Day 70 of #The100DayProject Have you ever had to run to catch a #connect? #PastInktober 26/2021 #FountainPen #WaterColour #GansaiTambi #Midori #MastoArt #InkyParker51

@jezlyn So pretty 😍

@klizana I wanna try that too!

Doodlebud might have opened a Pandora's Box. On the bright side, this might be a way to use all the ink samples I have. Wish me luck 🤞 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YES39yVVoR8 #FountainPens #Ink

Hi Beige Party! I’m an artist from the San Francisco North Bay. Watercolors and sketch mediums are my tools for creating.

I’m looking forward to posting on this instance, I heard your moderation is stronger than other places and there are lots of creatives here.

The reason I like making those bag charms is because it’s a nice change from making animals. They’re a lot of fun and challenging in their own ways.
Right now, I would like Bag charms to keep the shape of objects or non-animal things. I’ve been racking my brain to find new design ideas, but so far, nothing. Any ideas or wishes?

I haven't seen this shitshow mentioned on Mastodon, so I am bringing it to your attention.

It seems that the #crowdfunding #publisher #Unbound has folded, leaving everyone else out of pocket – authors and pledgers alike.

The same two people who so mismanaged Unbound then set up a new publishing company, #Boundless, and "acquired" Unbound's IP, so they can continue to publish books without any obligation to pay their old company's debts. Authors and purchasers are thus left out of pocket.

I wonder what their next (perfectly legal, TYVM) venture will be called.
