These are supposed to be made of crystal/glass, I always struggle a bit with the material. One day I just need to sit down and do a study so the texture looks just right. For now I'm doing it the quick way, not the best way 🫣

Here's the work in progress!

[takes a deep breath] I LOVE BUGS

I love the antennae here ❤️🐜

Ahhh 🥹 I even tried recording, but I have troubles setting OBS, and PS doesn't have that option :'> So I just make screens. In the age of generative content I prefer to always keep proof that I'm human

Also my progress is a complete chaos, half of the time I have no idea what I'm doing 😆

They are living in my brain right now, fortunately only as creepy ideas :P

Just don't look at the hand holding sword, don't look at it, this hand does not exist, there is no hand, what hand

Thank you! I just need to fix the sword as the hand holding it, I did something very weird with it :') But I'm on my way to finish it asap

I don't know his backstory, so it's hard to tell, but I totally agree! He also strikes me as a creature that the anti-hero turns into while raging. Sort of a demonic possession maybe?

I planned doing them in a totally different way :'> but I couldn't stop myself from doing a rainbow

I apologized and fixed it, and I check the hands twice ever since 😆 This was a few years ago, before genai was even a thing. I didnt need machines to royally screw up the fingers

I almost forgot to add the golden elements, as I overpainted them when rendering the ribcage :'') good thing I always check the first sketch before I have sent it to the client, it would be as embarrassing as the time I have painted two left hands on a commission 😐

That's the entirety of my setting. I love my monsters 💚

Just as a fun fact, that gesture can stop a lizard running straight at you. I'm specifically speaking about my lizard. It works for some reason :V

Thank you so much! I really enjoyed doing that character design 💙 it was one of the more challenging from last year's batch, but it was fun nontheless

Both are my favourite subjects 💙
