(Re)Introducing my character, Six!
My OC of ~8 years. He doesn't have much of a lore as a lot of my lore-building is being reserved for my project "In Tears", so he's more for personal art now.

A full-body illustration of Joybilance's original character, Six -- A man with blue and black hair in a long wolfcut, a white coat with metallic detailing, a dark blue top, and a grey wetsuit. Gills line the side of his neck and he sports a pair of white glasses. Six appears as though he is floating in midair, one hand poised in a friendly manner as he gives the viewer a bright grin. A design sheet for Joybilance's character, Six. A front and back view of Six's design is displayed, with seperate views of the cuffs of the sleeve, the back of the coat collar, and a profile view of Six's bust to display the gills on his neck.

Instantly heating up water sounds like a really good ability right now.

A collection of sketches featuring Joybilance’s OC, Six. Six is shown using his water powers in several different ways, including: - Communicating with fish - Creating small water currents for himself to swim through - Heating up water - Making water cold and splashing it on his face - Wringing out water from wet towels

Is it cheating to use your water powers in a pool party?

#ocsky #originacharacter #oc
A sketch page of Joybilance's OC, Six, utilizing his water powers in several different ways, including: - An umbrella - A projectile akin to a watergun - Healing burns and scrapes To the side is a roughly colored illustration of Six, hand raised as a huge surge of water circles around him. While the other sketches portray Six using his powers in non-serious ways, this depiction is much different and much more authoritative.

A digitally-painted illustration for Kishiko Bushido. Kishiko is a half-kitsune wearing a white dress with blue accents and frills on the hem of the dress and sleeves, while her SO Velle Njord is in a regal Nutcracker Prince outfit. The area surrounding them is filled with Christmas decorations and gifts; A fireplace has a garland with a bell and stockings, as well as candles, a picture frame of a Kishiko doodle, and a wreath with a black bow above it. Gold tinsel wraps around pillars to the side, and there are paintings of a butterfly and a fox and weasel. A Christmas Tree stands behind the duo, and below it are various gifts and items referencing a variety of games that Kishiko has played over the past year, including but not limited to: - Superliminal (Chess piece) - Needle (Hollow Knight) - Nautilus Shell (ABZU) - Raincoat (Little Nightmares 1 and 2) - Pair of Geese (Untitled Goose Game) The fireplace lights up the area in a warm glow, while an ambient cool light shines from a corner.

Happy birthday, Six!
Exactly a year ago I brought him back as my personal OC after about several years, and I've been going back to enjoying doing personal art ever since.

#ocsky #originalcharacter #ocart #digitalpainting #ocbirthday
A digital painting of Joybilance's OC, Six; a man in blue/black hair, gills on his neck, and a white coat. He seems to have just resurfaced from a swim, his face and hair still wet. He pulls back locks of hair from the side of his face, greeting the viewer with a smile. A version of the previous illustration with text overlaying it. "Good morning! Were you up to see the sunrise, as well? The waves were quite rough, so it took me a while to find a place to settle. I made it just as the sun came into view, though! ...It has been a year now, ever since I came to. A thought came to mind, as I was watching the sun come up; How much more will time give us throughout the course of another year? What exactly is out there that we don't know of? You don't have to answer that -- to be frank, no one is obligated to. That's the joy of being alive, after all: to live. To live means...to experience the moment -- the goods and the bads. To reap what you sow, endure storms, heal from grief, celebrate achievements... I hope this coming year will be filled with nothing but the best experiences for you. Whatever resolutions you vow to keep, whatever plans you have, I hope that you keep them near and dear to your heart. As for me... There is still much out there that I have yet to make sense of. She... is quite busy organizing things, as well. Nonetheless, I am looking forward to seeing everything continue to unfold. Until then...safe travels, and see you around!"

Well, good news...
My nails are growing properly after a year of doing this (and resisting picking it off)! They've never been as long as they are now, before.
joybilance.bsky.social 💧 Joybilance | Digital Painting & Visual Development @joybilance.bsky.social · Jan 12
Truthfully, the reason why I paint my nails is because I have a horrible nail-biting and skin-picking habit. I idiotically haven’t grown out of it and it gets worse in major bouts of anxiety. Recently, though, I decided to pick up the incentive to keep my nails clean by painting them.

Merry Christmas, Hightailers! 🎄
Hope your holidays have been cozy!

Our holiday stream is a little after Christmas Day this year, but will be no less festive ✨

Will we see you this Sunday for jolly jigsaw puzzling?

Here’s a little sneak peek〜!
Come by to piece together the full artwork with us 🧡
A portion of a Christmas illustration, drawn by Joybilance for Kishiko Bushido. Featured in the illustration is the top of a fireplace, decorated with garland from which three red stockings hang. On the left is a Christmas tree, and to the right is a pillar wrapped in spiraling gold tinsel. Above the fireplace, there is a large wreath with holly berries, tied with a black bow (like the ones on Kishiko’s outfit). On the fireplace’s mantle, there are two candles: one thick, and one with a long metal base, There is also a picture frame, with a silly doodle of Kishiko inside (the Kishi-Picasso post-it). The wall is made up of grey cobbled brick, with foxfire energy peeking through where the mortar would normally be.
