why is your shit so fuckin' crusty?

in case anyone wanders across this blog and wonders why, here's the answer: tumblr sold out to midjourney and i'm not interested in having my work scraped against my wishes. so i have taken proactive measures, even if it looks ugly.

want the crustless images for personal use? feel free to send me a message, and i would be happy to provide you with it.

artfight attack that i whipped up in about two hours on august 1st for oatmeald of their character tommy. check out their attack for me here! i was going to sleep the previous night and thinking about the attacks i had left to do and was thinking about the fishbowl tommy wears on his head. and i was like “hmm what if there were actual fish in there” and then i was like “nah that would take too much time to draw out properly” but then i was like “hmmmm sleeping in a terrarium would look cool” so thus this was made.

artfight attack i finished july 31st for DestineyDoesStuff. check out the attack she made for me here! honestly the best work i did this round. referenced nomax’s stuff a lot for this and i’m pretty happy with how it came out.

artfight attack i finished july 30th. check out the attack i revenged here! did this one fairly quickly and futzed around with gradient maps a bunch. serves nicely as my new lock screen lol

artfight attack i finished july 26th for 1step1101 of their geometry dash OC, unistep. check out the attack she made for me here! haven’t seen geometry dash OCs before, so must say it intrigued me enough to take a crack at it and see if i could make something cool out of it. metahuman creator is a great tool for generating your own references, i find.

personal piece about how i've been feeling for the past four months or so. i am mired in this disgusting sludge and it is incredibly difficult to claw my way out of it. i would just cut myself off from the situation that is bringing on all these negative feelings, but it is not that easy. thus, every day i grapple with huge amounts of stress and anxiety and feelings of isolation. i feel like i am screaming in pain and everyone is letting the wound fester for the sake of keeping an uneasy peace. i am reminded of it daily and my loneliness gives me too much time to sink back into this pit of sludge. too disabled for acceptance, not disabled enough for patience. please do not worry too much about me. i am managing and hopefully will see the light at the end of the tunnel soon.

please see full resolution to peep all the cool details

commission done for @superdeluxecactus (blog features a lot of anime titty so beware) of his wolf warforged ulvur, featuring crazy-ass antlers and non-canon energy arms that i thought would be cool. think the clouds came out pretty cool here. zoOoOom in for details; there are some pretty cool star fields in there. i also made some sort of weird cloud effect for the wings and whatnot. anyway... hope you like it. :)

doodle of my yuan-ti cleric that i finished september 7th. got more pieces in the works; this is just a personal piece i made as a first look at the character. i left out a lot of details on this in the interest of time

this is something did for artfight of shadowolfpro’s character hali. you can check out her attack for me here!

this one's simpler than my other attacks. i cranked it out in the dead of night at around 2 AM and it was quite the struggle fighting the sleep to get it fixed up and ready before the artfight deadline rolled around. somehow i got hit with five attacks this year, mostly from people i haven't met before. blessed by the random character selector i guess??? either way, i was quite enamored by this character's cute design. not exactly a bird, but a birdfolk, but i do love birds so lotus caught my eye nonetheless.

this is something did for artfight of TNR's character grasya. you can check out her attack for me here! think this came out super dope

this is something did for artfight of @saturneidae‘s character hali. you can check out her attack for me here!

can you feel the power course through your veins? welp here's another attack i spent too long on. hooooooo boy next revenges are gonna have to be more abstract. i learned a bit on how to render water and make that weird-ass energy effect on the ground for this one. this was supposed to be a quick and abstract work... fuck lmao

the world must have gone mad because this is the second piece i've finished this week. somehow i did this in one sitting. it was supposed to be just a quick ugly sketch as a placeholder asset for something i'm building, but i just kept adding onto it and then at some point i realized i'd finished on accident. the design illustrated here is an original concept that is based on the mascots of the art commissions discord server, which were originally created by synthpolice. i created my own concept that is basically like an upgraded cool mech version of the two. if it feels like there's spider-verse influence, that's because there is. :) this piece uses halftone brushes from photoshop supply.

this is something did for artfight of Gothikit's character wynter, plus an alternate version i made. you can check out her attack for me here! i ended up spending a little too long on this. learned a lot about human anatomy in the process. hope my next attacks won't fucking take so long because there is not that much time left until the end of the month.

bit of an abstract doodle i made of LullTheLight's character lull in between working on a huge painting i have in the works. very experimental; took a lot of artistic license on the design.
