It's my birthday everyone! To celebrate the fact I should not exist and yet I do I invoke the Bluesky right of art sharing!

Please share my work around and let it be known that I'll be available for work pretty much immediately in 2026. DMs and email are open!
Mwindaji, Remnant Leader Image of Mwindaji, a named Remnant (a type of living weapon in Ha-Nahn that is formed when a weapon absorbs so much hatred and malice from its owner that it tries to keep on fighting even after that person dies) stalking forward through an eerie yellow orange night with a full moon. She wears a purple torn and tattered garment with great blades for her arms and a masked, eyeless face. She leads a small troop of others behind her as though prepared to destroy an unsuspecting village. Her body is full of indications of damage from previous battles and yet she still exists. Ayrmael, God of Creation A digital illustration of a massive divine dragon with purple and gold coloration. The massive beast flies over a mountain city with floating islands all around. As it turns in the sky its wings trail through clouds. The creature has a thick almost gorilla like body and stripes like a tiger but made of something like gold that seems to flow beneath its skin. High Priestess Tarot Card An image of a woman in a blue dress seated upon a throne with moon symbols on it looking down imperiously. She is surrounded by stones, gnarled trees and a stone circle behind her head. Her hair moves as though it's being blown by a strong wind or moved by ocean currents. Her dress flows into a waterfall that turns into a pool that flows into the foreground. All Aboard A trio of characters seen on the deck of an airship. A woman in white with a black belt and reddish black undergarments stands with a boat oar over her shoulder, a compass in hand and looking to the left, her black/blue/purple hair blowing in the breeze. A buff man in a gray shirt and dark pants sits crouched on a clearly unsafe back part of the ship with a rake as a weapon. A woman stands on the back part of the ship under the mast and magical sail in a patchwork outfit with broken chains dangling from her wrist. Blue glowing crystals can be seen keeping the ship aloft.

SFW #artshare (I repost for reposts)

I only practice the color aspects of art, usually in fanart portraits. Most pieces are hobby / practice works using permitted illustrations, but I also take commissions to render color for clients with intent to try comics as well.

Show off your specialty!

Hi, I'm Manuel and I make mostly spooky art using charcoal and digital means!
Charcoal drawing of a face with smoke coming out of empty eye sockets. Somber digital painting of a strange bulky figure, hands vaguely outstretched, head alight. Ruins are visible on the horizon. Strange digital painting in strong colors of a white bird nesting in a person's head. Surreal charcoal drawing of an upside-down guillotine blade pointing towards a moon that could also be interpreted as a guillotine's head hole.

Nothing better than a quiet game of chess in a firelit tavern surrounded by warm friends.

Not up my par anymore, but still one of my fav.

2016 - 2025
A digital painting of a sandy desert-like valley with a single rock formation peaking out in the middle plane against a stark gray sky. A digital painting of a pond in the patio of a temple, covered in green duckweed with waterlilies floating about. A young woman with dark hair ascends the stairs in the middle of the canvas, holding a basket with pink petals that are also strewn on top of the head of the crocodile in the middle of the pond with streaks of red blood curling around its imposing figure. Yet the woman seems unafraid, as though her and the animal have a connection.
