Yo yo #PortfolioDay ~

Phen here! I adore creating visual, nonlinear stories delving into identity, tech, & the surreal absurdity that comes with it all being muxed together. #illustration #comics

Digital illustration of six human cartoon characters standing in an urban street in silhouette against a starry evening sky. The central figure has completely red eyes, red spiky hair, and an electrostatic halo behind his head. He is flanked on both sides by the others with one seated behind him, despondent. They are all holding modern cell phones except the center character. Dark, inky liquid rises from behind them in front of the city buildings and rows of streetlights emitting eerie, red light. A colourful digital illustration of two figures clinging to each other in a futuristic, abstract airport. The female figure on the left is wearing an oversized jacket that has several strips of fabric clamped to it, mimicking how the character on the right is holding onto her. The rightmost figure's jacket and sneakers are embellished with strips that are melting away. There is also a small patch on the back of his hand that is melting as well. Neon signs depicting travel icons and tall decorative columns of light beams surround them. Digital comic page of cartoony people listening to the antagonist looming from atop a streetlight contradict them. Script: "No, no, no, no, no. Something else is goin' on here. 'S not got nothin' to do with yer lil game prototype. Doesn't got anything to do with computers or techy stuff at all. Sten doesn't even know! 'Cuz she told us... not to tell her. There's always two sides to a story." Digital comic page of cartoony people at a wedding reception. The main characters are losing composure as a dramatic scene unravels. Script: "This... is familiar." Flashback panel: "Stens' game has profiles now! Ya wanna try? He said I could share."

Back when I drew this Ilworld piece with the characters dressed as Nightmare Before Christmas characters in 2019 the only characters that had been introduced in the comic so far were Isis, Rahab, Iacchus and Krem. It took YEARS but you might recognize the other characters now... Happy Halloween 🎃

The Animal Crossing bat parade from my new leaf years is long. LOOK AT THE STUPID ONIGIRI ONE. I love it.
Animal Crossing style bat villager designs in watercolour, ink, and graphite. The first is a secretary with round glasses and a tuft of hair, the second is a crescent moon themed bat with a walrus nose, the third is a jock bat with a sports racing strip on its head, the fourth is a panda bat, and the fifth is a bat with an onigiri inspired head.

Five human characters in halloween costumes in front of a chain convenience store with the logo five on it. From left: a woman wearing a gothic vampire costume with five-spiked crown, a woman wearing an astronaut suit holding her helmet, a man wearing a green alien costume with antennae, a man wearing a sooty chimney sweep's outfit with a cigarette, and a man with pale blue doctor's scrubs.

happy hole-o-ween
A teen girl stands half in cross-section, with one side showing her smiling threateningly and the other side showing her bones and brains. Her eyes, brain, and teeth are rendered in lime green while the rest of her has the texture of raw steak. The background is a collage of Wikipedia articles and diagrams.

More Animal Crossing bats! Fruit bats (get it get it get it)~ Yes, onion is a fruit, don't question it.
A watercolour, ink, and pencil illustration of bats in the style of Animal Crossing animals. Their oversized heads are reminiscent of fruits. The first is a red cherry, the second a blueberry, the third a pink strawberry, the fourth a green melon, fifth a peeled dragonfruit, and the last is an onion, perhaps the sweetest of all fruits, right?

My old Animal Crossing bats idea. You cannot even fathom how 10000% certain I was that they'd be included in the next AC game ;m;
Cartoony bats in watercolour, ink and pencil in the style of Animal Crossing. The first is themed like a candy corn, the second is a traditional sleepy looking bat, the third is a fancy bat with lipstick, and the fourth is a nurse.
