Heads up for anyone wondering where I've disappeared to - I'm going to be MIA for a while because I'm now deep in the dragon age trenches
Eventually I will emerge with new art promise
I promise I'm still alive! Just avoiding socials until I finish veilguard - I'm so close you guys I'll be back soon

Guess who got covid and was too sick for OCtober community week! (it was me)
Playing catch up even though I am still Sick As Fuck - so here is some gift art for my irl friends Adore for @/zerythian over on twitter Rook for @zerofinch Eli and Rune for @no-chair Shannon for @arcticfox98 and Shane (in very fashionable clothes) for @luraharenose
Day 18 - Swap
(two days late but we got there eventually)
Viamo again today - his party often jokes about him being the only non-furry in the party, so I opted for a species swap. An Oriental Longhair inspired Tabaxi felt like an obvious choice
OCtober Day 14 - Who/What inspired your OCs I don't really ever deliberately base my OCs on existing characters, but I definitely do so subconsciously - at this point rereading a book I loved as a kid, or re-watching a show I was obsessed with years ago, will always inevitably lead to me going 'wait a fucking second. is my OC just (previous blorbo)???' at some point - tbh its extremely funny every time, I wouldn't change a thing
took this as an excuse to draw my two favourite ocs interacting with the characters I think most influenced their personalities - Gabriel and Rincewind (Discworld) are probably bitching about whatever quest the universe has bullied them into against their will, and Viamo, Regis (The Witcher), and Giles (Buffy) are probably all extremely confused as to why none of their vampire knowledge seems to line up, despite the fact they all claim to be experts on the subject.
in honour of oc-tober meme day, I am posting these goofs I drew for my friend @zerofinch based on our co-op bg3 playthrough, featuring my dark urge Gabriel and their tav Joy
OCtober DAY 13 - Memes ok if im honest, 85% of the art I draw is memes about my ocs - I don't want to clog up my blog too much so I'm putting them under the cut for anyone interested in getting to know my boys better through the context of bad jokes
OCtober Day 12 - Future
Perfect excuse to draw my modern au designs for my two favourite boys - Viamo and Gabriel.
Modern au Gabriel works as an uber driver, sleeps on his brother's couch every night, and has been wearing the same dysphoria flannel since he was 14
Viamo is a med-school drop out and failed seminary student who currently works as a mortician, however he's hoping to save up enough money to eventually purchase and run a bookshop.
OCtober Day 6 and Day 9 - Past and Relationships
I'm a little behind because life happened, so I decided to combine these two prompts into one artwork
I suck at drawing kids, but here's Gabriel and his older half-brother Ferdinand (before they got old, alcoholic, and toxically codependent.)
Casual reminder that the Palestine Children's Relief Fund has a 97% on Charity Navigator and you should donate to it if u can. Despite the limited external aid that's been allowed into Gaza, they've been able to distribute a lot of aid internally. And they are providing needed aid to Lebanon.
OCtober Day 5 - Redesigned OC Silas was originally a draconic sorcerer NPC from another OC's backstory, however after I played as him in bg3 he underwent extensive cowboy redesigns - I found a goofy looking hat and realized he would build his entire personality around it, hence his current look
original design and concept development for his new design under the cut!
OCtober Day 4 - Underrated OC
It just had to be art of Est for today - I neglect him so much and he deserves better. Est is my d&d character Otho's adoptive father, and a professor of history and linguistics. He likes scotch, 'horseless carriages', and jazz.
His favourite hobby is arguing with his 462 year old elven husband, who he loves dearly, despite his opinions on the categorisation of ancient dwarven pottery
Brain too empty to do words so just gonna try vibes. you draw very pretty and fun and lovely and I like it a lot its very soft but not soft, good colours and lines and reminds me of lineless but also not (I assume bc you have your outline lines similiar colour to drawing) its very pleasant and shaped and good and yes, yes? yes, y'know? anyway good art, imagine me patting your face like a cat does, just soft, maybe slightly damp in a concerning way and weirdly good at stepping *right* on your kidney.... right anyways, you draw Kremy very very good, I love how you draw Kremy, satifying 10/10 good draw love lots xoxo
this might be the strangest and best compliment I've ever received about my art - thank you anon lmao
OCtober Day 3 - Old OC
Funny story behind this one - this is Luka the Evil Wizard, the main antagonist of a book I wrote when I was *seven years old*
He was probably my first ever case of OC brain rot, and also my first childhood crush. I recently found and re-read the book in question, and I'm mortified to say it's true what they say about first love - it never dies. That entire book might have been a glitter induced fever dream about talking rainbow coloured animals with magic powers, but the chapters focused on Luka? Seven year old me was COOKING -----
not me only just realizing I have months worth of OUAW sketches in my backlog that I haven't posted-----
OCtober Day 2 - New OC
Azazel, my aarakocra pirate, is my newest OC - decided to finally design him some clothes for OCtober this year since I'd been putting it off
