"I actually look cute?" (translation of what he says)
😂😂😂
Practice: Background drawing(mainly). Character design.
It was freaking hard to design a proper dress for him! 😂😂😭 The colors you know…
Sth is wrong with the shadows of the objects in the bg but whatever.
😕Is it a good idea to post my comic(s) here? It feels that my stuff might not be really welcome or sth… I suppose the language would be a problem for many people here to read some of my works… Or is it because of sth else(aside from my drawing/writing skills)?? 😂

I love these two kiddos. And I realise that the art actually looks fine, so I force myself to post these little comics here as well. 😂
And yes, AU concepts. That AU of mine, 渡鸦之翼(though this is more like a title…).
Dialogues are in Cantonese.

“Kin”
Two gremlin fetuses painted by me. The first is a mold of the gremlin fetus, or ‘bullet ball’ that was used on screen in Gremlins 2. I then used this as a base and sculpted stripe on top of it, smoothing out the texture of his skin, adding hair and changing the facial horns and expression.

some very important info re: paid accounts~
I am not a lawyer, but I can decently interpret legalese and, being as I also suffer from tl;dr syndrome and assume others may as well, I took one for the team and went through the updated TOS for the post+ accounts and highlighted (what I understand to be) the most pertinent information, which ultimately comes down to this:
You cannot monetize copyrighted works (aka charge and earn money from fanfic, fanworks, etc) and if you do decide to put your fanworks behind a paywall via Tumblr, when you are inevitably sued, Tumblr will not protect you and will not defend you and you alone, personally, will be responsible for whatever monetary damages said lawsuit results in.
If anyone is a lawyer and knows I've gotten any of this wrong, please do not hesitate to correct me/this post.
Screenshots taken from Tumblr's TOS (updated 7-21-21), Stripe's Account Agreement, and the post+ FAQs.
1. Your paid account will not be hosted by tumblr; it is routed through a 3rd party.
2. By signing up for a paid account, you're entering into an agreement with Stripe, so in addition to Tumblr's TOS, you are also bound to Stripe's TOS.
3. Stripe, like Tumblr, will not defend you or protect you against any lawsuits.
4. Furthermore, you may end up owing Stripe money (indemnify = compensate)
5. Tumblr's TOS specifically states that you can't put any content on your post+ account that violates any laws, including laws that protect intellectual property rights of others. This is super important, because Tumblr's post+ FAQ also states that you can post anything that you would regularly post on tumblr, which I'm sure many will take to mean that gifsets, fanworks, etc are fair game, since all of that stuff can be posted on tumblr now. However, the difference is, you're not making money from the fanworks you're posting or reblogging now. Once money enters the equation, the game changes.
Tumblr is making it seem like any and all content goes for post+ accounts, knowing 90% of this site is fanworks. This is not true and you'll be opening yourself up for lawsuits if you charge for fanworks.
6. Tumblr further disclaims any and all liability in any legal issues.
