My GM wanted me to make art of the sad moment from last week's Sentai and Sensibility. So I took a break from my school work to illustrate.

Beatrice invoking her husband to stay with her 😭

CW: Blood

A pale woman with long ginger hair in a white and gold trimmed dress is holding a man in a black suit and gold tie with dark tanned skin and black hair. She holds his hand to her chest, and holds his head in her other hand as she kisses his forehead. Deep, lush greenery and glowy lily of the valley flowers bloom around them.

For those who joined us for our Sentai and Sensibility AP last night: here is Beatrice's Henshin from season 1 and her new look this season!
A regency-style black power ranger. All black outfit with copper trimmings. She has a long skirt with a wing pattern wrapping around, copper trim creating feathers on the shoulders of her full jacket, and copper bracers. The visor on the helmet has a swan silhouette design. A dark green Power Ranger, dressed in regency-era, military-style clothes. She wears a layered green feather-like skirt over pants, and high boots with brass trimmings. A tight-fitted bodice with, coloured like brass patina. A military Spencer jacket in dark velvet green, a black-green silk ascot, and long black and brass gloves. Her shadow has a cat, and a design of a claymore sword next to her.

#ArtVsArtist2025

This year was a lot of drawing of my TTRPG PCs. Zatza from my Wildsea campaign has the most art I've ever done for a PC, potentially ever for an OC, and strengthened my comic art style.

And a screenshot of one of the things in progress from school.
Eight various illustrations surrounding a portrait of a brown-haired, pale-skinned woman. Left to right: A train conductor man having a cigarette. A noir-themed, monochrom illustration of a serious woman dressed in black, holding up a cigarette. A green moth person, floating through the air on a pale fog. A Hades video game-inspired illustration of a golden-winged woman. Photo portrait of GhostCandle. A pale masked person holding a large orb with a moth person in it. A comic of a green moth girl. A large, vulpin-like creature with a green moth girl on it's nose. Pixel art scene of a white star jumping through the woods.

Last year, I had the joy of trying out a different art style and made Tarot cards of my Sentai and Sensibility group. Our PCs used Tarot cards for their henshin, so the top row was our starter and the bottom row we earned.
A set of ten Tarot-themed illustrations done with mostly flat, saturated colours. In order from left to right: The Fool - A blond-haired, pale-skinned man dressed in red and yellow, facing towards the sun. The Magician - A pale man in a brown and purple cowboy outfit, smoking over a table with player cards and coin. The Hanged Lady - A blond-haired, pale-skin woman in a yellow dress, hanging upside-down in a tree and playing a phantom piano. The Moon - A black-haired, dark-skin man dressed in cream and purple floating in the ocean with the reflection of the moon. Temperance - A red-haired, pale-skin woman in black and grey pouring water from a pewter pitcher into a basin. Strength - The blond-haired man in a red vest sitting with a golden lion and mountains in the background. The Emperor - A brown-haired man dressed in purple, smoking while sitting in a large thrown with an owl carved into it. The Chariot - The blond hair woman against red drapes, holding up a conductor's baton with two white lions holding red ribbon. The Lovers - The black man dressed in creams and gold, dancing with the blond woman under a willow tree. The High Priestess - The red-haired woman in a grey dress, sitting with her legs in the water at night with a book and a sword. A black cat lies in a tree behind her.

Starting something new by returning to something old. Something that will premiere in the New Year, thus requires new art. 👀

Merry Christmas!

Slowly understanding Procreate. Decided to go with my comic-leaning style and draw my girl Zatza for my first illustration!
Went a little overboard with the different brushes and effects, but it was fun!

Will try my painting style next.

I'm laughing at how I managed to get the same position for taking a photo of me as Nike, and just how different I look between session 1 and finale because of makeup and lighting.
A pale-skinned woman dressed as Nike; Gold costume wings, a golden laurel crown, and long dark brown hair. She has gold makeup and black paint marks.

I may need to post all the art/photos below just to remind people of my collection, lol.
White text on black reads: What if your favorite character created by this artist?

Took some time from school work to doodle my girl Zatza from Wildseas if she was in Hollow Knight.

To be fair, when I was first making her, Hollow Knight was an inspiration as my brain went to The Seer when I was picking aspects.

(BG is a screenshot of one of the dream environments)

Always happy to be part of anything you are plotting!

A winged, grey-skinned devil perches on top of a tower. Two towers loom in the background against a star-filled sky. A white unicorn surrounded by large shamrocks and white flowers. A long, red-haired woman dressed in black sits on top of a black horse looking out at the grassy hills in a gray morning light. A pale woman in a black dress with a plunging neckline and long black hair with a chunk of white in the front, sits in a black wicker chair. She holds a glass with a deep red liquid, with a large panther-like creature with curving tusks lying beside the chair.

Had the pleasure of getting an early look at the TTRPG, First Date Update!
I made this illustration to catch the sort of vibes you can expect. Great game for goofy, disastrous fun!

3 people are in discussion with varied expressions. On the left, a long haired girl in a blue knit vest is blushing, holding her phone to her chest with a hopeful look in her eyes. The middle person, a generic grey meeple standin with a "Hello, I'm Mutual" sticker on their chest. They have a quizative look and they listen. The person on the right, purple dyed hair and dark clothes, stands with arms folded and an annoyed expression. Between them all, two text messages read: Sorry about... You know. Wanna go out again?" which has a ghost emoji reaction on it. The background has snap shots of things happening over the date.

I don't share enough about my overlay work for streams, but I've spent a good amount of time creating unique overlays every time I did a game (video or TTRPG).

Varied in needs. Some had videos, others animations, making unique PNGTubers to match a game. Fun stuff!
An overlay set made for playing Cuphead. A starting soon screen with Cuphead, Mugman, and Miss Chalice. A retro countdown stinger. A simple, TV like screen overlay with a PNGTuber in Cuphead style. And an ending screen with Cuphead and Mugman. An overlay set for Sword by Ghostlight. A startingsoon screen of a gas steetlamp and a full moon in the sky. Main scene with a space for a camera and one for roller. A be right back screen with a space for ads. An ending scene with "Thank you for watching" over a full blue moon. A stream overlay set for Tangled Blessings. All similar with red and black details. The set includes a "Starting soon" scene, a single camera play screen, an "at recess" screen with ad space, and an ending screen. A Harvest Moon-themed overlay set. A starting soon screen with running chickens. A Be Right Back screen with a cow in a barn eating. A Main scene with the game title and a classic Harvest Moon-styled PNGTuber. And an ending screen with a dog sleeping in a dog house.

Many projects were shelved this year, or not heard back from. The expenses don't disappear, though!

Worked in animation, games and publishing, can provide on a deadline!
