Well, I have now finished the banner art. Don’t know if it will fully show or not, but hopefully it will.

Anyway, fixed up the colors on the fire. Pretty proud of this honestly. I’ll make a character sheet for Sanctum soon. For now, enjoy the political art.

For those who may question why the flag’s slogan is “Live Longer Than Trump”: It is for those who may want to kill themselves due to the results of Trump winning the popular vote. It’s for those who know someone who has succeeded because of this. It’s for those who still need a reason to keep going.

Many people will be affected if it is him inaugurated in 2025. Evangelical Christians will come out of the woodwork and will try to push as much as they can within legal right.

We’re all scared. We might as well hope to live through Trump’s (hopefully not) second term. We will get through this. We gotta hope we do. We need to for the next generations to see us and how we persevered through this tumultuous time. Peaceful protests and trying to keep the tyrannical Cheeto out of office peacefully is the best way to do so.

Hopefully you all enjoy the art. I’m gonna hopefully not deal with anymore political issues for now. Again, this is an art account. But I gotta say it so others know my stance. So others know this is a safe space.

Banner Update

So… to the audience in America will know that we have got the evil Cheeto skinned man back in office. This affects me too since I also live in the USA.

Apologies for the wrongly put joke. It’s how I am currently coping with the situation right now.

Anyway, with this news, I’m still going to be proud on my accounts. I’m making a banner that isn’t anthro. It is of a feral version of Sanctum running with a long banner in their jaws. (Sketch will be added to the post.) the banner will either say “Live Longer Than Trump” on the trans flag, or will have a set of lyrics from “Mr. Please” by Rare Americans with a blood red flag and a pale pink color for the lettering. I haven’t decided yet.

With the current situation, it would be better to show my stance. While I don’t want to get political here, I’m not going to pretend I’m not affected by the election either. It will affect my art and life. Might as well come out to say it.

On a more positive note, I did do a change of my profile picture. Here’s the sketch and finished profile picture. I hope y’all enjoy

Mascot Update

Hello! I’m finally getting to making my mascot for this account.

Their name is Sanctum and they’re a Hellhound (mixture of several hellhound species from different myths). Their gender identity is genderfluid and gendervoid, so they feel both a void with their gender, and all genders at once at varying degrees depending on the vibes. Sanctum’s preferred pronouns are they/them or it/its (neopronouns are also on the table). Their orientation is on the aroace spectrum, specifically being gray romantic and greysexual. So, if I do ship art, it’ll be considered a “self insert ship” or they will be shipped with characters in fandoms my partners and I are in. Maybe both. Depends.

More information will come in the post when I announce my updated profile picture and banner. Information such as powers/abilities, age, and so on. So, I guess all there is now is to give a little sneak peak into the character’s appearance. Here goes nothing!

Using 4-5 different species here. Plus some of my own ideas. Those species are (appearance wise): The Huodou, the Cŵn Annwn, the Black Dog, and the Black Shuck.

Well, here goes nothing. This is my interpretation of Polites from EPIC: The Musical as a pegasus. Reasoning for him being a pegasus? I thought it would look cool if I were to recreate Open Arms in the MLP universe. Especially with him and Unicorn Odysseus.

Now, I’m fully aware that MLP pegasi do not look like this. This is just a headcanon design. I personally prefer this. Even if it’ll be a lot more complicated to make art.

Didn’t shade the picture as I didn’t want to deal with shading. Probably won’t be shaded later either.

Now, for design choices I took for Polites. Yellows and greens are interesting. Yellows typically are to indicate happiness and joy. Greens normally induce a sense of tranquility, peace, and harmony. With Polites character in “Open Arms” being the way that he’s normally portrayed, these two colors make a lot of sense. For the cutie mark, it’s to harken back to “Open Arms”, as well as his impending death. The length of the ghost pony mostly is to keep the design simplified, but also make a note as to the fact Mr. Jalapeño likes to traumatize us with Polites singing “Open Arms.”

I genuinely have no qualms with it though. I actually find it very sweet and I understand why it’s put in so many times. The musical is about ruthlessness and when to be that monster. If Polites didn’t die, then what’s the need? If Eurylochus did listen to him and left the wind bag alone, or didn’t start the mutiny? He has a point. We need to hear a musical about ruthlessness and when to let it out.

If I had to say what Greek story I’d love to hear about in a musical, maybe the Iliad or possibly a story that follows the stories of the gods. With the second one, possibly taking it in a “Ride the Cyclone” -esq way. Could be one or multiple.

Either way, I am just really happy with the results!

Introduction

Hello there! This is my art blog. I realized my main blog ( @tyr-the-fenrir ) Has become a mash-up blog and any art posted there will inevitably be pushed down by reblogs and posts about other things.

This blog is to repost my art and bring it all together under one account. This includes my furry art, wings of fire, dnd, warrior cats, original creatures/characters, and other kinds of art.

My art will be a mix f different things. Sketches from my physical sketchbooks are in the traditional art route. For digital, there's a few things I use. I own an IPhone, so I use Procreate Pocket primarily. Though I used to use Sketchbook on it too. I also use Sketchbook on the chromebook my girlfriend gave to me. Most of my art will be saved from my phone sketchbook app as I plan to delete it soon. Storage on the 7+ is absolute shit lol.

I may do unconventional art such as art from other sites or programs such as Minecraft or the like. That is to be seen though.

If you want to know about me as a person more, the blog I tagged is mine and my introduction is lengthy enough to get a vibe of me.

Rules/Boundaries

I don't like 'em as much as the next (this is a joke), but to keep things running smooth, I must implement them.

I will not tolerate drama on this account. I do support Ukraine and Palestine, the LGBTQ+ community, the alterhuman/nonhuman community, and the plural community. But this is an account for art. My political views and beliefs are not going to be posted. My main account will be the place for all of that if I so choose.

I am not here to be told how much my art costs, or to do things I don't want to do. I eventually do plan on taking commissions. I have already cheap prices for them. (The cheapest item being a chibi sketch which is between $1-$3 USD.) As for the second part, I don't want to do things that I don't like (Proships and the likes). My only exception is vent art in which it will be properly tagged as such.

If people want to follow, I have an open arms policy. Everyone is welcome and I don't want harassment to go to anyone. Though, the exception to everyone is those in my DNI list. If there is legitimate concern about any content I make (such as a controversial piece of media) put a comment or message me.

I will give warnings (3) before blocking accounts. I'm not here to argue. I just wanna post silly art pieces that make me happy, and hopefully others happy.

DNI

A note for those who didn't look at my other intro: I am a 21 year old trans demiboy who has several alterhuman identities and LGBTQ+ labels. I have been diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Something not there to my memory is that my boyfriend (one of three partners) is a system. Hopefully this lets people understand my stances on certain things in my DNI.

Here is my list:

Pro/Comshippers

Harmful paraphilias

Transmeds, Terfs, Transphobes

Homophobes

Those who're against polyamory (not liking it or it not being your thing is different. Hate and prejudice isn't accepted though).

Apologists for those with harmful paraphilias, SA'er's, and the like

Racists

Ableists

Anti's (furries, Alterhuman/Nonhuman/Therian/Otherkin)

Syscourse

Radicals of any sort

Minors (this is for my comfortability since I am 21 and my vent art isn't going to be safe for work)

Extremist Christians (Most Christians in general actually, but if you're respectful, I will show the same courtesy back and you're welcome to stay)

Explicit NSFW/NSFT accounts (I do gore, not sexual content here)

Radqueers (Genuinely, I do not trust people like this)

If I find out an account is any of these, I will immediately block.

Art to Expect

Now, something lighter. I'm slowly getting into more fandoms as time goes on so this list is bound to change. Some are fandoms I'm getting into and others aren't fandoms at all. But Art is art, and I got a lot to expect
