I also have starter packs and lists for my favorite artists and for furry tattoo artists that I’ve found here.

Feel free to check them out!!

Here’s my most recent physical sketch in the “My life in sketches” book I bought a while back! I’m on day 3 so far!
The text reads “Day 3: something you’re looking forward to this weekends” My sketch is of “clean dogs 🐶 “ The sketch shows a confused dog with floppy ears hesitantly staring at the edge of a bathtub, with bubbles floating near her face. I worked with a reference on my phone of Blake.Rosey (from instagram)’s free to use line art of a German shepherd to create this sketch.

I want to create a furry tattoo artist starter pack…

any advice?

I want to include mostly artists who take commissions on their tattoo artistry

However, I don’t follow enough furry tattoo designers.

Any recommendations?

Art created in reference to the game Hollow Knight. A nail sits on a bench, with no one to wield it. It rests there, in the city of tears, watching the rain fall onto the window, as many a lumafly float near the edge of an unbroken glass orb—forever trapped. This sketch features a many dark and somber blue shades, with the inside of the building appearing to glow a slight tan-ish grey color in comparison to the rainy blue night.

QRP with your starry art ✨ ✨✨

[ #digitalart #art #furry #furryart #bskyart #artistalley #artisticgrowth #furry #pfp #queerartist #disabledartist #folder32 #artfight #witchsky #tarotsky #tarot ]
This art fight attack was technically a revenge, but I didn’t know that at the time, so it wasn’t labeled as such. In this tarot card, Nightlight holds onto two clay jugs, pouring one into a pond that they gently dip their foot into. Another they pour on the ground, which makes small water paths that wind across the ground, with one spilling into the pond. In the background the sky is a muted blueish-purple, the ground is green, there are seven silver 8-pointed stars and one big yellow 8-pointed star. All eight of these stars light the sky aglow. Nightlight is a blue character with wavy dark blue hair that curls gently upwards. They wear a starry blue cloak with a sky blue trimming along its edge. They have a purple crescent moon clasp that fastens the cloak around their neck, which matches the pieces that are attached to their knees. They wear black pants, and a dark indigo pair of boots with golden heels. One eye is a bright blue five-point star, and the other is a golden crescent moon with a similarly colored circle at the right of the moon shape. This was based on The Philly Tarot Deck’s interpretation of The Star tarot card. This full body art was made in procreate in July ‘25 for Artfight by @JrangerbArt.bsky.social

If you’re a new artist or a wannabe artist like me, then you should know that spending upwards of 10 or more hours on that piece of art for free to try to improve is not helping you.

Here’s a message for beginner artists like me; spend less time on that art piece you’re working on, not more.

An attack on HowlDarling’s Undertale kinsona character, Samael. This is a shaded side profile/headshot/bust drawing with a sketchy/wobbly line art. The character is based on Asriel Dreemurr, and has white fur, curved white horns, black scaleras and white pupils, as well as two black half-crescent shaped curved triangles on his cheek. He is wearing a black t-shirt, and a gold necklace which would have a heart shaped locket if it were in the frame of the drawing. He is blowing a bubblegum bubble through his pointy smile. The background is an off white color with a black square behind the character. In the foreground, there is a logo of a sleeping marble fox which has the text “@JrangerbArt” below it.

I’ve been in love with the composition of this one. For a friend on discord.

[ #folder32 #digitalart #furryart #bskyart #TheWildRobot #queerartist #transartist #disabledartist #commissionsopen ]
Roz from The Wild Robot is carrying Fink through a dark winter forest path at night, lit aglow by a crescent moon, with Brightbill meandering behind. The sky is a dark purple, and it gently lightens the pine trees that surround the narrow path through the woods, as the moon begins its descent, shining ever brightly. The shadows are long, and Roz is damaged, but they will be able to see brightbill through; he will complete his journey of flying south for the winter; he will join the other geese. Even though he was a runt gostling, he will match pace and overcome his obstacles. Made by JrangerbArt.bsky.social in March ‘25.
