The more I think about it.... The less I like it, unfortunately. Even putting aside the weird mobile bug that I mentioned in my previous post, things just feel... Off. Kind of like this is a social media app template and not an art site anymore; like no actual work was done to go from the ideas of 1.0. There isn't even a way to browse art in a grid view, which is like... The one main thing I expect from an art-focused platform (if there is, I have not found it, and if I haven't found it... Then that's bad design). I was excited to see 2.0 being out finally, as someone for whom the site was pretty much unusable for the longest time, and also as someone who participated in the initial funding. I don't want to lost hope, and I know 2.0 was JUST released but... With no communication in the discord, or additional info in the email, it doesn't give me a good feeling. As of now, I don't think I'll try posting on here again. I'll keep an eye on things still, but from a distance.

Oh god... What even happened here? We went from an art site to a facebook clone? All my artwork is out of order, my page doesn't even feel like an art site gallery, the front page is just another scrolling timeline where everything is massive and built with only mobile users in mind... I have to scroll endlessly to see any new artwork, hidden among people's status posts... No way to browse just artwork outside of tags. No way to see a tile of recently uploaded artwork. At least as far as I can tell. Clicking on trending tags brings me to yet another timeline scroll, which isn't even centered on desktop. It's aligned to the left with a lot of dead space on the right that is just... empty. Yeah no. This website is not for me. This isn't an art site. ("Photos" instead of "Gallery"???) It's yet another generic social media clone. Sorry, but that's not what I'm interested in. I don't know why there's such a push for every new site having a mobile-centric UI, even on desktop, designed to keep you scrolling forever on your phone. It is *so clunky* to use on desktop. It's so easy to miss new art uploads, because you can't view thumbnails on a grid. Discoverability becomes tied to how often people share your pieces around. I'm just tired, man. Maybe I'm just getting old and exhausted from trying out so many new "art sites". The way artwork is displayed and discovered is one of the most important things to me. I want to be able to open the front page, and see a grid of new artwork, where I can select multiple tabs to open and browse at my leisure. I want my profile to have my art be the focus. I don't need everything to try to function like bluesky or twitter, and if this is the direction inkblot is going to go, then well... I don't think I'll be giving it another chance. So if anyone who happened to follow me here (I can see my follower count got wiped anyway) wants to see what sort of art I'm doing now, please check out any of my other social links here: https://runicillusionist.carrd.co/ I hope for those of you who do intend on staying that this site serves your needs better than mine. But for me, I'm out. - Rune 🐇 EDIT: WHY IS THE WEBSITE CARD LINK SO BIG!???

Cleared my entire upload history because otherwise there would be a 2+ year jump in between old and new art. I can see stuff again on here (wasn't able to for a really long time) The website being back (in its new version) was pretty sudden, and I'll have to take time to figure everything out now that it's all new, but I hope that this time it'll be usable 🙏 I've been active on bsky the most, and I'm not planning on re-posting anything here, but the profile is linked in my bio (hopefully we get that option for social links soon!). I also got rid of the second account that I had on here for doodles as I have stopped posting those on single-gallery websites (i.e., without a "scraps" gallery). It looks like the "blogs" page isn't working (yet?) so I'm just putting this in a regular post for now. [edit] I hope there will be a chronological feed and not just "popular" and "suggested" posts. Right now that's all I'm seeing on the front page 😳 [edit 2] I think the lack of a chronological feed might be because I'm not following anyone (yet), but I don't really feel tempted to follow anyone when the only accessible posts are the same few "popular" ones 🤔 I've also noticed a bug in the mobile version of the website (I did send a bug report) that makes it unusable (it keeps forcing me to the previous page seemingly randomly), so I'll only be using it on desktop for now.

made these w my left hand [ID: First image: A page of traditional drawings made with the artist's non-dominant hand. The lines are all squiggly, but confident nonetheless. Two of these doodles portray a person without a face, and in one of them they are pulling on a string hung from the ceiling with force. There's also another drawing, but this time it's of a big bell. Second image: A traditional sketch made with the artist's non-dominant hand. There are two drawings, one of a person with their face covered looking over their shoulder, and another of an arm holding a thin pen. The person's bony back is visible, and their right arm is obscured by their torso. Third image: A traditional sketch in red ink, which was made with the artist's non-dominant hand. There are three squiggly drawings of a faceless person, their face hidden behind a geometrical shape. The drawings depict them down on the floor, avoiding eye contact, and throwing their hands in the air to make unknown signs respectively. Final image: A traditional sketch in red ink made with the artist's non-dominant hand. It depicts a person without a face doing a peace sign close to the viewer. There's text behind them that reads: Share your beautiful unemployed soul to the world and let it change the color of the seas.

After some INVESTIGATING I see that the v.2.0 is still a WIP/facing technical issues! So for now here's a simple post of my art summary for the past year! Most of these were for merch, collaborations and events, but I did enjoy doing a lot of them. *Edit: Forgot to say the template is from @/whoismiyan on twitter! #artsummary2025 #HazbinHotel #HazbinHotelValentino #HazbinHotelVox #HazbinHotelVax

dont mind me, just trying out the schedule feature w these two :-) [ID: A four panel sketch comic of our characters Peseta and Rukhsar when they were alive. First panel: Both of them are on the street taking a stroll, as Peseta puts his hand on his inner jacket's pocket and says: 'Yeah, I call the $1 bill 'the diet dollar' because it's such a tiny amount of money to me'. Peseta looks smug and Rukhsar looks right at him with a smile on her face. Second panel: Peseta takes out his flip-phone from his pocket and a dime falls out. Third panel: The dime rolls over Peseta and ends up falling trough a nearby sewer. Fourth panel: Peseta loses his confidence as he watches the sewer eat the dime, yelling "Noooo!" with visible sweatdrops on his face. He swiftly regains his composure after the fact and turns to Rukhsar again in an attempt to reconquer her by saying that it was an heirloom.

Imma go nuts about The Mandalorian AU! :Dc (Keeping this short for now.) So, Akumu is obviously in this AU cuz there’s magic. There is Jeti temples but their abilities is strictly telepathic and simple levitation spells. This is true for most species. There is no dragocian Jeti, although, but they can use these abilities through other means, like technology-wise. Akumu, like all other Royal Dragocians are considered advanced mages with their own title, “Guardian.” The rest of the subspecies (Northern, Winter, Desert, etc) has an ability to use elemental magic but it depends on their energy levels. Some can use many different types of spells and does not tire quickly. But some can only use low energy spells. (Royal Dragocians are a good exception to this. They have a crystal in their chest, which allows them to store huge amount of energy for use.) Other species can use magic to a certain extent but it depends on the location. Some planets carry more energy than the others. If that planet does not carry any energy, magic use will be much harder and the magic user will have to rely on their own energy to use. Royal Dragocians are extremely powerful beings that can wield high energy magic spells. But they are not exactly common to see on Altea and other worlds. Since they are considered the guardians of the world, they would be considered leaders (if they proved themselves worthy of leaderships.) They can main in one or two specific elements. They are also the only species that can fly and use dragon fire. (Din had a blast finding that out in the hardest possible way. Akumu flew up and asked him to follow. Guess what he did? He jumps a few inches off the ground, just like Grogu did. 😭 Akumu had to do a bit of encouraging to teach him how to fly.) Royal Dragocians can be compared to a Jeti but their power level is far from them and does not use a lightsaber as a main weapon. Magic is all they need as a weapon. Certain elements can be dangerous to wield and can be extremely difficult to use. Elements such as pure crystals, air, metal, and few others are harder to master. (With a exception of Din, apparently. He had a easier time using crystal spells more than anything else. Which is extremely surprising to Akumu. It took her years to learn and master it.) Back to the Jeti! Jeti cannot use any magical spells, due to a strange energy type they use. You can say that they are more attuned to nature than anything. Dragocians usually refers them as Animal Whisperers since they can communicate to any wildlife easily. (Dragocians cannot communicate with wildlife but Royal Dragocians can.) Since the empire rises, their temple fell and scattered. There are hardly any Jeti anywhere but there are a few known living Jeti. A bit about Grogu: Grogu may be the last of their kind but that cannot be confirmed since what they are. He is a Celestial Dragon that lives among the stars. In his past, he was taken before he hatched and he then was raised on Coruscant. But due to the rise of empire, his “training” was incomplete and his identity remained a secret until about 40 years later. The Lost Empire was searching for him to use him to create their own army of Dragocians and mages. It is said that his scales can make anyone a temporary mage and it is said that a drop of his blood can turn anyone into a half Dragocian, permanently. This allows them to use magic a bit more efficiently. Grogu knows what he really is but chose to keep that to himself, even from his Buir. (His father, Din.) A bit about Din Djarin: Din Djarin is a natural born Royal Dragocian and he never knew what he was until after the battle of the Pike on Tatooine. A voice called out to him and guided him to crush that one droid using magic. Since that was his first time using magic, it did tire him out pretty quick. After that battle, he decided to seek out the people like him. Sure enough, he found them and his living family. Akumu is his biological mother, hence the last name,’ Djarin.’ Akumu knew who he is the moment he got closer to his homeworld, Altea. (Altea is a planet, which is located far from the outer rims. It is more isolated than other systems. Akumu is the current Queen and rules over the entire systems, several systems actually.) There, he finds more mandalorians (that are willing to follow him as Manda’lor.) and ended up training there for a few years. He now follows his own Mandalorian way AND super OP with magic. (Grogu did not see him until after the siege of Mandalore.) Needless to say, he may learn pretty quick but magic is not easy to use. (Pretty much explodes in his face a few times.) After a few years, he goes and looks for Bo-Katan and her group. During that time, Bo-Katan spent these time seeking out more Mandalorians to join the cause, to reclaim what was lost to them. The moment he arrives, everyone was pretty hesitant to follow his lead but Din proved himself as a worthy Manda’lor in time. :3c After aaaaallll that, Din and Grogu finally reunited. You bet Grogu was so happy to see his Buir again and sees him actually accepting of who he is. Din was so excited to show him everything as well. From magic he learned to the places he explored. But it’s not over yet. They still gonna worry about the Lost Empire after all that events that happened. :,D Which is still incomplete series rn. (I’m still writing all the stories and doodling some cute/full of action scenes.) (I would be happy to answer any questions if needed. 👌 I love talking about all this. :,D This also goes to my other OCs too!)
