Quick question:
Do all of your edits contain the ᴎ? (Stricken through backwards N)
If not, what type of edits usually do not contain it?
Also, when did you start putting it into your edits?
I've been using that signature since 2014, at least! At first just as a regular signature on the corner of my drawings. I only started hiding in edits around 2018! It was partly so that people couldn't crop it out if they wanted to steal my work, but it also became a little game with my followers.
(For those not aware, here's what my signature looks like on a few edits!)

I will very occasionally forget to sign something, but this mostly happened in older pieces. Now I always have someone on stream to remind me if I forget! If you think you can't find it, it's because I know people look for it, so sometimes I'm really sneaky about it to mess with you ;)
Edit: Also sometimes my commission work won't have a signature! It depends on the project :)

Lot 7: Mexican Reliquary.
Silver gilt and jade, with glass dome containing a human tongue. 17th-18th century. 18½ inches.
"Once her husband was by her side, she bid the men in the crowd to kill and feast upon the viscount, which they did, leaving nothing but his tongue."
This is one of the illustrations I made for the Dagon Collection book, with a little extract from the story written by the fantastic Silvia Moreno-García!
You can get the book here:

Thank you @deathofdelta for your input in the comments. I didn't know this was such a big problem, this explains why it took so long to fix.

Stuck in traffic. Apparently someone ran over a protected species. Can't they just clear this thing out of the road?

Lot 22: Harpoon.
"Holmes mounted the harpoon upon a long bone detached from one of the dead, and he held it tight in his hands. He prayed to the deepest and oldest gods of the sea, those who listen only to sailors and castaways, that he might survive the night."
This was another of the illustrations I made for the Dagon Collection book, with an extract from the attached story by Kali Wallace!

I mean why do you have to find what I'm not desensitized to
Oh, that would be because I've seen all your nightmares! ^_^
Why do you keep having that one about your pants, by the way?

MRH typically begins with vague sensations like itching in the palate. It is usually discovered when it begins rapidly growing, causing unbearable pain to the patient. At this point, it is often too late to remove the underlying tumor before it causes blindness or death.
Death is not caused directly by the teeth, but by the bacteria they carry from the mouth causing an infection, or by perforating vital arteries that carry blood to the brain.

Malignant Radicular Hypertrophy (MRH) is a life-threatening syndrome where teeth roots grow uncontrollably, destroying facial bones, eyes, and ultimately penetrating the cranial cavity.
MRH is paraneoplastic, caused by a small pituitary tumor that releases growth factors responsible for dental growth.

And if I have my way with it, you'll never leave that phase!

Lot 6: Indonesian Statue of Unknown Deity.
"In his journals, Moertono described the statue as "hideous" and "shapeless" and "malformed," indicating it was but a deeply-imperfect attempt at capturing something else, some shape beyond the mastery of human hands or human eyes."
This is one of the illustrations I made for the Dagon Collection book, along with an extract from the accompanying story, written by Nadia Bulkin! You can get the book here:

Argillosis is a rare autoimmune disorder. The soft tissues of those affected degenerate through saponification, progressively rendering them into a malleable texture similar to clay.
It ultimately leads to infectious complications that may become fatal.

You FOOLS! There's nothing edited into this picture, I only darkened the doorway! Hope you had a good April 1st! ;)
Still very cool to see how this freaked some people out nonetheless. The real horror was within you all along!

The House on Ninth Street became the topic of many ghost stories over the years after a series of tragedies befell its owners.
This photo was taken during a 1934 police inspection of the property. The figure in the photograph has baffled experts and remains a mystery to this day.
