Draw me like one of your English vampires.
WIP. One of Cleopatra's occupations is portrait commissions for vampires who can't see their reflections. Pierce is a born model.
Proud of my Regency Era furniture (and my humans), though something still seems a little wonky. I don't know much by way of perspective or proportion, so that's one of the skills I hope to improve this year.
The person who wrote this question was in my walls, I just know it!! I felt very, very seen - in a good way. (Ignore the side-eye medaeival owl. He doesn't know what's going on.)
That's from Neuropsycology Dorset's autism screening test. I'm not surprised to find that I'm probably not neuronormal, but I didn't expect to score that highly in both the ADHD and autism screening. C'mon, brain!
I'm wondering if I should get a formal diagnosis; I'm not sure how much help it would be. I know it varies according to person, so if anyone has experience in this, do let me know!
(Screaming cat is Mewi de Pointe du Cat from Lescat corpse yeeting)
(Loosely) based on comic panels sent to me by @blackforrestpunk . Read his comics here. Bonus points if you can catch a Cat Punk Erik.
Get yourself a friend in a vastly different time zone with whom you can still complain about being sleep depraved at the same time or something
I've been hyperfixating on a crafting project for three days now, and my brain is bent out of shape, I hope I can get back to normal tomorrow, we shall see if the fixation gremlins let me out of the dungeon
What are your "Oh no, if people I know read this, they'll be concerned," writing projects?
I don't often talk about these original characters, Lolly and Stephen Wargrave, since their story is quite twisted and hard to make into funny posts. Well, I had the urge to cattify them today, and it's sort of funny, so here they are.
These gory weirdos are brainrotting me now, so maybe I'll blab about them again soon.
Erik feels a bit lonely on Christmas.
(Let me make clear that I only ship Pharoga on condition that they are a fluffy perisan cat and a bald gremlin sphynx cat. But in this particular case, I will do it often and obnoxiously.)
Erik DOES cook chicken. The meal is canon, people. More (very canon) Pharoga cats here!
I never got round to posting photos of my Nosferatu bag, did I? Meet Stephie.
She might be small and look like a sock monkey, but she has a fur collar and a silver heart locket (and mouse minions) just like Count Orlok. Perfect size for keeping my phone safe, and perfect emotional support for ventures outdoors because I can hold her hand when I walk.
(Someone who saw me making Stephie came around the other day and asked me, "Where's the rat?" I didn't bother correcting them. As long as nobody calls her dead baby Yoda, we're fine.)
Thank you for the tag, Greenfinch! I'm sorry it took me so long, I have much difficulty choosing favourites. In no specific order:
Christine Daaé - Le Fantôme de l'Opéra by Gaston Leroux
Mina Harker - Dracula
Noemí Taboada - Mexican Gothic
Edith Sharpe - Crimson Peak (my Gothic is showing, isn't it)
Diana Bishop - All Souls Trilogy
Wednesday Addams
Mary Watson - Sherlock (until the showrunners used her as a plot point. I'm still massively disappointed about that.)
Bella Baxter - Poor Things (the 2023 film, I haven't got my paws on the book yet)
I'm feeling a lack of evil ladies in my list, and it feels too self-indulgent to throw my own crazy lady characters in, so I'm off to find some.
Open tag!
Thank for the tag @elvisqueso I love that you included Marissa Schurr because the side characters in Hannibal are everything <333 (also Rumiko Takahashi draws the most beautiful women 🙂↕️)
In honor of International Women's Day, list eight of your favorite fictional women from eight different fandoms, in no particular order.
Beverly Katz - Hannibal
Toph Beifong - ATLA
Dolores Abernathy - Westworld
Tara Thornton - True Blood
Dowager Countess of Grantham - Downton Abbey
Lucille Bluth - Arrested Development
Homura Akemi - Puella Magi Madoka Magica

@w0lfinsheepscl0thing Yes we can! It's a drawing from my website!
How many literary cats can you recognise?
Germs got me. The whole inside of my head, throat and chest feels inflamed. Like a vampurr who snorted garlic powder or something - I've lost my singular braincell, can't really be poetic.
Oh well, guilt-free bedrot and "Salem's Lot" audiobook. I'm not a fan of Stephen King, but vampire fiction is vampire fiction.
I'm not going to be up to much these days. I do have some weird drafts stored up, and if my brain comtinues to be so swollen, I might just post them.
Art exchange with @frommarshtheycome
Who would win, the Skeleton Man or his own stage/screen adaptation?
Original comic with Christine here and Void Face Erik here.
Thank you, Marsh, for your wonderful art of Sarah!
Amanda. Artist. Writer. Victorian vampire. Here lies my shenanigans.
