📌 new pinned post, read 1st if following

🪻 I’m Aiks, a hobbyist artist who likes the sciences and drawing flowers! :P I work on 2 OC projects. My current main is Chronicles of Atomland, where I personify the periodic table (+ write stories about them.)

🏷️ OC tag: #atomland

Text reads:

“things to know before following…
(more may be needed as time passes)

1. Only posting (+ primarily engaging with) OC art,
especially from my OC project Chronicles of Atomland.

2. Please don’t give unsolicited criticism on art/OCs/etc.

2. No sharing my posts to platforms outside Bluesky,
or sharing stuff from my previous platforms (if you know) to Bluesky.

4. I click on things by accident.
If I follow but immediately unfollow you, that’s why.

5. While I’m an adult, I only engage (repost/favourite)
with SFW content. Don’t follow if you solely post NSFW.

6. I don’t do free art for others. Giving me art suggestions for my
OCs are ok, though!

7. Anything AI “art,” NFTs and “proship” will be blocked.“

Art of Atomland’s community gardens. It depicts herbs and carrots growing in alternating plots. In the upper right corner are some brown gardening pots, whilst in the left hand corner is a warehouse. Behind them, in the background, is the silhouette of Atomland’s apartments and some wheat.

Halfbody art of my OC Oskar. They are smiling with an open mouth, walking in the sea with their hand pointing at the sky. Fireflies can be seen flying around them. The background consists of a blue sky with clouds, a sea, and white flowers.

My new dnd character, Foxglove!

She's a 3 foot tall stout halfling barbarian with a penchant for violence, blood and guts, and the colour pink ✌️

#art #artist #dnd #dndcharacter

A character illustration of a cutesy halfling wearing a lot of pink, with two messy auburn pigtails on the top of her head. She's holding a bloody greataxe half the size of her in one hand behind her back, while her other hand is used to make a peace sign.

A scene of four characters standing under a red sky, surrounded by rocky terrain, tall rocks with red moss on them and red trees behind them.

A portrait piece of my ocs Echo and Elin, mother and daughter! Elin pokes Echo's cheek with a little smile while Echo laughs about it.

A sketch illustration of an original character, Emma. She is a doll, has pale skin and a prosthetic metal leg, long oily black hair, and purple eyes. She is wearing a purple dress with feather and wing motifs. She is posed gracefully, reaching towards a purple spotlight desperately.

An illustration of an original character, Ollie Ardor. They have brownish skin with constellation freckles, cloudy white hair, and ram horns, hooves, and tail. Ae are wearing a very simple outfit of a crop top and pants that go just below aer knees, with a translucent poncho above it all. They are smiling, falling through a sea of sparkly clouds.

A sketch illustration of an original character, Vivian Delacroix. They have pale skin, scars all over their body, short choppy brunet hair, and indigo eyes. They are wearing a long dark coat, with a blue undershirt, white pants, and long boots, fingerless gloves and a belt, and tears on the right shoulder and left thigh. They are smiling, holding their sword Verglas and a tied string to it behind them as they pose heroically in the air, icy winds around them and sword shining.

An illustration of two people, a large person with bird-like features, feathers, and countless wings, and a princess with long hair and a gown. Together, they are holding a pristine blade, and in the other hand of the bird-person, he is touching the face of the princess delicately. Behind the princess are 19 broken glass shards, each reflecting another perspective of her, with a range of smiles to frowns, and humans to beasts to nightmares.

A warmly toned digital painting of Luis and Dorian. the border is thick and dark blue, with doodles of snakes and apples lining the edge. within the border Luis and Dorian stand leaning against a wall of paintings. Luis is smiling and looking toward Dorian, holding a small black Jacob's sheep ram. Dorian is looking straight ahead with a look of disdain, holding a snarling wolf in his arms. The paintings behind them contain various plants: roses, foxgloves, thorns, and hemlock.

Hello #PortfolioDay!
My name is Julie, and I'm a character designer and creative writer currently between jobs. I'm currently developing a fantasy webcomic, and the ref sheets below are a couple characters from said project! 🌟

Email: [email protected]

A drawing of two Black people embrace and pose. One wears planet themed glasses and the other wears tv error screen themed glasses. They both have stars over their heads.

A simple reference sheet for a fantasy wheelchair user. He has bull horns, vitiligo, and standing prosthetics in the last image.

A simple reference sheet for a fantasy philosopher and orator. They have marbled black and white skin in the first and last drawing, and brown skin in the middle. The joy has left their face in the image marked Arc 4.

Happy #PortfolioDay everyone!! 🎨✏️🌠

My name’s Justin and I’m a 2D Generalist based in Canada.

I do lots of 2D Animation, Rigging and Storyboards on Toonboom Harmony and Storyboard Pro but in my free time I love drawing fanart and my OCs from my #Jinkoverse project!

Behind them is an expansive view of space and the stars within it.

An illustration of Jinko, Yusah and Pola walking down some stairs into the city.

They’re all wearing casual outfits:

Jinko’s sporting a nice baseball tshirt with some red shorts and a grey backpack

Yusah’s wearing a black v neck tshirt with brown pants and a crossbody bag

Pola’s wearing a nice yellow summer dress with white stripes and a brown handbag

A Pride themed Illustration featuring the cast of Jinkoverse at a Pride Event. Everyone is covered in confetti and is wearing Pride Flag themed bracelets corresponding to their represented identities.

Illustration of younger Jinko and Yusah playing in the Flemo Botanical Park. Jinko is dressed up as an Astralnaut wearing a cardboard box as a helmet and carrying an Alien plushie while Yusah is carrying a Basketball.

Day 13: color palette challenge!
🌟 I wanted to use the color palette challenges as an opportunity to draw OCs I don’t pay as much attention to!
So here’s Fergus (he/him)…my stern yet responsible metalworker :0

Portrait of Fergus, the personification of iron, looking to the side. It’s colored in shades of brown and pink. The background is yellow with pink patches resembling rust. The text reads “Fe”.

Hey, hi, howdy! Happy #portfolioday to one and all! :)

I go by LeafSaw and I absolutely love OCs and will probably do your DTIYS if you post one.

🧡 I've also got a webcomic on Tapas, called Deck! tapas.io/series/rigge...

Acer and Clover, my OCs, on an empty subway.

Harrier, OC of midnightcoffee.bsky.social, looks into a mirror with the word "smile" written on it. Her reflection takes a picture of her. Beside her is the name of the webcomic she comes from, Hi, Strangeness: https://hi-strangeness.com/

A textless page of Deck. Acer stands to complain to a robot at the newsstand.

My OCs Ollie, Scout, and Chain in battle-ready poses.

A digital rendered illustration of two autumn eladrin posing, looking at the viewer, one laying their head and hands on top of the other's. They are mine and my friend's original characters. They are both pale-skinned with orange hair and beards. Accolon (top) has golden eyes with black sclera and Estel (bottom) has green eyes with white sclera. They are both covered in golden jewelry. Estel has flowers in his hair and wears a burgundry v-neck top and autumnal makeup. Accolon has a green to black gradient around their eyes, on their arms, and at their ears. The background is indicative of a tavern.

A rendered digital illustration of two original characters kissing. One is a pale-skinned firbolg with long, beaded brown hair and hooves wearing a large brown coat and blue embroidered cardigan. He is leaning down dramatically to kiss his partner, a dark blue-skinned elf with chitinous armour and tight, dark clothing. They also have gold markings on their upper arms and face, and they stand on their tip toes to kiss the firbolg. They both stand on a well-worn path in a flower field in early spring, snow still melting, with green trees on the horizon.

A rendered digital painting of two men as a study of Springtime (Pierre Auguste Cot). One man is a scruffy tan-skinned human with pulled up black hair, and the other is an elegant, pale autumn eladrin with flowing red hair with flowers in it.

A rendered digital portrait of a blue-skinned fairy with a long blue mullet and blue morpho-inspired wings. They are smiling widely at the viewer. They have dark blue/purple moth-like antennae, white whiskers, and a spectral white unicorn horn. They have freckles and a pink blush across their cheeks. The background is a dark purple to gold gradient, with the gold centred around the character's head.

Brightly colored illustration. A blue cat magician Cerulean is riding happily on a carousel. All around are confetti and colorful balloons. There are magical stuffed animals holding onto each other or magic wands that have ribbon trails. All of the objects are floating in a liminal space.

Concept poster for "One Last Encore". Features Tài, a serious looking singer with casual dress. He stands dead center with a guitar and a mic stand, staring us down with determination. Behind him are different characters flanking his sides, bowing to the audience. To the left is more colorful and features monsters, a bird woman, a frog guy, and a katydid girl. In the foreground there are monsters' hands clapping. To the right is all sepia and old. There is a woman and two men bowing, but their eyes are closed. The last man with glasses holds a vintage looking radio. In the foreground there are human hands clapping. In the way back is the moon demon, Nguyệt, with a sly smile. The moon lights his backside, and music plays towards the moon.

Turnaround of an anthropomorphic frog character for "One Last Encore"

Several object head dices wielding weapons. However, the D20 is a bard and behind are images and scenarios of successful rolls with wildly exagerated results.

Dropping in to say hi #PortfolioDay :] I'm Chi and I'm pretty normal about drawing OCs and generally anything that has to do with The Character. Promise

🔗: froglucose.carrd.co

A digital drawing of my original characters, Regina and Ankou. Regina has long, curly black hair partially up in puffs, as well as a mole under her right eye. She wears a green jacket with a yellow button-up shirt, black jeans, and yellow boots. Ankou has short, uneven white locs that cover their eyes, and they wear a wide, triangular black hat with a belt across it, a gray shirt, a white skull necklace, and a black cardigan, maxi skirt, and boots. They stand behind a pink background.

Both of them slightly lean toward each other, making a heart shape with their fingers. Between their bodies, there is a red heart, and in the background, there's a collage of the two interacting, surrounded by borders of red roses. Regina and Ankou can be seen chatting together at the top, getting frustrated and embarrassed on the sides, and leaning in to kiss each other at the bottom.

Digital drawing of my OC, Minnie, who smiles as she points a finger at the screen. The background behind him is dark pink, and there's a sparkle next to his face. Minnie has pink locs with gold charms in them, a mole underneath her eye, and hexagonal glasses, and she wears a white dress shirt and a purple vest with blue diamonds on it.

Digital drawing of April O'Neil swinging a glowing, green and yellow mystic bat. Her burgundy hair is kept in a pair of afro puffs, and she wears red-frame glasses; a black choker; a light green varsity jacket; a long, yellow scoop-neck top; navy capri leggings; and yellow high-top sneakers.

A digital drawing of Hatsune Miku in her Project Voltage Live outfit, which consists of a red and black dress, red and black leggings, and white-yellow boots. She has blue, green, white, and yellow multi-colored bubble braids, and she holds a pokeball in one hand and a microphone in the other. In the background, she's surrounded by glowing music notes.
