Lions! Dancing!
Idk why but i really got into lion dance this week. Well, okay, it was Chinese New Year season, and this year is my birth animal's turn. anyway, this year I decided to make a Mefi post about it as well. If you're interested in the Chinese lion dance and the way Malaysians have done it, check it out.
unrelatedly I also received a new bottle of ink (Pelikan's Edelstein) from a friend, and I haven't sketched anything in months. So:

It's a little janky, but that's what happens you sketch freehand, as always! I did lose steam when it came to the body, but yeah i recovered it by shading it in, and detailing the fur trim. not too bad, considering i literally had no idea where i wanted the legs to be.
Anyway, in other parts of my attention deficit life, getting back into my languages:

i actually signed up for italki for language partners, but i just can't find time/concentration to actually do tht. lol.
