Talos and Diana just chilling together. Talos is a giant sphinx while Diana is the Roman goddess, Diana (her namesake). Talos is lying on her back against a tree and gently holding Diana up with her paws. The background is a forest. Cheese as a alicorn (unicorn and pegasus). Cheese is essentially a horse with a tiger jaw, goat eyes, and bear nose. The background is bright red while his pose is fierce and angry.

Drew up Diana in her executioner gear. I also changed up her scar design. I might get into her lore on here later :3
#art #executionerart #blackcharacter #scar #sketch #sketches #traditionalart #blackartist #artsky #myart #original #fantasyart
Diana Stone holding her executioner axe on her left shoulder. She’s wearing a hood with a mask that covers up her face and shoulders, a sleeveless shirt, a belt holding a pouch of seeds and an additional knife, long pants and ironclad gloves. Her right arm is covered in scars on her forearm and shoulder. Since she’s a plant user, she uses the seeds to grow plants that hold down her victims and, sometimes, give them a plant to calm them down in their last moments. Diana giving a hybrid kid some food. The kid is a mix between a werewolf and a dark elf. She’s wearing the same outfit in the last picture but with the addition of ironclad boots and no weapons. The kid is wearing scrappy clothing. They’re implied to be sitting in an alleyway. Text: Toward Diana: “Gave lil guy some food” Toward hybrid kid: ”Reluctantly ate it up” Food sound effects: Munch Munch Munch Headshots of Diana showing a new scar design. It used to just be a big scar on her right cheek and neck but it now reaches around the back of her head to her forehead. It’s curved like a backwards ‘C’. She can still see out of her right eye but she can’t open it fully just like her previous design.

Made some digital art of Talos! Took me forever since I’m experimenting with a new style but I honestly love it :)

#art #artsky #ocart #illustration #digitalart #originalart #originalcharacter #oc #originalcharacterart #blackartist #fantasyart #myart #shapeshifterart #dragonart #humanoid
Talos in her original form—a black dragon humanoid with red scales and orange stripes between them. The black parts are actually a bit slime-like to help her shape shift and she doesn’t have a snout or nose. Her outfit includes an old whiteish cape with a blue stripe within the center, whiteish bandages covering her torso and arms/hands, and blue split pants that holds her brown leather purse along the belt. All of these items (except her torso) have gold bracelets or brooches on them. Her pose is flamboyant as she puts one of her hands behind her head in a relaxed gesture. She also has a big smile. Her face is framed by red scars that represent where her scales and other features of her original form go. Her ears are elf-like and she has a hook nose. Her skin is brown like her eyes rather than white like in her original form. She’s wearing fully brown leather clothing with one of her legs being covered in bandages. She’s also wearing a blue cape that looks purple due to the lighting. She also has red accessories on two strands of her hair that frame her face. The pose and smile are the same.

Emotional Self Portrait

My submission for the @pokeearthcollab.bsky.social Meowth Collab!

Really sad to hear about James Carter Cathcart’s passing. Crazy just how many characters he voiced in the anime.

#pokemon #fanart #artsky
An illustration in black ink and colored pencil of the pokemon Meowth. Meowth is a bipedal beige cat with brown markings on its feet and tail. It has black ears and a gold coin embedded in its forehead. This Meowth is slouched over and furrowing its brow in exasperation.

You know when you just sit down and try to brush up on the fundamentals, but you end up making another full blown piece entirely? That’s basically what happened with this piece but it ended up getting rid of some stress I had so it’s a win

Talos laying on Diana’s lap. Diana is playing with Talos’s face while they hold hands. The setting is a bright sunny day and they are both smiling and blushing.

Felt like drawing Clawd the other day. Not sure if I ever mentioned his name here but he’s a chill guy dealing with a lot of pain.

#art #furry #furryart #trans #transcharacter #oc #ocart #originalcharacter #blackartist #illustration #cowboy #artsky #queerart
Description: Clawd waiting to get his picture taken. He’s a mix between a lynx and a sand cat. His fur is a warm brown with slightly darker brown spots to match. He’s wearing a brown cowboy hat and gloves, white bandages, a silver earring, a tan shirt, and a red vest with two silver buttons on each side and gold laces to connect them. He has a piece of wheat in his mouth with a bored expression. Text: “Could ya take it already? I don’t have all day…” Fun Fact: He’s in his 40s Full-body watercolor artwork of Clawd. He’s holding two silver colored revolvers. His description is the same as the first image with the addition of having two brownish gun holsters, a brown belt with a silver tag in the center, and maroon pant legs and foot covers. He also has a medium sized spotted tail and big fluffy spotted paws for feet.

Been working on this one for about a week or so. Let me know what yall think. This one has some body horror!

#art #illustration #bodyhorrorart #bodyhorror #queer #queeroc #originalcharacter #ocart #originalcharacterart #blackartist #artsky
Butterfly Man (she/her) covering her body as she sits in a broken jar. She has the features of a scarlet butterfly in terms of her bright red and black wings and black arms/appendages. Her antennas are bright red, her face is a black, her eye is red and yellow, while her skin is brown with lots of scars. The background is dark to focus on her eye. The drawing specifically was inspired by Ful Stop by Radiohead Some lore below :) Butterfly Man (she/her) is based off of a scarlet butterfly and she was mutated with one as part of a secret government experiment called New Nature Project (NNP). Butterfly Man wasn’t always ‘Butterfly Man’ but that doesn’t matter anymore. She’s shown that technology can be stronger than magic—well she’s survived long enough to anyways. All that matters is getting stronger so when she faces her archenemy, Beetle Man, she’ll be able to crush him for good. Maybe if he changes his ways he can come back and serve his Kingdom like he ought to, but he would have to undergo the Man-Machine Project as a mark of his loyalty. Only then, he can be forgiven. Older sketches of Butterfly Man showing her face, old wing design, and teeth under her mutated face. More older sketches of Butterfly Man with one of them showcasing her drinking sugar water.
