This year at the Dokomi, the third colume of the OCᐁCULT Fashion Zine, Critical Fit, was released, which is themed around OCs dressed in DnD and Fantasy-inspired clothing (based on the "Warriors" theme this year's Dokomi had). If you didn't have the chance to grab a copy at the Dokomi (or if you're missing some of the trading cards that were released with the zine), you can now order yours at their online shop: 🛒 https://occultzine.bigcartel.com/

Work has been overwhelming the last couple of months and I somehow got lost with keeping up with tending to all my social media accounts. My apologies! I'm currently trying to work out a solution by fitting in a Social Media Care Day into my weekly schedule. Thus, for quite some time I'll be posting "older" works that I haven't gotten around posting here yet.

Starting off with my Summer Illustration, which I finished just in time for the Dokomi back in August. This piece has been on my art bucket list for quite some time now, and I am glad that I got the chance to work on it at last. Ever since I've been to Australia a few years ago, I wanted to draw an illustration with clear water, sea creatures and corals, and I opted for my character Abby as I feel she'd certainly be one to enjoy surfing in the summer. I hope you like this illustration, as for myself it is one of my personal favourites of mine.

An Illustration I had planned for this year's Valentine's Day, but working on it had to be postponed a bit due to another project I've started working on. I've been working with a photo reference for the pose, as I do struggle with complex poses and perspective (Reference Link)

A while back, I drew Venti from Genshin Impact for my Patreon. It's been a while since I last did a full illustration using my COPIC markers, but if possible I'd use them more often again. For the background I painted a simple sunrise sky using watercolors, as after testing it out on another sheet of paper I noticed that the marker paper I used doesn't work well with watercolors. Next time I'd like to try out using markers and watercolors on Mixed Media Paper.

Here's my annual Christmas Illustration from 2020, which I finished a little belated to the actual holidays. But I didn't want to rush and possibly ruing it in the end. This has been my first time in a very VERY long time attempting to draw a dragon/wyvern. Next time I draw one, I'd like to put a little more time into working out the scales.

A while ago, as part of the AMAKO Christmas market, I offered shikishi commissions and Leuccosia requested me to draw Zhongli from Genshin Impact. Thank you so much for making me draw him 😭❤️

He is one of my favourite characters from Genshin Impact, and while I was losing my mind about his outfit a few times, I still had a lot of fun drawing him 😆

As part of the AMAKO Online Convention I offered smaller illustration commissions. Karne asked me to draw his Shadowrun Character Raik with some winterly clothes. Right in time for Christmas slowly coming up back at the time~

I had so much fun working on this commission and trying out some of the colors I hadn't used before 😭💞 you can actually see the bottles in one of the photos, those are iridescent calligraphy inks and they look absolutely stunning. I'll use them more often from here on out 👀✨

In late 2020 I took on some shikishi commissions as part of an online convention. This one features skrillstarming's lovely OC Xenia! 💕 I had a lot of fun experimenting with the lines, using both my sepia and black ink fineliners. They look so nice in combination with the golden paint 😭❤️

A small commission I did as part of my AMAKO special offers. Carina_zeichnet requested me to draw a sketch of my OC Abby in her witchy attire for her ConHon. Thank you so much for letting me draw my girl!! (Ｔ▽Ｔ) ♡

A shikishi commission I finished today as part of my AMAKO special sale. It's for MadCat, who requested me to draw a warrior/adventurer with werewolf, cat or dragon features! Thank you so much for commissioning me, I hope it'll arrive safe and sound at your place soon!

This is the other ACEO that finished recently to have it available at the MEX-Berlin this upcoming weekend, and it might be my personal favourite yet ♥️

For once, I actually did two versions of the same ACEO as after finishing the one with the purple dress, I've been wondering what Gaia and the ACEO might look like in an all white dress. I think I do like the white dress version slightly better than the other. But I'm curious: which one is your favourite though? ゝ◡╹)ノ♡

Last Friday and Saturday I worked on the two ACEOs I had linearted before my recent vacation to get them done in time for the MEX-Berlin this upcoming weekend. One of them was this one featuring Albedo from Overlord.

I've been itching to draw Albedo for quite a while now, as I've been enjoying the manga a lot ever since I've picked it up two years ago. I'm very happy with how this ACEO turned out, though I have to admit that some of the details gave me a bit of trouble during coloring.

This is my contribution to the "Witch, please!" Ink Zine Vol. 2 (Ink Zine Witch, please), which is about to be released very soon ✨

I've finished the illustration itself back in June, but since it is part of a zine, we were supposed to keep it a surprise till the physical preorder period had wrapped up.

I'm extremely honored that I was allowed to contribute to this zine, as it features some stellar artists from Germany, Austria and Switzerland and I absolutely love the theme and aesthetics. This was also the first illustration that I have illustrated using liquid ink exclusively.

Give the zine a visit online: https://inkzinewitchplease.carrd.co/ You can still buy digital copies of the zine via the official shop: inkzinewitchplease.bigcartel.com

Last weekend I finished the raffle prize for pumpkin.dragon from instagram after doing a bit of final polishing. I actually tried to finish it before I went on vacation two weeks ago, but I couldn't do it in time. I used my last days off to finish the prize tho and had some really nice, long art sessions these past days >v<

pumpkin.dragon asked for an anime portrait of herself that she could give to her boyfriend as a present. Doing an anime portrait of a real person has been a first for me, as usually I am drawing fictional characters. Nonetheless it has been a fun experience to draw a character with photo references and getting the characteristics right.

Sunflowers are beautiful 🌻 💖 

Recently I finished another flower-themed illustration, this time featuring my OC Abby. Eventually I’ll make a full set with a few more of my OCs, but for now I’ve got to work on a few other illustrations. I absolutely love how this illustration turned out overall, and I’m glad that I’ll be able to offer it as prints and postcards on the convention I’ll be attending this upcoming weekend. I do hope you’ll like it as well ゝ◡╹)ノ♡

A throwback to 2018, when I did my first watercolor illustration of my Abby. I’m proud to say that my coloring has improved quite a lot over these past two years~

A Patreon ACEO Request I did for @petitefeu ゝ◡╹)ノ♡

She requested me to draw Lucifer from Obey me! and so I did. I did run into a few problems with this ACEO, as I am not as experienced at drawing handsome men (as I mostly draw girls .w.; ), so getting a nice-looking sketch and lineart done took me a while. But now that it is colored, I am quite satisfied with the final result. I’ll still need to practise drawing men more, to get a bit more variety in my art (；・∀・)
