Pen sketches I made (from memory) during downtime at the register and just when I had a moment outside of work in general.

Plus some pencils ones.

So for my deerniverse AU thing I specifically want to make like fantasy-esque outfits for Part 5 characters. I originally wanted full on nudity and to rely on fur patterning for differentiation but clothes design is a huge part of what makes JJBA unique and I can’t just take that away. Also fur patterning is not flexible like changing clothes. So I’m trying to go for like… half clothed? Like tribal inspired I guess, not too sure. Was thinking of doing chains for Mista’s top without actually giving him fabric for that diamond pattern he has on his sweater. No fabric or like a mostly transparent shear. His hat is more like a veil but that actually does have fabric tho. Included gems cause in the manga he has like circles in his diamond print thing. I don’t want to give him pants cause then you can’t see his legs are fully striped. Will figure out bottom half sometime. I have no idea what to for Fugo yet.

Father’s Day doodles.

I honestly don’t like how these came out, mostly the Brando one. I drew at such a small scale details were hard to do (for context each drawing is like a little bigger than the size of my thumb). I would like to redraw both someday at a larger scale.

I vent/rant a little bit below for anyone who cares to read.

Today was also my first father’s day since my dad has passed. I have been a little sad. Yesterday at work while I was closing the store they were playing a song he liked and I felt emotional but also happy because it brought back memories.

I’m feeling okay now in that aspect but I’m just… really mad with my work for making me close two weekends in a row and now last minute making me work the morning after when I wasn’t scheduled before. And also giving me Monday thru Friday next week. Like I push carts outside in nearly triple degree weather and will be in the 100s in a week or two. I push carts and do trash and the mosquitos like to hang out in the outside trash and bite me. I work by myself and my body is having a hard time keeping up because the heat drains me so fast and leaves me dazed. I need anther position soon or I’m going to work somewhere else even if they pay less. This is ridiculous and I hate it when people try to justify it’s okay to be overworked because I’m young and “my body will be fine”. My youth is valuable and not be cast away to do grunt work for some company that doesn’t care about me as an individual. I know that God provides for me and He provided that job to me and provides my income. I don’t need to work there, I need to trust God wherever He’s leading me, I just don’t know where I’m supposed to go right now. But I know that I should let go when He calls me to. Anyways. Yeah I’m doing okay I need to go to sleep now and work my tail off again tomorrow 🥲👍

I love poking fun at hartebeest Dio’s snout. Since I first made his anthro design, people have told me his snout is super long and I embrace it, lmaooo.

Not sure I like his dark chest fur though. Gonna change that when I get to actual ref sheet. Supposed to be representative of Jonathan’s body.

I finally drew hartebeest Dio in teal robe from the musical. I wanted to do this for like at least two months.

More art below ⬇️

I like to imagine he does like the flehmen lip thing to “read the air for breedability” because funny animal behavior.

He presents to you his baby.

In hindsight I think I made Dio too sexy 😭

Idk why I put clothes on the baby but didn’t give Dio pants I completely overlooked that. Anyways this is something I whipped up fast, I didn’t want to dwell on it for too long and honestly some of Dio’s pants are too detailed imo for a quick sketch.

Here’s the rough.

.

Anyways I want to draw more of Dio with Jr and would super appreciate any feedback or questions! I am ready to spew lore at any moment and I’m just waiting for my chance 😭

Bestower of my brainrot.

Made this during grief counseling. Eyes wonky. Might get colored. Also I realize like.. most of my posts are made when I should be asleep 💀

Anyways… to anyone who actually reads these and cares, I shall make an art and lore dump sometime of his baby :3

Well would you look at that, I actually colored something for once. I’m still unsure about his color design but I’ll polish it once I crank out that model sheet.

.

I didn’t do the background, I used an image from the anime or something and edited it.

Sibling Rivalry

I’ve been in the mood to draw some Phantom Blood characters since the musical came out.

And pssst… I may be able to stream it on Discord when the stream comes out. I’m not sure if I can stream it on Discord but I am going to try to. If you’re interested, DM me I’ll send a server link around the time it will be showing.

Giorno and Dio as babies/children. Honestly it’s really hard to make the distinction between a child and baby fur by face alone, especially in non hyper realistic art styles.

Anyways I think black hair Giorno bull cut whatever it’s called, looks really cute and stupid. But also I think the haircut makes much more sense for a child because low maintenance.

I literally keep forgetting to post here so here is a sketch dump of a character I’m very normal about.

These are all from the span of 2 months. Last one is from tonight. Apparently I can’t upload more than 10 pics but there’s more. My style for him is inconsistent 😭

As it appears I have the Dio-mania.

[lunar-cerulean]

Might draw him in more outfits cause of ArtFight incoming. I really appreciate the positive feedback I’ve been receiving on Dio’s anthro design over the months ^-^

I found this older sketch and I’m considering making it into a digital painting. So my question for y’all is

I’m having a hard time deciding cause when I originally made this it was going to be nude but I was making this at work while in a register so I went ahead and sketched clothes over (if people can even tell) so it would be less questionable. I like both options so I can’t decide.

Year of the Snake

I don’t really like how the perspective turned out on his chest and arms even though I feel like that’s what it would look like…? Anyways, months ago I gave Dio like snake bangles or something for his horns and they have returned for the lunar new year.

.

I might do a bit of color, we’ll see. I have another painting in the works so you’ll be seeing that as soon as I finish.

One timestop later…

Yeah it’s rough and I think the eyes look wonky on pretty much everyone but I hope you can still enjoy the humor of it.

Y’all have a blessed Christmas!
