i've never signed up for an artfight team so fast LETS GO TEAM FOSSIL

artfight.net/~steampunk_s...
A team card for Artfight team fossil. User is steampunk_swamp. It reads "I attack... Friends, then revenges, then bookmarks, then random! Best at humanoid, but I'm happy to try my hand at drawing all types of characters!" The card indicates the user does Friendly Fire and revenge attacks, and has human characters.

sometimes there's benefits of being my most fun character to draw and sometimes you get beamed the world's worst period cramps

slowly starting to get back into the swing of things... so heres two variations on divine! based on that one pinup that went around

#originalcharacter #sketch #illustration
A sketchy illustration of Divine wearing his angelic outfit, in a pinup pose lounging on a bed. He wears a mask with six wings and a white, blue, and gold outfit remniscent of priest clothing. He stares at his phone in the dark and reaches for a box of oreos, legs raised high in a stretch. A sketchy illustration of Divine wearing a casual outfit, in a pinup pose lounging on a bed. He wears a blue and white striped sweater, black shorts, white socks with a blue stripe, and docs. He stares at his phone in the dark and reaches for a box of oreos, legs raised high in a stretch.

Thursday #artshare time! please show me your artworks that feel like they're quintessential ~you~

a teensy bit foggy, a teensy bit bloody, and completely and utterly unfinished since it's far more about the vibes than about accomplishing anything. that's me!

sometimes characters just won't let you draw them in fancy software i guess. it took this guy 6 years to give me an appearance until i finally cracked open mspaint

#mspaint #sketch #originalcharacter
An MSPaint shoulders-up sketch of a character named Katsuhiko. He has badly dyed blond hair, multiple piercings in his hears, a tongue, nose, and eyebrow piercing, and slight stubble on his chin. He wears a studded black collar and a black leather jacket. Across his skin are patches of burn scars, notably over his left eye and cheek. The background is white, and reads "KATSUHIKO" behind the drawing.

been learning how to make designs with More Detail and More Layers and honestly its so much fun. this guy takes half an hour just to get dressed for the day

#characterdesign #originalcharacter #digitalart
A sketched reference sheet of a faceless demon-like figure T-posing in different layers of an outfit against a gray background. The figure has whiteish-blue skin, horns, a thin tail, and black hair in a ponytail. The first pose is wearing a basic white and navy blue uniform with leather gloves, belt, and weapon holsters. The text descriptions next to it read: "BASE - Horns curve backwards - Very well-patched clothes; damage is hard to notice - Weapon on left hip - Empty) holster on right thigh - Fingerless protective gloves - Thigh-high boots - Gold buttons on outer boot - Darker raised heels" The second pose has added some gold armor pieces on the left shoulder and the shins. The text description next to it reads: "+ARMOR - Pauldron on left shoulder (dominant hand) - Knee/shin guards" The third pose has added a long navy cloak that fastens around the neck and reaches down to mid-calf. The text next to it reads: "+CLOAK - Clasps in the front - Easily detachable - Split down center back"

honestly mspaint is so great for reducing the pressure to make something Really Good. no thoughts only oc designs

#identityv #identityvoc #originalcharacter #characterdesign #sketch #mspaint
Two sketches of a concept for an Identity V OC, labelled "IDV AU concept - Apothecary". The character is a tall, nervous-looking young man with glasses and short hair. The first sketch shows him in an apothecary's outfit, with a long leather apron, tall boots, and a potion holder at his hip. He's holding a vial. In the second sketch, he is wearing a plague doctor outfit with a face-fitting mask that has a cross stitched into it. Potions hang from a rope at his hip and he's holding a lantern.
