(warning bright colors) This was a ref sheet but I added a background and "some" lighting lol enjoy! #ocs #rejectisland #refsheets

Lol so I came back to inkblot in like since forever and, I can't change my username at all. After 6 months apparently. I just re-signed in and apparently I never set up my account yet already posted stuff? Oh well. Anyway hi! Im Emzi! (No longer lady bird) and i'd like to be called as such. Thanks!

InkBlot doesn't seem to let you upload artwork (or, should I say, 'images'), huh. Hopefully it's just me.

Side Note in relation to a previous post before we start... Yes, I did manage to beat Contra! XD "Computer Maintenance" (Originally drawn Oct 9th, 2025) I wanted to make something silly, and I thought about how in some Kirby games he's seen holding wrenches or wearing a hard hat in options menus in some games, so I had Davy try to help out. ...The problem is... I don't think he knows much about computers, given that he pulled out a cartoonishly huge wrench... XD #art #artwork

"He can't help but feel it, can't help but get hurt, can't help but feel this wonderful thing that consumes him. He can't help but fall in love with you." 🫀🫀🫀 This is my entry for the pikollab of February 14th! I hope you like it, and don't forget to check out the other artists' beautiful illustrations!! *⁠･° -------> ALT description: A drawing of Piko Utatane (Vocaloid 2) for Pikollab's February 14th Collab. The drawing shows Piko hunched over, barely holding flowers that keep sprouting from his mouth, the petals fly through space; he looks at the camera/viewer with resigned surprise. The background is shaded in black and white with the kanji for Hanahaki behind him. Illuminating his embarrassed face is a juxtaposed star with brighter, more cheerful colors. Despite his suffering, Piko can't help but find love wonderful. #Vocaloid #PikoUtatane #ValentineDay #Pikollab

ORIGINAL TITLE: Ready for the battles ahead. EXTRA RENDERS, EARLY ACCESS, TIMELAPSE AND FULL RESOLUTION ON SUPPORT PAGES This thing. This stupid thing. It was a beast to make, an actual, terrifying nightmare. The background was a pain to do, the main pose was a pain to do, the 6 other characters were a pain to do, existing was a pain to do (still is), but I saw it through the end! This was a commission for the same discord friend as our latest uploaded! He wanted his human pokemon trainer Tag in a pose, ready to go, with all of his team surrounding him. When he said "I want 7 characters for this commission!" I felt the chillest cold that I've ever felt. Of course I said "You got it, boss!" and then spent the next 11 hours of work (Which of course were 90% on the shading) and finally getting it done! Done entirely in Krita with no 3D posing! Enjoy, ya weird salamanders! https://linktr.ee/battlestoriesfan #mewtwo #quaquaval #ironvaliant #ribombee #weavile #mawile #pokemontrainer #human #pokemon #nintendo #originalcharacter #oc #cartoony #stylized #commission #digitalart #art #artwork #sfw #gamefreak #anthro #anthropomorphic

Ngl it's been a week since the 2.0 release and I'm disappointed to see there still hasn't been a single CLEAR improvement in sight. Idk if the team is still as small as it was before but like. I have to sadly agree with some criticism I've seen on the main page. It's sad to see that a new version of the website was pushed out when it clearly isn't functional, and I'm wondering why the staff decided to revamp it into looking like a mashup of other social media websites like FB and Twt. Reactions?? Rlly?? Why am I still not able to upload a banner and why did it make an independent post the one time it seemed to work? Why did it delete the banner when I tried to hide my post from my timeline??? Why is there a 'followers' tab before my gallery (that's not even called gallery) and why do I have to click a button to see past 6 previews of the most recently posted art? Is this not a website dedicated to art and creative stuff? Why does it not show my gallery proper? Is the activity so damn low on the website rn that it keeps looping to the same things I've been seeing for the past 7 days? Or have people been posting and I don't see anything? And why is it that some users seem to be fine with uploading stuff and others aren't? Maybe I'm just ignorant about the current situation or what the staff is up to but I would've sincerely preferred to wait longer than to face the excitement of a new version, only to immediately eat disappointment. I've always loved the initiative they had in creating a safe space for artists given how most platforms are going to sh!t, but idk man. In any case, I'm going back to my corner on twt, IG and bsky lol. I shall be waiting for news but will stop checking every 2 days if I can upload a banner or simple image 😂

Behold! My character Alya! She's my Cypher character for a Curse of Strahd campaign and I loved playing so much that she's now a permanent OC. Read more on Character Hub below or ask questions here! https://characterhub.com/character/alya-pZUivPPZ #characterdesign #cyphersystem #curseofstrahd

Yet again, more works using the Rejected Palettes. I really had fun with these a lot! :-] https://sites.google.com/view/rejected-palettes 🔥 Sunfire (Earth-4476): "fire" by crooked_code ⚡ Kobold (Earth-2510): "AAA GREEN" by GSH Dragon #RejectedPalettes #Marvel #MarvelFanonverse #2heoBH6AU #Earth2510AU

I've been thinking about this for a bit, but many of the design choices that came with this 2.0 update are... baffling, to say the least? The site is actually usable now (it barely worked for me before), but it feels like another Facebook/Twitter clone, rather than an art site. I'll continue to observe how things develop but I'm not sure I'm convinced yet. I also wanted to test uploading art here but I quite literally can't, I get an error every time.

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.
