New week, new batch! Let's get right into it.

I only ever saw Halley drawn in a cartoony style, so I wanted to take a stab at a more realistic rendition. I think it came out pretty good!

I've been meaning to draw the "shark bites optical fiber" meme with Osda for a while but never got around to, and Io's rendition of that meme made me want to do it even more, too!

Well, this isn't that, but it's reminiscent of that! Like a hommage or something. A nod. To the meme I never drew. Yeah.

Anyway, this piece was super painful to draw because the references I've used made me SO hungry. I had to stop and have an early lunch that day.

This was a fun piece to work on. Prism is cool. I'm also really happy with the background, even though that was by far the quickest part of the piece to make (like 20 minutes or something).

Man, I should draw bikes more often.

As is tradition, I make sure to give Tea an attack for her birthday; this year I wanted to go for something even more dramatic than usual. I'm not 100% satisfied with this piece, but apparently people have been liking this one the most, so... neat?

A bit of an injoke, this one. Alright, story time. 

The Viera here is Arthur, a character that Ailanthium has been using in various settings for a while. In one of the earlier settings, he was friend with a character of mine, Fereinn; it was platonically, in canon, but oh so much more in the cracks that people have written (though, well, we did encourage it, it was always funny as shit).

So imagine my delight when I read that the man behind Arthur's arm is none other than Cid nan Garland, a man who shares so so many similarities with a future version of Fereinn (which was bound to happen, as Cid Highwind was the main inspiration for him lmao).

Anyway, that's the context. I thought it was pretty funny.

I'm not sure what the inside of a swallowtail is supposed to look like, but since Iris uses a lot of AR stuff, I figured I'd have some fun with that.

hmmmmm fuit gummy

A cool elf! Initially I wanted to draw a more scenic scene, with waves crashing on the hull of a ship and all that, but I didn't have the energy to embark on that kind of journey so I went with something significantly simpler.

I was surprised to find a night fury OC; never really crossed my mind that it would be a thing, really. Anyway, it's a dragon, so my usual trick works just fine here: just draw a wide cat. Yep that's my secret to dragons, folks. I just draw cats. Hard to unsee it once you know, really. Sorry for that.

 

And with this, the total number of attacks so far is 18, which ties last year's record! Ideally, I would love to make it 30, so that it fills an entire page in the attack list, but we'll see how that goes hah
