“Did they have to make it so revealing?“

One of us was going to have to wear that outfit and Dany drew the shorter straw. If only there were two ya know?

It feels good to upload something new! A while back @taikorczak.bsky.social and I made a pact to draw our DnD characters in maid outfits. I may have a lot of setbacks and it took me a while to do my half but damn it I never forget!

This just in: local Water Genasi is too strong for their own good.

Lazuli, a pale blue water genasi, stands in a maid outfit. They look frustrated as they stare at a broken broom. Text reads "Hmph. How am I to clean with such weak and ineffective tools? (Forgot they have 17 Strength.)"

Introducing @wrenandpaper.bsky.social to our lineup of writers! WrenAndPaper's favorite Fates character is Benny, among many others!

$Contributor spotlight graphic On the right from top to bottom is: Profile photo Text that reads: WrenAndPaper Writer tumblr: @wrenandpaper instagram:wrenandpaperart I'm an artist/writer who has been with Fates since the original announcement was translated by fans. I adore Fates' ambitious split-path design, and still replay the games and indulge in its world frequently. I am honoured to contribute to this love letter to a game that I cherish so deeply. The symbol for the kingdom of Valla Fate, Refracted: The FE Fates 10th Anniversary Zine In the middle is an illustration of Azura's Lance On the right is fic excerpt that reads: ...Elise had no way of knowing that this new bond would provide the very sunlight that a certain wallflower needed to bloom into Hoshido’s finest cherry tree. For now, she was content with a friend – and as her lonely heart ached a little less that night, Nohr’s sweetest lily was lovelier than ever.$

a soft agnes/emmrich moment, based on Ferdinand Hodler's 'Die Nacht' 🌟 #datv #dragonage #art #emmrichvolkarin #emmrook

A digital painting of Emmrich Volkarin and a light brown skinned female Rook with dark curly hair. They are facing each other on a bed, so we can see Emmrich's face but not Rook's. One of her arms is around his chest, and Emmrich has a tender expression on his face.

Sorry I've pretty much been dead since my last post fghjkl A lot has happened, but I wanna do better with activity and sharing my art on here. So, I'll start with some oldies but goldies from 2017, @wrenandpaper.bsky.social and I's Naruto OCs, Mitsuki and Miriamu! I'm still really proud of them! 💕

Hello everyone! I haven't had much time to upload what I've been working on. However, here is the next in my line of Bleach OCs, Shiosai! 🌊🌊🌊

Lore can also be found on my other socials but I'll try to do up a doc soon! Anyway, have fun with Squad 5's lovable underdog!

[Image ID: A male Shinigami standing with his fists on his hips, grinning confidently. He has mid-brown skin, a broad nose, and a shiny plum-coloured pompadour. His style is much like Japanese biker gangs of the 1950s and he wears bandages and band-aids. End ID.]

Original meme here!

[The original comic panel from Archie comics. Veronica points down and says "Down boy!" while Archie sits nervously and says "Arf!" obediently.]

Do you think the Mad Dog of Shimano knows tricks?

It's true, they have tension! tbh Laz may have struggled with letting Claudia back in Dany's life, but i think they'll be glad they did in the end 💙

Wren @wrenandpaper.bsky.social · Apr 10

I’ve been meaning to introduce more characters and art on here, so let’s keep it rolling with a Bleach OC, my dear Red Spider Lily, Haibana Umi!

Lore can also be found on my other socials but I'll try to do up a doc soon! Anyway, have a peaceful day and have a cup of tea with Squad 13’s big sister!

[Image ID: A reference sheet of my original Bleach OC, Haibana Umi. It features her fullbody look, her tsuba or sword hilt, her name and name meaning, and her zanpakuto. She is wearing black shinigami robes, with a purple obi and a red tie around it. She has deep blue hair cropped into a bob, and sharp red eyes. She is a half-black woman. Her skin is a deep, warm brown, her nose is rounded and wide, and her palms are slightly lighter than her skin.]

[Image ID: A chibi from the bust up of a Bleach fan character. She is holding a traditional green tea cup and staring at it wistfully. Her hair is an a blue bob, her eyes are red, and she is wearing a Red Spider Lily in her hair. End ID.]

Thankfully, now the party is back together with some VERY interesting developments (some of the romantic kind...👀 ). I have a lot more planned for them, but is what I have for now!

Wren @wrenandpaper.bsky.social · Mar 19

This is after a brutal 6 month separation from their party following the kidnapping of two party members. They stayed at a shady port town for information, working as a bartender, and this change in lifestyle came with a new look and a resolve in Lazuli to be more genuine with themself and others.

Wren @wrenandpaper.bsky.social · Mar 19

Ironically, I return with Laz for another post! I actually have a backlog of art to share, so I'm starting with them in their Part II look! I was really happy with how they turned out so now I'm making you all look at them! 🌊

Lazuli, a tall and muscular water genasi, looks at the camera with a casual smirk. They're wearing loose, flowing clothes, and their liquid hair as grown into a waterfall-like ponytail.

Lazuli of Runicar
Back of Jacket (which points to a lotus design on their outfit)
Barbarian, Path of the Storm Herald

QRP with something watery! 🌊

Oh hey, I have that! Thankyou Tai for the tag, me and Laz love you! I'm furthering the Lazuli agenda by making you all look at them! And one random watery Naruto OC for fun. Tagging @lunarstorms.bsky.social 💙

I got you! I don't have much uploaded here on bsky yet but I have examples i can show ❤️ something like this would be 15-25 USD depending on complexity. I also love the idea of seeing you colour the result, that sounds so fun! thankyou for the opportunity c:
