A digital full body chibi (bebe) drawing of four characters. They are all standing on the same plane, the two on the left heading towards the two on the right while holding hands. The person on the far left is a girl with pale skin and light brown hair that reaches a bit below shoulder length. She wears a a sage green shirt, black jeans, and bright green shoes. To her right is a nonbinary person with pale skin and short brown hair. They wear an white cardigan over a striped crop top and light blue jeans, and multicolored neon shoes. On the right of them is another nonbinary person who looks like they just crawled out of a bush. They have pale skin, and light brown hair with a flower crown and twigs in it. They wear a multicolored poncho sort of thing over a green tank top, and loose flowy dark green pants. They have many gold jewelry pieces on them such as bangles and necklaces, and have their hands and feet wrapped in cloth. The far right is a brown man with dark brown hair. He wears a black sweatshirt over light blue jeans and black velcro sneakers. Taped to his forehead and hanging over his face is a sheet of white paper with a face drawn on it. They're all over a light pink background with a round dark pink shape forming the surface they stand on. Above them in the middle is a pink toaster, with the words "toasty" on the left and "team" on the right.

There're a lot of very cool creative folks--many still on itch--who've had their livelihoods threatened by bad actor payment processors and credit card companies. Support their SFW work. Support their NSFW work if it's still listed and buyable. Make sure they can keep on making cool stuff.

I helped a bit as a narrative consultant on HORSES working with a couple of the good folks at Santa Ragione. I hope you'll check it out, it's really like nothing else I've played before.

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Especially because now, we all gotta ban together and fight against a whole new form of imposter syndrome, which is this AI nonsense that just wants to take all our work and replicate it like we were just some sort of creative sausage to be repackaged for the masses.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

Strawberry sharkcake 🍰🦈 #art
An illustration of two thresher sharks stylised to look like they are made of strawberry shortcake. Their long tails turn into whipped cream, and their dorsal fins are strawberry halves. The top of their bodies is also a creamy white, while their underbellies are a soft brown. Strawberries float around them, one of them in the left shark’s mouth. Under them, and against a faded pink background, the text “STRAWBERRY SHARKCAKE” can be read. Perhaps the look of anxiety on their faces is because they fear not being able to eat enough cake before it goes bad?

As a bonus, I thought I'd do this little scene too.

It seems that Roberto took advantage of his denticle shedding to visit his tattoo artist friend Marina and give new meaning to his tattoos! 🦈✨

#shark #sharkfolk
An illustration of my two sharkfolk characters, Roberto, a great hammerhead shark, and Marina, a great white shark. Roberto is sitting on a small stool touching up his tattoos with his childhood friend Marina in her tattoo studio. The background shows pots of tropical plants, a table with tools, a floor lamp, and a window overlooking a garden outside.

#art #cuteart #gouache
Traditional art - a painting in acrylic gouache, showing a cute cartoony duo: a duck sitting on the ground, dressed in a yellow hat, checkered white-green neck bandana and with a strawberry shaped crossbody bag; and a little snail by their side. The two are hanging out in front of a leafy bush.

under the apricot tree 🌿🍊

#art #oc #ocsky #ttrpg
A digital waist-up artwork of a feminine smiling character with one hand touching their jawline gently while being under the apricot tree with a graveyard in the background. They have a warm green complexion, auburn hair styled into two bubble braids, intense orange eyes and branch-like horns sprouting from their head decorated with autumn leaves. She has a few moles on her face, especially two above her lips on her right; round orange berries hanging from her pointy ears. She is dressed in a colorful, layered dress with laces and flowy fabrics tucked into a two-colored (yellow and mint) corset. On one of her shoulders, there's a pink fabric resting. The colors are somewhat warm and dark with orange accents being most intense. There's a watermark at the bottom left corner: "hortensjjja" with a cute frog logo.

10 years later and i'm finally drawing Pokemon again...

#art #artsky #pokemon #doodle
A group of images/drawings of the Pokemon Scolipede. On the top left is the official art of Scolipede from the Pokemon website, and to the right of it is the same image, but with the opacity turned down to about 20%, where I then referenced shapes in the form. To the right once again, I drew the shapes of the form again, turned down its opacity to 25%, and drew a full Scolipede over it. Below those, I drew Scolipede again, but in a different pose, to test my understanding of the shapes, placement, and posing. To the far right is two drawing screenshots pasted onto my canvas from aerypear here on bsky. The top image is their own drawing of Scolipede as an example to show me how to use the shapes of the form, then another low transparency official art, with the shapes drawn over it. I wrote "thanks aerypear for these lol" below the screenshots, and "wow!" to the left of my final Scolipede.

#art #artsky #oc #ocsky #doodle #smithtoastr
A doodle of my OCs Smith and Harpur. Smith is stuck in his shirt, the top of his head barely poking out the neck hole, meanwhile Harpur stands next to him, holding up a phone, probably taking pictures to send to their friends. There is dialogue that reads as follows: "what are you even doing?" "stuck... [sad face]" "i see that." "help... [crying face]" "no." There is a parentheses in the bottom that says "he helped".

I think these two are my only OCs i've ever drawn kissing... i should fix that
An illustration of my characters Sebastian and Callion kissing in the rain, but their faces, and thus, the kiss, are hidden by a section of the umbrella Callion is holding. A sketch of Callion and Sebastian kissing, but the kiss is, similar to the previous image, hidden, but this time by a long strand of Callion's hair

idk how to caption this one without either making a joke or lore dumping more than i have energy for so take it as is

#oc #ocsky #art #artsky #smithtoastr
A digital sketch of my OC Smtih. He is in the process of putting his hair into a ponytail, the hair tie hanging from his mouth. His face is sweaty, and he wears no shirt, likely because he's too warm. His lack of shirt shows that he has a vivisection scar on his torso. He wears sweatpants, and the drawing is cut off above his knees.

A monochromatic piece of digital art on a light blue background. Drawn is a fullbody furry catgirl, with one angel wing and one devil wing. She's dressed in torn punk clothing and decorated with chains, belts, and zippers. She has heterochromia and is looking away from the viewer with a scowl.
