Sketchbook page with all kinds of characters in different scenarios, mostly chibi art. A WIP from a sketchbook page, featuring four characters from the story «Everholt». Seems to be a storybook-inspired piece, with medieval references. Digital piece from ArtFight. A character - that seems to be a dog - is holding a cup with a warm drink in it, while enjoying the morning sun. Digital piece from ArtFight. Depicting a young, humanoid child covered and frightened, in front of a gorgon face with lit up eyes and screaming mouth, its many snakes hissing.

LRP - I have seen that whole thing of "how to make things appealing? how to make people like your OCs?" pop up and man it's just so consumerist in nature
In my opinion, what makes a character appealing and makes others interested is when you care about them!

A former "friend" asked me "how do you make characters that are appealing?" and I had no direct answer.

"I just make characters and sometimes they wind up being keepers?"

They got legit offended as if I were hoarding some magical creative secret from them.

Naw man, just make things.

"how to make ocs people will care about" "how to design appealing ocs" nah dude all you need to do is be unapologetically and completely obsessed with your blorbo(s) and the rest will fall into place!!! that's rly it!

Ra'gna Tatterfin is up for grabs!
The price is, as always, 90 USD
(and a reminder that any detail about the adoptable can be changed up once you buy 'em)

[ #anthro #fish #merfolk #pirate #characterdesign #adoptable #adopt #Art #ArtSky #украрт #УкрАртПідтримка #cardiart]
a drawing of an adoptable character - a swordfish pirate of the old seas! Ra'gna Tatterfin is a big and bulky pirate lady. She's wearing comfortable and practical clothes that don't restrict any movements - an open half-jacket with tattered bits where the sleeves were torn off, a big waist-wrap on top of which sits a leather wrap and a thinner waist-wrap, all that topped of with a leather belt. Over one shoulder is another belt with two pistols strapped to it. She's also wearing baggy pants with a vertical stripe pattern and some simple "boots" (I'm calling them boots but really they're more like those leg covers that leave the heel and front part of the foot open). Atop her head sits a pirate hat, a green feather sticking out on one side, with a red bandana underneath. She has some jewelry, mostly piercings in her tail and left ear. Some scars can be seen on her body - a few smaller vertical scars on her lips, some scars on her muscular arms and a big one on her chest. That last scar covers a lot of the area where her right breast was and then stretches, getting thinner, towards her left clavicle. In her right hand is a wooden mug of booze and in her left is her preferred weapon - a scimitar. the text reads: "RA'GNA TATTERFIN swordfish pirate of the old seas adoptable * fearsome pirate yet has a fun and bombastic personality * loves a good pint or ten of booze, no matter what kind! * adored by women of all kinds as she's known as a very gentlewomanly lady who knows how to treat her lovers right
