The wolves care not for heart; but with ferocity And pride, I’ve remained.

Preparing for Art Fight 2024 by making references for two of my robot bois, Cannonball and Ferocity (formerly Fireball)

I'm starting to get some ideas of what directions I want to take these two in the future

Face Ragnarök Like Óðinn

At times like these I take inspiration from Óðinn at Ragnarök:Look it in the eye, face it directly, resist it with all you have and do whatever you are able.Ves þú heil.

Ooooo I would love to see what you've been drawing

Okay! (Sorry it took a while to respond, I needed my mom's phone to take pictures)

(The lighting kinda sucks but oh well)

Mostly what I did while I was gone was redraw old characters I created when I was little, like around 4th - 6th grade.

All of them are from various things, like all the dragons were from a set of dragon identification cards I made, kind of similar to HTTYD. Brief descriptions of all characters under the cut:

The dragon species I drew were the Acidstrike, Blitzfire, Cavernous Rockslider, and Golden Beetle. Blitzfire was originally called Spinfire, Cavernous was Shaded, and Beetle was Wings. I did my best to reinvent them and make the dragons look like they could be actual creatures with proper anatomy.

Zenith (the purple cat creature) was from the same universe as the dragons, but they were a race of colorful magical cats. I used to call the species "Furries" with an -ie because I was too lazy to come up with a unique name.

Rex (the red fox) was from a world of various magical animals, mostly foxes and seals. He was the leader of some kind of evil organization. All the members were red and had skull iconography.

Rogue (calico kitten) was actually made as a one-off Black Butler OC for a friend's Gacha Life comic, and was Sapph's daughter (this was back when Sapph wasn't my sona and just an OC). From there I added her to Sapph's story officially, before making Rogue and a few other kitten characters into a group called "The Naughty Kittens." Despite the unoriginal name, they were pretty fun to draw. Maybe I'll remake it some day.

Willow (black and white cat with neon) I don't entirely remember the story for. She was one of a bunch of fusion animal OCs, and I ended up repurposing design elements for a completely different character, before scrapping it altogether.

And lastly, the fox girl. I don't remember her name. It's probably in one of the other sketchbooks, I'm pretty sure it was something like 'Alex?' She was designed by an old friend of mine back in 5th grade. We grew apart over the years and lost touch, only occasionally hearing of them from mutual friends. Sadly, they passed away last year, supposedly from an overdose. They were a very talented artist, and I dedicate this final redraw to them.

I had a lot of fun with these drawings, and getting better at practicing shading and color balancing on paper. I definitely want to more of these in the future!

(Oh and if you want to see the originals for reference, let me know)

Artemis, the heaven's candle, Elegance that puts us in a baffle Yet a bestial ferocity of wilderness, We dance in your soft brightness And learn how to dominate So that we do not stagnate.

. . . but I had forgotten, or probably had never felt before, the ferocity of his feeling—his fury, grief, and bloodlust.

"If I cannot have tenderness I will match the viciousness of the world. I will break the silence that suffocates me. I will bite the hand that refuses to feed me. Who has the ferocity to love a vicious flame of a girl like this?"

The TRUE Story of Caco's Cave: BLOD and Soot

This video tells the story of Caco, son of Vulcan, lord of fire and forge. Caco lives in a dark cave on Aventine, where the floor is stained with blood and the walls blackened with soot. His incandescent breath turns to ashes anyone who dares to come close. Cunning and fierce, he uses his intelligence to confuse and deceive his enemies. Caco is the embodiment of chaos and destruction, a legend both feared and respected.

The Sky is Pregnant

As I sit by my window, gazing out at the vast expanse above, I can’t help but feel a certain anticipation in the air. The clouds, thick and heavy, hang low, casting a somber shadow over the landscape. There’s a palpable sense of expectancy, a quiet yet powerful tension that seems to whisper, “The sky is pregnant.” The sky, laden with moisture and energy, holds within it the promise of…
