Child of What's Been Lost, Kings of Their Own Remedies

#the binding of isaac#binding of isaac#tboi#blue baby tboi#tboi blue baby#the keeper tboi#tboi the keeper#my art#fanart#These started off as me wanting to draw Blue Baby with a royal fluff#And the rest seems to be history hehe#I've been playing a lot of Isaac as of late/mostly trying to get unlocks#But I fear that have a -100 lose streak right now (I love play T. Keeper I'm just really bad at dodging at times hehe)#Generally speaking I really love the concepts behind Keeper & Blue Baby#The ways Isaac views his death in both disgust and hatred in BB#Or how Isaac likely see views The Keeper as his father's greed and how that'll kill him one day too#It's just a really sad sight to see and drawing those ideas was a really nice process#SIGH I love Issac so much I want to get him candied apples and let him watch silly cartoons#Maggots#(Just in case)

#my art#my ocs#original art#A morning refine of everyone's favorite smiling cat hehe#The depth behind this: First I wanted to draw hands. Then I wanted to draw a tone of hands. Then Fylik showed up hehe#One thing I really love about how I draw Fylik is how free I truly made her#I can draw him any for any reason and it's like “Yeah he'd do that” hehe#It's like how I draw Zacharie for those familiar with my OFF piece#They are but an artistic playdough that can I knead and stretch as see fit#A love thing indeed

A Lovely Comm from Worlds Beyond 💚

#my art#commission#object oc#Back with another comm!#I can't really put into words how fun I find these at times hehe#It's satisfying and fufilling sort of work#One that is a dance of understanding: The character/what the person wants/and knowing ones one skill#Translated into a something that - as long as you're willing to believe it - only you can do#A collection of knowledge put into a page/and collection of knowledge you are rewarded for to better survive an ever changing world#It brings me joy knowing I'm able to create such things while making an indiviual happy while doing so#All of this to say: I think doing commissions are fun hehe#For the process of this one in particular it was suprisingly really easy!#I thought I'd struggle a lot more with the crystals or rapier but once I go into the motions everything sort of fell into place#Still have ways to go of course! But here I think this mini skill showcase is quite nice#Though whether or not this is a case of me growing an ego is all up for you dear viewer to truly decide hehe

Connection & Familiarity Found in What's Been Lost

Day - 18 & 20

#rain world#rainworld#rain world scavenger#rain world looks to the moon#looks to the moon#rw art month#my art#fanart#If I remember correct there's a 3rd karma sybmol drawn in Moon's chamber#And I love the idea of scavengers viewing Moon as a friend and drawing on her#Then I thought about the overall tradegy of the Chieftain & Moon's situation#So I decide to visualize that concepts as seen here hehe#I imagine this interaction between them is simliar so a crow that you feed from time to time giving you a gift#The crow in question just so happens to have parellel to you in ways you shall never know#I also like to think these scavengers craft really strong paints to so their gifts to Moon can last just a tiny bit longer#Also misc: The structure in Moon's chest in her nervous system that floats in protective fluid#Normally it'd have a 'shell' aka her chest covering but the rain has not been kind

It is Important to Share Meals With Whom You Cherish Day 10 - Gourmand

#rain world#rainworld#rain world gourmand#rain world hunter#rw art month#my art#fanart#Another round of slugcats for the many!#One thing I'm really grateful for is that I've managed to make all of my current design for slugcats really fun hehe#I'd say is that I focus a lot on fun shapes to break up their respective designs#And overall add design motif I already enjoy: Scars/jewelry/hidden symbols#Resulting in me just loving to draws scugs whenever I get the chance#As for more misc thoughts: I really love the idea of Gourmand & Hunter being friends in another life#One created with a quest embedded into it's existience. A single purpose. Limited time with no chance at relief#A being born of freedom with a self imposed challenge. One full of life and an endless connect to the cycles#Gor-Gor being Hunter's companion is such times of personal crisis#Giving Hunter the life it deserves before its rots overtakes it truly comforting thought hehe#And in return Gourmand has never ends supples of meat and a friend to share it with#I also like to imagine that Hunter is an incredibly messy eater but Gourmand never comments on it. It's simply a sign Hunter enjoys its mea#Their friendship is very important to me you see#ALSO I don't think I'd ever shared: The markings on Gourmand's body are scars from previous expeditions#This stems from me thinking the jellyfish tentacles around Gourmand's arm in it's starting art where tattoos hehe

Day 8 - The Rot

#eye trauma#rain world#rain world five pebbles#five pebbles rain world#five pebbles#rw art month#my art#fanart#Oh Pebbles Five the tradegy you've created#I'm really proud of how this turned out!! Hehe#My favorite part of the process would the various designs I have throughtout Pebbles' clothing#It was really fun seeing and figuring how many symbols he'd be willing to wear#That and other symbolism I tried to convey#This is based off an idea I've wanted to visualize of rot coming out of one of Pebble's eye#A permanent scar/A reminder of his actions that caused him this pain#I also imagine the rot would have little interest in the puppet itself#So in this event while the puppet would still be damaged and partly eaten; The rot would go on for the 'grander' parts of the can#Perhaps there's more long legs where that came from in the eyes of Pebbles#As for RW art month once again no promised that'll that do more#I'd love to but I understand my own flesh better than any#I'm just glad to draw more Rain World again. I truly do cherish this game and I've love to create more for it when the time allows

Another Comm From Other Realms 💚 (Click for better quailty)

#my art#commission#object oc#Back again with a another lovely commission!!#Full disclosure I almost bit off way more than I can chew with this one hehe#Which isn't necessarily a bad thing/ rather it's just the fact I give myself a lot of details and structures to keep track of#And with me wanting to get things done fast it did put a challenge on me with how much I had to add + add on#All that being said I'm incredibly proud of this!! I just need to let myself slow down and take in all the details in all#The character/design here give me a lot to work with and I'm really glad I manage to capture some of those ideas here!#That and I think this is my largest MS work yet. And if not it's definitely my largest currently#I'd say it mostly the wings that did it hehe#Though overall I hope that the details on clutter aren't *too* overwhelming#I used the wings to as a sort of pallete cleanser. While still detailed they're mostly blank so the eyes can rest of then#Then with the wings naturally trail back to the figure the eye can go back when they're ready#That's what I hoped for of course! Only you the view can decide if such a thing work for you now

Comms for Those in the Realm of Discord 💚

#my art#commission#object oc#Back with another lovely set of commissions!!#I'm incredibly proud of these two OMGA#These two comms in particular play into two I love doing in my MS paint works:#Adding lots of fun miscellaneous details for the first and each panel adding onto a narrative in the second#The first piece help me find out what exactly I need to *learn* about it graffiti is truly capture it's carefree nature#I have tons to learn but looking at references studying certain styles of letter was just SO much!!#That and I got a bit carried away given how much I could really fit into the canvas without making up the overall compostion hehe#I added a few OSC jokes here and there so I hope you have fun if you spot them!!#As for the second; Star truly gives me a lot to work with when its comes to Star's OCs#There's so much fun narrative bits and details I can weave into a piece if I truly wanted to and I do my best express that as I go along#That and Star's designs are just so fun!! Hehe#Also - Can't say I promise anything - but I'd love to get around to having public comms this month!!#So if you wish keep your eyes peeled in case I finally gain that confidence :}

A Lounge of Lizards

#rain world#rainworld#rain world lizard#rw lizard#my art#fanart#I had a set of lizard busts I've been meaning to polish and decided to used them for color practice hehe#My overall goal was to have distinctive vaules while keeping a more limited palette#The challenge came from the fact that on the surface the colors can feel and look quite similar to each other#But play with them just right and you can a 'light' patch amongst your middles tones and vice visa#I think I did a pretty good job but of course there's dozens of things to look more into hehe#I also took a lot of inspiration from momopatchi. They're color work is just SO GOOD and I'm glad I captured a tiny bit of that spark here!#Sigh is feels to feeling have more splashes of color in my gallery once more

#Bob it's very ironic you're reblogging this I was in fact 14 when we become mutuals PFFFFF#Sigh it's nice reflecting on though times of old#I was a lot more sporadic and chaotic about what I'd post#As time marches forward I have mellowed in the ashes of the combusting phoenix#Though now that I think about it I wonder how many of my older followers are still here#I do my best to recognize reoccurring accounts but sad to said I'm not sure#Besides you Bob hiiiii#If any of you following me since I was 14 I was still out there: Hello!!#Thank you so much for sticking around with me hehe#Perhaps I'll indulge in more Homestuck & OSC if the winds call my name again#Our Internet bond is strong and near unbreaking#You will forever hold my gratitude 💚#BUT if you followed me on Twitter specifically back then OH MY GOD I'M SO SORRY#I had too much free time... and so many awful ways to use it...#inkblog

#my art#my ocs#illustration#furry oc#original art#I think I've mentioned this before but once again it feels great making original illustrations like this hehe#It's to the point where I'm confident in nearly everything I've posted this past month#As if a pestering weight has been lifted from me. While I'm forever critial I've manage to really focus on the details love#Each one a story to share#Each one representing a skill I can improve#Each one just a lovely show of my hard work#I feels amazing to finally get here. And while it might not last forever I'll cherish this funny feeling

jaundice & root

#The linework in both respective pieces is simply delightful#And one thing that's interesting to observe is the 'clutter' and shape of the lines in both#Jaundice is made of up bold and structured lines that creates strong shapes#Giving everything a subtle 'craved in stone' like look to it#And the gaps used to represent fur is a lovely choice. Breaking up the strong lines while being their own#Giving the imagery of a predator having its fur puffed up; ready to strike a foe or simply intimidate#The complexity of the lines begin in the strong hatching#Crossed hatching being darker shadow with it's single lined counterparts being a transition of light#As for Root; he is made up rough curves and the roots and flora against his body make complex shapes#Curving and twisting into each other in a chorus of sorts creating a more complex silhouette#Lost in Time also has more inner conflicts: Hatching in his shell/gray etched into his roots and body#Contrasting Jaundice's more white against black lines#And the overall feeling captured in Root's piece is interesting to dissect#The possible pain of losing control of one's body or the agony of being stagnant can be read in it#But the simply distress in his eyes is a clear as ever#Simply two really incredibly panels OMGA#inkblog

#my art#my ocs#illustration#original art#I've been really pleased with my recent MSpaint illustrations these past few weeks hehe!!#I suppose it's just the simplicity of the program that helps me create mini narratives throughout them#I'm about to craft some snippits of story and hopefully whoever looks at them can point out those tiny details#As for these two in general I've been on a grind to draw more four-legged animals so here we are!!#I have to say hooved beasts like elk are deceivingly simple#I understand the bones and underlying structures fine/ it's just capture that accurate look at gets me#In my case its mostly the hindlegs and ankles I'll need to keep praciting#I'll need to do more proper studies in the future because as you see these two are very stylized and I just needed things to look 'right'#BUT from what I've learned and what I've drawn I'm happy with the elk I drew so all is well and cheerful hehe

A Gaggle of Masks

#slay the princess#stp#stp long quiet#stp opportunist#stp cold#stp smitten#my art#fanart#Was a long to coming but I finally have Slay the Princess!!!#I have about 19 hours in as time of writing hehe#Shown here is my interpretation of how the various voice work#They're mask similar to ones used for plays & theater#With the Long Quiet not being about to quite transform it's body forms temporary fleshy masks for each voice#But of course they're just that; masks; there's no true change to Long Quiet#And once the Long Quiet takes proper look at himself in the mirror the voices cease#They can no longer speak#Design wise these are very much in the workshopping phase and I might go back and fix thing up here and there#BUT#For now I really do like what I have for the Opportunist#Though that may be because I already really look in-game design hehe#Sigh there's no much design potential for this game I hope I'll survive my swim in boundless ideas
