Contrary to 2024, which I painted quite a lot, this year was rather different.

It's the time of the year, to share my top 5 favorite albums of 2025, meaning, only albums released in 2025.

I've been meaning to paint something on the newest Procreate release, the one that comes with all the new brushes, and I finally managed to do so last night.

NEMOPHILA's 開花宣言 official music video is here and it's awesome!

This MCC's live album is really nice!

I was playing around with Procreate 5.4, and decided to test something on HEAVYPAINT, more specifically color jitter, and I totally forgot how awesome this app is!

Roxy's portrait Painted with Rebelle 8.

NEMOPHILA debuted this single earlier this year during their 4 hours show, but only last Sunday it was released as a proper single and properly produced.

If you are reading this blog post via your browser of choice, you might notice that things are a bit different here.

A Matter of Life and Death, or simply AMOLAD.

I actually really enjoyed Thurnderbolts*!

Winter sky is the best!

いい天気だよ 先日は散歩！

When learning Japanese (or any other language), immersion makes a huge difference.

I was living under a rock, because I totally missed the note about Rebelle 8's early access being today!

My dad planted a few coffee trees the other day, and they are growing already!

The amount of amazing content you can find about entertainment design and concept art on Feng Zhu's YT channel is surreal!

New SEIKIMA-II album was released a week or two ago.

Long time no post.

NEMOPHILAは好きなバンドの一つだよ！

Ah man, I had more expectations about Captain America: Brave New World.

A portrait study.

Slowly trying to get back to a few things I like the most, such as painting.

A little over a month ago, on a Sunday morning, I left Okayama for Takamatsu, the capital of Kagawa, the smallest prefecture in Japan which is located in Shikoku, the smallest island of Japan's 4 main islands.

Há pouco mais de 1 mês atrás, numa manhã de domingo, eu partia de Okayama para Takamatsu, a capital de Kagawa, a menor província do Japão que fica localizada em Shikoku, a menor ilha das 4 principais do Japão.

Tobias Forge's Pre-Ghost work is amazing!

Not that I didn't like the previous Ghost release (Impera), but Skeletá seems to be more of my jam.

After Kanazawa and Shirakawa-go, I didn't have anything planned, I just knew that I still had a few more days in Japan.

Após Kanazawa e Shirakawa-go, eu não tinha nada programado, apenas sabia que tinha ainda mais alguns dias no Japão.

One of the reasons I spent a few days in Kanazawa was its proximity to Shirakawa-go, about 1h30min away by bus.

Um dos motivos que me fizeram passar uns dias em Kanazawa foi a sua proximidade com Shirakawa-go, mais ou menos 1h30min de ônibus de distância.

It's been a week now since I came back to Brazil from my trip to Japan, and while it's nice to be back close to my family, I miss Japan... 😅 I can't wait to go back!

Really good!

It's hard to keep up with the pace of posts here amidst the rush of travel, but today, back in Brazil, I'm going to talk a little about Kanazawa.

Difícil manter o ritmo das postagens aqui em meio a correria da viagem, mas hoje, de volta ao Brasil, vou falar um pouco sobre Kanazawa.

Faz um certo tempo que não mais escrevo por aqui.

⚠️ WARNING: This post contains LOTS of photos (and some videos too).

A little over a year after seeing NEMOPHILA live for the first time at Nippon Budokan, I had the opportunity to see them perform again, this time in Hiroshima.

⚠️ AVISO: essa postagem contém MUITAS fotos (e alguns videos também).

Pouco mais de 1 ano depois de ter visto NEMOPHILA ao vivo, pela primeira vez, no Nippon Budokan, tive novamente a oportunidade de ver um show delas, dessa vez em Hiroshima.
