Welcome back artists. 🖌️🎨✨
QRP with an old piece that you still like.

While I feel like I could’ve done better on some aspects, I still hold this one close. I miss doing silly crossover pieces with my friends’ dolls. I wish I can do more of them soon.

Artists, feel free to QRP with a piece that was an artistic turning point for you in 2025.

Not sure I had any artistic “turning points” this year but this one I feel was the start of me worrying a tad less about not fully shading an art piece and better work in colors to give a semblance of depth.

Added one more character to the line-up, an old NPC from that same campaign as well, decided to renew him as well so to close the circle on those old designs.

I've also re-uploaded each design on my Substar account at a higher quality for all tiers:

If you see this, post a goth or punk girl. 🖤

Reminded me of this one character I drew a while back that hasn’t been receiving a ton of love from myself, mea culpa. She could use a touch up.
A design sheet displaying three different drawings of a goth girl. She is wearing a tight black and white striped shirt, a spiked collar, fishnets on her arms and lower body, baggy pants and big shoes. Each drawing shows her styling different colored hair: red on the left and blue/light blue on the right.
