Meet the Artist: TroyCuevasDraws

I figured I should make my 13th post be a spooky meet the artist post because it’s my 13th drawing and I’m posting it on Friday, but I swear I didn’t planned it like that.

Perhaps, one day I’ll make a comic focusing on the backstory and reunion of Chuck and Lillian, and maybe I could even work on more comics for my other characters.

Mystic Magictober 2025 Day 31: Dream

Lillian would often dream about travelling across surreal places and reuniting with her beloved Chuck.

#drawing #artchallenge #traditionaldrawing #Halloween #ballpointpendrawing #mysticmagictober25 #originalcharacter #oc #Fairy #moth #goth #BlackShuck #webcomic
Lillian Hawkins (the goth death’s head hawkmoth fairy) is having a dream of travelling across surreal places, as she wants to see Chuck Blackwood (the unpredictable black shuck in human form) once more. Panel 1: Lillian walks across a fountain with a teapot that has water flowing out of the spot, the ground has a checkered pattern, and the trees have odd sorts of toys, tea cups, and a button on the leaves. Panel 2: Lillian walks down a sort of slope made out of a piano keyboard, a tree below has stars on the leaves, and a vase with wings flying in the air near to her. Panel 3: Lillian’s next location is near to a giant crab with trees and a small mountain on top of its shell, but Lillian is more interested on who she has spotted. Panel 4: Lillian and Chuck finding each other while standing on a warped road looping around a large globe model of the Earth.
