Thank you for hosting, Nodens!!💜

The illustration depicts a man and a woman lying on the green ground under a deep blue night sky. The woman has bronze skin, short disheveled red hair, horns, and a tail. She sits on the half-elf, half-spider man, who has long white hair and seven eyes. The woman’s name is Ruby, and the man’s is Kar’niss.
Ruby lays her hands on Kar’niss's chest, leans toward him, and smiles. He responds in kind.

An illustration of two figures embracing. The drider (spider-centaurus) man (Kar’niss) with long white hair is embracing a tiefling woman (Ruby) whose clothing consists of leaves and brunches covering her chest. The woman has short, red, disheveled hair, horns, glasses, pointed ears, and infernal scars all over her body. Her tail wraps around the drider's right hand. The drider is looking madly out from the behind of woman’s left hand, showing only the top part of his face with all his seven eyes

An illustration for this year's mermay (from mermaid and may) showing my OC Raven. Originally she's an aasimar, but in this drawing she's mixed with mermaid.
Here Raven is underwater among the algae, which change their shape when exposed to the current. Her right hand is clenched into a fist that radiates healing magic. Her left hand holds a large two-handed sword
She wears the top part of a heavy metal armor decorated with various flow patterns. The tassets on her "hips" are in shell form. The red piece of cloth wraps around her lazur scarred tail

An illustration of a purple-skinned elf lying on the bed, his legs raised and crossed a little. He holds a notebook in his left hand and a red feather in his right one. He's wearing a black silk robe with a fur collar and a purple belt. His long white hair is gathered into a high ponytail with bangs. The scars of a blade are all over his visible parts: chest, hands, and legs. He smiles softly and looks into the camera with his purple eyes

Thank you for the art share! 💜

Elden Ring inspired artwork depicting Godwyn, Prince of Death wielding Death Lightning. Facing away from him is his sibling Megaera, Goddess of Graves (my OC) in her Twinbird transition form. Both of them have a hand hovering around a golden aura of Grace. A faint image of an eclipse sits behind them.

Art of my Elden Ring OC, Grave Goddess Megaera. A leporine woman with amber eyes, long golden hair and purple fingertips dressed in purple, gold and silver. Miniature versions of Base Serpent Messmer’s winged serpents are curled around her hand and head. A spectral winged rabbit flies beside her. Grave Violets and Skeletal Flowers bloom around her.

Art of Revenant from Elden Ring: Nightreign with ghostly skeletal arms around her.

ʚ Flapple ɞ

A gijinka of the pokemon Flapple.

Flapple is a masculine character with a broad / wide upper body, wearing a mishmash of clothing. His top is incredibly body tight and showcases clear details of his chest and stomach, mostly because the artist felt like it; Meanwhile he wears a jacket that he's allowed to slip off his shoulders, with his pants being puffier compared to the rest of his outfit. This art also showcases two variants of his forms, since flapple is the as of writing this alt text, the only Applin evolution that can fly, one of these variants show off his wings.

Should be noted that just because rubber bullets are "non lethal," it doesn't mean you can't be severely hurt by them. This actual priest protesting in Chicago is probably going to lose his eye and he was shot by a pepper ball.

Uni’s been wild, but fret not! I got sick, so I can catch up to goretober🤌

Here are days 3, 4 and 5: Vomit, Hanahaki disease and Pins!

#goretober #sketchbook #art

Day 3 of goretober: vomit. A black and white illustration of a bloodshot, crying eye surrounded by various things that can make you sick; pills, soap bubbles, rotten food and alcohol. The alcohol pouring out of the bottle is rainbow coloured, and highly contrasts the otherwise gray scale colour scheme.

Day 4 of goretober: hanahaki disease. A skull and bone rests on a pillow, surrounded by thorny vikes. Rose petals are falling from its eye sockets, and two roses are growing from its mouth.

Day 5 of goretober: pins. An elf is lying in bed, partially covered by a red blanket. The elf is covered in red pins. Its face has a weary, pained expression.

The goretober list I’m following! The list was made by on.going.crisis on instagram!

So- I got to pay two things this month. Gotta pay for a new door as my dog dug a hole in it and pay my phone bill. The total is around $260. I’d love if it gets paid very soon. Please dm if you’d like art from me.

Or you can help on kofi: ko-fi.com/missalppy

Two young adults wearing wizardly looking robes run down a tower staircase holding hands, magic flames coming from their hands. One of them holds a ring of large antique keys. At the top of the tower is a skeletal figure standing in a doorway. A crow perched on a branch can be seen out a window in the tower

#GoreTober Day 1: Cleaved! 🩸🩸🩸
CW: Cartoon Gore

Decided I wanted to use this challenge as an excuse to draw more of Squibble! Might make digital versions of my favourites too!

I'll be using @crisis-arts.bsky.social 's list, with a 2nd from idzydraws on insta to mix it up on occasion! #gore #horror

Traditional inked image of a cartoon character with a chubby face and tentacles in place of hair. Her head has been sliced halfway down the middle to her nose with a large cleaver and blood in leaking from it.

Her eyes have crosses in place of pupiles and she's crying. She is wearing an extremely short jumper/sweater with very long sleeves and visible underboob. She has a pot belly hanging over a pair of heart-patterned pajama pants.
