"You good?"

"Just hanging out."

Today's quick sketch is me trying my hand at drawing Scavs!

And ofc I had to give him a friend so, have a Marbles, an OC belonging to @ask-the-pioneer . Can't lie, Marbles is great.

Aaand more Marbles bc in the time it took me to have service I got bored

[ask-the-pioneer]

Do you need a hug?

"WELL... this is my life now" Marbles thinks to herself, laying perfectly still as to not wake the napping savpups up.

An Exchange

Pioneer is showing Rook her system of notating slugcat scents by their scent proteins and other chemical compounds, while Rook is showing off a system of writing developed by slugcats from the far north, who were apparently tutored under a late iterator (one who was quite legendary….)

Artfight revenge on @kalivasquezart!! This gets to do double duty as fanart and thanks for that honestly amazing attack you did with Rook.

Pioneer's writing, I just pulled directly from the askblog from this post here. Kali made it using logographs from @ikayblythe's Standard Hegemonic Dialect!

Rook's writing is an ongoing project of mine trying to adapt the symbols of Rain World to a working conlang I'm developing for the colony slugcats in my setting. Each block represents a syllable, and most characters represent consonants, each of which natively have an 'a' attached. A line above changes that 'a' to an 'i' while a line below changes it to an 'o'. Stacks of two characters represent a consonant-vowel-consonant syllable block, with the vowel decided by the top character. Sometimes the Monk symbol (circle) is used to represent the absence of a consonant (such as the third block). A syllable block encompassed within another character (such as the second syllable block) represents a long vowel.

Rook's writing reads "pajmūy ag sayong da". Grammer and lexicon are still very heavily in development, but 'pajmūy' means "One who is often convinced".

@kalivasquez revenge!!

Hello! I read that you are taking art requests. Would you mind drawing my slugcat OC, the Pioneer? (no pressure, of course)

Thanks! (ˊᵕˋ)

Sorry, wanted to experiment a bit with the new brushes <:]

[foxok-stuff]

Hello there! I read that RW-related requests are open, and so I'd like to ask - would you mind drawing my scug OC, the Pioneer? (no pressure)

I've seen your art before, I like the way you draw upward standing scugs. There's something very endearing about them!

[sialu-the-arts-cat]

the artfight attack I ended up not for @kalivasquezart sending bc I was very unhappy with my background painting abilities (and bc it was last week and my personal policy is leaving the last week exclusively for revenges)

they're probably fighting a vulture

also side to side comparison with artificer

AF attack: The Pioneer

Here's an attack on KaliVasquez's The Pioneer- I really dig the @ask-the-pioneer blog, so I was pleased to find Marbles on artfight!

I was feeling a 1930s travel poster kinda vibe for this one, based on Fred Taylor (who I've heard was a reference point for the HADES backgrounds artstyle).

Here I was telling myself to only do headshots and busts in order to draw more characters, but this was a surprisingly fast turnaround for me! And, it just felt like it fit her in particular- slugcats do be travelling.

A small chat with a kind stranger

Art attack (Rain World Art Arena) on uraniumglass (on AF/ToyHouse) featuring their slugcat OC - Scriptures Under Solitude (on the right), and my scug the Pioneer (aka Marbles, on the left).

[thunder-opossum]

Suppose its time I draw these two together, Sizzle and Marbles! (Green is my au of Artificer's lost slups Blue slugpup is from the @ask-the-pioneer au)

I drew them as slugpups roughhousing in the mud like true siblings when they both get distracted by a shiny pearl (hehe symbolism of their lives being drastically changed from a pearl)

I softened and simplified their markings to make them look more like babies, so pure, no clue of what's going to happen to them eventually.

I had many ideas but I settled on this one bc it could probably take place between the two of them, and it was just something sweet :]

[ballisticfunk]

attack for @ask-the-pioneer of Pioneer!! i absolutely adore the story you've made, i just had to draw her. i hope you enjoy!!!
