I’m on vacation, and all I can think about is what if the lads were kissing…on the beach?????
My OCs Jules and Galen kissing on a beach. Jules is a young man with black hair wearing a 90s windbreaker outfit, and is sitting on a ledge. Galen is a trans man with long brown hair streaked with silver in a braid, and has a hoodie tied up around his waist. He is leaning against the ledge and kissing Jules. The colors are vibrant and tropical

Exictor is Lucas's maker, his vampire sire. He is my oldest vampire that is still around, about to hit a millenia. He is a serious master of the sword but isn't one to stick around and socialize.
I will be touching on Rita and Exictor's history together in my next chapter.

If you like Studio Ghibli, Knives Out, The Owl House, or Frankenstein, here’s what the creators are saying about A/I.

🚫 SAY NO TO GEN A/I 🚫
"Whoever creates this stuff has no idea what pain is. [...] I never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself. - Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli was "utterly disgusted" when he was shown an A/I demo in 2016 Yeah, f*** A/I. It's something that's making everything worse in every single way - I don't get it. I mean, I get it in a 'This makes sense to save money by not paying artists' way? But then, what the f*** are we doing? Is this where we want to be?" RIAN JOHNSON ON THE USE OF A/I Hollywood Dana Terrace Unsubscribe from Disney+, Pirate Owl House. I don't care.

One character has white rainbow hued hair and celestial looking skin while the other wears a lavender suit, has dark hair with white streaks. The text reads: UPDATE!

I keep forgetting to post this but MY BABY. MY BOY. GAH. HE'S SO CUTE.

Ahem. Anyway. A little outfit ref of Lukas, for an event I'm hosting 😌 (which is in beta rn lol more on that later/in February probably)

#BurakkuArt #SkyOC #DigitalArt #OC
Full body drawing of BurakkuHardt's original character Lukas from story project "Hangman's Crew" wearing a light blue Virgin Killer sweater, with heart shaped boob window, white thigh high socks, pink arm warmers and matching leg warmers, white and pink boots, and hair very loosely tied at the ends into a casual ponytail, with two pink hair clips on his bangs. Beside the fully rendered drawing is the sketch version; a pink sketch filled in with white.

It doesn't help when family and old friends go silent when I bring up my art/comic in any small way.

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.

You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

Reasons I love my comic:
-My lead character is a fem man. He's allowed to be a valiant hero and his feminine traits aren't treated as a joke
-He has other fem friends who aren't catty and they get to be pretty together
-His love interest adores him even in altered forms

Picke is such a punk and a scary one at that, being a vampire that stands almost 7 feet tall. He thrives on heavy metal and football, but is secretly a pretty good wall artist.

An agent’s guide to Stargazer by Natasha DeHere. An Adult Urban Fantasy Stand Alone with Series Potential Themes: The Corrupting Influence of Power, Ancestral Grief, Fate vs. Free Will, Self-Discovery, Identity and Trauma, The Futility of War, Human Hubris vs. Nature’s Power, Sacrifice and Breaking Cycles In the midst of a centuries-long war, elven Princess Ellery is stripped of her crown and sent on a rite of passage to earn it back within one year and one day. This is the perfect opportunity for her to see the human world. With her former crownguard and a book on human behavior as her guide, Ellery sets off. The only thing she didn't account for was the chaos that is the New York City subway system. Ellery’s situation goes from bad to worse when she discovers someone has sealed the portals. All of them. Sick of living hidden on Earth under constant threat from human discovery, The Cult of the Sevenstar seek to collapse the barrier that separates the two worlds permanently. Lost in an unfamiliar world, Ellery must put her trust in an alluring vampire and the ghost of a unicorn to help find her way back home. I raise this rally cry for all fellow non-humans around the world. It is time those of Gaean blood stopped passively allowing our human oppressors to defile our heritage. For too long we have lived in fear. We must not allow our magic to atrophy further. We shall bring back true magic to Terra. We will use force if necessary. Look for the signs. Await further instructions.

Was literally just telling my friend I’ll have to be content until I have proper references for the creature - but I couldn’t stop myself. Guillermo Del Toros interpretation of the creature just - man. He fucked me up. Guillermo I need you to stop doing this to me. Anyway, creature.
