Sketchdump time.
A grey orc, a loxodon, and my oldest fursona rocking my signature duds (graphic tee, longseelve buttonup, oversized army jacket with the sleeves cut off, ratty black jeans, and hiking/dad sandals)
I wanted to bring pig-nosed orcs back, and wanted the loxodon to fit in more with the rest of the world instead of being just... anthro elephant.
I have some more lore on them both and how they're both related to gnoll, but that is a ramble for my k0-f!
Apparently it is customary in some circles to post your art on your birthday.
So here are some of my recent arts I'm most happy with. :)
Congrats to Jaesteriax for being my top post, and many thanks to @opportunity-strikes and their partner for the chance to make this lovely boy and for sharing him often! 1. 441 notes - Jan 13 2023
A good year for dragons, because coming in second most shared is Spyro, another special request commission!
A monster dice bag! This one is another special request, but I’m still taking requests and have a couple already made if you wanna take a looksy
Something new I was trying - posting some concept sketches. Might do more this year!
Carousel bunny! Hoping to make more carousels this year!
Even more concept sketches, wasn’t expecting multiple concept sketch pages to make it into my top ten. Maybe I really should post some more since you guys really seem to like them.
A poll! A poll that has me incredibly confused because everyone I know uses the term “pushpaw”? Except for my stepsister who says pittipaw.
What is it called when a kitty pushes its paws against you (if you use more than one, choose the one you default...
UNCLE. I was really happy with how the colors on this turned out. I was in the ZONE. This is the first actual color drawing I’ve done of Uncle, and also the first time I’ve drawn his face - I’m still planning on drawing his mask to make a second version of this painting.
More dragon! Surprised that the lineart of this one was more popular than the shading and full color versions - but I think I may have put them on my side art blog so they’re technically not in the running for THIS top post collection
PULLING THROUGH FOR THE FINAL SLOT IS WEASEL STUDY. Another surprise contender in the top posts.I guess you guys like it when I put a bunch of little guys on a page.

Throwback thursday time! This isn't a true redraw, I just digitally edited the original pencil drawing and did a full recolor. I kinda wish I'd done a full redraw but I think it still turned out pretty good. Sidenote, I'm considering opening slots for character tokens, if anyone's interested...
Next up on throwbackthursday is Tohin and his* daughter Anu!
I used to make a lot of rough little colorless sketchy arts like this.
Tohin is/was a shapeshifting genderfluid god of love (romantic, platonic, familial, etc. all loves) but unfortunately was killed by murderhobos looking to pawn off fey parts on the magical black market.
Throwback Thursday time!
(decided to do throwback thursday on this blog and keep my art blog for fresh art)
It's Glass! The gnoll paladin.
Little swipe away of my art process. From pencil line art, to pencil shading, to digital color.
Throwback Thursday! Did you know Asim's name wasn't always Asim? He started out with the name "Azverith" but as I developed dairau culture I changed it to "Asim" which is a common-ization of his real name "Aziyam", which is the color of the sky. (It's often translated as "blue" but it can mean any color the sky can be).
Throwback thursday! With a little dash of art progress comparison
As most of you have probably heard, redbubble is pulling some nonsense and trying to squeeze as much out of their artists as possible...
Well. On a brighter note, I recently got my hands on an art printer and was literally running test prints when I heard about redbubble’s new policy’s.
In light of the whole ordeal I’ve decided to release my test prints into the wild! They turned out really well and I’m really happy with them. I hope you are too <3 Help support independent artists like me escape the corporate death grip of print on demand services! More info in source link
The blizzard wizard lizard, Xarseth! For @artgubbin! Character done in .2 mechanical pencil, background digitally created. [Comms Open]
I found some old sketchbooks and well... I feel the need to start up throwback thursday to show you all the ancient secret blorbos in here.
This is Quillix, a wannabe vigilante magical girl and all around hellion tiefling child. Really want to do a redraw of her.
Akiro! For @enkairo-designs
Traditional pencil rendering using .2 mechanical pencil. [Comms Open, check bio for link.]
A bit of pencil lineart as a treat. Done with a .2 mechanical pencil.
Did a lil something special with Jiba. A limited sunset color palette with a pop of green. Because I could. And because he’s a sunset/green flash themed air genasi.
His real fur/skintone is more of a green/teal. Because that is my favorite color and legend of zelda said I was allowed to use green for the air element.
