Uploaded my #SecretOfMana painting to #deviantArt; it's been a while since I regularly posted #art there: https://www.deviantart.com/fixato/art/Purim-at-the-Great-Forest-1149424312

In hindsight I should've replaced the flag with Popoi sitting next to her, since it feels too much out of place.

While there are certainly still things that could use improvement (hands, perspective, face, relative size of objects/models), I'm quite satisfied with the overall feel, especially for something painted in one go, in under 3 hours.

Constructive pointers welcome.

Last night I wanted to explore the world of #Mana a bit more in watercolours, so I decided to paint a scene I had in mind to celebrate a Dutch Discord friend getting a new job.

Remember when #Phlox fed a #Tribble to one of his critters? xD

I'd forgotten about it 😅

Slowly getting back into aquarelle painting again.

Two evenings ago I painted this wintery scene based on a photograph I took in #Bodø just under 3 years ago, around 9 in the morning.

Quite satisfied with how it turned out, especially the sun coming up from behind the mountains, though less so with the recognisability of the mountains.

Paper: 230 grams A5 paper from Søstrene Grene, 100% paper.

Paint: a mix of Panduro Watercolour Set Basic, Van Gogh Water Colour, Daniel Smith Hansa Yellow Light, and some white gouache.

I had to cut a strip off my water colour paper to make it fit the frame, so I turned it into a bookmark with a phrase from Star Trek: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/IDIC

Did a quick #aquarelle #painting this evening on some #A5 #watercolour paper from #SøstreneGrene.

Some cauliflower blooms from overworking it, but overall I'm satisfied with the end results.

A bit of a warmer image to contrast the cold winter weather that's prevalent on these short dark December days.

lol, this line from #Lucifer: "there's a word to describe you, but I can't quite put my finger on it. It's like a shower, but in French"

There aren't more than like 10 people on fedi. The rest is just bots. Watch me post this from my other accounts

Also, this made me find out that #SongWhip no longer is a thing :( I really liked that service for sharing links to other (streaming) platforms with clear legible URLs...

I rarely sing in public, but #Zombie by #TheCranberries does have a tendency to make me not give a fuck about what anyone thinks and sing to myself 😅

Currently enjoying this version by #Breed77: https://open.spotify.com/track/5rIIQ92QkbNIrRPo1EuBTH (links to other platforms: https://song.link/i/1290001025)

The original still is the best, but I do really enjoy these different takes on it.

This week's #Spotify recommendations have been quite good overall actually: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZEVXcXaPCCqLi4W5

Another photo of the #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights in the sky last night.

[#]LongExposure photo taken with my #Xiaomi #RedmiNote10Pro with stock camera app, and cropped and post-processed in #googlePhotos to make the colours pop a bit more. Nice to see a bit of pink in there too.

While kiddo was doing his own things with #LEGO, along with the other kids there, and occasionally asking me for help taking bricks apart, or finding a certain brick, I made a miniature #tableFootball stadium for a game of two versus two. It uses four sets of two LEGO Technic sticks joined together, with the torso of a minifig attached to the joint. Each figure can be rotated and moved horizontally enough to get the 'ball' (the head of a minifig) across the entire court.

Afterwards #BeardGrabber suggested swapping the minifigs out for red and purple ghost figures.

Visiting the local #library so #BeardGrabber can play with more #LEGO than I'd have space for at home. 😂

@kelson you left the raid invite right before 4 others joined 😂

How's your GoFest been so far? I think I've done more raids these past two days than the past couple of months combined 😅 Finally made a dent in my stash of premium raid passes. #PokemonGO
