Redraw and concept expansion of my Bug Fables Oc, Motley the Harlequin Beetle and her pet Isopod, Libra, that she can roll around like a balance ball. A pair of traveling entertainers. #bugfablesoc #bugfables #myart #oc

A harlequin beetle with clown face paint and antennae shaped like a jester's hat, rolling around on an Isopod with a star painted onto it, resembling a circus ball

Updated progress bar, halfway there. Going to be a bit before I continue because I don't know what i'm going to do for the fourth one, or how to draw my ideas for 5 and 6.

3/6 of silhouettes being filled, with Heavy Drone B-33 just being added

3/6 for the Bosses of "Bug Fables as a stereotypical fantasy RPG" The Heavy Golem (Adaptation of Heavy Drone B33) Expect a delay whilst I try to brainstorm a good idea for the next boss's design. Changes and Desc. in Alt Text #bugfablesau #bugfables #fanart #myart

A large mechanical construct, with a yellow, almost Golden, metallic body. There is a large crystal on it's back

Bestiary Entry: "An ancient construct made to defend the ruins of Blatarria, an ancient kingdom with the Forgotten Dunes. Powered by the magic crystals on it's back"

I made it an ancient golem since if there's technology in the RPGs I was referencing, it's almost always ancient in origin. I also did it since I had a good replacement for the Watcher in mind, as shown with the teaser I posted, but the desert was a more generic rpg setting than the Honey Factory, so I moved this boss to the Lost Sands equivalent. Also Blatarria is the Roach equivalent of this AU, with the name being an insect order of Roaches.

2/6 - "Almighty Venus"/Devouring Orchid (Adaptation of Venus + Devourer) The second main boss for my small art concept of "What if Bug Fables was a high fantasy rpg". Reasoning behind changes and description in Alt Text #bugfablesau #bugfables #fanart #myart

Description: "A rare carnivorous plant found within the Autumn Highlands, whenever it's fed, the surrounding flora and harvests grows vastly, causing it to have been worshipped for centuries. Though recently, it's Acolyte has started feeding it humans, which it has developed a taste for."

So the reason behind this change is that apparently the way Venus was written to make it seem like she was a Flytrap that devoured adventurers, basically being a misdirect to make her seem more malicious, so I just made her variant be that misdirect, since I feel like "evil religion" is a very common trope in RPGs.

Description of drawings: A large plant like creature with two large thorned tendrils, a flowering collar around it's gaping maw, all of these originating from a Pitcher Plant like body.

Bugtober Day 5: Experiment Zombider, based off of gibellula attenboroughii "An escaped Cordyceps from Snakemouth Lab, having found a new vessel in the Spider that once terrorized the nearby cave. In order to properly possess it, the fungus spread across most of it's body." #bugtober #bugtober2026

Thought it'd be fun to make a teaser for the remaining "Main" bosses I plan to do for "Rpg Fables" (nickname for this small project) Thought it'd be fun the hype up who I'll do next, you may even notice some deviations from the source material. #bugfablesau

A teaser at who'll be next for me to design in the new style.

Had a random idea of doing "Bug Fables as a typical fantasy rpg" to experiment with my art-style a bit. Struggled with human designs so I decided to just do the bosses first. 1/6 The Bane of Wyrm's Maw. (Based on Spider) #bugfablesau #fanart #myart #illustration

A large spider like creature with red markings, bladed pincers and fangs, and a gaping maw.

To address some posts disappearing, I got rid of any post with a hashtag I made for the project I was slowly working on, since my brain was anxious and making me feel like I was making the project seem bigger than it was actually developed, I just wanted to ease up my mind a bit.

Final two designs of my Ocs. Reposting since previous art was about a project that I revealed too early and i'm debating on deleting the info I posted about it. Green Mage is Rune, Purple Knight is Brand. #ocsky #illustration #myart #characterdesign

A mage who floats around, their white and green robe hides their legs, and their long sleeves hide their hands. They have a pure green hood and his satchel wraps around his waist.

A tall, fully armored knight, they have silver colored armor, with darker sections for torso and shoulder pads, as well as darker (probably chainmail) area on their arms, legs, and neck. She wears a flowing purple scarf

Was looking around and found some old "fakemon-esque" designs with a concept I was proud of, primarily the Evo at least. It's a Gargoyle fountain that swims in a pool of water it produces like a sea serpent. I'm posting it because the concept is cool and I want to redesign it eventually. #fakemon

Was proud of the Lightning Centipede I drew for Bugtober (bug fables one) so I redrew it in a not "bug fables Sprite" style of art. Definitely over-designed it, but I like the end result. #myart #creaturedesign #enemydesign

#Bugtober 2026: Days 1 and 2 - Autumn/Storm Two cozy pieces to start out this year’s Bugtober! #bugfables #bugfablesfanart #bugfablesoc #art

A digital artwork of Apollyon, an anthro death’s-head hawkmoth, looking tranquil as they hold onto a cup of coffee with both hands. The artwork is warmly lit, and the background is an abstract autumn scene that has a white vignette at the top corners of the image.

A digital artwork of Kabbu, an anthro green scarab beetle from Bug Fables, holding an umbrella as it rains. The foreground is framed with blades of grass and two flowers growing on the ground. Kabbu is in the midground, protected from the rain by the leaf he’s using as an umbrella. He has a happy expression as he looks up to look at the rain.
The background is slightly hazy and is made up of much taller blades of grass curling up into a stormy grey sky.

Quick doodle of an idea that popped into my head. Metal Lake is the only area in Bug Fables without a Seedling, so i drew one. The Floatling, based off of Liferings, Marimo, and Bladder Kelp, they float on the water thanks to ring of algae around it's neck #bugfables #enemydesign #bugfablesfanart

Bugtober Prompt 2: Storm I struggled way too much on this one, so instead of what I did yesterday, I did something more familiar to me. I made an lightning centipede based off the Geophilus Electricus. Way smaller and less dangerous then the centipede seen in the actual game. #bugtober #bugfablesoc

A centipede like creature, with pylon-like horns, glowing eyes and tail, and a light blue underbelly with earthen colored shells.

Wanted to experiment with monster designs, without revealing too much info about Lackeys in case it becomes a real thing, so I made some for an enviroment I don't currently plan to do in the project, the desert. Two enemies and a boss, descriptions are in alttext. #enemydesign #myart #illustration

Kheproll - Scarab-like monsters, generate fireballs from their horn-like mandibles to roll across the dunes.

Based off of Khepri, an Egyptian sun deity, and Dung Beetles

Cactile - Cactus-like reptiles that absorb rain water onto their backs to store into watery projectiles that emanate from their eyes.

Based off of cacti having water in them, Thorny Devils drinking water from their backs, and Horned Lizards shooting blood from their eyes

Sandwyrm (Boss) - Terryfying insectoid monster that ravages the dunes, often lying in wait underneath the dunes before flying upwards to snatch prey

Based off of adult and larval antlions, and Sandworms

Enemy design i made for Lackeys if it ends up being a game, main reason I'm posting this is just because i'm proud of this thing's name. It's called a Flutter-Eye, but it has an in-universe scientific name of Cycloptera Communis (Communis being there for if I make variants of it) #myart #enemydesign

A butterfly-like monster with wings shaped like eyes.

Wisp, a bright yellow flame like spirit. Speaks archaically. A great person, though can often be misguided in her attempts to help others
