Hi #portfolioday !! I'm Daro, an artist who likes drawing fantastical characters with inspiration from folklore and medieval art 🗡️

my links ---> lilyinwaiting.carrd.co
My OC Soren, nude with angel wings, cradles himself facing away from the viewer. An arrow piercing a rose sits in the foreground. Next to him is a panel including a lamb, dove, and a heart whose ventricles connect to another rose. Above him is a fig tree. A large red halo frames Soren's face in the background. Art of my OC Soren, he sits nude smiling at the viewer as feathers float around him, his hair curling and turning translucent at the edges. In the lower left is a panel with a melting ribcage with roses poked into the top like a vase. In the upper right a panel with a mass of feathers, a halo above them. The shadows and painting style are noticeably softer, with more fluidity. A dark skinned human figure with bright blue hair stands in a suit of armor. She holds a horned skull in one hand, her other resting on her sword. Plants and butterflies surround her. a black unicorn foal in silhouette looks up at a burning bright sun.

"Transsexuality is bourgeois" reflects the common belief that medicine, technology, and any improvements to quality of life are owed to capitalism. The reality is that capitalism holds these improvements hostage for the sake of wealth.

Love an art improvement meme 🌟 2020 vs 2025! I think there's a lot that can be learned by looking back at old work, my digital painting style was really stiff and tedious at the time but I do love the effect of the clearly delineated folds and shadows vs. my softer rendering now. Both are cool!
Art at beginning of COVID Art of 2B from NieR Automata in a digital painting style. The shadows and folds are quite stark, with little blending. It looks neat! Vs. Now! Art of my OC Soren, he sits nude smiling at the viewer as feathers float around him, his hair curling and turning translucent at the edges.

Don't spread yourself too thin darling

[OC: Andrei Croft #NewtsOCs]
digital illustration in the shape of an ace of hearts card depicting a portrait of a young man with blood down his throat and 9 dark colored hands with sharp nails cupping arranged around him. Some are cupping his face, one is holding his hair and one is gripping his throat. his lips are stained the same color as the blood and there is a smoke rising from one of his pupils. The letter A in the corners of the cards is done in a gothic style font. just the plain lineart from the previous illustration.

Soren, a humanoid figure, sits nude with long curling hair floating off of him. The ends fade against the background. A golden heart protrudes from his chest, the arteries turning into thorned branches snaking around his neck. She is surrounded by a decorated frame, and two panels. The first panel is many feathers below a halo. The second frame is a melting ribcage, with roses placed into the top like a vase.

weapon
Digital painting of a woman with a beautiful face, and a skinless, mutated body. Her muscles are exposed with tendons sprawled in unnatural patterns all over her flesh. There are barbed wires constricting her left wrist, and an open hole in the middle of her left hand. Her entire right forearm is a mutated weapon of sorts; a dismembered skeleton's skull and ribcage tethered to her flesh by bloody tendrils, and its lower part ends in a serrated blade.

Thinking about doing some mild worldbuilding where these two are breeds of a "domestic unicorn". Potentially one that was genetically engineered in the past but now has replaced horses in a post apocalyptic but rebound world. That way I don't break my "unicorns are not domestic animals" rule lol.
Digital painting of a dark unicorn with a glossy coat and white markings on her legs, belly, and face. She has a long horn, a tightly braided mane, and a loosely braided tuft on the end of her tail. She stands facing right with a front leg raised. Behind her is a gold ring, and behind that is a bunch of green leaves. Digital painting of a reddish-orange-brown unicorn with white spots on its rump. It is standing facing left. It most resembles a chestnut horse with a braided mane and a short tail with a long tuft at the end. It has a long horn and its coat is glossy.

this is my visual novel btw:
Screenshot that shows a knight from a side view, in front of a stone wall, their helmet bent forward. Red text over a black screen that says: "YOU ARE NOTHING." A screenshot of a castle hallway with a door with crossed halberds over it, banners on the wall that show bird and tree symbols, and a suit of armour on display that resembles the elite knight set from Dark Souls. The text says: "A traveller's suit of armour that once belonged to a distant relative of yours, an elite among knights. It's been in your family for generations."
