Admin Post: Community Check-In for May 2023

[goss]

Today's the last day of May, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in May, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming art challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

Reminder: A Round-Up for the MerMay 2023 Challenge will be posted tonight, and a new monthly challenge will be issued later this week. :)

Where has May gone? I‘ve joined a challenge (art will be posted next month) in the DMBJ fandom and was inspired by an animal tranformation plotbunny which led to two art pieces with my very first small dog in watercolour (I've previously done only one canine:a half-wolf from Due South fandom)

A Kun and dog! Wu Xie

the same concept in the woods and in colour

And this week is Pingpang week in DMBJ fandom, so I did an entry for that as well:

My Hero (Zhang Qiling being kissed on a motorcycle).

This one was a challenge because I tried to render leather textures in watercolour for the first time.
Basically I‘ve been too busy for Mermay :-( I might work on an entry this weekend)

The tiny doggo is the CUTEST and has the fluffiest fur - I love how detailed it is! ♡ And the leather looks great!
