Help it's again

Happy #PortfolioDay!

I'm Christine, I'm an animal fantasy and wildlife illustrator and Environmental Conservation student.

I do a lot of digital art but I'm branching into gouache and loving it ;)

See more of my work and my commission sheet: linktr.ee.com/skidarstudios

dancing dragons
Digital painting of a Mega Dragonite, dueling with a Mega Altaria. The shiny mega Dragonite is wielding a spear with a curved blade, clashing against a white sword wielded by the mega Altaria. They are dueling in the sky, surrounded by seven other Altarias aiming to attack the Dragonite, and there thunderclouds brewing in the backdrop.

insecurities
1/6
This is the first page of a multi-panel 12 page comic strip by saucypaws, featuring two anthropomorphic female characters: Pepper, a shorter, curvy calico cat with short hair, and Whitney, a taller, athletic horse girl with longer hair. Both characters are getting ready to go out somewhere and are wearing just their underwear. The comic aims to depict a tender moment relating to body image and insecurity. Pepper is standing in front of a full-length mirror, looking at herself while holding up a green velvet strapless dress as if she is unsure whether or not she wants to put it on or not. We see a close up of her face and she is clearly very unhappy. Suddenly, a very alarmed Whitney comes rushing in: "Shoot!" she exclaims. "What time is it?" - the two of them must be late for something...

A group of male harlequin ducks cruising the waves in the Norwegian Sea at the mouth of Seyðisfjörður, part of Austfirðir in Eastern Iceland.

These badass ducks specialize in rough water, well known for living in fast-moving sections of rivers, and are gorgeous on top of their hardcore habitats.

congratulations to the Seahawks, who are technically named after the gorgeous Osprey — a great victory for birders everywhere!

below is my rendition of an Osprey soaring to victory, drawn with full attention to detail. and no, this is not a photo!

Innocent
A painting of a canyon in the fog, some remains of graves are here and there, a goddess statue is standing in the background. Trees are twisted and almost leafless. A mother and his child are standing in the middleground, she is holding a lamp in her hand. In the foreground some lost kids are anxious and wonder why she is there. One of them is trying to approach her. The mood is sad and monochromatic, a grey, except a little touch of warm orange coming from the mother lamp.

IHK!

last years presi for @meltingmooon.bsky.social
Hlf body painting of a starling bird person, who's head and body are slightly shifted in different directions, the body faces more towards the camera to the left side while their head is in a side view towards the right side, showing the left side of it. Their beak is slightly open, their red eyes are open too. Their feathers and wings look typical to a starling, dark with green and purple shine and yellow-ish details. They wear a fancy outfit. The vest is ivory coloured, the shirt is purple and embroidery is roughly hinged on both. The background has a painterly texture where brush strokes are visible. The colours of it are blueish-grey overlayed on a orange-red.

Thank you for the #artshare!

This one is in a desert, which is certainly sunny. 🌞

Illustration: Stormfront (Sci-fi Art) Illustration of a pale orange stone desert, with mountains in the background. Behind the mountains looms a churning, deep blue stormfront, which is split by a single bolt of lightning that reaches to a nearby floating island, and from there to the nearest peak. Dust blows violently across the landscape in front of the storm, and in the foreground, two dragonfly-like mechs perch on some eroded rock formations. They have scrap solar panels for wings, and twin cockpits for eyes. Two characters stand on top of the nearest mech; one sitting upon the wing rotator joint, and the other looking towards the storm through a pair of binoculars. In the further mech, the pilots remain in the eyeball cockpits. One appears to be viewing a holographic display within the glass, and the other is looking over his shoulder, eyes shaded, at the storm. Art by @sarahdraws8.bsky.social.

Well its very sunny over here over my place (because its regularly hot) at the moment. I do have a sunrise piece that I made about a year ago - with warm colors, but that's pretty much it.
A Nothosaurus (semi-aquatic sauropterygian reptile in the Triassic period) on the beach, basking off a cloudy sunrise. In the background there is foliage. (Never mind some potentially anachronistic flora...)
