Modestycore is finally released!!
Not super sure how I feel about it being released, you know I always feel sad about finishing a video but it is a good thing that it is out in the world and not trotting around in my brain for infinity. I'm gonna take a few days to process.It's ok to be sad! I just gave birth to an 18-minute...
Sneak peak of modestycore!!
First couple of scenes of the video before there is a large tonal shift. The full video should hopefully be out this weekend ahhhhhhhhh
need...a break from modestycore
I just filmed again today. This is actually the most filming I've ever done for a video because everything has to be filmed twice but can't be filmed on the same day. The looks above are an ode to trashycore. How beautiful it is that technology exists to make thigh-high socks stick to your t...
Modestycore update
I'm going to try and film some of my hardest and final scenes this week ahhhh!! I finally figured out how to make my head look realistically severed from my body thank G-D! It only took a custom-made pillow and green screen suit. I also think I figured out what kind of makeup goes better with th...
Just had one of my biggest brain explosions to date
Level one: monsters are mythology created to make sense of the unknown and “the other”.Level two: Monster girls are a fantasy of a beautiful creature that is tamed, and dangerous but ours.Level three: Monster girls present a universe in which cancer, mutations, and limitations of the body are lo...
what are some interesting reasons a fracking heiress would you invite you to her office at the powerplant?
I think I might have found a framing device to shape my headless woman character. The video opens with the audience being brought to her office. The factory is dismal and cold but her office is very feminine and aesthetic. She asks you a question about why you have been brought in, she's very bo...
had to meditate mid applying eyeliner
I am dragging my tail. For some reason, the filming of my modestycore video has been hard on me emotionally. The other day I set everything up for filming and spent an hour fixing and redoing my eyeliner, which frustrated me. I literally had to sit on the floor and do a 19-minute meditation to relax...
brain explosion mining day
Usually, it's unsafe to look for landmines but have you ever heard of landmine sniffing rats? I'm not one of them but I'm pretty sure I get the basics. Today, I am smoking weed, reviewing my modestycore script, and trying to get myself artistically pumped to film a new video! Sniffing do...
MY NUNC VIDEO IS DONEEEEE!
Check it out 🐀P.s I bought a blue version of the pink top because I loved it so much (on sale!) I'll post pics of it soon. Hope everyone's having a nuncish weekend :p-Your accomplished rat
screenshot from the vid I'm working on
I am NOT sure what is happening but I seem to be making a small video about Nuncs. Nuncs are nerds that have nothing to do with nerd culture. Nerds are dead, long live nuncs! I feel the same magic making this video as I did the snoring man video. It's small, absurd and me just playing around.May...
short haired rat
some people say that rats shouldn't be allowed into barber shops but I reply "my furs getting too long and it's covering my eyes pls help!" This usually gets me in. Once they realize how clean and well behaved I am it's usually safe to pull out my baggie of kibble.I filmed someth...
What do you think about modesty?
I want to know your thoughts! Because this is kind of a personal topic AND because I know your answers might be coded by being public on my Patreon, I set up this anonymous link. I can't see who wrote each post and I can't reply. Your answer will expire in 3 days! Feel free to be as honest a...
Tiny Scrump vid is DROPPED
literally...I dropped it and it's scurrying away. Spend some time getting to know Tiny Scrumps and the size-based politics of scrump runts. P.S If you just signed up for my patreon, I didn't have time to put you in the credits but you will be in the next vid promise!Already deep into a big s...
Last chance to send me drawing prompts!!
I have only gotten like 20 requests and am almost finished all of them. I'm too good at this muahahhaha, hurry up and claim ur birthrights!Here's what you need to do. Send me a message on Patreon saying the following:1) What you would like me to draw, it should be of a single subject. Exampl...
Your presents
After being buried in my sawdust for a few weeks, I am emerging with an idea of how to celebrate my goal of reaching 100 patrons, and a new scrump runt video coming soon. A few weeks ago I posted that I wanted to gift everyone something small to show my gratitude. I know this is kind of crazy but I ...
Apparently you all deserve presents!
Ok so, 2 ish years ago when I started Patreon I made a pledge that I would mail something cute to everybody once I got 100 patrons and i've reached that goal, wild! I want to mail you all something unique and special so give me some time to formulate a plan. eeek!I am almost done by scrump runt ...
princess rat
I have a pretty shirt argh!!!! It's so pretty it kind of makes me mad, like how can I ever buy a cuter garment. I think this could be a solid base component of a costume or character but have no leads at the moment. All I know is it's got a lovely theatrical component to it and fits well. An...
Moth Video is officially released!
Now I must begin the hellish act of peddling my wares in every corner of the internet to get this puppy seen. Have a great weekend everyone!-officially released rat (jk she's still in the cage)
Pre release of moth girl video!!
FINALLY I HAVE MOTH TO SHOW YOU! Here is the full video without the credits and patron shoutouts at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K4NKNVmpv8I'm hoping to have all those things finished and ready for this weekend. I'm excited for people to see this video! It's a little differe...
The amateur scientist
I don't know why I keep making cottagecore villains but it literally just comes out of me. Maybe it's because I sincerely covet the aesthetic and tendencies. Here is Elaine, the moth girl's foil, and yes she LOVES sunscreen! I've been shooting for days with both character's and n...
mothcore
sneak peak of my video so far!Something about this project makes me want to make 2 minute videos with separate moth related vignettes. I'm not sure, i'm gonna decide this once all the scenes are shot. Lemme know what you think of it so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8q1HF40O0RcI want t...
I have a victory to report
Firstly, please admire this edit I did to an old 1940s pinup photo. I'm going to use this faked image to add historical background to my moth vid. Secondly!! I travelled very far to see my distant family friend and get lessons on how to sing in farsi! If you will recall, I was obsessed with this...
moth goddess skirt!
muahhahahahahahhaaI found a mothy skirt that I might replace my old costume skirt with. I may change the underwear bottoms because they look a little pedestrian and non purposeful. Gonna do a moth photoshoot soon since Shmoo was the highest voted when I asked which character should have a pinup! I h...
moth dot com
I just learned about the magic art of felting and made a moth! I tried to give her the same patterning and colour-way of my costume. I am going to use her for my video but I might also make a more humanoid version of her too. To be honest, and I always want to be honest with you, my rat attendants, ...
finally had a brain explosion
ARGH, thank you g-d, thank you g-d, thank you!!!Yes that's right it happened, although there was an aha moment and click, to give myself some credit, I had been crafting themes for a few weeks. HOWEVER, I'm not totally in the clear, I need a funny and interesting script, I need to finish my ...
fresh moth off the production line
Ok I have spent the past two weeks cleaning up, redoing or changing the design of my moth girl cosplay.Headpiece: I added a delicate mothy feather to the antenna, took out the plastic eyeball pieces and made a bug eye with clay and sewed it on.Wings: I doubled the size of the wings, decided to hand ...
Moths have feet too
just very tiny furry feet.Which boots should I transform into insect legs? The black boots that are shiny and kinda of look like insect legs but are actually falling apart and I already threw them in the trash? Or the white boots that are a little scuffed but go really well with the colour pallet of...
invasive moth species
I have decided to revisit Shmoo the moth girl and make a new video with her! While i'm costuming I figure I will do a little moth pin up photoshoot eek! Few things I need to figure out are revisions to the costume, firstly it's kind of a poorly made costume. Aesthetically it hits all the imp...
Yee olde video is up!
I just had a caffeinated tea and am HYPER, peddling my wares to all the corners of the internet. I'm going to try this on tik tok and see if the gen Z'ers will accept me. I'm hearing rumours that tumblr is making a comeback? Who has heard anything about this?-too hype to type rat
Almost done my romance video about a cartoon snoring man
This video feels very me without filter and I and i'm pumped about it!! I literally have no idea how i'm going to "market" this video or pitch it to people, or what youtube tags i'm gonna use. Maybe that means it's so pure it can't be categorized. I do kind of give a demo...
