Got a little #wip to show off. :}

It's not every day I get to work on my own commission for one of my characters, but I've wanted a sketchpage from @noctemtenebris.bsky.social for a long time. XD

So have a preview of what's coming. :}

A flat colored image of an alien creature, completely covered in feathers. She is lavender cyan in coloration, with a gem on her forehead, containing stars. She is snarling at the viewer, her clawed hand lifted. She has four, long ears with feathers lining the edges and tips. A feathery mane is on her chest and head. A headshot of the same alien character. She is looking at a collection of alien flowers, resembling a mix of a stargazer lily and a calla lily. They are purple and cyan in color. A close up the same alien character that is covered in feathers, with a giant, white hand scruffing her neck. She is not thrilled about the situation. Her tail is and lower body is curled up. A close up of a full body of the same alien character. She is letting out a roar, as her torso has opened up, revealing an eldritch maw of purple and cyan flesh, four tendrils coming forth, as the opening inside is glowing white. Several sharp teeth are protruding from her neck, down her torso.

Canonically, Rhen actually makes her own flower, which has the nickname the "Dreampath Lily". It contains a powerful sleeping agent, that acts as a sort of gateway into her "Dreamscape", a special realm that exists on its own plane of reality.

Its design is based on the Stargazer and Calla Lily.
"Talèsolvya" -- An alien flower, resembling a lily. Its stem and leaves are a deep purple color. The flower itself has six long petals that slightly fold downward, with a bulb in the middle. It is primarily a dark purple color, with faint spots decorating the petals. The petals are outlined in a cyan coloration.

🌿 Share your OC and a plant you associate with them 🌿

I use flowers a LOT for my characters.

For Austaryia-Rhen in particular, it's lilies. Specifically, it's the Stargazer Lily. :>

Symbolizing ambition, while giving an impression of gazing upwards to the stars.

Chibi art of an alien species, a hybrid between a Wienavar and a Sidériah, in her primal form. She is covered in feathers, having colors of pale lavender, cyan, and black. She has sectoral heterochromatic eyes that are lavender and cyan, with vibrant silver pupils. Her markings bear similarities to monarch butterflies. She has four long ears, with feathers lining the helix and tip. There are gems embedded in her shoulders, chest, and forehead, containing cyan and purple nebulae and stars within them. A photo of a Stargazer Lily. It is pink with dark pink spots along the petals, a white edge, and a star-like yellow within the center.

Finally finished the inks on this one! ;v;

This is meant to be a reference piece for both my Wienavar and Austaryia-Rhen's primal form. The normal Wienavar have only two ears, while Rhen has four ears and a gem on her forehead.

Two side view headshots of an alien creature. Their face resembles a feline, with long ears that have feathers lining along the edges, and the tip. There is a mane of feathers on their head. The feathers on the left are at rest, while the feathers on the snarling pose on the right is raised. Two side view headshots of an alien creature.

Wanted to have a good reference for a profile shot of Rhen's primal form. There's a snarly variant in the works too, but I'm still drawing in feathers for that one.

I also wanted to show the feather mane at rest, as opposed to raised. XD

You ever look at your own character and are like...

"I just want to bully you, pull your ears, and shove you into a locker"? :3c

Affectionately of course.
