hi! I’m max / malt, I mostly lurk & try to avoid social media but occasionally I do art too (mostly original, but some fanart too) #artistsonbsky
A graphic poster (in primarily red and blue colors) featuring a catgirl sitting in the cockpit of a Monarch mecha. She is smirking at the camera, with half of her body blocked by the barrel of a huge gun. There is red text & a logo overlaid on top of the illustration - the text reads “DOUBLE KILL!! TRIPLE KILL!! QUAD KILL!! MULTIKILL!!! MULTIKILL!!! MULTIKILL!!!” A greeting card featuring the psychic type design for Hatsune Miku from Project Voltage. She is walking along a bridge made of light next to a Meloetta with her arms out for balance; in the background is the crystal at the sundial in Anistar City. Text in pink on the card reads: “Greetings from KALOS”. Fanart of iyowa’s song “Leave you on the back of the earth”. The art is mainly in black & white with a harsh red as an accent. A girl in a maid uniform is suspended upside down in an elevator with a sad smile on her face and her hand extended. The same girl is also standing right-side-up outside the elevator, with a more mischievous smile and a single finger held up to her lips. The title of the song is in a box at the bottom of the drawing. A square illustration featuring a person with shoulder length hair, sweating and looking blearily up; they are rendered in light orange-gold, lavender, and a muted blue. They are wearing a loose button up and jean shorts and holding a full plastic bag. In the background is a loosely rendered drawing of a sunrise coming up over a mountain range and a forest, and some buildings. Underneath is handwritten text: “imagine: you are throwing out two month old grocery from your fridge with a lack of sleep headache and the first thing you see stepping outside is the gold fading to blue.”

While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with.

Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

closet update for mils (they/he), cat/rabbit hybrid who wears stupid foul-mouthed tshirts (august 2024) #fursona #furryart
A colored character sheet, with four separate drawings of a cat-rabbit hybrid anthro with shoulder length two-toned black and red hair. All the drawings are labelled with the source of the outfits. 1, left: He is standing with a bottle in one hand and another in a pocket, wearing a very loose black button-up on top of a brown tank top and loose flowing black pants. 2, top middle: A half-body shot - the cabbit is yelling to the left, and wearing a mustard shirt with a screaming cat on it, featuring the text “I AM A BAS[cut off]”. 3, right: A back view of the cabbit, they are wearing a button up with a loud rainbow flannel pattern and a leaf print over top of brown shorts. There is a gray tabby cat sitting on their leg, labelled “spoon”; they are noting that she looks like a den den mushi from One Piece. This drawing shows that their tail can be a cat tail. There is a pink snail graphic in the background. 4, middle bottom: Another backview, this time of the cabbit posing to show off another printed button up (with lots of blue vacation-like imagery), and his rabbit tail poking out of the top of his jeans. There is a cyan graphic of a sailboat and a tropical island in the background. misc: More graphic tees are drawn in miniature in the top right corner.

SILVER & IRON: Part One
Ashley Lovell is a hopeful young werewolf who thinks he may have finally met a vampire willing to cooperate with him to eradicate a supernatural disease - only for both men to learn firsthand that your day can always get worse.

40+ pages, all in this thread 🧵🌙 #Silver&Iron
Comic cover titled “Silver & Iron” in all caps, “part one”. The title takes up the entire cover and is superimposed over a single figure standing in the centre of the page, a young but strong-looking man with light skin, visible chest and arm hair, and a beard which tapers into points at his chin and his cheeks. His hair is jaw-length and the top half is tied back, though some strands have come undone. He has upturned eyes and a moderately long nose with a slight bend in the bridge. A scar runs through his left eye leaving the pupil permanently dilated, making it appear darker than his right eye. He looks at the viewer with a sense of determination and grit, wiping blood off his chin; more blood stains his shirt, untucked and half-unbuttoned to expose part of his chest, and there are more traces of blood on his left hand which holds a crudely-hewn dagger.

Nico Robin laughs at a small, round bear with its snout in a yellow mug. Her t-shirt reads “BEWARE of THE BEARS” with a cartoon bear with its paws up. There is a salmon cooking on a stick over a roaring campfire.

Posting GARY PANTER'S SKETCHBOOK TIPS to save a life -- the site that used to host these took em down years ago, and they are as useful a list about this kind of thing as you will ever find.

They are like a favorite dogeared paperback to me.
INTRODUCTION Get a book-size (or paperback-size)d sketchbook. Write your name and date on an early page and maybe think of a name for it — and if you want, write the book’s name there at the front. Make it into your little painful pal. The pain goes away slowly page by page. Fill it up and do another one. It can be hard to get started. Don’t flunk yourself before you get the ball rolling. You might want to draw more realistically or in perspective or so it looks slick — that’s is possible and there are tricks and procedures for drawing with more realism if you desire it. But drawing very realistically with great finesse can sometimes produce dead uninteresting drawings — relative, that is, to a drawing with heart and charm and effort but no great finesse. You can make all kinds of rules for your art making, but for starting in a sketchbook, you need to jump in and get over the intimidation part — by messing up a few pages, ripping them out if need be. Waste all the pages you want by drawing a tic-tac-toe schematic or something, painting them black, just doodle. Every drawing will make you a little better. Every little attempt is a step in the direction of drawing becoming a part of your life. TIPS 1. Quickly subdivide a page into a bunch of boxes by drawing a set of generally equidistant vertical lines, then a set of horizontal lines so that you have between 6 and 12 boxes or so on the page. In each box, in turn, in the simplest way possible, name every object you can think of and draw each thing in a box, not repeating. If it is fun, keep doing this on following pages until you get tired or can’t think of more nouns. Now you see that you have some kind of ability to typify the objects in your world and that in some sense you can draw anything. 2. Choose one of the objects that came to mind that you drew and devote one page to drawing that object with your eyes closed, starting at the “nose” of the object (in outline or silhouette might be good) and following the contour you see in your mind’s eye, describing to yourself in minute detail what you know about the object. You can use your free hand to keep track of the edge of the paper and ideally your starting point so that you can work your way back to the designated nose. Don’t worry about proportion or good drawing this is all about memory and moving your hand to find the shapes you are remembering. The drawing will be a mess, but if you take your time, you will see that you know a lot more about the object than you thought. 3. Trace some drawings you like to see better what the artist’s pencil or pen is doing. Tracing helps you observe closer. Copy art you like — it can’t hurt. 4. Most people (even your favorite artists) don’t like their drawings as much as they want to. Why? Because it is easy to imagine something better. This is only ambition, which is not a bad thing — but if you can accept what you are doing, of course you will progress quicker to a more satisfying level and also accidentally make perfectly charming drawings even if they embarrass you. 4.

This is only ambition, which is not a bad thing — but if you can accept what you are doing, of course you will progress quicker to a more satisfying level and also accidentally make perfectly charming drawings even if they embarrass you. 5. Draw a bunch more boxes and walk down a sidewalk or two documenting where the cracks and gum and splotches and leaves and mowed grass bits are on the square. Do a bunch of those. That is how nature arranges and composes stuff. Remember these ideas — they are in your sketchbook. 6. Sit somewhere and draw fast little drawings of people who are far away enough that you can only see the big simple shapes of their coats and bags and arms and hats and feet. Draw a lot of them. People are alike yet not — reduce them to simple and achievable shapes. 7. To get better with figure drawing, get someone to pose — or use photos — and do slow drawing of hands, feet, elbows, knees, and ankles. Drawing all the bones in a skeleton is also good, because it will help you see how the bones in the arms and legs cross each other and affect the arms’ and legs’ exterior shapes. When you draw a head from the side make sure you indicate enough room behind the ears for the brain case. 8. Do line drawings looking for the big shapes, and tonal drawing observing the light situation of your subject — that is, where the light is coming from and where it makes shapes in shade on the form, and where light reflects back onto the dark areas sometimes. 9. To draw the scene in front of you, choose the middle thing in your drawing and put it in the middle of your page — then add on to the drawing from the center of the page out. 10. Don’t worry about a style. It will creep up on you and eventually you will have to undo it in order to go further. Be like a river and accept everything.

[ONE PIECE] more nico robins for @nicorobinartcollab.bsky.social ! #109, #272, and #203
Nico Robin dances in a frilly gown (flamenco-like), her coy smile half-covered by a masquerade mask. Nico Robin is smiling, her face cupped by one hand. She is wearing a flowy yellow blouse, with a stylish green jacket and white pants. Nico Robin curtseys while pouring a cup of tea; one hand is pouring the teapot from up high, another holds her skirt, and a second pair of hands holds a teacup and platter. She is wearing a lowcut frilly white blouse, a long flowy black skirt, and black heels.
