Earlier versions of this design and some sketches. ✨

I do like the earlier versions too, the colours are very fun but the new iterations just feel much more grounded and alive. It's so niceee
An earlier iteration of the same guy. The four white ears are also present, but instead of twiggy antlers, they have goggles on their head, the clothes looser and flowier with no scarf. The colours at more bright, soft blue and green tones with salmon coloured accents. Exactly the same guy as the picture just before, the earlier iteration with the more brightly coloured clothes, but in a cuter chibi-like style. Sketches of the same character as above as I was figuring out how to draw them. Sketches of the character above, one looking at a tiny bug, and one walking.

My little four-eared-fennec guy!

#originalcharacter #characterdesign
A Person with four white fennec fox-like ears and two antlers that mostly look like twigs. They are wearing a big warm scarf and loose and flowing but thick outer layer in earthy tones. Their left hand is wrapped in fabric and they're pulling the scarf down like they're about to speak, looking off to the side. On their face they have white dots under their eyes looking a bit like scales, and similarly markings on the forehead. Their hair is white like the ears and a bit longer than their collarbone.

Under the fading evening light ☀️

#theapothecarydiaries #apothecarydiaries #kusuriyanohitorigoto #maomao #jinshi #jinmao #薬屋のひとりごと
A black and white comic strip of Maomao with 7 panels. Of the three on the top one is blank, in the second Maomao looks to the left and in the third she lets something drip out of a vial into a cup. The panel in the middle is the largest, showing Maomao in her woskshop surrounded by hanging herbs and flowers. The bottom three panels show her looking at something off-screen, grinding more herbs with a mortar and pestle, and then sighing. The second comic strip with another 7 panels. In the top one Maomao looks to the left again, surprised at a noise. Panel two to 5 in the middle show Jinshi standing in the door to the workshop, sparkling as usual, and Maomao greeting him with a smile. He is backlit by the setting sun, but the flush at getting a smile from Maomao is nevertheless visible. Panel 5 shows him happily dissolving into many tiny hearts. In the bottom two panels he moves closer, putting his hand on Maomao's shoulder, who has a speech bubble with only one of her 3-part checklist having been checked off. In the last panel, Jinshi happily leans his head against Maomao's as he settles in to watch her work. Maomao has an angry little twirly above her head signaling her apparent displeasure, but there are many tiny hearts all around them.

Sneak peak and also spoilers exclusively for the like, three people who see my posts on here. 🌱

These two will be insufferable. Even though Rys (Lynx guy) has yet to make his appearance in the comic as I'm drawing it right now. But soon!
Three sketches. One bigger one to the right, of a human looking guy with a ponytail grabbing a feline looking guy by the chin and kissing him. Feline guy has the lynx ear tufts and looks surprised. Sketch two to the left has them also kissing with lynx guy lookin surprised, but no grab this time, only kissy. Sketch three is lynx guy nuzzling and/or rubbing his face against the side of ponytail guy, ears pinned back. Three sketches of lynx guy, looking mostly human with only the lynx ears poking out of his curly hair. Sketch one on the right is him holding something, looking confused, with his ears turning outwards. Sketch two on the right also is him napping. Sketch three on the left is lynx guy nuzzling his face to ponytail guy's, while ponytail guy looks surprised. A sketch of ponytail guy kissing Lynx guy's cheek. Lynx guy scrunches his face real scrunchy and has his ears pinned back.

Lighting practice! Specifically working on hard shadows and setting the mood.
A landscape illustration with train tracks in the front and an old broken sign that says "No T", and a hanging R and the shadow of an A. The sign stands behind the tracks in a grassy meadow, and in the back there are mountains with big clouds. The light is light and soft and rose, like a sunset behind the onlooker. The same illustration, but here the light is dark and blue shadows envelop everything, like the sun is half-hidden behind the big dark clouds. Some few rays shining from directly behind the sign. Again the same illustration but lit in a more green hue, with fog rolling across the meadow and hiding parts of themountains in the background.

Comic drafting is going surprisingly well so far! even if it's a very slow process lol

Story development has been going very well! Here are the three main darlings. I love them, all of them are so weird.
Three coloured sketches of the same guy with a green hood and dark, curled hair. Left is a portrait. He has slightly Middle Eastern looks with light brown skin, deep brown eyes and dark eyelashes. He has a bit of stubble. Middle sketch is waist up, he is looking at a bug on his arm. To the right is his full silhouette to show the outfit and character design fully. He looks mostly apathic and emotionless. Three coloured sketches of the same guy with a high dark brown ponytail. Left is a portrait. His ponytail is messy and the front half of his hair hangs artfully over his face. He has almond eyes and medium light skin. At the outer lower corners of his eyes is what could technically be considered makeup but could also be a smear. Middle sketch is from his thighs up, he is looking at off to the side, leaning against a surface and has his other hand up as if making a point. To the right is his full silhouette to show the outfit and character design fully. He is wearing a bow and the thingy with the arrows inside on his back. Three coloured sketches of the same person with with a light brown beret and a pink mullet. Left is a portrait. They have light skin and light brown eyes, eyebags under them. They're wearing a white coat and a dark crop top between brown and wine red. Middle sketch is waist up, they are leaning on a surface in front of them with both arms, smiling mischievously. The right is a full view of them to show the outfit and character design fully.

posting some behind the scenes for a new story I'm working on!

Ponytail guy is called Aoidos and he's an ass and I love him with all my heart.
#oc #ocs #characterdesign #originalstory
A sort of sketched and loosely coloured roster of five characters. They all wear clothes in earthy tones and half of them look very fit to go into nature while half of them absolutely do not. Two full body and coloured sketches of Apidos, wearing dark green-brown clothes and having a bow and arrows strapped to his back. And a small sketch of his eye and eye makeup, green below and in the outer corner of his eye. Kind of like an inverted eyeliner and slightly edgy. Four pencil sketches in a sketchbook of Aoidos looking one surprised, two shocked or exasperated, three annoyed, four surprised but also not really poroportional. Proper illustrations of Aoidos, still slightly sketched, but with a pleasing colour palette of earthy and more well balanced hues for his clothes. There are three of him, one is a closeup and a more realistic look at his face. He has almond eyes, a tan skin and a flat nose. His dark brown hair falls into his face. Two he is shown gesturing, a bow and arrows strapped to his back. Three is him very small and a full body look at him. Hair falls into his face in all of them, as part of his design.

Some forest concepts for a story I'm currently working on
A dark forest scenery, illuminated by a circle of light from what looks to be a torch. A dark forest scenery with an ominous orange glow further back. A dark forest scenery with foggy light from the back. Clearly a first draft with no proper lighting that makes everything a bit too dark to actually see.

A silly little Chibi tiny Wriothesley and tiny Neuvillette, drawn to look like the viewer is looking down onto them. Both have a little pouty face and their arms stretched out.

Ears.

#tighnari #cynonari #genshinfanart
6 doodled Tighnaris with their tall fennec fox ears in differnt positions. One has one ear straight and the other turned backwards as if hearing something from his back. Two has both ears back and is seen from the side, scowling angrily. Three has one ear straight and one bent down as cyno presses a gentle kiss on it. Four has both ears tipped forward in concentration, thinking hard about something. Five has both ears bent back and slightly sideways, drooping with his sad expression. Six has both ears ramrod straight and slightly bent back in attention, with a surprised face.

'I'll be done soon. Just have to change this one thing over here, and that one over- oh do I smell coffee?'

#haikaveh #genshinfanart
Digital art of Kaveh in front of a metal looking drawing tablet, dressed down to only his white shirt, Alhaitham leaning into him with a cup of coffee in hand. Kaveh's free hand gently cups Alhaitham's face, and he's looking down to where he is drawing with his other hand, focused on his work. A light green backgdrop is behind them, with little white dots.

Father's Day in Fontaine 💐

#Neuvillette #GenshinImpact #GenshinFanart
To the right, Neuvillette stands, with a confused expression. He is holding a romaritime Flower. To the left two Melusines are chattering or maybe giggling, turning away from him, having just handed the flower over. The Melusines look giddy and pleased. Neuvillette is holding his cane with his other hand, as if caught mid-action.

Have you ever wanted emotes of a little fox? With matching stream screens? Or with screens (also without text!) to use as background?

Well fear not! I have a shop now :3 ko-fi.com/dorliart/shop

#streamoverlay #emotes
A stream screen with a little fox looking out of the navigator window into the galaxy with the text "starting soon". A stream screen with a forest kind of environment, with a little fox to the right and a burning spaceship to the left. Text says "starting soon". 20 emotes of a little fox in a grey spacesuit with the title "unlucky navigator emotes"

"That way!!"

#genshinimpact #kachina #genshinfanart #genshinnatlan
A colourful illustration of the traveller (Aether), Kachina and Paimon on a white background. Kachina is sitting on Aethers shoulders, while he stands slightly bent down on her twirly, grasping the handle. Kachina has brown skin and her dark brown hair is braided up her head into her usual ponytail. Most of her hair in the ponytail is loose and coily, some of the braids remain, and the ponytail ends in a lighter shade. Kachina is sitting on his shoulders with her arm outstretched, motioning forwards while her and Aether's hair seemingly whip backwards in their speed. Paimon is floating next to them with a laughing expression. She and Aether look like in game, Aether with a fond expression. Kachina looks excited, and holds on to Aether's head with her other arm.

Neuvillette! I love him
#genshinimpact #neuvillette #genshinfanart
Neuvillette from the waist up, looking at the viewer with a serious face. His outfit has the usual flair of dark blue with light blue highlights and looks cool even though it's not fully accurate. His hair is off to the side a bit like swaying in a gentle breeze and the background is a gradient from blue to a soft rose at the bottom like a sunrise or sunset.

summary of my faves from 2024 🪸
#artworkoftheyear #artsummary2024 #artsummary
An artwork summary filled in with one of my artworks for each month, the spaces cut out for them in the shape of windows with a rounded top. The artworks are colourful and don't really fit together, but the individual cut outs look pleasing. On the left is a bigger space and it says “Masterpiece of the year”. One of the artworks with a nightsky and very bright nebula is repeated in there.

a breath of the wild
#zelda #botw #link
A blue-ish muted landscape from Zelda breath of the wild, with grassy fields and the twin peaks in the distance with the tower in front. A few clouds in the sky are getting slowly pink and a guardian's head is at the very front while link is running over the field somewhere in the middle ground. It looks like the sun is just about to rise.

the fallen angel

#goodomens #goodomensfanart
Crowley sits with one leg straight, one bent, having his arms at a very awkward angle high next to his face. He has long red hair, and there's is golden light spilling onto him, like someone opened a door to a dark room. He is surrounded by plants and his dark wings, sitting on cold black-tiled floor.

the aquarium

#goodomens #goodomensfanart
Aziraphale and Crowley sitting in a blue tinted room, leaning against each other with somber, or thoughtful expressions. The viewer is looking through a water tank, some sea grass shadows the pair. There is only a tiny fishy floating by, and the two of them look like sitting in a kind of hidden spot somewhere off to the side.

South Downs sunrise
#goodomens #goodomensfanart
An illustration of the cliffside in South Downs, England. A small house to the left with a tree and bushes that hide it, leaves curling in the wind towards the viewer. A stretch of grass and the cliffs are on the right with a bit of the sea visible. The sky is colourful but muted in an early morning kind of way with soft pinks, blues and yellows, while the clouds are shaped by strong wind and curled.

hopping on this train too ✨

Bluesky's open, quote one art to promote yourself! 👑
a small goblin staring up at the nightsky in awe. There is a huge nebula taking up almost the whole painting, with bright colours from a light purple to cyan, ocean blue and deeper blue's fading into the inky black-blue of the sky, all of it littered with stars. And framed by soft white clouds and at the bottom the meadow the goblin is sitting in.
