Some Freyja warm-up's before I head off to work. Been brushing up on my anatomy and looking at some stuff I can learn/study from.
A series of gestural drawings of my OC, Freyja. Some fun studies to explore some posing.

Sherlock Hound is a gem. Hayao Miyazaki built an idea from an Italian studio into a brilliant adventure series.

It was a turning point in his career, and his last TV show. Behind it were clashing visions, young talent and lots of money, as we explore:

the pale fawn rises....

#art
A monstrous deer-like creature leaps out from dense fog. Its skin is flayed off its body and spread up and outwards like multiple outspread wings. Its flesh underneath is grotesque and unnatural, looking more like sinewy roots of a tree, and its hooves also end sharp twisted points. Its antlers are formed from strange twisted flesh atop its head, and speared on one of the points is the corpse of a man missing the bottom half of his body.

Here's my submission for the 2025 ToxicSoul Fanzine. I had a blast utilizing several different types of manga-style screentones to achieve the grey scale effect showcased here.
In this fan illustration of the artist/PNG-Tuber, ToxicSoul77, she's dressed up in 80's era punk fashion (which includes a fashionable black belt and a padded shoulder leather jacket), who's posing for the camera, while sporting a smug, toothy grin. Several little lost souls surround her, one of which is unfortunately squished between her large boulder shoulders. This illustration also uses various manga-style screen tones to achieve it's grey scale effect.

Wanted to re-draw an old Freyja pose I did sometime ago. It feels nice to be productive again.
In this illustration, my OC Freyja is flexing as she's looking off screen. The line art has a sketch-like quality to it, with a soft Gaussian Blur applied to make the line art look like an animation cel.

A group of sillies dungeon-dwelling. Wanted to do a quick warm up before I start on a new bunch of illustrations, along with posting art more frequently than I did last year.
A group of adventurers (The Dansome's Dhalia, my OC Freyja, and Weaponized Thickness's Nil) are exploring a dungeon, and in a very cartoony fashion, Freyja playfully slaps Dhalia's back for her finding the solution to the puzzle that had them stump'd. A continuation from the first panel, not knowing her own strength, Freyja becomes embarrassed as she knocks Dhalia to the ground and her leg sticks up mid-air, while while Nil looks with shock at what had transpired.

Seven Deadly sins - Greed
Tall floating figure made out of several layers of red cloth, being gripped by many golden hands with red cracks. They grasp a large golden stick. Their face is crowned by hands pointing in every direction. One of them covers their eye. They have pairs of different eyes stabbed through their face. Red eyes.

We all laughed, loved, cried, grieved, and survived a year that is supposedly doom and gloom. And yet, we managed to enjoy the fun the year had provided.

That's 2025 in a nutshell, and I hope things will be much more calmer in 2026. Happy New Year!
In this winter landscape that is in the dead of night and heavily snowing we see Gunhilda and Eschallot making a snowman in the shape of Gunhilda's puppy, Smali. Eschallot is holding a broom that will be added to the snow sculpture, while Gunhilda is putting on the finishing touches. Meanwhile, Freyja, Ragnar, and Smali are looking at the kids while taking in the calm, serene atmosphere. Same as before, but with no film grain filter. Same as before, but with no filters and digital tricks to make it look analogue. The raw Background artwork, as shown in all it's glory.

Wishing you all a kind and happy 2026 💚
ink drawing- a golden apple is passed between two angelic figures. On the left, one has her hands hovering above the apple and her wings are unfurled, leaving her face exposed. On the right another figure holds her hands outstretched below the apple. Her wings are covering her face. The apple is shining and gold.
