I do art stuff and generally post content from my personal setting to practice. Will generally talk about nonsense and games that I play. owo/

Claire Obscur: Expedition 33 is likely my game of the year.

Haven't felt strong emotions from a game in a long while now. So much so it's on par with most of my top RPGs of all time.

Took a bit of a break on art because I wasn't too inspired. This is mostly a test of my art skills.

Nephilims in my personal setting aren't exactly a thing since the union between the equivalent of angels and demons results in a completely different race. So she's a living anomaly.

Commission for a friend and his fanfic, which can be found here.
www.fanfiction.net/s/13842540/1...

I don't have much knowledge of Little Nightmares outside of seeing a few videos of it from horror content creators back in the day, so this was outside of my usual stuff to draw.

I'm admittedly not that skilled with long hair but I love drawing them

Last artwork of the month. A commission for a friend.

The prompt I got was "An angel based on the seven trumpets that heralds the end of the world" and the plant called "Angel's Trumpet".

This is also a part of the Angel-based commissions I've had over the years.

Introducing the very first NPC you'd encounter, Valeria Crow.

I've done artwork of her way back in 2023 but this is probably the most finalized she'll get.

As she's not a major character, she doesn't have a lot of expressions compared to say, Aisha.

Fate Grand Order is such a funny game out of context. What do you mean 60ish dinosaurs packing heat tried fighting a UFO

Here's what I consider as the final portrait for Aisha plus her expression sheet. This is focused on the expression sheet since I brought back my simplified rendering style for it.

Probably gonna do this for almost everyone I've drawn in 2023.

TIL there's a #PortfolioDay o3o

Hello, I do digital art stuff with an anime style in a fantasy aesthetic with a bit of sci-fi.

I'm currently working on my personal setting so a lot of my artworks outside of fan art is tied to it. owo/

HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you.

I'm working on a world called Lindranea, which is a setting for the video game I'm making o3o/

It's a sci-fi fantasy setting that takes place in the post-post-apocalypse so it has a mishmash of advanced technology and standard fare magic, so there's war machines and dragons and other silly stuff.

I'm working on my personal setting atm so a lot of my artwork is mostly dedicated to it.

Whoa a lotta new followers within the past several hours. An introduction for newcomers is in order.

Managed to squeeze in one more artwork for this year.

This is actually something I planned to draw as far back as 2020, but the hard drive failure I had made me push it back.

Like the Aisha artwork, this art is also a part of a set of ten, representing the ten races in my setting.

Aisha's probably my favorite character to draw because despite the fact that she's not that emotive, she's probably my most "emotional" character.

This piece is part of a set of ten, representing the ten humanoid races of my setting. I'll probably do the rest next year.

I was doing a draft on a completely different piece but got inspired to draw an expression sheet instead thanks to me screwing up her face.

So here's an expression sheet for Aisha to basically train myself in drawing her face right.

Found a motivational post from Xitter by EtheringtonBrothers. It might be something you need to hear o3o/

Introducing "Rose", a character that has important connections to Aisha.

Her basic design has been ironed out in one of my old artworks, but this is the first time I've did a full body art of her.

She's another historical OC since she's the first scythe wielder in history.

I learned a lot of hair-based lessons throughout this year, as a result I felt confident enough to try Maki's intended hairstyle.
For a long time she was suppose to look like this but I couldn't do it justice until now.

I'm not quite happy with the result but it's a good springboard.

I'm putting a good chunk of my creative energy into writing for a bit

Except the weekend because inspiration struck me after I realized my hair physics have improved.

Thus here's Melira properly represented as she should be, a divinity. 9 years to get to this level. Worth it.

Introducing Mary Faust.

She's another old timer OC that's been around since 2010-2011. Her design hasn't changed much, but her hairstyle has just been finalized as of recently.

I spent five weeks on this, having finished her rough linework way before I finished Margarethe.

Introducing Margarethe Lorelei.

I was gonna post this last week but friend feedback wasn't warm on the first draft so I redid it from the ground up within 3 days over the weekends. I'm somewhat satisfied with the second draft honestly.

Apologies if I haven't been posting.

So this is an important story moment and is arguably spoilers, but it has no context so it's just a really cool shot. It's actually three separate layers to allow a "pan up".
