Monthly Summary: June 2025

Monthly Summary: June 2025

I think it's the month where all of my personal art posts are scans! Woah!

With the arrival of my second fountain pen, loaded with waterproof ink – I just can't stop using it hahah πŸ’¦

June has been a month with nothing but experiments! Analog tools are really fun, more people should use it! ^^ Digital drawing is still my go-to for main work and creations but sometimes looking at screen gets really tiring, doesn't it? A trusty pen and paper anywhere can get our creativity gears turn! πŸ’ͺ

This month's favourite creations? Hmmm:

  • Yumie back doodle (2504) and Pippa and fire spirits doodle (2505)
    (I just want to show my fountain pens off hahah)
  • Magical Girl ink lineart (2510)
    (The feeling I had when I inked this was really, really good!! Buttery smooth ink ftw!!)

I cannot stop raving about my pen + waterproof ink combo! It's one of life's tactile pleasure ☺️ hahah what am I even saying...

Everyone should pick a pen and a piece of paper, and draw something! Anything! A flower, a sun, a wiggly line – it's fun!

Besides drawing on paper, I also started another commission. I'll share them once the client has published it, so please wait for it – it's a really fun illustration, I promise! ✌️

Also: as a break time, I started outlining something! Blooming Chimes is still stuck and the co-writer I usually consult with for all of my VNs is currently really busy so I don't have anyone to discuss with πŸ˜” but! I have random ideas, and I'm putting bullet points down at the moment. Perhaps I can do something with it once I see the overall outline rounded and polished!

It's also related to this month's banner:

Yumi-chan!!!

I christened her name as Yumiel, but I think Yumi is a really cute nickname she can have. I wonder if anyone recognises her: she appeared briefly in Pippa and Your Phantasmal Problem as the grim reaper haha. I am currently building something around her; I think she's a very interesting character!

Thank you for reading!
