Guess what I can post now 👀

#KeepingTime

A drawing of a young man opening a door to an apartment building, stopped mid-stride as he hears someone speak behind him. There is text swirling in the wind around him that reads, "I didn't think I'd ever be lucky enough to hear you sing again," said by the person off-screen.

Character depicted is Daniel Akutagawa from Keeping Time by Kody Okamoto. Drawn with copic markers, traditional ink, and a little digital painting.

I wanted to do a panel redraw as part of the #KeepingTimeOneYear fanweek, but I only just realized this one's not public yet, haha-- 😭

So, I'll leave this mysterious sketch for now, and in the meantime, go read Keeping Time by @kodyisover.com so you can feel all the feels!

Happy one-year KT 🎉

An unfinished sketch of a young man as he reaches out to open a door. He has a surprised expression on his face... What could it mean 👀

Starting off 2025 with samdoesarts pause challenge 😈🪓

#art #samdoespausechallenge

A character with green skin and snake-like teeth and eyes grins at the viewer. They are crouched down with a large axe laying across their shoulders. They are wearing a dark jumper, with no sleeves, and a couple necklaces, with black and white air jordans. One eye is covered with an eye patch as the other eye glows from under their brow. A snake tattoo wraps around their arm and glows with a similar green hue as their eye

My favorite pyro porcupine

#art #bakugo #myheroacademia #anime

Bakugo from the anime My Hero Academia. He is dressed in his hero outfit (black base with orange accents, specifically an orange X across his chest, spiky fins shooting off the sides of his face mask). The drawing cuts off at the torso, and he is standing in front of a wall of flames. He grins maniacally as he appears to shout down at someone off-screen.

Old study I did for an art challenge :D

#art #horizontober #horizonzerodawn

Aloy from the video game Horizon: Zero Dawn stands in a thick fog lit by moonlight. Emerging from the fog is a Frostclaw, eyes glowing a sinister red as it approaches Aloy. Done in a quick, painterly style. Thick brush strokes with minimal detail.

If you're unfamiliar with this game, a Frostclaw is a giant mechanical bear that Aloy sometimes has to hunt for parts. The Frostclaw is one of the scariest mechanical creatures in the game, imo!

Another old webtoon fanart, Kieran from Purple Hyacinth! This was based off some art that the author, Soph, did on her instagram (deadsophism).

#art #purplehyacinth

A male dancer backlit in on a dark background. He arches his back backwards as he spreads his arms to the side, and leans forward on his toes, like he's bursting with energy. He is constrained by thin, white strings that go off screen. Purple hyacinth petals fall from the top, with a purple hyacinth flower lays beneath him on the ground.

Wanted to repost this fanart of one of my favorite webtoons, "Two the Stars and Back," since it is ending soon T-T

#art #webtoon #twothestarsandback

Digital drawing of a young man wearing a pink dress with a sunflower pattern. He is wearing white sneakers with white, ruffled socks. The dress has ruffled straps and the young man wears a purple, baggy shirt underneath. He is holding a parasol while sticking one arm out to the side, and kicking his leg up off the ground. Almost like he was captured mid-spin.

I wanna start posting some old art here just to liven up my page a little.

#art #sinkingiron

A person standing on the deck of a boat, viewed from behind. They look up at their captain, who is being pulled violently from the boat by a large seat monster.

Here's Luffy!

Digital drawing of Luffy from One Piece as a merman. He is posed like he's dancing, tail swishing behind him as he smiles brightly.

I started these back during mermay, but because I'm terrible at keeping up with art challenges, I'm still drawing them! Lol.

First: Franky and Robin.

Franky from one piece drawn as a merman! His tail fades from dark purple to light pink, and he is wearing a yellow starfish sash around his shoulders.

Nico Robin from one piece drawn as a mermaid. She is posing dramatically while using her devil fruit power, and side-eyeing the viewer with a smirk on her face. Her tail is purple, and she is wearing a coral chest covering over her breasts.
