Raffle gift for @unikorppu.bsky.social! Her OC Uni in fox form, and her friend, Yö the crow! I love their color scheme, the orange pops so much against the black/gray!

Thank you for the chance to draw your beloved characters!

Uni and Yö's designs belong to Korppu 💜

#art #digitalart #fox #crow
A digital drawing of a silver fox and a crow against a purple gradient background. The fox is various shades of black and gray with a white portion at the end of her tail, and orange eyes. She also wears a key on a necklace. The crow is black with gray beak and feet. Both have glowing orange and yellow embers in their fur and feathers. The fox is facing slightly away from the viewer and looking inquisitively to the left as she explores. The crow flies above, also facing away form the viewer as they swoop downwards to follow the fox.

Raffle gift for @kathaja.com! I chose one of her alien species, the Tar'nex, because they just look so cool. I love their exoskeleton and all of the chompy teeth :3

Thanks for the chance to draw more World of Krim fan art!

Tar'nex design belongs to Kathaja 💜

#art #digitalart #alien #monster
A digital art drawing of an alien species created by Kathaja Krim, the Tar'nex. They have four arms and two multi-jointed legs, and four sets of wiry antennae attached to the back of their head and neck. They are very dark in color except for off-white colored exoskeleton covering their head and jaw, upper body and arms, their middle body and shoulders, and their legs. Their face is horned and very toothy. The Tar'nex is in an aggressive stance, with all four arms pulled back and ready to strike with clawed hands. Their legs are braced to pounce if needed, and their elongated mouth is open in a snarl.

I know it's kinda late, but I can't miss #N7day when Mass Effect is my favorite game!

A few of my fan art pieces over the years 💜

I still have so many I need to do. I really want to redo Garrus, and try Thane, and FemShep.

The wheel of names has chosen!

@kathaja.com I'll choose an alien that is not Zhaikes 🤣💜

And I never did anything special for 100, so I spun the wheel a second time!

@unikorppu.bsky.social Uni will be my first time drawing a fox! 🦊

Thank you all for participating, and for the support! 💜

Okay you convinced me 🫣 I offer Java as tribute, if personas count (And it's okay if they don't! 💜)

They are a skeleton wearing all black hoodie, jeans, combat boots, fingerless gloves, and over ear headphones, with a cyan mohawk. They usually have coffee in hand, and they are *so tired*
The artist's persona, Java. They are a skeleton wearing a black hoodie and large black headphones, and they have a cyan mohawk hairstyle. They have an extremely tired expression, and they are holding a purple to go cup of coffee.

I usually don't post a lot of WIPs (Because I tend to abandon them 🤣) but I'm really happy with how this one is coming along. My favorite goth farm husband in Stardew Valley 🖤

(I'm probably going to change the background because I'm not totally feeling it)

#wipwednesday
A young man leans up against a tree in the winter. He is dressed in a black leather jacket and black jeans, with a black and gray striped scarf around his neck. He has long black shaggy hair cut shorter on the left side of his head (Right to the viewer). He has a scowl on his face and looks towards the viewer. He has snake bite piercings, an eyebrow piercing, and a large black piercing in his visible ear. His nails are painted black. There is a frozen river in the background, along with a large leafless tree to the left, and a small gray bunny to the right on the other side of the river.

A study I did a while back of the Milky Way 🌌 I needed a new background for work calls, and I wanted something pretty.

Seeing this in person would fix me 🥹
