Art vs Artist ^^
I don't have any other good selfies + I rarely take pictures of myself so bear with this lmao,, let's hope next year I'll actually do at least a few rendered pieces
2023 sure was an intense year for me! 🎉🎉🎉
I met a lot of new friends and discovered a lot of new fandoms! I learned how to draw lineless art and finally started to express myself! I got myself NECA Mirage!Honeycutt figurine and GIR rucksack I really wanted! Overall - this was a wonderful year and I’d like to thank everyone who was there for me this time around, you guys are awesome 💖
I totally forgot to post this yesterday oops!

Art Vs Artist [My commissions!]
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted but here’s my art v. artist!
Arch vs Archist.
I did the art vs artist meme, except I kind of cheated, because top middle, the art IS the artist
Well… here are my results of the year for the arts :3 I've never done anything like this before. Why don't I start making these things this year?)
Happy New Year!
A bit late posting here, sorry! It's a weird time of year and it's hard to get to reality after the Christmas period. I will have new work to post soon 🌟
Here - have a thing ✨
Do people do these on here? I will get back to posting actual art when I arrive back on earth. It's a bit late, but here's to 2024 🥂
I don't know if this challenge is popular on this site yet I'm dropping it anyway
Art Vs. Artist 2024?? Yeah
My Art Summary of 2023, along with a Art Vs Artist of this year
Most of these I posted publicly on here except for July's; which is a practice drawing of textured colored images featuring Rin Kagamine.
The template of the art summary is by @/taxkha (it's actually for 2022 but I edited because. Yes)

I think Tumblr is the only place I can freely talk, aside from Discord with friends.
Honestly? I feel this year I've been lacking as an artist.
I draw full pieces once or twice a month while I see others post more art than me, sometimes posting doodles they made in their free times.
My doodles are traditional. I prefer posting digitally, but I do want to doodle digitally more. But why does everytime I think "I'm gonna doodle this thing that'll be done in a couple minutes" and then I'll spend almost an hour on it??
My once or twice a month postings are what I'm ashamed about, honestly. I wish I could draw more after two or three days of finishing my previous work. Was it tiredness? Was it laziness? Was it executive dysfunction?
I do think there's fear. There's a linger of it as if I can't draw this artwork exactly like my mental vision. I never had this before. Why now suddenly? As well as practice to draw something new or something I have to master again?
I need to step back. I'm trying to stop comparing my work from other artists, it feels so relieving. Why compare myself to another person as I and them are two completely different people? With two different perspectives?
I did talked about my posting schedules comparing others just now. I am still working on this personal problem. Comparing art is one thing, but comparing another's success might be a whole nother fuckery.
Of course I do find inspiration from others. Though... I feel a lot of the artists I am inspired by are so... contrasting. I should compile my art inspos in a little folder lmao
I'm not sure about the "Reblogs > Likes" will stay though. Nowadays I feel I don't give a fuck anymore, I just wanna draw and post art. I saw that and go back frustrated at the number of likes and reblogs/shares lmaoooo; I'm working that though.
Perhaps an artist's way of thriving is to thrive with other artists. I am grateful of the friends I made in Discord servers, especially the OC server. It's also the same server I participated in am art telephone known as Tewephone. Again, I am very happy to participate with my friends ^^
On a much less important note, I need more OCs. I need more. My brain keeps giving me character ideas and I feel like making characters. I need more non-fan OCs though. But still. Need more OCs.
I am holding onto the hope I still contain in my heart. 2023 has been a ton of ups and downs (a lot of downs to be honest but whatever). I wish my friends, my family and everyone reading this a happy and hopeful 2024.
Happy New Years, everyone! 🎉🎊
It's that time of year again, art vs. artist 2023!
Art vs. Artist thing... why not? I have like zero style consistency. Every piece is different, like drawn by different people, but they’re all mine. Even I can’t belive it...
also: no good of photos of myself, unless... cosplay.
alrighty until my tablet arrives in a few days i decided to do this art vs artist thing
yes my face is a void im sorry okay not everyone can live up to society’s wackass beauty standards
anyways--yknow what’s woke? experimenting with different styles, which is what i’ve been doing, as u can see here. I can’t really pin down one, but these are the ones I gravitate towards the most!! hope this is fun to look at
dont reupload or i eat ur knees
Hello, I'm Ban (they/them), and after four years or so, I find myself again on Tumblr.
I write and translate fanfiction, and I also do cosplay. I've lost count of how many times I've tried to pick up the habit of drawing just to drop it after a while, but anyway, I'm at it once more. As you can see, this time I'm mostly motivated by the author MXTX, whose good old ghost king Hua Cheng lives rent free in my head, but I hope to slowly delve into my other fandoms through this medium as well.
Glad to be back to the hellsite!
