
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
