Happy New Year, everybody!!
Just posting this cause I've finally committed on a new username. CanisChiroptera was nice but the word "Canis" has no real relevance to me and I want it to be 100%, y'know? This one combines Chiroptera (the order of bats) with ancient saying of my fellow Canadians, "eh". Oh, and the double i's are mostly just to look cool but it's also a subtle nod to the late great Avicii.
Thank you for the warm welcome, Tumblr! So far I’m enjoying my time here a lot and I hope we can have an awesome 2022 together.
Oh, and one last thing: I’m crossposting everything on Buzzly! It’s a startup art site that’s kind of a mix between Tumblr and classic DeviantArt. Highly recommend! Come visit me, yeah? https://buzzly.art/~Chiiroptereh
Some painting practice with one of my characters ‘cause it’s been a while. Not finished and probably never will be, but I like it anyway! Hope you do too. :D
This has been the hardest year of my life, but a productive one. 2024 is going to be better. Happy New Year, everybody; apologies if I don't answer my DMs today <:) ❤️🩹

Oh my god I loved the shaker concept so much that I bought like $50 worth of art supplies and made my own janky one out of construction paper! Never done anything like this before and though it’s definitely no acrylic I still really like how it turned out haha. Sealed away forever. Hope you like it! 8D
My smiling friends merch concepts!!! Going to digitalize these later but for now here’s popsicle smiling friends charms and a shaker charm of the HQ with planned acrylic pieces inside!! :D will most likely order a small batch once Im ready!
do you know of any yvbill fics? I can never find any
There's one on ao3 (NSFW because the 34th rule of the internet remains eternal) but aside from that I haven't come across any, unfortunately! Perhaps still a bit too niche. You and me should change that, anon. :D
Inspiration struck at three in the morning and I couldn't sleep until I fulfilled my destiny

Ough.....my favorite worm
I do not like drawing on my iPad ;_; For some reason it totally short-circuits my brain and I forget my entire process. This looks better than most of it but eh?? Still not a super big fan. Nonetheless, hope you like it, lol!
Study, ~2 hr
Feeling weird about my process rn and figured it'd be good for me. Mainly trying to work on color, light as it plays on fur, shape language and behind-the-scenes stuff like layer blend modes and orders. I feel I learned a lot about light here, actually! Subsurface scattering is way more prevalent than I thought. That, and leaves are very reflective.

Another guy <3 He just wants to fish for god's sake
I’m away from my tablet so I’m having to draw on my iPad and I DON’T LIKE IT >:(
On the bright side, putting Glep in funny cat photos is extremely funny
