Final stretch of #ArtFight portraits for @ghostietea.bsky.social 's magical girl Sacha, @kurogalaxy14.bsky.social 's assassin Kira, and @vadimsunbear.bsky.social 's huntress Lily!

#art #oc #artfight2025
A portrait of Sacha, a girl with wavy dark hair, cut short. She wears a purple dancer's outfit and a black hear earring. Normally outwardly cheerful, here she is looking off to the side with an expression of melancholic contemplation. She is framed in a circle with a blue anemone at the bottom. A portrait of Kira, an assassin. He has short, straight black hair that ends in messy strands. He has a notable scar over his right eye, but most of his face is obscured by a black face mask. He wears dark leather armor and is glancing over to the side with a cold, hard look. A portrait of Lily, a huntress with vulpine ancestry and features. She has long, straight, dark hair styles with short front bangs and long side ones. She has long vulpine ears with dark fur and a scarred right eye. She is wearing a metal breastplate over a padded coat, and appears to be glancing at the camera out of the side of her eyes as if she were sizing someone up.

#ArtFight attack on @skyestuff.bsky.social 's gull griffon Polaris! Polaris has a couple of different forms but I tried to draw him in guy formation🍟

#art #oc #artfight2025
An anthro ring-billed gull griffon with light bluish markings, a large ear piercing containing a greenish jewel, and a french fry in his bill (positioned like a cigarette). He is wearing a black jacket and a grey graphic T-shirt with the words "Lettuce Farm" written on it. He looks into the camera with a cool-guy smirk and poses with one hand in a crooked peace gesture. An anthro ring-billed gull griffon with light bluish markings and a large ear piercing containing a greenish jewel. He is wearing a black jacket, a grey graphic T-shirt with the words "Lettuce Farm" written on it, and a black cowboy hat. He is posed holding a box of french fries in each hand while he screams with his bill wide open, french fries falling out. He appears as a giant spectral vision over a desert landscape in a manner that references the viral music video for Kirin J. Callinan's "Big Enough".

#ArtFight revenge for Jasmo from the Cafe Dot art discord! I drew their mermaid Talia swimming amidst a school of fish 🐟

#art #oc #artfight2025
A school of fish swims by with glowing yellow eyes shining through dimly lit green seawaters. Amongst them is a mermaid with greyish skin, blue fins, blue gills, and large, dark green eyes. As the mermaid swims by, she turns and makes eye contact for a brief moment before being obscured by the fish that she swims alongside.

#ArtFight attack against @gooiemuffin.bsky.social 's scrappy avian bard! 🎵

#art #oc #artfight2025 #avian
A pale Ishanni avian bard with curly grey hair, yellow sclera, and a scarred right ear. He wears a red shawl, a grey shirt, and dark, baggy pants. He has white, black, and grey wings resembling those of a mockingbird, and a guitar-like stringed instrument is slung across his chest. A lit cigarette protrudes from his mouth. The background consists of a yellow and white starburst pattern and a black nameplate with the moniker "Mockingbard" displayed upon it.

#ArtFight revenge against @psephrain8.bsky.social 's cryptid-hunter (and daytime veterinarian) Sybil Harlowe.

#art #oc #artfight2025
A pale-skinned woman with red contact lenses, dark lipstick and eyeliner, and a beauty mark high on her right cheek. She has long, straight hair worn with neat bangs in the front. Half of her hair is colored a bright pink, while the other half is black. She wears a wide-brimmed back hat adorned with a red ribbon, and a dark studded choker around her neck. She is dressed in a brown trenchcoat over a pink shirt, short black skirt, and fishnet leggings. One of her arms brandishes a silver cane, while the other holds her dumbo rat Avocado close to her face. The background consists of a yellow and white starburst pattern and a black nameplate with the woman's name, Sybil Harlowe, displayed in that one font that the Yakuza games like to use :)

#ArtFight portraits for @saltynametag.bsky.social 's space pirate Skip Intro, @gryffoon.bsky.social 's mechanical angel Empyreal, @spiritcrowart.bsky.social 's gryphon Modesty, and @cmykristyart.bsky.social 's wyvern rider Perry.

#art #oc #artfight2025
Skip Intro, a Corellian space pirate. A woman with curly dark hair tied in a ponytail. She wears dark eyeliner and lipstick, square earrings, and a grey cape with a fur collar. She winks and smiles as she produces a blaster from underneath her cape. Empyreal, a great mechanical angel created under circumstances at the limit of human understanding. A pale being with dark eyes, ornate forehead and cheekbone decorations, curved horns extending horizontally from the sides of its head, and long, flowing white hair. Two pairs of angelic wings extend from its head, one large set from the sides, and one smaller pair from the back of the head that bend upwards to form a halo. The entity turns to look at the viewer with an expression that conveys acknowledgement but little else that can be clearly interpreted. Modesty, an immortal demigod gryphon. He has the features of a gryfalcon (bird parts) and a maine coon (cat parts), with a yellow, raptor-like beak and pale plumage with dark stripes. He has distinctive bits of fluff at the end of his ears, and dark markings above his eyes that resemble thick eyebrows. He glances warily at the viewer with an expression of faint annoyance. Perry, protector of a timeless citadel along with his lifetime wyvern companion, Malchior. A man with short, light-colored hair dyed red at the front. He sports a short beard and wears ornate armor of crimson and black that is styled to resemble the frills and scales of his wyvern companion. A silver necklace hangs in front of his breastplate, and his gaze is directed away from the viewer as he regards something in the distance with a quiet determination.

I drew some of my characters wearing a few of my irl outfits on a whim after seeing someone else do the same thing. I kind of think they're cute.

#oc #sketch #art
A tall wood-elf with dark hair tied in a large bun and long bangs hanging off the sides of her head and a burn scar on the left side of her face. She is wearing a pink button-down shirt with the lowermost button undone along with a pair of denim shorts and light brown loafers. She stands in a relaxed, forward-facing position with her hands in her pockets, but her gaze is averted and distant. ALSO PICTURED, a red-skinned tiefling with yellow irises, a short bob-haircut, curled horns similar to those of a ram, golden scales on their cheeks and brows, and a silver nose-ring. They are wearing a close-fitting light green Tshirt with a open navy blue shirt-jacket on top. They are also wearing a pair of light grey jogging pants and black-and-white sneakers. They are posed with their profile facing the viewer as if in the middle of taking a step, while they make eye-contact out of the side of their head with a cheerful expression. Also, they have a tail that is a live snake. It it also making eye-contact with the viewer.

#ArtFight attack on Frogbert and Cirella from @whiteswordmoon.bsky.social :3

#art #oc #artfight2025
A small froglike creature sits atop the head of a blue-haired tiefling woman. The tiefling looks up at the creature with an expression of joy while raising her hands palm-up. The background consists of a yellow crescent moon motif on a navy blue background. Gold lines and light blue halftones radiate outward from the center of the composition, and the top of the picture shines with stars and sparkles. A golden crown symbol hovers above the frog creature's regal head.

Hello #PortfolioDay I am Shu, and I mainly do character design with a focus on stuff for games and 2D animation. I also build Harmony rigs, illustrate, and animate!

I am interested in helping people out with their game and animation projects.

#art #gamedev #animation
Illustration of two women dressed in luxurious ancient Greek clothing. One stands and hold holds a bundle of grapes aloft, while the other reaches to offer the first woman a glowing goblet. A large snake wraps itself around the bodies of both women, linking them together. In the background there are many decorative patterns representing Greek architecture and motifs. The women are meant to represent the mythological figures of Hygeia and Panacea. Illustration of a woman in a thick fur cape, gazing upon a ruby. The background is a complex geometric one with a sundial that frames the woman's face. Golden rays radiate outward from the sundial, dividing up what appears to be a swirling sky full of stars. In the bottom half of the image, areas cast in shadow by the woman's large cape also appear to glitter with stars. Portrait of a large, imposing man with a wide grin that is equal parts ferocious and playful. He has messy dark hair tied into a ponytail, a curly moustache, and a thick beard. He is dressed in a black armor that is decorated by many biological motifs. The pauldrons have a chitinous texture and appear to be rimmed with bone. The breastplate contains elements that resemble teeth and musculature, and in the center sits a large red eye. Character turnaround for a beleaguered sovereign. He is a small, frail, and tired-looking man. His clothes are plain except for an opulent red robe with fur linings. He wears a comically oversized and very heavy-looking crown that is beset with large jewels. The character is shown from 5 different angles, and additional references are provided for the character's underclothes and bare head.

A tall woman with a distant expression and short hair tied into a messy bob. She wears crescent-moon earrings and light red lipstick, and appears to be approaching middle age. She is dressed in a ceremonial plate armor of blue, silver, and gold, decorated with astrological and floral motifs.

His right eye has been replaced by a fake one made with red glass, and he is dressed in a heavy black armor decorated with biological motifs of bones, horns, musculature, chitinous shells, and eyes.

I also made portraits in this style for a few of my BG3 Tavs :)

#oc #art #bg3
Mazu Barenda, wood-elf elemental monk. She has medium-length dark hair tied in a bob with side bangs that frame her face. He looks far off to the side, exposing a large burn scar that crosses the left side of her face. Her forehead and right cheek are marked with monastic tattoos. She wears robes decorated with beads, metal discs, and ocean wave motifs. Alainne Coster, draconic bloodline tiefling sorceress. A red tiefling with curved goat horns, yellow pupils, black sclera, and golden-yellow scales on their cheeks and brows. They have straight, black, shoulder length hair, a portion of which is tied into a small ponytail. They are wearing a lamellar cuirass over a loose teal turtleneck shirt. They have a yellow bandana tied loosely around their neck, and have a simple silver nose ring piercing. Their expression is equal parts inquisitive and mischievous. Mamil Carillo Arriaga, half-orc open hand monk. His skins is a medium gray tone with reddish accents, and he is bald with a short brown goatee. His brow is furrowed and four tusks protrude from his closed mouth, bending the llps into a mild frown, and his eyes are contemplative. A plain gold piercing decorates his left earlobe, and he wears a simple but well-made shepherd's outfit with a brown coat, red vest, and plain shirt.

I did more character portraits, this time for some discord art friend OCs.

Characters belong to myself, @hobocufflinks.bsky.social, @whiteswordmoon.bsky.social, and others.

#art #oc #dnd
The Entrepreneur, an intrepid young woman with dark brown hair worn in a short bob. She wears a bright red beret, a light blue tunic, and a gaudy red robe with large puffed sleeves and a fur collar. Her expression is inquisitive and friendly, but faintly unhinged. A take on Hobocufflinks' Loki inspired character. He is a young man with sharp features and long, dark hair that ends in a long braid at the right side of his head. He wears a fine green tunic with a brown vest and a thick fur collar, and sports decorative silver adornments and piercings. His eyes are accentuated by dark eyeliner and his mouth is twisted into a wide sneer. Cirella, Whiteswordmoon's tiefling ranger. A light blue tiefling with upward-pointing horns and hair tied short with distinctive tufts near the ears. She is wearing a dark collared shirt decorated with white embroidery. Her eyes are golden with black sclera, and she is glancing over her shoulder with an expression of ethereal calm. Gareth Ironmane, a character from a Discord acquaintance. A middle-aged half-elf with short brown hair that curls at the front. He has solid, squarish face, a short beard, and a scar running across his left cheek. He wears leather armor over chainmail with padded sleeves and bright blue gemstone earrings. His gaze seems distant and melancholic, as if he is reflecting upon his tragic old man yaoi backstory.

Fulgenzio de Erba and Cenebet of Leptera

A new textured shading look for some characters from a silly setting I have been quietly working on.

#art #oc #axisfirmament
Fulgenzio de Erba, an indebted mercenary from the merchant city of Caritena. He is an intense and tired looking man with messy, shoulder-length hair, unruly eyebrows, and a short beard. There are dark bags under his eyes and his cheeks are gaunt. His moustache is immaculately trimmed and seems to be the part of him that is best maintained. Fulgenzio is wearing a dark metal breastplate under an opulent red cloak with a white fur-collar. A decorative gold rondel, styled as a sundial, is affixed to the collar of his coat, indicating his allegiance to the time-brokers who rule over Caritena. Cenebet of Leptera, a bureaucrat sorceress from the city of Nterroco. A composed woman with deep, unreadable eyes, pronounced cheekbones, pursed lips, and a sharp chin. She wears her hair in a simple, straight style with orderly bangs that cover her forehead. Her attire is an elegant dress in the minimalistic black-and gold favored by Nterroccan elites. The dress is accentuated with a decorative gold chestplate and a pale colored turtleneck. She wears red lipstick and earrings styled after the scales used by Nterroccan appraisers to measure the material worth of human souls.

I drew up some outfits I had saved on my hard drive. I also added a little ginkgo leaf pattern I painted in the background!

A woman poses in 3 outfits in front of a background of pink flowers and orange ginkgo leaves. The first outfit consists of a short white shirt and long baggy pants. The second outfit is a white blouse with a floral pattern printed on it. The third outfit consists of orange goggles and a white labcoat over green scrubs.

Birdshape

#photography #birds
A dark silhouette of a bird on a tree branch. The bird is a black-browed barbet (it is hard to tell from just the silhouette though). A greater flamingo naps in a curled up position. A blurry photo of a little egret standing in a newly-planted rice field. The bird is posed in a way that makes it tough to identify. Two warbling white-eyes engage in allopreening on a windowsill. The light of the bright blue sky behind them silhouettes the two birds as they preen one another.

Two silhouetted figures stand by a window in a room illuminated by yellow light. A piece of sticky yellow fly-paper hangs off of a window from pieces of blue tape. Various insects have been ensnared by the trap. Grave markers line the yellow walls of a church. A woman runs by them to the right, her figure blurred by movement as she turns her head away from the camera. Park tables and benches sit under a canopy of yellow fall leaves.
