Two cropped images depicting the author's knights fighting strange gigantic creatures. A cropped image depicting the author and their various original characters, for their up-and-coming Meet The Artist for 2026. A cropped image depicting two costumed individuals playing instruments. Illustrative work for a band (and the authors' friends!) A cropped image depicting classic BEAT from the Jet Set Radio franchise. He's making a profane gesture while shooting spray paint willy-nilly!

Was pondering zodiac/horse themed oc art but I was thinking I didn't have even a handful of horse themed ocs I could work upon until I remembered HER!!! Going to redesign her before I do anything though if ever haha. #ocsky #wyraineocs #workbyraine #grindfiction
(Presumably) A woman in a horse-themed biker helmet with technicolor hair. She was designed for a piece of GRIND FICTION the author was working on...

Since BSKY has a new wave of people I'm jumping in too! 🫡I'm an illustrator with a heavy focus on narrative and game design! I mainly work on my personal projects!

[ #ocsky #art #workbyraine #illustration #fantasy #knight ]
The author's Meet the Artist from 2025. They update this every year! A knight in green armor hunts a blazing barghest. A werewolf next to his human form. Two of the artist's OCs: Anansi the Spider and an orange-clad man named Coyote!

Happy Holidays everyone! I'm an Illustrator focusing on vast fictional narratives and game design. In the coming year I'm going to start uploading the backlog of all my work maybe.
A knight in green armor hunts a gigantic blazing barghest. The sketch of the cover of a small zine the author created. An illustration featuring BEAT from Jet Set Radio. A knight in blue armor battles a vicious kelpie.

Respectfully, I left the other place a long time ago, well before anybody else I knew did. I've been struggling to find a foothold here but, idrc. One day I'll be able to upload things without needing tags. No sense trying to articulate the inarticulable. #talktag

the thing that drives me insane about genAI/chatgpt bullshit is that brother, the process IS the work IS the entire thing. no artist comes to art for the final result. the final result is inextricable from the fucking labor that came into making it

Gainful employment has kept me busy (thank God), but I do look forward to getting more time to myself! #workbyraine #sketchtag

Show us how you draw armour!
It really depends on what I'm trying to do. I have many knights so I'm keeping it simple for now... #workbyraine
Swordtember 2025, Day 23 (my birthday!), the theme of Owls with the Raptor Knight and various sketches... Four knights in vastly different fantasy armors. A dark skinned knight in black armor, wielding a polearm. A dark skinned space-knight in golden armor, wielding a rifle and a helm.

I unpinned my first serious about-post bc it needed to be updated. I tend to have a new one ready at the start of each year, so I figured I would just wait until then. :P In the mean time, here's a little bit about me for anyone who stumbles upon my work otherwise.
LIST: BFA in Animation, MA in Illustration, Full Time Job. 28 years old. I have friends and people I care about who care about me, who don't just provide me with delusional lip service and actually try to help me solve problems. I've started my own Studio Practice. I have a wide variety of skills and interests pertaining to the arts and beyond. I did not break out into the industry with my unique perspective and skillset, but I have been the envy of people equally as talented and practiced, or even moreso. I did not realize how deeply I was being overlooked and mistreated until recently, and I only have myself to blame. I aspire to be in spaces where my voice is reached by people who are willing to learn, who are willing to change their minds, who are willing to do the work. One day, I want to teach. I've spent my time cultivating insight and now I'm going to use it. I've spent a lot of my life trying to get along with people who actually, just suck. It's nobody's fault, but I can only be responsible for myself, so I'm learning how not to do that anymore. I am not Terminally Online. I do not know and I do not care.

The Sketching Shall Continue Until Morale Improves 😤 #sketchtag #workbyraine
A young fella' with curly anime hair holding a phone and looking to the right (our left). The symbols next to them are Mars and an altered planetary symbol that denotes "neutrois" A young black woman looking to the left (our right). The symbol next to her is Venus, but the line crossing the circle denotes "neutrois" The author's interpretation of Anansi the Spider, hunched forward and prowling on all of his arms reminiscent of a kind of monster. He says aloud "I'm gonna' smash yer head in, little lady" to someone in particular. They know who they are. The same character from the first drawing in an entirely different context. They are holding the decapitated head of a monster shaped like a tiger, and the freshly killed corpse of a smaller monster shaped like a bird. :) It's a metaphor.
