enjoyed the colors in this one (:

heartleaved commission timelapse

I really enjoy doing pixel art commissions of pets! the fur texture was particularly fun to figure out in this one.

lion guardant

I've been struggling with motivation to work on personal art and also been really frustrated with my regular workflow, so, after my long break last month I decided to try working on something totally different!

this is my plush lion I recently bought that I'm a little obsessed with, and the background is based on the pa...

luckies commission timelapse

finally catching up with my commissions from last month! I had fun with the fur and blood with this one hehe (:

pixels & sketches

I'm back! and mostly doing okay after covid other than some fatigue and brain fog so I'm trying to take it very easy, or as much as I can with the state of things lol. I didn't draw that much while I was sick, so most of these are from just before and after. this sketch dump includes:

pixel art tiles of judi, ellie, hal...

taking a break this month

I'm taking a break from posting here for the rest of the month because my roommate and I caught covid over the weekend- I'm taking the time to take care of them and rest. I'll hopefully be back to posting next month. thank you all for your support <3

recent commissions

mostly design commissions from last month- a pouf for buttermaster (deviantart), vespire for inneedofausername (deviantart) & mantibab for badgerteethh (deviantart), plus a youtube thumbnail I'm still working on for simplysnaps! which I've been taking my time with and wrestling hard with the colors... color and light a gu...

what a distinguished gentleman...

fursona & sphinx sketches

since remmy mentioned my old seal fursona last month I thought it'd be fun to share some of the redesigns I've been playing around with of my other old fursonas! the sketches of my dragon fursona are a couple years old but I still think the frogmouth bird idea for their head is funny. some of the lion fursona sketches are a l...

anguiculus commission process

this was a very peaceful and meditative commission to work on! I made a gif of the process screenshots I took-

I listened to a lot of year of the griffin by diana wynne jones while I worked on this, which was great like a...

may to august sprites timelapse

quite a span of time covered in this batch of sprites! I always have a lot of fun doing pixels of people's pets like the dog here, need to do more examples of those...

some traditional drawings

two recent traditional drawings I did for my roommate's family- the first is their dad's cat siggy with prismacolor markers, and the second is a random bunny pic for their grandma done with prismacolor pencils. these were both really fun to draw even though I had to fight to the death with my markers to squeeze the last of th...

zodiac designs part 2

they are finally finished...!! I decided to include both gemini designs in the same batch since that's on brand for gemini anyway- one is based more on gemini vibes (a fickle fae chimera with two faces) and the other is based on mythological themes like the rest of the designs so far (the horsemanship associations of castor a...

june to august sketches

one billion oc sketches upon ye...! much to explain here so I will ramble a bit:

first are some drawings of ćiro and briar, who I'm pretty sure I've mentioned are cousins, but act more like siblings. ćiro is actually a few years older than briar but because he's a dragon he doesn't age like humans do and he gets quite...

sothasil artfight attack timelapse

I recommend slowing this one down a bit since it goes so fast... which does reflect how I absolutely blasted through most of this drawing in one morning last month haha. I wish I had recorded the sketching part of this too, it was a fun challenge trying to get that feeling of the twist that cats do when they're realigning in ...

artfight part 2

here's the rest of the pieces I did for artfight! I was not expecting to get this many done... I kind of went ape... a lot happened this month and I threw myself into artfight to cope, but I had a lot of fun with it and loosened up quite a bit! it's a tough choice to not take commissions for a month and I'm really lucky I can...

keydemon commission process - shading

here's the last bit I recorded of this commission of some of the shading! at this point the colors were actually a bit lighter/more pastel than they showed in the video, but I liked how they looked here so I tweaked the whole thing darker/more vivid after this.

keydemon commission process - lines

20 whole minutes of live lineart action! I split this from the rest of the last video because I thought 30 minutes straight might be too long but then again I guess I could just post a whole half hour video and you can watch as much as you want? I thought about speeding this up too but you can do that through the playback spe...

keydemon commission process - sketching

I recorded quite a bit of this fullbody commission for keydemon from last month, so here's some of the sketching part! this is the second thing I recorded after that pouflon test video so I do go off the bottom of the frame a bit but I'm trying to watch that in later recordings... might buy one of those gooseneck phone holder...

artfight part 1

halfway through artfight...!! haven't drawn as much as I would've liked but I'm happy with the fullbody drawings I did! I'm going to try to do different kinds of drawings for my next attacks, like headshots and such...

pokemew2 commission timelapse

this guy is such a classic dragon I thought he'd make a great big sprite! I've been on a big dragon kick lately. need to draw more dragons 🗣️

trotts commission timelapse

this design is so cute... tried to get a good sense of depth with this one!

fluffyfenn commission timelapse

I drew a fullybody commission of this character a few years ago- it was fun to do pixel art of him this time!

I listened to the darkest part of the forest by holly black while working on this and I think some of the young adult vibe did stick to it haha. I didn't read much YA as a kid but I've been reading through some ...

plushcercius commission timelapse

this big sprite is a bit smaller than usual since the commissioner wants to make it into a cross stitch- they've already done one of a previous commission I did for them that turned out amazing!...

may & june commissions

here's the finished converted design commission for inneedofausername (deviantart), big sprites for trotts (discord), fluffyfenn (furaffinity), plushcercius (twitter), & pokemew2 (twitter), a pixel portrait for kibbowle (twitter) & the sketch for a fullbody commission for key! I'll be posting the timelapses for the pi...

lineart test vid

since I have a better desk set up now I thought it might be fun to try recording my Actual Hand drawing! please excuse my cracked ipad screen and three mysterious purple dots from my phone's camera <3 if I do more of these I'll try to adjust my easel to a shallower angle so it's not as tilted. let me know if you'd want to ...

may & june sketches

since we moved in april I've been so occupied with managing the new place that I haven't been drawing much outside of commissions... but my workspace is a billion times nicer than before (right by the window in the sun all morning- for the last 3 years I worked in a dark corner 20 feet from a window lol) so hopefully when thi...

oleaspur commission timelapse

my lovely rubber tree modeled for the plant in this piece and I modeled for the guy. I listened to the whole audiobook for carmilla while I worked on it, which was genuinely creepy and darkly sapphic... 👍

morihart13 commission timelapse

the colors and background of this one were a challenge...! been trying to pay more attention to lighting in my portraits and treat them more like paintings.

endtemple commission timelapse

this one was sooo fun to work on. the reflective armor and colors were both inspired by the knight of the flowers-
