Hello! I'm Carter, a PNW based illustrator mainly working in traditional media. I love tabletop rpgs [such as DnD + VtM], character design, OCs, fanart, and romance — especially between queer folks!!

A Bird of Many Names 💜

Magpie for @systemreset.bsky.social 's birthday!
[ #vtm #vtmoc #vampirethemasquerade #nosferatu #nosferatuvtm #vampire #vampireboy #decocard #idolcard ]
A playing card sized artwork shows a young man leaning on his hand, looking up to the viewer's left. Magpie, the character drawn, has pale, beige tan skin, with odd features. He has large, bug-like eyes with tiny irises, long pointed ears, and many crooked fangs. Instead of a nose, a jumbled mess of scar tissue occupies the middle of his face. His arms are long, bending in places they shouldn't, and his fingers are tipped with dark claws. Despite his monstrous appearance, he wears cheery yellow and purple eyeshadow, and appears to be in a good mood. Magpie's hair, a black wig, is pinned back by two pink clips,and decorated with heart and star charms. For a top, he wears a white ribbed shirt with pale purple sleeves over a long-sleeved orange shirt. The purple sleeves of his overshirt have a large design of three pomegranates, in varying states of wholeness. The background of the illustration is colored dark, nearly black blue. Behind Magpie himself is a purple circle with a yellow-orange star that blooms out from behind his head. Finally, from the upper right side, swirling lines in black and deep blue cross over the frame, going down towards the bottom left. The back of previous illustration is colored itself. It is half a pale orange, and half white. Over top of that all is a set of golden circles, with rays that go out to the left. On the side, the words "A Bird of Many Names" are written.

yeah let's post this, why not
Rough sketch of eighties Majima. He's shirtless, wearing some high-cut panties, and over that a pair of dark pantyhose. His hair's tied in a loose bun and he's smoking idly, looking away, one hand at his hip.

My desert fan clan, the Setkxa'hawì ! Please be kind, they are my little project 💙

[ #Avatar #avatar2009 #navi #naviclan #navifanclan #avatarfanclan #frontiersofpandora #atwow #characterdesign ]
A reference sheet shows three annotated artworks of a Na'vi fan clan. On the left, there are two full-body examples of adult Na'vi, nude but drawn in a "barbie doll" style. On the right, there is a bust, showing in more detail a braided hairstyle and facial markings. All three artworks depict blue skinned people with darker blue stripes across their bodies. They have large, dark eyes, and rounded ears that sit high on their heads. On the two full-body illustrations, you can see that they have long tails as well. Another reference image depicts cultural wear of this Na'vi fan clan. Three different Na'vi stand in varied poses, showing their clothing. They all wear colorful central garments with a lot of embroidery overtop black undergarments. The middle figure also wears a blue skirt-like loincloth. They all have jewelry and dangley charms, showing similarities between individuals.

A cropped close-up up of the next image. It shows a colored illustration of an incredibly pale man with rosy blushing. He stands straight, his hands tucked into the pockets of his cropped black jacket. The man has fluffy bleached hair, pale blue grey eyes, and burgundy dyed tips. He also wears a pale structured shirt with a high collar and light silvery grey pants which are quite tight fitting. A colored illustration of an incredibly pale man with rosy blushing.

Went to a small con this weekend and did makeup inspired by TSHD for it! ☀️🏔

Two people pose for a selfie together, smiling and looking into the camera. They're both white, and have matching makeup looks. The taller wears a bandana and a white shirt, curving lines drawn coming out from it's leftmost eye. The shorter wears a black shirt over a striped black and white long-sleeve. He throws a peace sign up, and has the same makeup curving down from his rightmost eye. Pinks, purples, blues, and greens cover that cheek, dark swirling lines drawn overtop.

Two colored headshots depict a dark haired man with striking features. In the lower, he is fully in profile, looking off to the viewer's right. At the top, he looks to the opposite side. His eyes are a deep brown, accented by long, cow-like lashes. The bridge of his nose has a prominent bump, sloping downwards. His cheekbones are high and his lips pursed slightly. Behind him is a deep purple background, with names written. "Kuiper?" and "Paval." At the top right, a pale star with an under line floats.

A colored illustration depicts a pale, minty skinned person standing straight, with one arm elevated. He looks to the viewer, eyes a bright yellow. Various markings in burgundy and yellow dot their body, creating lines and small circles. Choppily cut dark teal hair falls over her shoulders, with short bangs hanging over their forehead. Notably, fangs portude from their cheeks, and grow from their abdomen, attached to flush flaps of skin. A colored illustration depicts a pale, minty skinned person standing straight, with one arm elevated. He looks to the viewer, eyes a bright yellow. In this version, he is clothed, a paper doll-like form overlayed on top of the base artwork. He wears a golden yellow top underneath a leather and deep blue jacket. For pants, they wear a tight green-grey pair, with leather leg guards fastened over top. Her shoes are a warm brown, tucked neatly under their pants. On their neck, a chunky silver necklace sits, with a large open eye charm. A cropped, close up of the last picture, focusing on the character's face. The yellow of their eyes bleeds out onto their skin. Blue and purple markings make natural eyeshadow, and bright highlights dot their cheeks.
