Happy Halloween peoples!
I got another one of my characters in a Palworld cosplay for the spooky times.
When I was looking through the Paldeck for drawing ideas I saw Nyafia and immediately went "oh, that one's perfect for Ras"

Wyven and Scrappy have their costumes ready for Halloween, dressed as Katress and Mau

Completely normal, yep
The cake is indeed just a normal store bought cake, Nameless is just fucking with everyone lol
Melaina's birthday was on the 13th, I rarely get the chance to draw something for it since I'm always too busy with Inktober and Halloween prep at this time of year

I made this for a Phantasy Star Online RP server I'm in.
They're an organization and cleaning robot who's modelled after a Summoner class pet called a Popple.
This was mostly done for fun.

Trying my hand at making a more professional looking character sheet, specifically one that could potentially be used for 2D animation.
This is Ras, a mercenary for the Galactic Anti-Poaching Organization. She's a hyena tiger alien thing

Stay safe fellow LA peoples. If you can, please stay indoors until the raids and riots calm down
Also remember, if someone asks if you’ve see an immigrant, legal or otherwise
No you fucking didn’t 🤐

You know what guys? I think I spend way too much time and effort on this whole art thing. I'm gonna dial it back a little and take a more casual approach

Every artist starts somewhere, and we all started off with really shitty art skills
First pic was done 11 years ago in a free old version of Photoshop with just a mouse. Second pic is the result of patience, trial and error, and persistence
There is no excuse to use AI, pick up the damn pencil

One of the most common arguments you hear from fans of generative ‘AI’ is that it’s not plagiarizing people’s work, it’s just learning like a human learns. So I’m going to break down why that’s just not true, and why it can never be true, with the existing systems. 1/

"A Phantasy Star Gathering"
After over a year it's finally finished! I'm so happy with how this turned out :D
And most importantly my friends loved it. Each person got to pick a character from PSO2 for me to draw

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! It's been a minute since I've made a drawing (shamelessly) shipping these two
I drew a necromancer outfit for Melaina a few years ago and Nameless's last Halloween, so I thought I'd have them dress up together
(and make a really bad pun. They're Nec-romance-rs lmao)
