𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙀𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙮 : Erzulie in Dea's outfit
@deamarii.bsky.social

These two had already similar vibe outfit wise so it felt quite fitting. (And I always like to revisit this character, she's a blast to draw)

Bravo encore et bonne continuation !
A character sheet for Ching Shih, the Pirate Queen, dressed in red and gold. A cartouche describe a summarized background : "300 ships, 40.000 men, and a woman, a queen, commanding them all, under a crimson flag. Often dubbed as the most successful pirate in History, Zheng Yi Sao, also known as Ching Shih, led one if not the largest pirate fleet that ever existed. Ruling with a iron fist over the China Sea, her raids stroke fear in the heart of people all across the coast and the government. Having successfully resisted against european ships trying to take her down and after accumulating riches beyond reason, she used her position of superiority to accomplish her greatest feat : Negociating for a full official amnesty for her and her men. (And letting her keep the treasury.) A ludicrous deal for sure, she was the Pirate Queen after all, there was no way she would get such a pardon ! And yet... through arguments and quite a bit of threats, she obtained it, in full, allowing her to finish her life in a way that many pirates could only dream of : Rich, old and free. A strong story for sure, but why choose it as the base for the first of the Guardians ?Well, Anansi, Thoth and Papa Legba knew that their little loophole was quite legally dubious. A regular ruler type would have been unfit to lead such a weird operation. But a pirate queen ? Of course, the three gods would have to polish their manuscript to iron out any potential threats, but that was quite the golden candidate indeed."

A closeup of a drawing : A tall elvish woman with a big smile one her face, standing on a small wooden bridge in the swampy city of Cheydinhal (From The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion). She wear a mix between a metallic armor and blue coat that she is wearing quite incorrectly. Her design is asymmetrical, showcasing her inherent messiness.

Hello hello, I'm Slin.
I'm currently in a huge phase of experimentation with my techniques but overall : I draw stuff
"Lady Serae in Cheydinhal" -Rythe Lythandas, Oil on Canvas, 4E 1. A tall elvish woman with a big smile one her face, standing on a small wooden bridge in the swampy city of Cheydinhal (From The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion). She wear a mix between a metallic armor and blue coat that she is wearing quite incorrectly. Her design is asymmetrical, showcasing her inherent messiness. A portrait of a mischievous goblin girl with a purple beret, smiling like if she was planning something nefarious A woman with white eyes, flowing straight black hair, a loose white shirt and a red dress held together by some heavy rope. She is holding a candle cast in glass like a lantern, and a skull is floating above her otehr hand. Half of her head and upper body is gone, melted like wax. Said wax is dripping. She appear to be floating. The painting used as a reference is also shown : "Magdalene with the Smoking Flame" by George de La Tour, 1642) A colored doodle showing Dr Bell and Dr Jung, two SCP OC. One is a tall man of Indian descent, with a soothing beauty to him, waving at the camera calmly. While the other is a ginger woman, obviously angry, flipping the camera off while holding her coffee with her other hand. #art #ocart #SCP #oc #originalcharacter

The shock. The horror.
A very quick doodle showing Serae from a previous post in a chibi way learning with shock and dismay from the painter Rythe Lythandas that she will have to stay still if she want her portrait to be painted correctly. Something that her hyperactive self probably didn't expected

"Lady Serae in Cheydinhal"
-Rythe Lythandas, Oil on Canvas, 4E 1.

It really was supposed to be just a quick portrait study but I was compelled to expend it by forces beyond my control.
So here is a very old Elder Scroll OC, brought back from the depth of Oblivion !

This was supposed to be a simple portrait study, but it is getting out of hands-

I guess we could call it MMA fighting on divine steroids-
Agrat bat Malhat, the Demon Pugilist, dressed in her crimson fight suit, jumping at the camera with a fist ready to punch you. Now that I think about it, the pose kinda look like that one Markiplier punch meme. She has a massive grin on her face. My OC version of the demon Agrat bat Mahlat and the angel Samaël, engaging in very close combat. Samaël is using golden/angelic sharp weapons while Agrat is using her bare hand, as usual. Their faces are right next to one another as if they were about to kiss, which they'll probably do later. That one Cowboy bebop meme "I love the kind of woman that will actually just kill me" but with Samaël, my reinterpretation of the angelic figure.

Not much in the mood to draw due to IRL stuff, but still wanted to make this soothing piece while listening to water themes OSTs.

(featuring @deamarii.bsky.social 's OC I shamelessly kidnapped)
Two silhouette from the back, one of a woman and the other of a round dog, looking at an aquarium through a very tall window. A giant manta ray as well as multiple fishes are on the other side. The all scene is tinted blue.

Well, it's going to be interesting seing other people's processes like that!
I'm Slin and I draw as a hobby
My sketching process is chaotic and every changing from one piece to the next. (In other words : idk what I'm doing-)
But often it goes :
Draft > Sketch and/or Line > All the rest
A rough draft with some design research and thumbnails A messy sketch Some cleaner lines (half of them are gonna be erased later-) The finished piece : A woman with white eyes, flowing straight black hair, a loose white shirt and a red dress held together by some heavy rope. She is holding a candle cast in glass like a lantern, and a skull is floating above her otehr hand. Half of her head and upper body is gone, melted like wax. Said wax is dripping. She appear to be floating. The painting used as a reference is also shown : "Magdalene with the Smoking Flame" by George de La Tour, 1642)

I have a ton of character in dire need of an update as I'm learning new stuff in art, one drawing at the time.
A lot of my characters are inspired by myth and history, but also sometimes classic piece of arts.

Glad to have a place to yap about them, and see people yap about their own !

She appear to be floating. The painting used as a reference is also shown : "Magdalene with the Smoking Flame" by George de La Tour, 1642) A fantasy reimagining of the classical painting "Girl with Pearl Earing" by Vermeer. Here she have an armor under her clothes. She also have a huge flail like weapon resting one her shoulders but with a massive pearl dangling from the chain. She is looking somewhat pissed off. Her name is written in the background : Parel, the Crystal Paladin. A character sheet representing Bloody Mary. She appears as a lady with pure white skin, crimson hairs and deep black eyes. She wears a toga partially colored in blood. She have a massive narcissus flower pin on her shoulder. Her face is cracked like a mirror. She is smiling. She is also emerging from a physical mirror at her feet. On the side are a bunch of head turns and a chibified version of herself waving a trans flag. There is also a background capsule reading : "When beautiful Narcissus felt in love with his own reflection and was metamorphosed into a flower by mysterious divine means, few paid attention to the clear waters under his roots. His reflection, tragically cut from its source, was forced in that cruel twist of fate to develop a sentience of its own. Cruel, yes, that is the word, for all she could feel was the cold infinite darkness trapped behind every mirrors. Forgotten by Gods and mortals, only able to exist when one would look into their own reflection, she survived, molded by the legends her scattered sightings ended up birthing all over the Realms. But when her tales piqued the curiosity of Anansi, the Master of Stories, and he spoke her name thrice in the dead of night, she was finally able to break free from her prison of glass after nearly 3000 years. She is eager to form the human connections she observed longingly from the other side all of these years. However, even though she is extremely extraverted, her creepy appearance, her lack of understanding of the concept of privacy as well as her broken social cues makes her journey out of loneliness still very much a work in progress. But she is trying her best !" A character sheet of an OC Yuki Onna, the Last Frost Spirit. She appears as an almost uncannily slenderish woman with pale blue skin. She wears a blue kimono that is cut in a way as to frame her head entirely. A snowflakes can be seen on her belt. She is also floating above the ground. Her dark hairs are extremely straight and goes all the way to her feet. Her design is almost perfectly symmetrical. On the right side of the sheet, we can see multiple angle of her head, showing her owl like nose. There is a cartouche containing the following text : "When the Pantheonic Accords were signed, many lower mystical beings, now forbidden by law from using their powers on the Neutral Earth, decided to go back to their native Realms. “Why stay when we can’t even have fun with the Sapiens anymore?” “For peace and quiet.” she responded as the rest of her kind left the frozen mountains of Japan. Yuki Onnas were not known to be social animals to begin with, but she was in a league of her own. A true hermit who came to this plane not for the freedom, but for the silence. While her sisters were tricking or helping the humans of this universe, she was content with staying in her little abode, hidden behind the snow, enjoying the sound of the cold wind and the noise of the frozen nature. And now, with the accords, even her kin would not bother her anymore. That’s when an unwanted visitor started to appear, behind her reflection on the icy walls, the woman who would change her forever. But not before annoying her for years that is-"

"The Vanitas, said to have been forged by Death herself, are dangerous artefacts who might not consume the mind of their warlocks, but do devour their body.
Slowly. Inexorably.
A ticking clock for a lot of power, a good deal for those who wants- no : NEEDS one thing done."

I never thought about giving them a preferred type, but what I do know is that whatever Ona's was, Mary was definitively not that-

As for the others, it really depends : Some do, other don't. And one is into every types so that's kinda cheating.
A close up of two chibi head, one is pale white with crimson hairs (Bloody Mary), the other is blue and stern (Yuki Ona). The red one is hugging the blue one all happy, while the other is just grumpy at the situation.
