Two emblem commissions I wrapped up this month! One for @mechmonster.bsky.social and the other for @royalty.bsky.social
Stylized headshot of Nighteye, a fearsome amalgam. A single large green-yellow hued glowing eye sits amongst a cascade of reaching teeth. Energy crackles around the emblem. Headshot is set on a diamond shape. Stylized headshot of Origin-Royalty. She is grey and purple with a dark purple pair of horns. She has a wide toothy grin. Headshot is set on a diamond shape.

Annndddd an expression sheet of Kaliyah, completed for Exusia!
Colored sketches featuring 6 different expressions of a black and white feathered dragon. They are squinty, uhhh..."welcoming", alarmed, menacing, excited, and melancholy.

Knocked out a sketch-page comm! This one is for pisqcurio. I was asked to explore ideas for a naga version of Wyr, who is usually a dragon!
Page of sketches featuring different versions of a naga character and his features. A dynamically posed sketch of one version is colored, the rest are uncolored.

A sketch I liked from tonight featuring Idet and Kyrin
A very loose sketch of two kravosi (head-world species) character headshots: Idet (left) and Kyrin (right) stick their tongues out at each other as they disagree about something like mature adults.

Just more evening wind-down nonsense (teeth-flavored).
Colored sketch featuring a close-up of a hairy creature with huge sharp teeth. It's various hues of brown for the most part. You can't see its eyes (the focus is on the teeth). It's growling and salivating.

Another piece of work I don't think I shared publicly, this one from a couple years ago. This creature is a Thaed leviathan, revered and feared by the Kravosi almost universally. I've always called them caraskin, but I'm currently a bit wobbly on the name. They're one of my most beloved creatures.
An unfinished, greyscale painting of a caraskin, a leviathan from the oceans of Thaedin, one of my worlds from one of my world-building projects. In look it's a bit alien, a bit draconic, a bit cetacean, and a whole lotta crustacean.

Pickin' at that sketch in the small hours after work
Seadragon sketch, now with some color. Close up on the head. It's a WIP with sketchy lines all over, but the face has some definition.

I feel like who I am, especially as a creative is buried, maybe even lost. I can fulfill commission work and obligations fine, but trying to hold a personal idea is like cupping water. My mind is a sea of uniform noise where nothing jumps out, but so much is there. It makes me sad.
Sketch of a sea dragon poised on implied rocks with crashing waves. I worked incredibly hard putting shapes together until they looked like something I could work with, and turn into an idea, just for the satisfaction of an evening personal accomplishment after work.

"Told ya so 🎵 "

A very welcome compulsion to draw my girl, Idet.
A simple stylized drawing of Idet, a Kravosi girl (kinda like a soft-lookin' dragon humanoid) in a big sweater being sassy.

Finished up a behind the scene project for my VR people! If you've got the Origin avatar, I've made a nifty skin for it with normals and customizable .PSDs and everything!

So many good girls today. A memorial pet portrait I completed today.

Watercolor, watercolor pencils, white pen.

Commission I wrapped up the other day for some good girls! Thank you so much <3
Three anthro ladies taking a selfie together on a fall day. One is a dragon, one is a maned wolf, and one is a hellhound. The dragon holds up a peace sign with one hand and clutches the maned wolf's head to hers with the other. On the opposite side, the hellhound leans in, smooching the maned wolf on the cheek and trying to surround the other two in a hug. The maned wolf and laughing and holding the camera in the middle, and touching the hellhound's head with her free arm.

My warm weather sanctuary and food garden this year. Chaotic and full of critters! Most success I've ever had with a garden.

You know what, sharing a WIP of some lines I just finished up. Commission work

Fuck it, we ball.

Art Fight Team Crystals Card for Skollyson! It features a singular character, Hellobore, and says "feel free to interpret him as anything if that sounds more fun". For the I attack section it says " anything that strikes me in the moment". Friendly fire is checkmarked, revenge says "maybe sometimes". For types of characters Skolly has it says Other: "I mean, it's a shapeshifting dragon". Good luck out there everyone!

More OC sketches! A bunch of Lamau doodles I slapped some yellow behind. She is very near and dear to my heart

Gonna try to post some sketches and stuff that's gone vastly (even entirely) unshared from over the past few years.

These ones are sketches of Nadamat, a Kravosi OC of mine, and best boy that needs me to draw a lot more art of him for how involved he is in my stories
Painterly sketch of a kravosi (Skolly's headworld species) male named Nadamat, from the waist up. He is shirtless and orange with big heavy earrings and lots of scars. Rough sketches of Nadamat, the same kravosi male from the previous image. In one sketch he is sitting down, in the other you only see his back.
