Merry Christmas, everyone!

As the poll I put out commands, I did an image with Titania! I decided to do a second one as well, honestly because the idea seemed fun and I'd never really decided the colors of Titania's Daughter and despite me basically rushing to do it, I'm honestly really proud of how it turned out!


Then there was the lewd image. I tried out some new stuff for it. Was funny I held off on d...

Landri Sitting against the glass

I forgot how to shade for a hot minute, so I did this to get back in the  swing of things and I think it worked out pretty well. Also. Who  doesn't love more Landri art?

Did I need to do some weird dutch angle shit? If you have to ask you don't know me very well do you?

More Gacha Pulls

I decided to do more of these for friends of mine. Honestly thinking about doing these... they can be a lot. Especially one after the other they can be a little rough, but, they also are really fun and require me to pull a whole bunch of tools from my repertoire. 

I hope you all appreciate the art. As for the characters.

Rikyuu, of course, belongs to your fellow patron, well. <...

Landri Gacha Pull

So. A lot of friends of mine like Gacha games. This isn't much of a secret, but it is interesting. While I don't enjoy them myself due to time constraints and other factors I find the graphic design and art interesting! So I decided to do a bit where I drew a character of mine like they came out of one of those! I think it came out really well... and I have a few more of these in the works.

My State of Affairs, 2023

I'm not dying or anything, I just don't exactly know what to call this. So. I've pre-written this whole thing for all of you and you can read it if you want, but, should you not wanna deal with me being excessive. I've made a TL;DR.

Escura and the Furry Maker

A friend asked if I could do a 'furry version' of their character, and so I obliged and just did a one-off sheet. It turned out really well, and they loved it... as did all of their friends. So much so it was makin' some of them even as complete non-furries start to act up.

Bly Lasorel, Bimbo Variation

This was a long time coming. So, long ago I drew a bimbo version of a friends character with Landri. As the years went by and things changed, Landri did as well. With her new Non-pokemon design... and that friend having wanted a proper ref for it... they asked me to do an honest to god bimbo ref of their character in the sam...

This was a commission by my good friend Plum. Thank you once again for commissioning me once again!~ This was a pretty fun one, but it certainly took me way longer then I thought it would. Woof.

National Ass day 2022

So. Uh. It's been a few months since I posted. I've been dealing with work and some other things that have been keeping me real busy. I've been doing art even still I just haven't really gotten the chance to post very much. Which I am very sorry about and shall seek to correct.

Helena takes to the Pommel

As the Leader of the Cinccino Island Military Junta, Helena tends to get stressed sometimes. Doubly so considering her usual failures with the opposite gender and more.... and whenever she finds it all a little to much she goes to the gym and does a bit of a routine on a Pommel

Digital Release Limited: Lekismon

"Make sure you buy now, they're limited time only and you don't want to be left out of the cold when you could be filling a Champion."

Anyway yeah here's that Lekismon OC I don't talk about or draw very much, he's got a cool look and lore going on that no one has ever asked about. I'm real proud of how quickly I got this done.


Technically, this was one of the images that ...

Woolite and the Planetary Beads

I, to be honest, do not have a lot to say about this. This is like, the first actual macro pic I've ever done. Though I think at these sizes that isn't the proper way to explain or talk about it, then again I'm not part of that community so I don't know anything. I would think it's called 'Hyper Macro' but then again that would mean that there are actual defined things here and again. I know no...

Moxxy Luran Reference Sheet

OKAY. SO this is a ref sheet I did for my good friend Omicron of his character Moxxy whose changed quite a bit over the years, I, jokingly, did a design that combined all the little changes here and there into one big 'For all' kind of design. Turns out he loved it and a year later, I finished it basically in one go after I ...

Landri V2, and other Musings

Yes, I've gone and made another character of mine a non-pokemon. Much like with Yasmin there was little changes to the 'design' itself from her last version. As it turns out with many of my characters there isn't a whole lot that ties them down to being a pokemon other then the basic design being super good. For Yasmin that was very clearly the case, however, Landri here already had View Post

Flaaffy with a Familiar Toy

This took so long for me to accomplish... but I'm happy to have finally gotten it done and out there. Not specifically because it has any catharsis or pontificates on any thoughts I may or may not have, but... maybe because it's been a while since I've completed and posted something for real and I wanted to do that. Ya'know. Make sure I can still do it. The last two pictures were so high qualit...

'Yasmin on Snapchat' Redraw

So, when I was going through and redesigning my characters, I decided that it might be a pretty cool thing to do if I take an old image of them from long ago and re-do it using my current skills and their new design. I figured it'd be a simple challenge and in some ways it was, in others it was actually somewhat daunting. What do I show and what do I keep. Do I expand on X or expand on Y?....&n...

"Commander, Please. No."

Helena Cinnamon, pictued above, is a very binary person sometimes. In that she often takes things to their extremes when nervous or unsure of what to do. Like actually getting a man who isn't weirded out by her resting bitch face or the fact she's a high ranking military offical and gets into a bedroom with her.

She just kind of... falls back on her 'training' that she got from all those ...

November Patreon Rewards

These were the last ones, and I did my best to really knock 'em out of the park... Time was probably the hardest for me on these, I had a lot I needed to do with limited time and in a lot of ways I felt boxed in, the ever encroaching lack of time as I worked every night to get these done was.... something else. It was exciting, but I can't help but feel bad sometimes... feeling like despit...

I like how a lot of the art from this month turned out.

Holy shit am I late in posting stuff. I really got caught up in what I was doing, it wasn't pretty at all.
