happy pocky day #oc
Camille and Fiore looking into each other's eyes, the former a bit surprised and blushing. Neither of them seem to care about the Pocky stick breaking between them.

🥖🍫🧃⁉️🪑‼️

Wow! I don't usually remember to do these specific day drawing things - so!!! Yahoo!!!! 🤸✨ I've only got silly punchlines in me, though, but maybe tomorrow after work I'll buy some Pocky as a lil Sophie treat... 🥰💕

A picture of my OC Lyn (for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet). Lyn is smiling and looking off to the side, as someone calls to her from off the screen. She was looking at her phone, hand raised when someone calls out "Lyn! Lyn! Look!!" and she is saying, mid turn, "What is-". A picture of my OC Lyn (for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet). Lyn finishes her sentence which was "... it.". She looks 100% done with whatever she is looking at. A picture of Drayton (from Pokemon Scarlet/Violet). Drayton has five sticks of Pocky in his hair, and looking extremely pleased with himself. His hands are raised up in a "ta-da" gesture, and he's saying "I'm a "Pocky"-tera type!", "heheh!", "hahah" and "get it?" with several shittily drawn stars around him. I'm sure Lyn does Get it, unfortunately, and did find it a little bit funny. A picture of my OC Lyn (for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet) and Drayton (from Pokemon Scarlet/Violet). Lyn is munching grumpily on a Pocky stick somehow not delighted at eating a Pocky stick. Drayton is I assume smiling expectantly at Lyn with at least 10 Pocky sticks in his mouth. Above the two is "11/11!" but drawn as Pocky. Below that is some text that says "Pocky Day!" and "ポッキーの日!", as it is Pocky Day.

Meru!!
Beloved Blue Sea Dragoon
Fanart of Meru from the video game The Legend of Dragoon Meru is a humanoid with fair skin, blue hair and red eyes. She's dressed in a revealing costume, consisting of a dark blue bra with golden engravings, a similar collar, and a leather harness. She wears a blue loin-cloth with golden accents, with a large bow. She wears a pair of sandals with a pair of leg guards on her low legs. She holds a golden hammer behind her. Meru instilled a love of tiny femme characters, that swing around a big weapon.

Made a little expression sheet for my little ADHD menace, River 😸❤️

Fun fact: River was the first OC I ever created. She's with me since early 2007.
Coloured sketch sheet of nine different expression of my original character River. Her hair is red and open, with a few unruly strands

Sometimes you gotta thwack the bro after you heard him say the most egregious thing ever to factory reset his brain.

These four goobers all belong to my sis @meowytart.bsky.social !!!!! Get attacked!

A draw the squad type art piece. Damien, who is way in front, of the canvas stares off as he has a grin on his face and a blunt in his mouth looking confident. On top there is the caption with an arrow pointing to him stating “said something absolutely egregious”. Behind him, Sam expresses anger as he holds a chair that Ian is sitting at. Ian has a ‘giving up’ expression with the caption stating, ‘has accepted his fate’. Klaus looks up at the check in shock. The background is a heavily pixelated liminal space of a children’s playground.

most of you probably know me well already, but hi, i'm rae! it's nice to formally introduce & share a little bit more about myself.

i'm primarily a hobbyist fanartist, but i'm eager to improve artistically, all the same. happy to be here! 💛

[ #art #meettheartist ]
My digitally-drawn Meet The Artist. It includes a drawing of me--I have dark copper hair styled in a wavy long bob, blue eyes, and I've drawn myself wearing an orange cardigan (made by me!), a burgundy floral miniskirt, cream socks, caramel brogues, and glasses. Next to me is my tuxedo cat, Toby. Further details include pronouns (she/they), and the country I'm from (Canada). There's a list of things I love; RPGs, visual novels, farm sims, point & clicks, flowers, horror, hot drinks, alone time, cats, and Morty from Pokemon. A list of my favourite things includes colours (yellow, brown, ivory, green), flower (Black-eyed Susan), band (Marianas Trench), food (curry), and Pokemon (Sunflora & Sunkern). Hobbies listed include crochet, drawing, baking, gaming, and fashion.

If you see this, post your bird art! 🐥

#birds #art
A digital painting of a very small but round bird with long tail feathers. The ends of the tail feathers and head feathers look like they're emitting some kind of fire or illuminated smoke. The bird consists of muted purples, oranges, pinks and yellows with hints of a vibrant but deep blue. The smoke / fire is a neon teal/regular blue. The bird also wears a pair of tiny gold glasses. Its feet are iridescent, shimmering between pink and purple with the pink being dominant in this image. The talons are neon blue and glow.

I used to find drawing really frustrating before 2020. I had to stop putting myself under so much pressure if I ever wanted to continue making art.
Now I draw for fun and I absolutely love it!

Here's Hisaki's, if you missed it.
A 4-panel comic in which my character Hisaki meets his first draft version. Turns out, the angsty boy used to be a laid-back slacker type. In the comic, Current Hisaki tells his old self to fix his uniform and take a shower, but First Draft Hisaki asks him when he got that stick up his ass. Apparently, Current Hisaki has been asked this before. Seems to be a trend.

I finished it. Current Yasha meets First Draft Yasha. I wonder who I should draw next 🤔

#comics #webcomics #manga #kuroshouri #oc #ocsky #art
A 4-panel comic featuring the first draft version of my character, Yasha, who definitely looks very special for someone claiming to be a normal girl. In the comic, First Draft Yasha tells Current Yasha that she has the ability to control the demonic powers within her, and she also has a boyfriend. Current Yasha is especially annoyed with the boyfriend part and threatens to beat up the creators.

silly side doodle that didn’t quite fully fit 😔 #oc
Two of my old man OCs — Tatsuya and (unnamed) — as chibis. There is a label above them that says “brothers” and it points to the both of them, indicating that they are, indeed, brothers.
