Panel 8 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable attempts to put her cuffs onto the woman with a braid. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 5: Qiuyin 'Yin' Lang. Main Ability: Anti-magic Qi." Yin stands with a cocky smile and a hand on her hip. She twirls the cuff on a single finger, similar to Sani but with far less stretching. "Marvelous shackles," Yin says. " Tis lovely magic that you have poured into them. Pity that I am the foil to your toils." Fable seems more intrigued than she does dejected. Panel 9 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable attempts to put her cuffs onto the young one. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 6: Jonni Summers. Main Ability: Unknown (Wild Card?)." Jonni brazenly shrugs with a single soot covered cuff on one wrist, and holding the smoldering remains of the other cuff out to Fabelora. Jonni says "Oh nooo! Your oppression band broke somehow! Damn, too bad! Double or nothing?" Fable glares at Jonni, fists clenched in anger. Panel 10 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable puts her cuffs onto the japanese man. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 7: Tatsuo Ninushi. Main Ability: Tenacity." Tatsuo's screams fill the background as he stubbornly forces the cuffs off of his wrist. The gruesome sight is just out of frame but we can see blood spurting into frame. Fable darts towrds him with horror, yelling "Stop! STOP!!! I'LL REMOVE THEM!!!" Panel 10 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable holds a pair of cuffs and stands with a hand on her head before a creature so tall he barely fits the frame. The top left cut-in is blocked by the figure but what remains visible reads: "Attempt 8: --- obi' Plynth. Main Ability: Contact Ass---." The figure, "Obi" assumedly, shrugs revealing that the hands that spill out of his suit lack wrists to connect the cuffs to. To further this point, Obi says "So, I don't have--" but Fable cuts him off saying "Just go."

Panel 4 of the Escape Arts Comic: A flashback to Fabelora attempting to put her custom made cuffs onto the redheaded woman. Int the top left we see a cut-in that reads: "Attempt 1: Monique Marqee. Main Ability: Hyper-mobility" The redhead, Monique, holds the cuffs as if she has just taken them off without opening them and exclaims: "Oh là là. This reminds me of my days at the circus." Fabelora looks upset. Panel 5 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable attempts to put her cuffs onto the man with locs. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 2: Sani Cole. Main Ability: Cell Manipulation" Sani's arm is currently extended to create a small loop before ending just shy of Fable's face where he spins the cuff on his pointer finger. He brags, "Yeah, you're gonna wnat auto-adjusting cuffs or something for me." Fable is in awe. Panel 6 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable attempts to put her cuffs onto the woman with the pink hijab. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 3: Khalilah Ih'ra. Main Ability: Nanite Armor." She solemnly holds a pile of dust that vaguely resembles the cuffs. "Sorry!" says Khalilah. "My nanites seem to have disassembled the cuffs. Does this make me a bad prisoner?" Fable is shocked as she stares at the blackened pile of dust. Panel 7 of the Escape Arts Comic: Fable puts her cuffs onto the man with white hair and glasses. The top left cut-in now reads: "Attempt 4: Pourien Conners. Main Ability: Elemental Magic." Pourien extends his cuffed arms as a rock golem holds him aloft in one arm. His legs spill over the edge of the golem's hand. Pourien says "...so, like, I can KEEP the cuffs on if that makes you feel better...but they really don't matter to me." Fable appears unsurprised.

Unit-E: Escape Arts (1/3)
#ocart #comics #blackart #unit-e
Panel 1 of the Escape Arts Comic: We see Fabelora, at a desk polishing a wooden gun when a handles creature steps into frame and calls to her: "ENFORCER WALD!!!" Panel 2 of the Escape Arts Comic: We pull back and see the individual yelling at Fabelora is a person with a shark head, and fins for arms gesturing at a recreation area beneath them. In the area, the confident woman with a braid dances with the young black child, and the man with locs extends his body to impossible lengths to pull a now awe-struck redheaded woman to the upper level. The shark-man yells at Fabelora: "Why are your PRISONERS running around without RESTRAINTS!?" Fabelora looks beyond him towards the group in the recreation area, with a twinge of scorn. Panel 3 of the Escape Arts Comic: "...they don't work" Fabelora replies returning to her polishing. closer examination reveals that the wooden gun is intricate and has some metalic mechanisms to it. The Shark-man screams from off panel, "What do you MEAN they don't work!?!?"

I have finally finished my background series! This here is the gene set.
#backgroundart #art
An afternoon glow upon a pair of small but futuristic-looking mosques. pink neon lights light up the gray structures as they prepare for the night. A strange floating tower amoungst a red sand field. A black star eluminates the field, one that matches two energy sources nestled within the tower's structure. A field of unworked, geometric stones float about the scene. A flat, 2-color view of a scientific, seaside city. The city's powerful lighthouses burn away the darkness of the night. As the water warps the city's reflection, it seems as if a deep-sea horror lurks within.

Made another set of backgrounds. I'm calling this my magic set.

#backgroundart #art
A night scene of a skate park. The moon is lightly obscured by night time clouds. The park's lights are on, but they appear pale due to the glowing, smiling creature in the right third of the image. A scene of a city street after a morning rain, as viewed from an alleyway. From the alley's entrance we can see a pedestrian walking past and an advanced-looking taxi parked just outside a small grocery. A scene of a moonlit cave and waterfall. The crescent moon shines bright blue and bathes the whole canvas in a watery glow.

Made a little comic for my OC's first meeting. #comicart #blackart #OC
A 6 panel comic titled "Intro to Unit E." The comic opens with a hologram of an alien document. The document is translated as "Command Assignment: Unit" and the unit appears to be E though this doesn't appear to be translated. In the next panel we see the recipient: Fabelora, a black gnome in a blue uniform with a futuristic bracer that projects the document. She asks the document "...Unit... 'E'?" In the next panel she walks down a hallway, face glued to the projection, as an alien coworker and a robotic coworker pass inn the background. She asks herself "Not Unit '[ALIEN GLYPH]'? Or unit 'Flurmph'? Why 'E'? Is it a grade? Did A through F die?" A door slides open for Fabel as she pulls her eyes away from the document. She looks at the individuals in the room before her and lets out an exhausted "...oh..." The final panel reveals a room stuffed with humans in red, space-like, prison uniforms. The are all of different ethnicities and nearly all of them are talking. "Gnome!" pogs the youngest one as they point at Fable. "Welcome." says the confident woman with a braid. In the background a man with locs quietly remarks "I don't think that you can just yell 'gnome' at folks..." Further back, a thin redhaired woman points at a floating silver object with a red ring and exclaims, "I swear I saw this move!" On one side, a Japanese man addresses Fable saying "Please tell me you were born that way," and on the other a seated man with white, cloud shaped hair asks her "Do you need this box?" The only silent member seems to be a woman wearing a pink hijab very focused on what the redhaired woman it referring to. Fable simply thinks to herself "...'E' for Earth," clearly annoyed at her assignment already.

Made an expression sheet for my OC Yin! She's a very expressive and confident person, so I wanted to make sure I could accurately capture that dynamic range. #characterdesign #conceptart #oc #expression
An image of Yin making a lot of different expressions along with a few poses. We see her smugly holding a bo staff, impressively balancing on one foot as she pours tea into a cup rested on her other foot, laying down relaxing while in a full split, and stubbornly stretching her leg. A more dynamic range of expressions takes up the majority of the image, each with an alternating hairstyle, including some faces that appear more monstrous.

Oh yeah! #MakeATerribleComicDay2025. I kinda missed it. I should set a reminder lol...
A terrible comic of Fable trying to remind us about Make A Terrible Comic Day. She's about 2 weeks late, though, so it retuns to being a decent comic.

So I've been kinda working on a comic in the background, and I am too proud of my work so far to not share! This project has been brewing in my brain for like a decade.
#comic #originalcomic #OC
A rough sketch for a four-panel page of a comic. A fully inked version of the first image. We can see a futuristic museum, the destruction of an ancient temple, a dark sewer tunnel, and a lone rowboat sailing into a menacing fog. Rough sketches for a couple of pages of a comic. Here, we are introduced to the protagonist, Qiuyin Lang, as she prepares to leave in a small sampan. She is stopped by an old friend who warns her that her journey will mean she cannot return. Another page of rough sketches. Quiyin is warned that her journey will consume her without a guiding hand. Yin asks her friend to join her. Before we can hear the response, the memory ends, and we see Quiyin waking up, alone in the damaged sampan, in the middle of the ocean.
