A treat for you 😌 please eat this terrible man and use the energy for your S2 endeavours.

A digital comic panel featuring Oliver Graham, the antagonist of The Magical Freelancer’s Guild webcomic. He's a middle-aged white man with greying light brown hair and pale blue eyes. He's wearing a black suit with an orange tie. Both his posture and expression are shocked/scandalized and there's a giant GASP followed by him asking "What happened to your face!?"

Yea someone broke this guy's nose in like three places, I wonder what happened 😛

Cropped digital illustration of a young man with blond hair, thick eyebrows and a pointy nose, wearing a blue coat with a red tie. He's grinning and tipping a straw boater hat at someone.

I might like giving my OCs scars a bit too much. Wilfrid has whatever is going on with his nose. Monty has his back scars and Caspian has burn scars and is missing some fingertips. As well as other assorted lasting injuries, Zendaya’s eyepatch, etc etc

A digital cartoon drawing of a white man with blond hair and green eyes. His thick eyebrows and full beard are both a darker colour. He's wearing a blue frock coat and double-breasted red vest, with a green tie.

He has a mole under his right eye and several small scars on his immensely crooked nose.

A digital illustration. Monty, from The Magical Freelancer's Guild comic, a trans man with medium-brown skin, is shown twice-- on the right, he has his long wavy hair in a ponytail, wearing a green vest, brown sack coat, matching trousers and a red tie. He's smiling wide and gesturing dramatically. On the left is a slightly younger version of him, mostly facing away. His hair is shorter and looks damp, and he's shirtless, but wearing fishtail back trousers . On his back are several cuts and a mix of fresh and dried blood. There's some blood on his face too, coming from his forehead, and his expression is uncharacteristically grim. He's holding a shiny pair of scissors, and there's a little flash of blue coming from his eye. The two are both surrounded by floating embers.

Digital drawing of a young man with long red hair. He's sitting on the floor, one arm resting on his knee. He's entirely nude, except for a blue cloth draped over his waist. From the left side of his chest, down to his left hand, is a burn scar.

This loser is physically incapable of revealing his true feelings even to himself lmao

A digital comic panel. Monty Birch, a young man with long wavy hair in a ponytail tied with a green ribbon, is fidgeting with the knot of a sling around his neck. He's shirtless, and his shoulders and neck are covered in bruises. He has a more serious expression than he normally does.

Artists! Quote with a smoking character! Have to go with these two 😌 0/10 would not recommend having either of them as a role model #webcomic #ocSky

Oliver and Eva also have a son! Still deciding on his design specifically/fixing the art, and he doesn't have a name yet 🤔. Oliver Jr has been suggested, and nothing gets the new money smell out like naming your kid after yourself, right?

Digital cartoon drawing of a young boy with light skin, short brown hair, and brown eyes. He's wearing a blue Norfolk jacket with an attached white collar, posing with his thumb tucked into one of the pockets.

It has arrived \o/ @brandtandstein.com Feels almost strange to read the first ten pages again in graphic novel form!

A photo of the cover to Worst Man. A handsome, skinny white guy with red hair, wearing a red suit, black shirt and orange tie is front and centre, toasting the camera. He's clearly been caught by a burly guy with olive skin and black curly hair, who's wearing a purple suit jacket, white shirt and purple tie. The burly guy is sat in a gigantic wedding cake, with the implication being he fell backwards into it catching the skinny guy. As a result the cake is collapsing around them, but the skinny guy's foot is holding up the cake topper, which is cartoony representations of a bride and groom.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Oliver and Eva's daughter, Fiona. She's technically existed since before I designed either parent, just as some notes about her potential role in the plot 🤔.

A digital cartoon drawing of a teenage girl with light brown hair and pale blue eyes. Her hair is in a long wavy ponytail tied with a red ribbon that matches the one around the collar of her dark blue sailor suit. She's holding her arm gently with her opposite hand and looking blankly up and off to the side.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

As much fun as I had drawing Oliver Graham as a weird little trash man, I have also been pondering his family for the main comic 📝🐦 because yes, somehow this man ends up married, with two kids. Here's designs for him and his wife, Eva. What do you think she's like 👀

Digital cartoon drawing of Oliver Graham, a middle-aged white man with greying light brown hair and pale blue eyes. He's wearing a black frock coat with matching vest and trousers with a white high collared shirt and red tie. His pocket watch chain is also visible.

A digital cartoon drawing of Eva Graham, a woman with light skin, dark brown hair and dark red-brown eyes. She's wearing a lacy white blouse with puffed sleeves and a blue skirt. She has a sort of smirk, as if she knows a secret and really wants to taunt you about it.

When you get the gooood headscritches 🥴

A digital comic panel WIP. A young man with floppy hair, and a pointy nose looks like he's getting his hair ruffled and it's the most amazing sensation ever, judging from his expression.

1152

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Maybe the problem with writing this version of this character, the crusty blue collar frat boy, is that I'm used to the one who spent 10+ years learning how to act like a gentleman so he could get the new money smell off of him. This version has no money. He's just horny and broke 😔.

A digital comic panel. A man with short hair and stubble, wearing a tank top that's slightly more wrinkled than usual. The camera angle is low and he's looking down and off to the side, with a smug, breathless smile.

Ha ha! I have an extensive answer for this! Sort of. From 2024.

A digital drawing of two OCs wearing fashionable clothes inspired by bird plumage.

One woman has long, blonde hair and is wearing an off-white blouse, white jeans and a brown jacket. The other character is a tall, dark-skinned woman with hair that goes from dark to lighter blue. She wears a yellow jumpsuit and a long, blue-green jacket.

The birds, a Barn Owl and an Inca Jay, and their respective outfits, are pictured in the middle of the image.

Oliver Graham the high school drop out, bisexual boyfailure, gettin real excited to go to sparkly murder prom

A digital comic panel of a man with short hair wearing a tank top. He's smiling excitedly into the camera, one arm raised to brush his hair back. There are sparkly dust particles in the air around him.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Uhoh he's back on his bullshit and so am I Gonna have fun tidying this panel up tomorrow 😌🧡 this mini smut comic is nearly done!

A rough digital sketch of a man with short hair wearing a tank top. He's smiling excitedly into the camera, one arm raised to brush his hair back. The sketch is greyscale, save for some red across his cheeks and ears.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

After previously complaining that he kept looking like a serial killer, I tried to do it on purpose and I think I missed. Will try again later!

A digital comic panel. Oliver Graham, the villain from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic but it's the 1990s instead, leaning over and looking down at someone or something. He's a 30-something man with short floppy hair and stubble, wearing a tank top. His hair is falling down over his eyes. This time his expression looks serious, almost sad?

2132

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Tonight's lil preview Gonna start trying to include more sound effects in my comics where I feel they'll work, instead of avoiding them almost entirely. Chomp ☺️

A comic sound effect written in white outlined in black: CHOMP, but the c, o and p have jagged little spikes coming out of them for emphasis.

Couldn't quite decide which hand to go with, so I just did all four! More deltoid squishes 😌

Four digital comic panels. Each features a hand gripping someone's deltoid with varying degrees of intensity.

YOU!🫵 If you see this, post breasts! Okay I guessss I'll bring out this one of Lana again for now 😌 I should draw more boobs soon, too. Yea.

Lana, a young, curvy woman with long blonde hair, is sitting precariously on the edge of a dock by some moonlit water. She's entirely nude, with both arms brushing her hair over her shoulders. She's looking offscreen at an approaching orange light, with a smile of barely contained excitement.

"This version of him is less awful because he was never a cop--" Ah, fuck. 🤔

A rough red digital sketch of a man dressed in a 1990s short sleeved police uniform. He's posing with his arms up, both hands brushing back his hair while he makes what he probably thinks is a really seductive face.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Oop, made him worse. Anyways, I like drawing blood spatter and I don't do it nearly as often as I would like 😤 that should change soon.

Hey Graham can you try looking a little less like a serial killer in these panels? I know this might just have to be an erotic horror au but come on

The tongue click of sexual frustration

A digital comic panel. A young man with floppy blond hair, a pointy nose, thick eyebrows and some wimpy whiskers on his chin. He's grimacing while blushing and making a "tch" sound.

Apparently it's yaoi day 😌 Happy birthday to every yaoi ever. Here, have the two pairings that are taking up the largest parts of my brain at this moment. What is the opposite of relationship goals because that's both of them. #ocSky #toxicYaoi

A digital comic panel. Wilfrid, a man with chin-length hair, a pointy nose and an oversized sweater lies on his back on the floor. Another man, Oliver, wearing a tank top and tattered jeans with a plaid shirt tied around his waist is straddling him. Oliver is pinning one of Wil's hands to the floor, holding his face with the other. His hand obscures what exactly he's doing to Wil's mouth, but idk, you can guess or use your imagination ;). Wil looks up at Oliver, wide-eyed and blushing.

A digital illustration made to look like an old sepia-toned photograph. Two men sit at a table, one with long hair up in a messy bun, wearing a robe-like uniform that has become dishevelled to the point of exposing his chest, and one with short hair, a vest, and rolled up shirt sleeves. The short-haired man is fidgeting with his empty tea cup and staring adoringly at the other, who is listlessly frowning down at the pile of books and study materials on the table in front of him. His teacup remains entirely untouched.

The more pathetic and sympathetic I make this version of him, the worse the other one gets.

A digital comic panel. A close-up on the face of 1990s au Oliver Graham from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic. His hair is flopping all around his blushing, sleepy face. He's lying on the ground, looking up and over his shoulder. He looks drunk and pouty.

Birdee Blake @birdeeblake.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Stupid drunk boyfriend 😒 Here have your latest dose of 1990s au toxic villain yaoi

A cropped digital illustration of Monty Birch, lying down with one hand brushing back his shorter than usual hair. He's probably doing something lewd off screen, judging by his facial expression.

A digital illustration of two boys in fancy Victorian evening wear, sitting by a fountain in a garden lit with glowy orange lights. One boy is wearing blue to match his hair, and has cat ears and a tail. The other boy is wearing red/orange to match his fluffy fox tail and ears. He also looks like he's pouting ):.

Since you need an ArtFight account to see these otherwise, I figured I'd post the new refs I put together this year for my various dads 😌. Okay, my head is trying to kill me so I'm gonna lie down more now.

Character reference sheet for Korneli Kovalenko, a character from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic (sort of.) He's a stocky middle-aged man with light brown skin, brown hair and heavy eyebrows. One image shows his clown costume, featuring a purple and yellow coat with a diamond pattern, plaid pants and clown makeup. He has a giant novelty hammer. He's also shown in his more casual outfit, wearing a dark red vest, dark brown pants and sleeve garters. Bonus image of him wearing a brown chore coat and a flat cap.

Text on the image reads:

Korneli Kovalenko
Age: 40s? Height: 5'6"

- This is specifically Korneli as he appeared when he was appoximately 40 years old. If he were to show up in the comic's current timeline, he'd be in his 60's
- Used to be a soldier in his 20's, but won't give any further details
- Outside of his clown costumes, he dresses pretty plainly, in dark colours
⁃ Yes he can actually smile, just, rarely

Character reference sheet for Oliver Graham, a character from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic. He's a middle-aged white man with greying light brown hair and pale blue eyes. He's shown in his usual workday outfit consisting of a black frock coat with matching vest and trousers, plus a tophat and a walking stick. Also shown is the same fit without the coat, and another of him with his shirt and vest unbuttoned, looking dishevelled. There's another of him shirtless, sticking his finger in his ear and wincing. There's a scar on his right bicep.

Text on the image reads:

Oliver Graham
Age: 54
Height: 5'9.5"

- He'll usually start the day off pretty clean-shaven, but by noon he's scruffy again.
- The scar on his arm is from a "farming accident" when he was younger, apparently
- Wears mostly black for work, but he'll wear much brighter vests and ties when he can get away with it for more formal events
- The walking stick is a cane sword, the first thing he bought when he inherited his fortune
- Has occasional bouts of tinnitus

A character reference sheet for Caspian Argyle, a character from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic. He's a tall man with bronze skin, long red hair, and orange eyes. The sheet shows front and back views of his typical outfit that consists of a red coat, a clerical vest, and dark brown trousers. Underneath he wears a grey-blue shirt and suspenders. There is also a view of his burn scars, which cover much of his left arm and some of his chest.

Text on the image says:

Caspian Argyle
Age: 25
Height: 6'5"

- Self-conscious of his scars, and keeps them covered at almost all
times
- The tips of his left thumb and
index finger are missing, and he has
no nails on that hand
- His gloves contain prosthetics, made
of rubber, mostly for aesthetic reasons
- Limited range of motion in his left arm, probably would get better if he wasn't too scared to try
⁃ The only feature he likes about himself is his hair, which goes down to his hips

A digital illustration. Tari Vasquez, a transmasc Cyberpunk character with brown skin, long purple hair and metal... things??? On his face and chest. Idk anything about the game but it's like top surgery scars but cyberpunk 😤. Anyways, he's shirtless and in the middle of putting his hair up.

A digital drawing of two men. One is a younger man dressed as a 1800s police officer, wearing a long heavy coat, police helmet and gloves. The other is an older, taller, and significantly bigger man with a greying red beard, a patched jacket and a flat cap. The first man is wagging his finger at the second with a smug smile, saying "you two behave yourselves today, kay?" while the second man scowls down at him.

Somehow, it's hard to draw Luca looking small, because they are already so itty bitty.

Palm Size
Small in size but can still things.
And it's a palm-sized Luca. Hardly more than an apple tall. Luca is a scrawny pasty androgynous person with short brown hair, yellow eyes and red-tinted glasses. They're wearing a bastardized version of a kimono and hakama pants because they are an absolute dweeb like that.

Bon from the webcomic King of Sorts, wearing sort of his outfit from the early chapters except his coat is much longer and there's some floral print fabric on his pants. He's also got a lava dagger thing and there's more lava stuff going on in the background. I'm really tired. Also he's upside down?? Geez.
