Quick update
Posted 3 weeks agoHey there, I’m sorry I haven’t been posting much recently. I haven’t been drawing much since I’ve been busy farm sitting rn. Unfortunately I literally have barely been drawing anything recently and I have nothing to show off currently.
Next week is also ramping up to be a busy irl week as well so I probably won’t be able to get much drawing done. After the next upcoming week things should slow down enough for me to get something in art wise until my local festival hits in early-to-mid October.
So uh… what franchises/series/games have you guys been into recently and what’s your favorite part about it? (I’m genuinely curious)

Grid?
Posted 2 months agoSo as artfight slows down I currently don’t have any commissions to do and I’m still very hyper fixated on Monster Hunter. I was wondering if you guys would be interested in one of those Grid adopts (the A/B/C x 1/2/3) things but Monster Hunter themed with various tiers and options.
If you are interested, what monsters would you like to see on there? Because I’d like to do a mix of popular ones and more obscure ones that need some love.
The end results would be polished like these:

I've created a Bluesky account
Posted 10 months agoIdk if any of y'all are interested but I'm giving Bluesky a try: https://bsky.app/profile/maystrine.bsky.social
Ideally I'd like to post more wips or just random thoughts there but we'll see. (I dont use Twitter since I avoid it like the plague)

Upcoming 500 event?
Posted 11 months agoHello everyone! I know I have been busy recently. But it seems like I'm getting close to 500 watchers. So that means I'm probably gonna host another event when I reach 500! It's weird to think that I had only hit 200 watchers 2 years ago. I was thinking of doing another free 3 winner raffle, but I'm open to suggestions for something else thou.
My second point is that my birthday is coming up real quick (November 19th) so I was thinking, if I somehow managed to hit 500 watchers by then I'd double the raffle prizes, or I'd like to do a small sketchy ych raffle of someone celebrating with Hhvoh (even though I'm currently revamping her lol). Just an idea thou, currently I'm working hard on the sketchy headshots and I'm doing a new ref for Alonzo because the old one really bothers me.

Currently Cooking...
Posted a year agoIve got something planned for April fools (and it ain't a joke) so keep an eye out for it ;)
Probably going to downsize
Posted 2 years agoThings are happening irl so I might have to put up some of my personal old characters up for offers.
I just hit 200 Watchers
Posted 3 years agoHi there! As the title says I just hit 200 followers on here. I wanted to do a small event or something. Any suggestions? (Raffle, YCH, etc?)

I'll also look at collabs, design trades, and NSFW is an option. Alternatively, I'm still taking commissions too.
Remember The 2010's Cringe Culture?
Posted 3 years agoOkay so normally I know journals are used for life updates but instead I'm going to use it for questions and stuff - I'm in an oddly conversational mood rn. (I'm only now trying to unpack whatever the fuck that last decade was) SO - let's discuss this suspiciously specific topic.
-
My question is: how did it affect you? Do you find yourself sub-consciously concerned how people? Were you part of the cringe culture back then? Did you just watch it? How did you move on after it lost its meaning and impact? Indulge me, I'm curious.

The below post gets a bit ranty in the second half btw:
For reference on my perspective: I was a young-to-mid teen back when it gained prominence. I feel like it messed with me in multiple ways, both consciously and sub consciously. You know how it is 'you can't do this' or 'you can't do that' and 'you gotta stick to the looorrree'. Especially when it came to things like oc x canon or heaven forbid your character got labeled as a Mary Sue - because having non-serious fun characters is apparently a sin. We all know now that this mentality is... misguided at best right? And yet I still keep accidentally checking myself. I'm bloody 21-nearing-22 years old and yet I'm still haunted by it.
Like, if I make something mega self-indulgent (mostly shipping stuff), I can't help but really hate it afterwards (post-indulgence clarity?) and I'll think things like, "why did I make that? What it wrong with me?" or "Why did I think this was a good idea?" How do people move on from that? Only recently I'm trying an oc x canon ship but I never directly stated it as so because I found it extremely embarrassing (even though my oc is fully fleshed out and exists outside of the relationship). Keep in mind it doesn't matter if it's SFW or NSFW - it's still extremely awkward to me. It's so hard to express myself in that sort of way that I'm kinda jealous of the people that can without a second thought. And I honestly think It stemmed from how people harshly judged others for having some fun. Maybe I internalized some of that toxicity, and I can't really overcome it. Every step I take, I end up taking it back retreating into my shell again and pretend it never happened.

Am I the only one who feels this way? I hope this doesn't come off as too weird from me - but I'm not sure how to address it otherwise.

Hey Everyone!
Posted 3 years agoHey! I just realized the last journal I made was literally 2 years ago. Time to change that up. I did get rid of the old ones (an astounding two of them) for a fresh start.
-
Could I have some profile advise? Like with text alignment and coloring and stuff. Maybe a few suggestions on what I could actually put onto my profile?
-
Also looking to do some little art trades in between commissions too. (my commissions are basically always open too - it might just take me a bit to summon the elusive eldritch willpower to finish them - with how my personal life is going I'm going to try and be more consistent)
