Oh no Annai is goo :O Also fun fact: Goo creatures lifting themselves up with their tail(s) out of the puddle they form? Heckin’ rad
Year: 2020
Bowser Day 2020
In my attempts to push through burnout I decided to actually to try and do Bowser Day this year and redraw this piece from 2014
So what’s going on with that fire DO? The implication is that it’s an illusion, something I didn’t really pull off in 2014 honestly, and I think? I pulled it off this time???
Also originally I went with the eye colour for the shell and honestly? I don’t think that works on the original so went with the darker colour I use for Marcus and I think it looks much better.
Final changes? Extra chonk, and hopefully a slightly more dynamic pose to it. That relaxed arm on the old version just, doesn’t fit (pretending to) breathing fire, but I think having it flex a little upwards shows a much more “in charge” pose and much more actively in to it really.
“I said I could take you anywhere”
“Even somewhere between here and there, but I think after that failed ritual that I should have some fun first.
Witness this power while this Wicked Four-Tailed Guide of Disaster leads you to the ultimate end!”
A little sketch of Annai I posted on social media earlier this month that I decided to finish up in non-commission time.
Decided to also throw in a reference to EX-Annai :3c

Annai Siru – Base Form Reference
🔞 Adult Ref under the cut 🔞
I had a super rough weekend at work (Retail in current climate) before I worked on this, so decided to take a “chill” week and play games.
Instead I did a reference that took up almost all that time, oh well. Done in time for Animal Crossing :3c

MSPaintesque Annai
Fancied doing one of these MSPaint things again after work
Really I needed another Grey to be totally satisfied here, but that’s what the limitations are for!
Disclaimer I guess: I draw this in SAI but limit the final work to the pixel/binary tool and the colour scheme
It’s more a limitation of toolset than purely “MSPaint”

In Space, No One Can Hear You Onomatopoeia
This started out as random DO floating, then kinda just built from there, a tank, TF-y things, etc.
Eventually a BG was added because I had the title of this post stuck in my head and honestly, the amount of times I willingly do a background a year can be counted on one hand, two if I’m feeling more motivated than usual.
As a result I tried to do some more things than usual on it with the shading and lighting. Also some transparency on DO for a change. Not sure I like how I did either honestly but you don’t learn things from not trying them!
2010-2019 – A Decade of Art
So here we are, the tensies are gone and now we’re in the 21st twenties. I’ll be honest and just be blunt that yeah, looking at a decade in review I’ve obviously improved but how much genuinely surprises me. It doesn’t feel like my artistic ability was as it was in 2010, whether that’s a commentary on how time moves as an adult or just generally how fast most the decade feels to have moved.
Most my thoughts are already on the image under the cut and I won’t be linking to the images either, mostly because I’m not sure I can actually find where some of these images are even posted. Sure I have all my art saved and backed up, but that means nothing for online sites 😛
