Yesterday (maybe the day before) Hibiscus_Cove on TH just kind of. Gave me a character. And this is the character's new ref!
This one isn't quite as refined as my usual art because it wasn't supposed to be a full thing at first. By the time I decided to finish it up I was too far along to redo the lines lol. I still like it though.
One of the main design changes was adding more colours and patterns. I tried to stay true to the OG though, and I think it worked? I also gave them a bit of an outfit and I changed their species. They were originally just a dragon, but I've got a species I'm developing and I'm looking for more OCs to add to it, so yeah. This guy got hit by the species beam.
Likes and reblogs are greatly appreciated! But don't feel obligated of course :3

Of a night at the drive-in with an AR-15 :)
I made this little baby during AF, and I'm super proud of it, so yeah! At the time, I was trying to experiment with my art style (I still am, technically, but anyway). I still have yet to decide which parts to permanently incorporate into my art style, but I have some ideas.

Oh god, it's art dump time (ft. all of my 2024 AF attacks)
Putting the good ones above the cut LOL
This grid setup is very awkward.
I wasn't as productive as I wanted to be this year, but I'm still happy with all of my attacks. Sorry for never posting here. I always forget that I have Tumblr. Maybe one day I'll get good at posting.
Hi! I wanna share something special!
I have an OC named Manitari whom I adore. She’s a mushroom cat I made with @aposterous ! She’s been getting a lot of attention on Art Fight and the entires are absolutely BEAUTIFUL, so I want to show you them!
Firstly, this is Manitari:
She’s a giant autistic fluffer who lives in a cottage in the woods and her special interest is mushrooms! This ranges from cooking to gardening to… um… getting high…
But now! Onto her attacks!
Aposterous!
NexeyWexey!
@hannyatiger!
@nyanbacon!
And finally - he’s not on art fight this year, but
Foxfire!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DRAWING MY LIL SHROOMCAT!!!! :D
Time for my,,, monthly post
I'm doing art fight this year!! I'm on team Seafoam (obviously) and this year I'm going to try and be really productive! Consider following or attacking me. I've got mutuals on high priority this year!
:D
these dragons are QUEER!!!
It seems that I never posted this before! I have decided to rectify this mistake because I'm super proud of this piece.
The character here is my sona, Cosi!
I'll hopefully be making more drawings similar to this one in the future! Who knows, maybe it'll become part of my art style.
Reblogs are appreciated!!

Art trade with @hannyatiger !
This one took me 6 hours and 22 minutes, the second longest time of all the art trades I've done this year. I don't really know why it took that long. I guess I was just really slow at it.
It was an interesting challenge because I rarely work with really brightly coloured characters, so I had a bit of an experience trying to find a way to make it look a little less intense on the eyes.
KITTY ON THE BALL!! This is awesome by the way!!
I drew @aposterous character Carnical! I love the silly robotic clown kitty :3
This is apart of an art trade I’m doing with them! I enjoyed drawing their little goober
Anyways, circus cat cause gave off clown vibes lol
Art trade with mushroomaaaart on Instagram, ft their OC, Miko!
I'm very happy with the background on this one. I installed the newest CSP update last night, which FINALLY added chromatic aberration and a variety of other useful features, and it really helped with this. Miko looks pretty cute here too. I think this looks kind of like a Warrior Cats book cover. Lol
I'm still experimenting with my art style, but I think I'm getting closer to something I like. Right now I'm trying to focus on lineart because I feel like my lines are pretty boring and I want to make my digital art look a bit more like the pen sketches I like to do. I didn't try very much to do that in this drawing, but I probably will in the future.
Time spent: 4h 20min (legitimately lol)
Therivin! Or Theri. NPC Character I made for an RP. I had a lot of fun writing them and I got very attached lol
Lol I forgot to post this here. This is Mako, an old-ish OC of mine.
I'm trying to go through some of my old OCs and draw refs for them, and so far, this is the only one I've completed.
Mako originated in 2020 as a demo sona design. I never used her, but I liked her design enough for the concept to stick in my brain for the following three years. I did some redesign concepts for her last year and then promptly forgot about them until a couple of days ago when I noticed she was missing from my Toyhouse page. I decided to give her a ref, and here we are.
Her name comes from the Mako shark, but the shark aspects of her design are based on blacktip reef sharks and tiger sharks. The main inspo for this iteration of her design was how her old design looked a little like a sunset, or like musk sticks (if you don't know what musk sticks are, they're a pink Australian lolly. Look it up). Based on the sunset idea, I turned her into a surfer girl. Lol.
Art trade w/ @smewduck ft their OC, Night!
Night is such a cool character and drawing her was really fun! I haven't made any finished art in weeks so it's not my best, but it was still nice to make. I don't have much else to say lol
OMG
THE CURTAINS FLEW, AND THEN HE APPEARED

So pretty!!!
Hello! I crawl out of the abyss to share some artwork i did for my graphic design class :> cheers lads
My girlfriend had a comic idea and I just HAD to translate and draw it
The ink bottle lying on your desk... begins to crawl away..???
I really need to do this challenge but for now, look at this
It's my turn ! I absolutely adore the concept of this challenge and i've decided to participate ! My very first Warrior Cats challenge, whooo ~ So, it was the first time i draw Crowfeather, Cinderpelt and Ashfur, and i did a bit of research to add my own headcanons to their designs. Let's take a look at all of them, shall we ? Bluestar : Pretty straight foward for the pretty blue. I already designed her, and she's the character i draw the most for Warrior cats. I give her the red stain, as a little nod to Little Pistol, aand black pointed ears... because of her sister youknow. Crowfeather : I don't have a big opinion on this fella, except that i didn't want his fur to be a blueish gray. The only blueish gray is Bluestar and her childrens in my head ! So, i've decided to go for a pretty green. Like that, he will look really close to his daughter Hollyleaf. And why the long fur ? Because asian long hair are handsome and I headcanon him as a handsome boy. Cinderpelt : I had a big headcanon for her. Her fur. I'd always visualise her with a brownish gray, that looked like burning wood. A warm dark gray, to go against the yellow and dirty gray of Yellowfang ! And her bushy fur come from some art i've seen of her. Also, i've found a cat who look pretty close to my headcanon and took inspiration from his fur. For her eyes, i've decided to go for a really dark and desatured blue, so it won't clash with her fur. Ashfur : Also a big headcanon for him. Since i saw his "You must destroy" design, i've headcanon him with a cream belly and a dirty gray. I've decided to go for a pink gray, more on the light side. For his eyes, he got those heart shaped pupils and i've give him glowing clear blue eyes. In ancient greece, blue eyes were believed to be a sign of insanity, and I feel like those beautiful glowing eyes (that no other cats would have) give him a creepy vibe.
made this for oomf but you can have it too. a little breakdown of my process with bird wings if anyone finds it useful
I've been assembling a backlog for my DA, and this is the third thing from it. Thought it'd be worth posting here, too. It's cover art for my main Spotify playlist. More under the cut.
The playlist is called jammin (lowercase j) and I made it at the end of 2022. For a while, it had no icon, until I made this in like, mid-2023. I don't know why I didn't post it to my DA earlier, other than for fear of people making fun of my music taste. I'm very self-conscious about this stuff. It's a miracle I'm even posting this
If you want to investigate the playlist, here's a link (that Tumblr turned into a preview. Oh well):
It's full of Lemon Demon, Bo Burnham and Will Wood because I have problems. It's also heavy on the swearing and a few of the songs have some potentially upsetting content in them. But it's generally safe to listen to.
I haven't been super active lately (I forgot Tumblr existed, oops) but I made this at some point in February. It's my sona, Cosi. Drawn for a DTIYS I'm hosting on DA. It's still open so you can join if you want
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
may or may not be making an alternative sona
Bark bark bark
I feel like shit!! So here's some art!!
This is Lightning Bird, an OC I don't use much. She's mean.
I'm currently not really sure what I want my art to look like so I'm trying to experiment a bit. This drawing features speed-sensitive lineart. I mostly just want to experiment with colour more though. Eh
Time to descend back into the art crisis void
