Hunter bug/mantis pooltoy, loosely inspired by Scyther and the IW Gryphon. People say she looks like a Terminid, though.

A pencil sketch of a mean-looking ride-on insectoid toy, with big scythe forelimbs.

A late night doodle, featuring a Suzaku, and the crew hoist atop it, learning a valuable lesson on the woes of being underprepared.

#inflation #inflationart

Palworld's Suzaku, a strange bird, being completely swollen and used as a platform for a Leezpunk and a Chillet, all while making their grand escape. The Leezpunk holds a large sack behind their back, whilst Chillet merely holds binoculars. The latter warns the other two of a terrible plight that's fallen upon them.

"bad news, iggy."
"can't use the binos, not shaped for me."
"we may never see that homing missile locked circularly (crossed out) squarely on Suzy's bloated form."
"would've been nice to have the intel, but what can you do?"
"'least the weather's nice."

sure enough, a missile is locked right on them, fired from a distant Oil Rig.

Artist's Note: yet another late night doodle! this one trying to itch a Palworld itch, been stuck on my mind for a while. otherwise no real insight, but I do gotta ask... Not including the Xenovader I was comm'd, how much Palworld inflation is there, really? Chillet's popular, Leezpunk's got a few, and then there's one or two other folk in the way, but I can't think of too many Pals manifest into funny spheres.

maybe Pocket Pair could give us full incense idk

Still kinda figuring the guy out, but I was suggested to make a Pal OC, so... what else but a Sootseer?

I'm calling the guy "Vazz-33" for now.

Doodle time, Dr. Starline inflation!
Clothes make the man they say, but more importantly, clothes make for really good, rounder shapes of inflation cause of how they accentuate the curves. Starline may primarily just wear a jacket, not even pants or nothin, but hey, it's a snazzy jacket!

Sketch drawing of the platypus man Dr. Starline from the IDW Sonic the Hedgehog comics. Starline has been air inflated into a very round, helpless, useless shape; leaving him wide-eyed, flailing, crying in embarrassed flamboyance a little, etc

and since I really wanted to remix the design beyond a simple "hey put clothes on the guy", actually processing what and how I wanted to remix was

a small process

Kinda shocked I forgot to share this here, a small birthday gift for @nelovince.bsky.social in honor of Augustine and Vex's ongoing rivalry between blimp and now-a-pooltoy-whoops.

#inflation #inflationart #AreoOC

Description: Augustine, an anthropomorphic Kirov Airship, lounges comfortably (complete with tanning mirror!) upon Vex, who is both an anthropomorphic Stealth Tank mk III, and also currently a very, VERY oversized pooltoy, reaching front to back of the very pool they're in.

Augustine: "(Revenge is dish best served cold, Да? Then tell me, how is pool water?) (Would check myself, but you are in way.)"

Vex is not thrilled about this.

In the background, two things of note are occurring.
On the left side, several Flak Cannons fire in the air, shooting down some Rocketeers.
On the right side, a massively inflated Typhoon Attack Submarine floats on the ocean surface, with a Dreadnaught nearby for scale.

Author's Note: haaaaaaah, this took a hot second for me to make. It's something of a tradition for me to gift Nelomet some birthday art of both Augustine and Vex interacting in some way, shape, or form. Wouldn't have him without her, and in a weird way may have given me some appreciation for anthropomorphic vehicles. Besides, as I may or may not have shown below, the pair was due for a sequel to an old stream comm I did for the guy.

side note, god making fences line up with shading sucks, especially if you do what I did and copy-pasted each post. friggin AUGH.

Final Time: 12h 11m

Commish for @areoants.bsky.social

A round and bloated Scrafty and Leezpunk, trading some full incenses and a bag of 9999 berries, resulting in the two of them bloating up. Leezpunk is laughing perched on top of its belly while Scrafty is losing balance

this is a sequel piece to a thing done on stream about maybe 4 years ago? yeah

Augustine, largely bereft of features, lies haplessly within a pool, as Vex lays on his back atop the Airship with his own tanning mirror.

Augustine: "I fucking swear little man, once Service Depot finds wat to reverse this, you are top dog on shit list, you hear?"
Vex: "yeah sure whatever babe"
