He wanted as much detail as possible, and I’m sure the tattoo artist with modify as needed, plus I have different versions just in case.
It’s not completely done as I’m waiting to afford a new iPad
Just wanted to share lol
I started digital art around the end of 2019
Just some artwork I made using the technique of sacred geometry (draw the circles and derive something from them)
If this doesn’t belong I sorry lol
(Also sorry if linework is shit, son likes to get up in my grill when I’m inking lmao)
Don’t really have a title for it lmao
Remember hunting him in LR a few years ago, came back and am doing the Village HR to upgrade his weapon and his little tail swipe he does always connects, I can’t see a way to position out of it besides just taking the hit through a block (SnS Stiker)
He’s psyching me out and making me anxious about the rest of the monsters later on lmao he hasn’t carted me and I’ve killed him four times, but it’s getting annoying when that’s the move that consistently connects (sometimes his tail slams hit too, which confounds me when they do)
Used to play Valor GS a bit too but this dude has done so much psychic damage to me that I’m getting intimidated from even trying a different weapon lmao I shall “git gud” in the mean time, mad cuz bad yada yada
Was weapon swapping while avoiding attacks from the enraged form (was orange/warm colored) but kept getting charge blades, when it got exhausted and transformed (was now grey and ash colored) I swapped to the weapon I sketched, which gave me the impression of a Sword and Shield variant as that’s the weapon I typically main in the games. Using it initially, one handed, was unwieldy and the hits wouldn’t connect satisfyingly. When I held it like the ‘wieldy’ sketch I actually started doing “damage.”
The arena went from a warm tone to a cooler purple tone. Hadn’t played the games in a bit, but played a few hours when my brother would for a week then stopped.
Decided to draw it out today from memory, inked it on my lunch/ last 15 min break at work
Thank you for reading!
Worked on this a few months ago but been thinking about revisiting it. Miss my iPad with the Gen2 Apple Pen (broken af), have been using my wife’s iPad for about a year now which only has the gen1 pen, so no pressure sensitivity 😩

Been feeling overwhelmed with the idea/insight of ‘inner peace’ and things of a spiritual nature while dealing with the pressures of everyday life (bills, family, job market).
Knowing that inner peace starts and is within, but having the responsibility to provide and such but not having that drive or motivation to do so in the conventional way. I’m an artist/autodidact (study psychology, mythology, religions, cultures, and symbolism) and would love to provide for my family through that, but staying consistent with it (marketing and what not) seems out of reach with trying to get a 9-5 to pay expenses on top of spending quality time with my family.
There is an unbearable tension sitting between worlds I feel like a lot of people don’t really touch upon that causes a kind of cognitive dissonance that makes it hard to focus on any one thing, if that makes sense.
It’s difficult to change or alter beliefs when no “”clear”” answer presents itself and everything causes some kind of discontent (minus family time ofc). Perhaps I’m still wading through the journey to sacrificing myself, time-wise, and taking up that responsibility that is calling me. Or perhaps I just need to really learn how to find peace even within this “state” of being.
Self doubt is a helluva thing.
Sorry if this doesn’t belong here, but figure it’s worth sharing. Thank you.
Struggle on.
Hi everyone, I don’t know if this is the best place to ask for advice, but I could use some pointers at least.
I moved my wife and kid(s, another one due in July) to a different state to be closer to her family and thought I’d find a job that paid similar to what I was getting before we moved but no luck. Our car situation and babysitting is causing scheduling issues.
I’ve worked as a shift lead, acting assistant manager basically, in retail (had customers that came regularly due to me), and as an administrator’s assistant in a nursing home that specialized in brain injury/related stuff.
I’m currently getting enrolled in college for a major in psychology, but I’m trying to find a remote job that can provide stable income while allowing me to support my family at home and reduce the burden on my wife. She found a job that pays $16 an hour, but I haven’t heard back from anyone despite 100’s of applications. We have savings built up luckily lol
I’ve never really tried applying for remote jobs, and I’m not necessarily looking for “get rich quick” remote work, just a realistic entry-level or transitional roles that actually hire and provide training.
If anyone has advice on entry-level remote roles that are actually hiring right now, companies that train and onboard beginners, or how to better position my experience for remote work, I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance and for reading. Struggle on.
Made this after getting some grid paper and using my compass to draw a few circles and outlined the stuff that stuck out to me.
Still struggling to find a job (100’s of applications sent out, nothing back yet) and trying to adjust to the new state I moved to.
Sometimes it’s hard grappling with the idea that I have to break out of the shell I’ve adjourned myself with, been wrestling with the idea of being less “selfish” in the sense of doing things I automatically don’t want to do. Examples like helping my FIL fix up a car he got for us (I’m not a car guy lol), or just being more “useful” in the ‘service to community’ sense.
I’ve realized quite a bit ago that I have this urge to be helpless, or just not want to do things, that causes a conflict in me because it’s not really helping me. It makes me feel stuck, but the growth is hard. It’s easy to just not, if that makes sense. Reading ‘Man and His Symbols’ and the journey from the “Trickster” to the “Hare” is something I realize I am currently going through and bouncing back and forth between.
Maybe introspection is what enlightenment really is, once you reached a certain level of it that’s when you’ve become enlightened. Applying it seems to be a whole different manner altogether and a rough one at that, in my experience. I dunno, after I finished coloring this and really looked it over I started pondering about all this a lot more and really examining myself.
Thank you for reading through my ramble :) and sorry if this isn’t exactly the right space to share it.
Struggle on
