Last of Lori until I make more. Uh. Warning for bright colors, idk how to put that on here.

Poor guy. Wonder how that happened!

A lapis, looking up in fear. His left eye and the cracks along his skin are glowing, and there seemed to be wind in his hair.

The same lapis, doubled over in pain. His gem is glowing sharply, as well as the rest of the cracks along his body. His face isn't visible.

I LIED I FORGOT I HAD THIS- this is how Iris and Lori differ from their GG morphs in my brain.
(Lori is Lapis Chabadon 19, and Iris is the Iris pearl. I'm very original as you can see)
soon to come for Jax and Clara as well!

On the left, a grumpy lapis in a military uniform, with one braid to his left side. Lori.

On the right, a serene periwinkle and lavander pearl with transparent skirt and over sleeves. Iris.

wanted to show off how much of a process this one went through. I was trying to make a sea-themed sapphire, and, well. He went through some ugly phases! But I'm so so proud of the result. Trust the process, guys. And welcome Selkie!

#art #oc #ocart #stevenuniverse #gemgalaxies

A sapphire vaguely based off a mermaid, with a scaled pattern on his skirt, swirling design on his bodice, and flowy sleeves over long gloves. Lots of draping pearl jewelry, his hair braided to one side.

A sapphire in a gold dress, with a bubble effect at the very hem to look like seafoam. Clusters stuck out from his skirt like rocky golden tidepools, trailing fabric made to look like water. His bodice is structured, and his poofed sleeves have lines of pearls at the hem to compliment the trails of pearls leading from his choker to the top of his bodice. His hair is pulled back and up, with loops of it draping down and back with trails of more pearls to hold them in place.

The final sapphire, in a gold and cyan dress in layers of color. Bubbles of beads and pearls section off different shades of turquoise, leading from a flowy, translucent blue fabric to a pale yellow at the top of the skirt, made to look like the tide coming in. His bodice and puffed sleeves are gold with accents of blue in the very center and in the long sleeves. His hair is cut short, with part of it pulled up into a bun by a net of pearls to match his chunky pearl earrings.

Not a perfect piece, but the most complex #render I've done in a while. Looks like The Valkyrie's in a bit of trouble...

#art #oc #ocart #stevenuniverse #gemgalaxies

An Angelite with skin like nebulas, hair pulled back in a ponytail and glaring somewhere above the camera. Blue text bubbles read "Well? How do you plead?"

A closeup of the Angelite, showing greater detail in her skin, starry freckles across a blue, purple, and pink sky. White eyelashes to match her hair, and bright blue eyes glaring undeterred above the camera.

I love making my #OCs interact. Peak content to me

#art #ocart #comic #stevenuniverse #gemgalaxies

A tall jasper, colored orange, with hands on hips and eyebrows raised, standing beside a pearl, in lavender, holding a cup of tea and looking curiously past the camera to follow the Jasper's eyes. Orange tex above them reads "Woah... did y'all sleep at all last night??"

A lapis in blue, and Angelite in a dull purple, and a cloud quartz in a light pink all sit at a table. The Lapis looks unimpressed in the direction of the camera, knees to his chest on top of the chair he sits on. The Angelite sips from a mug, glaring at the camera with messy hair and deep eye bags. The cloud quartz is asleep, leaned forward on the table with her hair down and face buried in her arms.

Text in blue and purple above the Lapis and angelite reads "..." While above the cloud quartz in pink, is "Zzz..."

Above the Lapis, blue text reads "(looks awake, but didn't sleep + dissociating)" above the Angelite, purple text reads "(Slept four hours non-consecutive)" and above the cloud quartz, pink text reads "(Slept all night, still exhausted)"

A cloud quartz with very poofy hair, pulled together into buns that look like hearts. The hearts and her lipstick are in the colors of the lesbian flag, while her bangs and eyeshadow are the colors of the trans one. She's making a heart shape at the camera with her hands.

A new girly made just today! My koi themed scapolite, Paulette/Lettie. I think I'll be drawing a lot of her tbh, I think she's so cute

Two different fits + the refs I used. Comms open!
