Suddenly I'm joining artfight this year, I had planned to last year but never had any OCs up. This is my first official year playing on team mystery with the main two characters for my western story. Albeit rushed, I actually got it done on time!🪻 #artfight #oc #artfight2026 #cowboyoc #digitalart

#OC #originalcharacter #OCsky Ngl I feel like people should make it a trend to make mock versions of those Sanrio collab arts with their OCs Like the ones where its the character with whatever Sanrio character is closest to their personality It would be cute asf please internet🙏🏻

The Dushaun Thompson as Sanford in this outfit requested that I at long last make it digitally. I was learning stuff in the 3 months of procrastinating and 15 hours of actually painting, Enjoy! #art #artsky #Drawing #MadnessCombat

The entertainment industry makes billions annually and yet so many of us are out of work due to artificial studio-made job scarcity. This isn't a career anymore, it's a gig economy. How can we make the next hit in a field that spits us out faster than it can chew us up?
