halloween dragon!

#DigitalArt #HeavyPaint #malusdraco-art #MyArt #dragon #halloween
an undead dragon-like thing with a giant frill sporting eye spots and a hint of a smiling mouth stalks down an incline. its skin is gnarled, rotted, and its ribs protrude from a hollow abdomen like curved needles.

I was gonna say “I promise I can read” but it looks like the site says 204 pages? Unless ct means something else (carat?)
Screenshot of the world heist specs from the peow catalog, one of the items is “page ct. 204”

i'll join the lads in pouring one out for #cohost

this was done for the final community canvas, i figure it's good enough for a proper sendoff

thank you cohost

a cell-shaded digital piece of my sona (a wyvern with a human skeleton as the top half, covered in green flames) flying with eggbug (cohost's pink bean-shaped bug mascot).

glove version 1.1 turned out SO cool looking (even though i couldn't get my middle and ring fingers all the way in) i'm really feelin it

i've already got glove pattern 1.2 drawn up, fixing the finger problems and thumb bump, hopefully to be tested tomorrow
a photo of a hand wearing a roughshod looking black glove with very long, slender fingers a different view of the same glove. the silhouette the fingers give looks kinda like an anime villain, or some sort of evil creature

i definitely did make things this year! almost all of these are character tokens/icons though, which feels less significant.
if there's appetite for it i have summaries going back until 2016 i could share!

another icon i finished up yesterday. not sure i'm entirely happy with it but using my new values rules i think it's gotta be done

Oleander
#malusdraco-art #ocSky #originalCharacter #digitalArt
a digital portrait of a very pale and skinny androgynous woman against a backdrop of tree branches. she's scowling and wearing a dark green tunic that exposes the long scar down the middle of her chest.

a digital painting of a skeleton creature with wings for arms. green fire blazes behind the skull head and from within the ribcage. the wings contain galaxies

most of my work is these character-token like things, though, so this is probably what you'll see the most of in terms of finished art.
#malusdraco-art
a digital portrait of a white feathered dragon with a halo of blood. his closed eyes leak more blood. a digital portrait of a squat looking dragon with a skull formation on its head and highly-iridescent angular scales a digital portrait of a woman made of shadow, wearing a suit of armor, wielding an executioner's sword made of rainbow stained glass panels. speckles of bright colors shine in the smoke that makes up her body, and her eyes are bright like stained glass. a digital portrait of a sultry-looking woman with black hair and heterochromia in her eyes. she holds a white rose.

lately I've been doing a lot more pinup work, too. these usually aren't tagged separately but I do promise to label them

#malusdraco-art
a very low-contrast digital painting of a naked angel, almost disappearing into the background a rough painting of a naked woman in water. she's lit from some shimmering light below the surface a pinup of a chameleon lady viewed from the back, in lingerie, pulling her panties down a digital painting of a gold dragon lady among soft fabrics and silks, wearing jewelry as she poses before a stained glass window

Hi I'm Malus (they/them) white genderqueer aroace

I'm an artist (mostly digital but I dabble) who draws... a LOT of different things, though mostly my OCs. my work skews pretty heavily fantasy/sci-fi, with frequent horror elements

I post all my art to the tag #malusdraco-art

a digital painting of a pirate lady squatting on the side of a sinking ship, holding a shadowy cormorant on her arm a digital painting of a skeleton in armor doing bright orange magic a digital painting of a scary-looking white witch lady surrounded by trees. A branch dips in front of her, with an anatomical heart seemingly growing out of it like a fruit. a digital painting of a purple vampire woman with her eyes closed. she has wings that are nearly swallowed up by the dark background, and flowing smoke-like hair

really tapped into something here
#malusdraco-art #nudity #pinup #insects #nsfw
a painting in blue and green tones of a housefly lady. notably, she has a fly head, long fly-like hairs all over her body, like normal body hair but stiff and long, and a pair of wings. she holds her hands together like flies do to press her boobs up.

in a bit of an art slump and noticing most of my work lacks any real punch, so here's an attempt to change that- two slightly different approaches, with sketch-first on the left and block-first on the right

#malusdraco-art #sketch
two high-contrast sketches of long haired women. there are large brushstrokes delineating shadows and major forms, and smaller lines for the details

these are older but here, have some more sketches.
this is Oleander, the chosen of the Fellwood. a witch who allegedly exchanged her heart for the powers of the forest

(yeah, she's a Howl-like)

#malusdraco-art #OCsky #sketch
a sketch of a sharp looking feminine character splitting through a fireball, turning it into branches and leaves. the magic strain has left her arm nearly taken over by roots popping out from under her skin. the same character in a slightly fancier outfit, with a headshot featuring a rough crown made of twisting branches the same character doing plant magic, summoning leaves and a vine seemingly from thin air. she's scowling.

coupla sketches of a LOVELY new-ish guy i got from cory @ toyhouse. seraph crow bird guy. they even designed them an outfit for me (some of which pictured right)

#malusdraco-art #ocSky #sketch
a sketch of a bird man (wings on their back, plus arms and bird legs, and a tail) leaning over examining their hands. wings cover their face and they look kind of solemn a headshot sketch of the same character, showing off their multiple eyes, which aren't covered now by the wings on their head. they're also wearing a cute striped hat and a collared shirt

#malusdraco-art #ocSky #sketch
a trio of rough sketches of a bald masc-ish person- a sketch of them sitting, wearing loose, large clothes and a scarf, another close up of their head, featuring piercings and a face tattoo that resembles a circuit diagram, and a smaller icon sketch of a skull in a helmet, their avatar.

i cannot explain my thought process here, but please enjoy this chameleon lady pinup from months ago

#malusdraco-art #digitalArt #furryArt #pinup
a digital painting of a chameleon woman pulling down her panties to show her ass. she wears thigh-high stockings and a bra that can barely contain her chameleon titties.

🌟 quote repost with your art that has stars 🌠

i made this for TDOV last year and i think it's one of my all-time favorites.

their wings contain galaxies!
#malusdraco-art
a digital painting of a skeleton creature with wing arms. the membrane of the wings has the suggestion of stars and faraway galaxies, while a green fire burns within the creature's ribcage.

something i finished up a couple days ago- it's Pris, aka Priscilla Payne, the 5 foot nothing angel-themed heel wrestler i've paired up with my friend's own wrestler character (who is like, over 6' beefed up sea orc lady)

#malusdraco-art #myArt #originalCharacter #ocSky
a circular icon featuring a buff wrestler woman with a revealing white and gold costume. she's leaning on the ropes and sweats under the spotlight, while also being heavily dusted with glitter.

i'm in that rendering phase where i zoom out and can't believe this is something i've made and also simultaneously am HYPER aware of how much work i've put into this

#malusdraco-art #wip
a crop of a digital painting. visible is a meticulously-rendered scaled tail, a pair of knees (not scaled) and fingertips from a hand out of frame. there is also rendered fabric to support the tail and a hint of stained glass in the background.

because i am predictable, i'm working on a golden dragon lady pinup. absolutely no promises it'll ever be finished but i'm pretty happy with how these face scales turned out

#wip #malusdraco-art #digitalArt #dragon
a digital painting of the head and shoulders of a gold dragon lady. she has a long snout and teeth like a gharial's. beneath the chin isn't rendered as cleanly
