In my mind the holidays aren't over until it's Jan 1st, but I also finally got around to drawing the comparison of when I started Webfishing to my final form and must show it.

I like to think my fisher dog has gone fucking insane from the amount of Leeds and no one believes them.

#Art #Webfishing

A comparison between when I first started the game Webfishing, to my final outfit on the silly game.

Before; Fisher dog with a yellow beanie with a fish symbol in the hat-brim and antlers taped to it. They have a "NO BAIT" T-shirt on with a bone fish and hook detailing it. Yellow rain boots to finish.
TEXT - Has $3 to wallet. Caught - A turtle. A stick. * Cannot afford pants.

After; Wears the same beanie with fish symbol and antlers taped to it. Has a super cool fancy collar with a bell on it. Wears a "SO SCARY" T-shirt with a bone fish and hook detailing it. Dark blue denim pants, and the same yellow rain boots.
TEXT - Upgraded everything. Caught - Too many Leeds. Another Leed. A turtle. *Has bought every pair of pants + shorts.

I've learned off the day of having something to have in my hands and mindlessly twist and squish around is actually helpful for multitudes of reasons.

So, commissions? I would really love to be able to purchase a couple more fidget toys for myself.

#Commissions #VGen I'll leave links below this⬇️

A scribbly doodle of my character holding their hands together with puppy eyes looking at the viewer.

Text: TRADE OFFER. You get pretty art. I get fidget toy.

Scribble page. It started out as I wanted to do render practice, but then I just wanted to fill the whole page with whatever.

#Art #OC #Doodle #Sketchpage

A sketchpage of my goat girl. Just various side profiles, portraits, and a single rendered backview with one arm holding the other from behind.

The background has an oilspill-esc pattern filling the empty spaces between each sketch. It's colored a deep blue color.

I have not found the energy to sit down and do a full piece, so I keep making these random pages of scribbles instead.

#Art #OC #Doodlepage #Sketchpage #Doodle

A smaller sketch page of my goat girl of various portraits. With one colored soft-render.

Massive comfort thing to draw for me is just my sona 8000 times when I can't be fucked to do anything else or am struggling to draw in general.

Art of my goat girl OC.

Clasping her hands together and staring towards the viewer. Frost covered hands grab at her from all angles. There is a tint of blue to her lips. Her face is reddened by the icy hands.

It's cold. But it's all I have.

I finally could be bothered to be somewhat productive. One of my sheets for Iris.

I finished off every reference I could need for this woman, now watch me change her design ever so slightly and all of this work be void.

#Art #OC #DigitalArt #ReferenceSheet #OCSheet

A wardrobe spread for my character Iris. A gorgon/medusa character with 6 snakes for "hair".

This sheet consists of her main outfit. A cropped top with a hoodie tied around her waist with short-shorts, under the knee socks and boots.

Aort. I did more DnD design for my partner. I also had fun adding lil' doodles for it.

#Art #DND #DigitalArt #Kitsune #Commission #ArtCommission

An awkward, shy kitsune-man holding a glowing spear.
The man has blue tipped hair, including his fox-like ears and two fox tails. Two long strands of hair are tied with a bead, framing his face. With a large scar over the bridge of his nose to a portion of his right cheek.
His clothing resembles a hakama with cloud detailing.
The spear has intricate golden details through the spearhead and vein-like tendrils of blue down the spear shaft.

Since I also treat alt-text like my little side notes and personal tidbits,

This piece gave me so many fucking issues. Not even from the design itself but because of computer issues. During this piece I had to factory reset my computer, twice. I lost the progress off the entire spear during one of the resets and had to redo the whole spear.

Still love this piece, but god I was glad to be finally done with it.

My stupid mans got a proper mini sheet now.

#Art #RefSheet #DigitalArt #OC

A mini-reference sheet for my OC, Lucas.

Lucas is 6ft even, has a horrible smoking habit, and is part Wraith.
His "Wraith" side allows him to manipulate his various tattoos into tangible smoke.

Lucas has several different tattoos. Two large oil spills over both his shoulders that flow down his shoulder blades, a neck tattoo that bleeds into a full spinal tattoo which ends at his tailbone, rib tattoos that wrap to his backside, and a wrist tattoo of simplistic lines.

He works as a tattoo artist. Of which his mini-ref sheet resembles a sketchpad Lucas would scribble in to get ideas for future tattoos. Though as of right now, it's covered in sticky notes reminding him of daily chores.

✨I didn't forget about todays post✨ Yippiee

This is another freebie that I did, for @ melissart-s on Tumblr

#Art #DigitalArt

Standing in a cavern opening is a person standing in a flower bed. It's raining beyond the cavern.

The person has antlers, deer ears, and a fluffy deer tail. Being backlit by the only source of light pouring into the cavern, they look towards the viewer with a gentle smile. Something about them feels off.

- My tidbit rambling -
I had way too much fun scribbling the background for this, my little brain turned off and I just zoned the fuck out for several hours. If this wasn't just a random off freebie for someone I'd probably render this out more.
I'll have to think of something I could do background wise for one of my own blorbos at some point or something.

It's been a long ass while since I've drawn Damien. I mainly did this for Artfight to have a cute picture of him, but also just to indulge myself in drawing this little mouth freak again 🤍🖤

#Art #DigitalArt #OCsky

My silly little guy, Damien.
Damien is a mimic monster who parades as a humanoid being.

Damien is looking down at his phone with earbuds in attached to the phone. He has a lollipop-stick poking out of his mouth as he smiles softly at his phone.
While Damien usually is against wearing tops, he at least has a jacket on with zipper sections on both upper-arms. His jacket is open, showing his bare chest.
He also has a moon pendant.

The background is of a simple street view with a cafe in the background.

Don't mind my wave of reposting. I simply have nothing new to post really and I'm not a machine that churns out brand new pictures for social media.

So look at things I have made again. It's been a bit. While you do that, I'll go back to creating things at my pace of enjoyment.

Dnd party line-up.

I really like sketching with this brush, it's so pretty ✨

#Art #DigitalArt #DND #Commission #Sketch

Scribbled on a notepad by one of the characters, is a self-portrait along with the rest of their party.

[FROM LEFT to RIGHT]
William, wearing an ornate vest and his hair tied in a high-pony tail he has his arm wrapped around our next party member. On his hand is a simple ring on his middle finger.
Morticia, smiling towards William she has two large horns. She has a simple dress with soft ruffles at the hems.
Dimitri, awkwardly smiling while holding his personal companion, a red panda, with our last party members hand on his shoulder.
Xanthe, reassuring Dimitri with her hand over his shoulder looking down towards him with a gentle smile.

✨I've returned ✨ and I've come back with more Artfight drawings :))))

This ones for Painniex, you can find them on IG or Tiktok.

#Art #DigitalArt #Artfight #Artfight2025 #TeamFossils

Artfight Attack featuring a fisherman on the docks hanging one leg into the water with a large basket of his catch behind him. He's looking down at the water, where a four eyed fishy-friend has gotten up onto the dock lip and is looking up smiling at the fishermen.

It's a night scene and they are alone together in the peace of this lake.

I think I've had these two on my bookmarks list since last year, glad to have gotten around to them for this years 🤍🖤

This is for apothe0sis, you can find them on ToyHouse or Tumblr

#Art #DigitalArt #Artfight #Artfight2025 #TeamFossils

Artfight Attack for apothe0sis, of which you can find on Tumblr or Toyhouse.

Featuring their two characters, Benjamin and Abraham. Both are vampires. They are in a relationship and in apothe0sis's words they make each other worse <3 <3

Benjamin is a well-built man with a forearm tattoo made up of roses.
Abraham is a slimmer built man with more pointed ears, resembling that of a "half-elf" look. He has a cross earring hanging from one ear.

The two of them are in a dark room, lit only by the window. Sitting in a bloodied bathtub together, Abraham has a glass filled with blood in one hand and his other propping Benjamin's head up while looking into his eyes. Benjamin has his hand sliding up Abraham's back from the water, looking back into Abraham's eyes.

There's probably a mauled body somewhere else in this room, and all these two can do is googly-eyes each other.

Another silly Artfight, I've done a lot of duo-pieces this year surprisingly. I had a lot of fun with this one though, if I had more time I would have loved rendering this out more

This ones for @teameaart.bsky.social (as well as nettnix on IG)

#Art #DigitalArt #Artfight #Artfight2025 #TeamFossils

Artfight Attack featuring two characters.

The background scene is set in a dark room, lit only by the window. Lying on the bed is Arianne. A girl with long black hair, wearing a white dress with blue accents. Leaning over her is Ichigo. A vampire staring at Arianne's throat as she grips his sleeve pulling him closer.

Artfight had like 16 hours left by this point and I really sat there and said "Fuck it, whole background"

This ones for @ezziethebatvt.bsky.social 🤍🖤

#Art #DigitalArt #Artfight #Artfight2025 #TeamFossils

Artfight Attack

The background is in a tea shop, walls covered in drawers and books. The countertop has little jars filled with odds and ends while a very purple dressed person comes through holding a tray of teacups.

Large fluffy swoops of hair, giant bat ears and elegant clothing Ezzie looks off to the side while smiling. They look to be in the middle of welcoming people into the tea shop.

Artfight Attack

The scene is set outside next to a large window, with the character sitting at a table in front of the window. They have a variety of treats laid out on the table and a large bowl of ramen sitting in front of them as they raise a bite to their mouth.

Some freebies I did awhile ago, the duality of them both is fun to look at.

Both from Discord 🤍🖤

#Art #DigitalArt #Sketch #Doodles #RequestArt

A red haired character holding their face in their hands while looking at the viewer with two separate headshots on either side in both side angles.

One arm is fully inked in from tattoos and gradually fades back to the skin-tone at the shoulder joint.

A bright, colorful character with pastel rainbow hair holding up a heart sign with their hands smiling wide at the viewer.

The background is abstract shapes that resemble polaroids.

From 2020, to 2025.

#Art #DigitalArt #OldArt

A blank white image with the text

"Art at the beginning of COVID" the year 2020.

A blank white image with the text

"Vs. Now!"
in relation to the previous blank white image with text that said
"Art at the beginning of COVID"

A piece I did more recently as of this year of my personal character and my partners wrapped up in scarves and touching cheeks against one another.
"Mink has her hand over his arm while he has his hand resting on her head pulling her closer."

I finally drew the silly heart top 🤍🖤

#Art #DigitalArt #OC

Full Piece of my OC Damien, a mimic who pretends to be human.

Lying back on a bed holding a teal old-timey telephone in one hand. Damien has bright red jeans and a bright red corset top in the shape of a broken heart, held together by chain lacing through the eyelets.

He would break your heart honestly, and wouldn't even know his stupid ass was the cause.
