Thu, 22 Oct 2026 04:03:46 +0000

Once this is uploaded it's going to be tomorrow, but yesterday (October 21st), was my 25th birthday! In this Clowntober speed-draw compilation, I cover the prompts Black Cat, Tie Dye, and Corset.

Clownntober Day 15 (Horns)

This was another piece that took a 2nd attempt to complete, but it was worth it.

Clownntober Days 13 and 14 (Skull and Electric)

Thu, 15 Oct 2026 16:43:49 +0000

Days 13 and 14 of AssortedA's Clowntober challenge on Instagram. For day 13, Skull, I drew an old OC named DeVonté in this pierrot/sad clown costume with the skull, doing the "To Be or Not To Be" pose, which is cliché, but obvious, especially since I said that DeVonté is a former theater kid and used to love Shakespeare. For day 14, Electric, this is my first attempt at drawing this clown named Surge, who I eventually want to use again for the athlete clown quadrant piece I mentioned before. Here he's plugged a cord from his laptop into his head, and he's getting electrocuted (inspired by a logo mentioned in the video)

Clowntober Day 10-12 (Crown, Playing Cards, and Wings)

Thu, 15 Oct 2026 16:19:17 +0000

Days 10, 11, and 12 of AssortedA's Clowntober challenge were Crown, Playing Cards, and Wings. No talking on this one, because my voice-over sounded so depressing.

For Crown, I have King Jodeci and Queen Saowanee (Jodeci is named after the R&B group, Saowanee's name is Thai and means "greetings from the Thai queen". They are Effie's/the harp player's parents, and likely aren't REAL royalty.), For Playing Cards, I drew my clown and card-themed rap group, Jokurr, who's designs are still in progress, and I have to make a breakdown video about them soon. For Wings, this was my attempt at drawing this basketball playing clown I concepted for the athlete quadrant I plan to make like the musicians' from before.

Clowntober: Day 6- Musical Instrument (check description)

Sun, 11 Oct 2026 20:41:29 +0000

Apologies for the captions in the video not matching with what I say, and my bad microphone. I don't know what's going wrong, I check the video over and over as I edit, so it shouldn't even be giving me this much trouble.

Day 6 of assorteda's Clowntober challenge was Musical Instrument. Here we have my musician clowns just kind of posing with their instruments. Kadai with her keyboard, Effervescence with her harp (I tried), Larenz with his cornet, and JaMyron with one of his drums and his sticks.

Clowntober! Days 1-3 (Shoes, Paper and Nightlight)

Sat, 03 Oct 2026 21:49:25 +0000

I got issues with the way all the platforms I upload to are operating right now, but I don't have much elsewhere to go.

Here are my first 3 illustrations for AssortedA's Clowntober prompts on Instagram. I'm honestly not in a good mood, but I still wanted to get this out on time. I'll be doing these speed-drawing videos maybe 2 or 3 prompts at a time, and some may be singular, depends on the piece and how long I worked on it, and how much I have to say. Apologies if this first edition was kind of awkward. I also touched on why I deleted my old Clowntober drawings from 2024 (and a little after)...even though I forgot to say it's because my scripts were jumbled, too. Every 5 seconds I had to fix something.

Redrawing Old OCs/Cartoon Concept- SK8 U!

Sat, 15 Aug 2026 23:19:21 +0000

This video was supposed to get made last month, but I finally got around to finalizing everything this week. This video is about an old cartoon concept I had from back when I was in middle school (2013-2015), called SK8 U! A show about a diverse group of kids in Philly who love to hang out and skateboard together. I give a run-down on my old ideas, and show some of the characters old artwork (you can see a full comparison on their old looks vs. new designs on my deviantart). https://www.deviantart.com/dia....mndz1021/art/SK8-U-v

(side note, in the video when I mention the characters' ethnicities, they're not from the country of their ethnic origin, like if I say someone is Kenyan, that's just their ethnic background, but they're all from Philly)

I will be adding these characters to my Unvale page soon, so you can find more about each of them. (although there's even more OCs I have yet to add all together) https://unvale.io/diamndz1021 Stay tuned.

Create This Book- Nostalgia/Vh1 Soul (draw with me!)

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 20:20:21 +0000

I mean, with all of these videos I encourage you to draw along with me, but I figure this one especially fits with the music added in.

This is another completed spread from the first Create This Book by Moriah Elizabeth, this prompt being to create nostalgia. I did a few nostalgic things on different page spreads in the book, but I chose to depict a channel that unfortunately doesn't exist anymore, Vh1 Soul. I talked for maybe half the video about the channel, and I leave the rest with music playing.

Sidenote: Apparently you can see the man's head in the Soul Player bumper

All music used in this video were produced by MetzMusic:
