#artfight #artfight2025 #teamfossils #ocartist #originalcharacters #ocsky

My personal art fight card, team fossils. It shows my sona saying "My lord! It's a giant...peacock?" while looking at a prehistoric dinosaur peacock standing behind the card. The card itself features headshots of my main characters Vidarr, Otis, Liberty, Vastagh and Gregorio.

such a dear boy !!

Beauregard in the second image belongs to Vencifer

#ocsky #ocartist #originalcharacter #wildwest

doodle of Otis and Beau. Otis is smiling to Beau, not saying anything. Beau is confused. Then Otis pulls out a gun. Next to the drawings there's a meme of the "levels of intimacy" pyramid. In the self fulfillment, psychological and basic needs there's written "looking at them just smiling, them asking 'what?' and you pull out a gun"

Redemption AU stuff 💕
Bless them and their polycule I guess

[Some insights of the AU is written on the alt of the first image]

#ocartist #ocsky #originalcharacter #wildwest

Illustration of my OC Otis and Liberty+ Beauregard (Vencifer's OC). They're all lying together in the grass, enjoying the peaceful situation and the intimate moment. On the green background there's a writing
"Maybe another day", implying that this won't ever happen in the canon story.

This is a redemption AU, where Otis works to redeem himself, goes back being the blacksmith of Rosetown, and tries to become an helpful member of the society to repent for his crimes. He still struggles with the lead poisoning, of course (and he's gonna die of it very soon), but he somehow manages, especially thanks to the trust built with Beauregard and Liberty.
Liberty personally embraces his homosexuality, but they all pretty much have to hide it since this is based on a realistic wild west setting.

Small grey scale comic about Otis and Beauregard.
First vignette shows Beauregard taking note of something , while he says to Otis "It'd be delightful to count you in for this project"
Otis replies, annoyed. "Never! I'm not some kind of attraction!"
Second vignette shows Beauregard smiling to Otis, while saying "But it's be so happy if you-"
Otis interrupts him with an excited and happy "Fine!" (He's a simp)

HEHEHEH working on my sona design...
poltergeist knight with funny helmet :3

#ocsky #sona #fantasyoc #medievalfantasy

inked lineart of my sona, showing 2 headshots and a full body. He's a drowned knight that became a poltergeist. Outfit is a mix of knight, fancy clothes and a little bit of cowboy, sparkled with fish/fishing references (I know it sounds like a really bad mix but trust me)

- Death of a Rose -
GORE WARNING
(blood, organs spilling, cannibalism)

(check alt for also meaning and lore explanation!)

#ocartist #originalcharacter #wildwest #ocsky #cwgore

Lead roses are melting and dripping into bandit Otis' head, all while he's devouring his old self.
Specifically, Bandit Otis is clawing and gnawing the chest, exposing the white heart of his other self, slowly being drenched with the light blue/green of the lead roses, proof of how the lead poisoning ruined him to the core.
Rosetown is the name of the town, that's why roses are also associated with Otis, hence the title "Death of a Rose".
It's the death of his old self and the win of his new life. There's no coming back from here.

A two pages lyrics comic i did of my OC Otis trying to deal with his lead poisoning, loss of identity AND jealously.

Featuring Liberty (the grey haired sheriff) and Beauregard (his love-obsession interest and mayor of the town, Oc by Vencifer)

#oc #ocartist #wildwest #artistsonbluesky

First comic page.
"when a rattle of rats had awoken" (it shows a bunch of rats running in a red background;
"The sinews, the nerves and the veins" (the rats are skinned and are shown to falling off from a cup of tea, black leaves and blood);
"My piano is boldly outspoken." (it shows a vignette with Otis black silhouette peeking from a fog, brain is highlighted.);
"And attempts to repeat his refrain" Bandit Otis confronts his past, sheriff himself. He tries blindly imitate who he was, but simply can't.

Second comic page:
"So i stood with a knot in my stomach" (Otis is shown holding a hanging knot, while he sickly spits blood. A weird horse-skull figure next to him holds a key);
"And i gazed at the terrible sight" (Otis stands in a red earthed desert, opening his arms to a red sky);
"of two youngsters concealed in a barrel" (Otis holds a key, in the middle of it you can see clearly the face of Beauregard, smiling and talking to another person);
"suckin'" (Beau kisses that person, it's Liberty.)
"Monkberry moon delight" (Otis smokes, looking jealously at the two+ the key).

Otis' time to be furry-fied. Drew him as a bobcat because he's very big cat coded!

#ocsky #originalcharacter #ocartist #anthro #wildwest #cowboyoc

He's pointing behind him, whole rolling his gun with his other hand. White background with a simple desert colour for the ground

Back from the hiatus with the reference of Otis' ex best friend Liberty. He's the current sheriff of Rosetown (and Beauregard's love interest). The three of them have a crazy poly relationship, trust me

full body of my oc Vidarr standing. In one hand he has a leather whip while the other is flexing. He got a smug expression and sparkles around his face

keycharm design featuring my Oc Vastagh. It shows a golden dragon curling around a treasure made of golden coins, a sword and jewels. Smoke is coming out of his nostrils

Happy (very western) Valentine's day! 💛

I made these two designs of my current hyperfixation ships i have,,,
Blonco (Blondie and Tuco from The good, the bad and the ugly)
and Otisgard (my Oc Otis x vencifer's oc Beau)

#thegoodthebadandtheugly #blonco #ocartist #ocsky #farwest #originalcharacter

Valentine day heart design of Tuco and Blondie (from the good, the bad and the ugly). It shows the profiles of the two sharing a cigar, looking at each other in a red, dawn-like background, with hints of the cemetery from the final movie scene.

Second Valentine's day heart design. It depicts my far west bandit oc Otis grinning to Vencifer's far west OC Beauregard. Otis is touching Beau's chest with a key, his whole character's symbol, while Beauregard is looking thoughtful at him, touching his shoulder in a compassionate manner. The background shows a far west scene, with Beau's background being houses and Otis' one being the desert and a sandstorm.

From hell a-riding on our range
Then, cowboy, change your ways today
Or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the devil's herd
Across these endless skies >

[ #cowboyoc #ocartist #cowboy #farwest #ocsky ]

illustration of my cowboy oc Otis crouching in some shallow water. Behind you can see a red skied western scenery. The sky is full of ghost riders riding ghostly horses, snorting red smoke. Under a pattern of guns and eyes, the water shows the reflection of glowing red eyed cows and a distorted reflection of Otis.

I redid some refs of my oc Otis!
Brash, cunning, volatile and ill-mannered, the once well loved sheriff is now a ruthless bandit, driven by insanity.
He's got a lead poisoning worsening his madness while being obsessed with keys (and with the new mayor) (homo)
