Well done!
I love pieces where people are just chilling with skeletons.
I'm glad to see someone else thought to mention the Create mod when faced with this question, however, one must also mention the addon mod Create: Interactive, it would in theory allow you to create a self-perpetuating giant train base that drills its path forward, creates more rail in a built in production line with the drilled stone and deploys it automatically. Let's not forget the one addon specifically made to expand the train system as well. 
Thank you.
Since getting my first tablet back in 2020 I always used Krita, initially on principle as to not even dignify adobe photoshop with a pirated installation, but I learned over time to appreciate Krita for what it offers.
Krita is free to download, open source and frequently updated with new features. It might not have the fanciest functions of photoshop but it has parity with all the functions that matter for digital illustration. As a plus it even has basic animation tools if you wish to have fun with those.
Compared to SAI I would say it is an objective improvement, compared to photoshop I would say it is much more user friendly, sadly I never tried GIMP so I can't compare it.

~~Does color theory count?~~
I started drawing digitally some years ago, but my rate of improvement was quite slow, and at one point I quit trying to draw for an entire year due to frustration with my inability to pick up coloring in a single week. What I drew here is by no means top-class, but when I started I never imagined being good enough for even this.
I wish to keep improving this skill forever, but alas, drawing Lenins will not put food on the table. Although I wonder if one day I'll be skilled enough for my drawings to actually do that.
By the way, I wish to rant about outlines for a bit. When I started drawing I initially attempted to replicate an anime-ish style, however, what always stood in the way is the "lineart phase" after the sketch phase. I was never able to get it right, and I always thought it was a waste of time anyway because the sketch itself always looked much more lively, not just that, BUT OUTLINES DON'T EXIST IN REAL LIFE! But hey, at least now I can draw anime girls too, I guess.
Dreams that many had and we must continue to have in their stead.

Celebrating 200 Years Since the Revolution

Drew this one in November last year, I barely learned how to put color on the digital canvas and I attempted to draw architecture for the first time, the result is asymmetrical, a little off balance, and lacking in detail, but I am still proud of it.
I personally find that the most tragic thing about the internet is how if you looked at the way it was made you'd almost think it was the product of a socialist state. It is a product of intensive collaboration between different researchers, fully subsidized by the state every step of the way and the end result effectively given away for free to the public. Now it is rendered a wasteland, carved up and privatized, and with LLMs and image generators it can only get worse as everything gets filled up with computer generated slop.
However, let's take a moment to think about how much good such technology could do if it was subservient to the needs of a socialist state, search engines that actually give you what you want, central planning networks with unparalleled efficiency, social media that prevents the reproduction of reactionary thought, a free, fully organized and easy to access centralized digital library of all academic resources. I can't help but be hopeful for whatever society comes out of this capitalist hell.
