I've Been Hyperfixating On A Crafting Project For Three Days Now, And My Brain Is Bent Out Of Shape,

The Kitten is absolutely smitten!

(Text in ALT because my handwriting is not... writing)

The ✨️wrist thing✨️:

You captured this dummy drama vampire perfectly! 🦇🎀 Kudos to drawing two very fine hands, I was struggling with mine, haha!

Art trade with @purrlockswatson! Their original vampire character, London Pierce ♡

He's just a cutie, disaster kitten

VLAD, Orlok has to be one of the least hygienic beings on the planet, anything he endorsed is a menace to the public health. And nefarious braincell usage is ON. I'm imagining the tapioca is actually rat droppings, and now you all have to deal with that, too.

(Congratulations on drawing three humans à la fois, I had a crisis and went on a mad cat drawing spree when drawing mine)

Braincell has come full circle, everyone gets their favourite drink, and enough of it (poor Aiden, but at least yours is identifiable liquid!) Aiden's art and mine.

OK, @blackforrestpunk and @purrlockswatson . I got there in the end.

Aiden, sorry there probably isn't enough coffee.

Amanda, enjoy your Count Orlok endorsed boba tea.

Germs got me. The whole inside of my head, throat and chest feels inflamed. Like a vampurr who snorted garlic powder or something - I've lost my singular braincell, can't really be poetic.

Oh well, guilt-free bedrot and "Salem's Lot" audiobook. I'm not a fan of Stephen King, but vampire fiction is vampire fiction.

I'm not going to be up to much these days. I do have some weird drafts stored up, and if my brain comtinues to be so swollen, I might just post them.

For some reason I haven't been able to draw any cats lately. Catch me lurking around the house like a cryptid cosplaying a person.

I can't be bothered to update my meet the artist but I cut my own hair again and I can see my scalp for the first time. Yippee.

@blackforrestpunk made me do it.

(Enlarge image if you actually want to read it. Good luck, I have trouble with it myself)

Anyway, Aiden, why did you set a bad example by putting your height? I've been told I was tall all my life, and now I'm the smallest of the three of us (hi, Vlad). Got to invest in platform boots.

What to do with Santa when you summon him

(Justice for Vampire Teddy! Look at the poor little chap.)

Red isn't the colour for breaking and entering.

You expect us to know what to say to strangers?

Right, gang?

In answer to urgent questions, those are my ideas for a good summoning, I mean, Christmas party. Passing the mic to @blackforrestpunk and @vladimirsangel - I insist that I not be entirely culpable for this.

It started out as a chicken joke, and then Aiden decided it deserves a place in my printable Christmas Advent, so now it seems doomed to be a running gag. The lil summoners are as follows: batty ears is Aurik, Vlad's Nosferatu, masked cat is Aiden's Punk Erik and the dummy in the bowtie is my Pierce.

Vampurr necessities

Would YOU pass the vampire certification test?

My name is Amanda, and I listen to Taylor Swift, so I get to make these jokes. Zaida is a real name for a Victorian vampire-witch lady from Aylmer Vance and the Vampire.

As much as I adore gamourous vamp fashion, @vladimirsangel and I were talking about how we would be a danger to the public if we wore anything fancy. I would wreck a white tuxedo with vampiric speed, but at least it won't be a health hazard.

Remember when I talked about the good old-fashioned vampire-smiting method of sucking their gums? That's definitely what's going on here.

Also, Book Dracula and his Van Helsing:

In my defence, I have none. Very proud of how I drew Monster Dracula's face. Good bye.

What's the tea? (News!)

Good morrow!

Here, I get up to shenanigans with fellow artists, review and ramble, post my writing, crafts and PoTO art because reasons.

My main blogs:

Book/history blog: @purrlockholmesbooksblog

Main art blog: @purrlockholmesbooks

My Gothic literature fanfic Gothic Tales from Melancholia is on AO3

The illustrated t-shirt does exist.

What I welcome in my ask box:

-Art requests are always welcome! I mainly draw, but will also get (hand)crafty if you have good, or unhinged, ideas.

-Asks about drawings, writing, OCs and projects.

-Asks for opinions/reviews of books, films, etc. I love researching and jabbering about my findings.

-Personal questions that won't help any unsavoury individuals to find me in real life (i.e., by all means ask me about my existential crises, but not about my nationality).

The contents of a parcel has just been yeeted onto my desk, and half-finished Fluffy Erik was caught in the midst. He looks rightfully Unamused.

He's still missing a few buttons, boots and his trousers, but otherwise, I'm very proud of the little chap. I've made him three masks, and he'll model them for you soon.
