Wow! Lark drew art of an oc of theirs that isn’t Ivan! Sound the alarm!

Jokes aside, this is Camilla! Another oc from my ou, Verses of Eternity. She’s not a major character in the storyline but she’s connected to some bigger names.

Camilla was born sometime in the middle of the 1600s in Spain. The whole community she lived in was affected by a sickness that decimated the community and no one survived— except for Camilla. She was saved by a vampire who happened to be traveling through the area: Μανεθών (Manethon.) Manethon took pity on her suffering and changed her, and Camilla joined him and a Spanish man he had turned in 1606 named Luis traveling across Europe. Luis and Camilla did not get along but their sire eased things and over time they did become closer but after almost 200 years Camilla had grown restless and dissatisfied. She wanted to branch out on her own.

Manethon was a recluse and kept his children by his side, Camilla was done with it. Manethon blessed her request to leave (not that it would have stopped her from leaving if he hadn’t) and there were no hard feelings involved. With the exception of Luis. Luis took Camilla leaving very hard and viewed it as abandonment and that she didn’t care about them. It didn’t help that within 50 years of her leaving Manethon disappeared and Luis was now alone.

Camilla was unaware of their sire’s vanishing for some time as she was focused on living a life of excitement and discovery across the globe. She eventually settled in the Americas and started to pursue various activities involving show business and entertainment, and that’s where Luis tracked her down to. Their reunion was not great. Luis was really ugly to her and placed every sort of blame on her over Manethon leaving him and also her leaving him. After the reunion, they didn’t speak again for some years.

In modern day Camilla is a fairly successful pop star and has resumed communication with Luis. It’s not easy, especially on Luis’ end, but the both of them are trying to move on from the past since they’re all the family they have left.

That is until an old world vampire with ties to their sire suddenly forced his way into Luis’ life and put a wedge in their healing relationship.

First artfight attack of 2024 for @spacelingart! I loved this character’s design the moment I saw her and immediately had inspiration!

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐞! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️✨

Very on brand for me to finish this the last day of pride but I did it! I made my first pride themed art after years of always missing the deadline. I drew Drake and Ivan for it as they are very near and dear to me and my partner! I am filled with so much happiness this pride and to be celebrating it with my partner. I look forward to seeing many more pride months together! I included an alt version that might be easier to see for some!

- Drake (he/they) belongs to heyaitsfreyah and his flag colours are as follows: demiromantic, omnisexual and genderqueer.

- Ivan (he/she/they/it) is mine and their flag colours are as follows: demiromantic, demisexual, and agenderflux.

I have not finished a reference like this for Ivan (he/she/they/it) since 2015-17 and I am just in time for artfight too! Very pleased with his new main/default outfit and the mix of masc and femme design aspects. I believe I finally depicted a good visual of what her damaged wings look like as well as the fact they are modeled after swan wings when feathered.

It feels so good to have completed this. Although I draw Ivan very often — he is my favorite to draw for multiple reasons — it has always been difficult making a reference for him. I cannot count how many times I have started working on a reference for them and dropped it. Perfectionism always got in the way.

I do have a nude version of their reference and plan to design more outfits for them and fill their wardrobe up!

Some months ago I had this idea of a weird horse-moon noodle toy and loved it, even created some lore! It’s been a while since I made a creature so this was very fun.

Fun fact: It’s face is drawn on and the cream white part that you can see going through its jointed segments is the actual living toy. The wooden segments can be removed and the Puppet would be completely fine.

Concept sketches of Ivan’s mom, Dzidra of the Lauma, from a couple months ago. I’ve been trying to capture her facial features recently but she’s difficult.
