Emotional Self Portrait

My submission for the @pokeearthcollab.bsky.social Meowth Collab!

Really sad to hear about James Carter Cathcart’s passing. Crazy just how many characters he voiced in the anime.

An illustration in black ink and colored pencil of the pokemon Meowth. 

Meowth is a bipedal beige cat with brown markings on its feet and tail.  It has black ears and a gold coin embedded in its forehead.  This Meowth is slouched over and furrowing its brow in exasperation.

You know when you just sit down and try to brush up on the fundamentals, but you end up making another full blown piece entirely? That’s basically what happened with this piece but it ended up getting rid of some stress I had so it’s a win

Talos laying on Diana’s lap. Diana is playing with Talos’s face while they hold hands. The setting is a bright sunny day and they are both smiling and blushing.

Aww that’s so cute! Wish I could draw my characters being affectionate with one another but it can be pretty difficult for some reason lol. Thank you again for explaining everything :)
theredbarcode.bsky.social
Happy to have made your day and I appreciate the effort! Remember that even when you feel no one cares about your art there is gonna be someone out there to support you. Can’t wait for the explanations :)
theredbarcode.bsky.social
Appreciate the support btw :D

Don’t feel bad! You don’t have to do any of that especially if it’s a hassle for you. I’m fine with following you even if I don’t understand the language. Plus, I can always run it through a machine translator lol

Felt like drawing Clawd the other day. Not sure if I ever mentioned his name here but he’s a chill guy dealing with a lot of pain.

#art #furry #furryart #trans #transcharacter #oc #ocart #originalcharacter #blackartist #illustration #cowboy #artsky #queerart
Description: 

Clawd waiting to get his picture taken. He’s a mix between a lynx and a sand cat. His fur is a warm brown with slightly darker brown spots to match. He’s wearing a brown cowboy hat and gloves, white bandages, a silver earring, a tan shirt, and a red vest with two silver buttons on each side and gold laces to connect them. He has a piece of wheat in his mouth with a bored expression. 

Text: 

“Could ya take it already? I don’t have all day…”

Fun Fact: 

He’s in his 40s Full-body watercolor artwork of Clawd. He’s holding two silver colored revolvers. His description is the same as the first image with the addition of having two brownish gun holsters, a brown belt with a silver tag in the center, and maroon pant legs and foot covers. He also has a medium sized spotted tail and big fluffy spotted paws for feet.

Been working on this one for about a week or so. Let me know what yall think. This one has some body horror!

#art #illustration #bodyhorrorart #bodyhorror #queer #queeroc #originalcharacter #ocart #originalcharacterart #blackartist #artsky
Butterfly Man (she/her) covering her body as she sits in a broken jar. She has the features of a scarlet butterfly in terms of her bright red and black wings and black arms/appendages. Her antennas are bright red, her face is a black, her eye is red and yellow, while her skin is brown with lots of scars. The background is dark to focus on her eye. The drawing specifically was inspired by Ful Stop by Radiohead

Some lore below :)

Butterfly Man (she/her) is based off of a scarlet butterfly and she was mutated with one as part of a secret government experiment called New Nature Project (NNP). Butterfly Man wasn’t always ‘Butterfly Man’ but that doesn’t matter anymore. She’s shown that technology can be stronger than magic—well she’s survived long enough to anyways. All that matters is getting stronger so when she faces her archenemy, Beetle Man, she’ll be able to crush him for good. Maybe if he changes his ways he can come back and serve his Kingdom like he ought to, but he would have to undergo the Man-Machine Project as a mark of his loyalty. Only then, he can be forgiven. Older sketches of Butterfly Man showing her face, old wing design, and teeth under her mutated face. More older sketches of Butterfly Man with one of them showcasing her drinking sugar water.

Woman with black and red butterfly wings. Her head has red antennas and rims around her eyes while her eye itself is yellow with a red pupil. The rest of her body is mainly brown and black with lots of pink scaring everywhere on her body. She also has a set of smaller, more insect like, black arms. She is facing away from the audience and has her arm wrapped around her head. She is looking outside a broken jar. The background is black. Her name is Butterfly Man (she/her). Cowboy (on the right) with a comically large hat and boots pointing finger guns at random blob person (left).

Cowboy: Put ur hands where I can see em’.

Best part is if you state this fact, everyone around you acts like you are nuts. You just have to smile and grin until it happens next week when Apple decides that they should start promoting the black iPhone over the white one.

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

Diana back when she was an assassin. She is ambushing two low-ranked demons via jumping out a tree with the moon light reflecting on her back and said demons. The demons (both have one horn with one being fully green and other fully red) are looking at her in shock. Both demons are wearing white collared shirts with red and blue blood on them. The background is a dark cloudy purple sky with bright green trees.
