lost focus on the redesign in the final art piece so I've included a couple extra plushie beaftie sketches ^_^ I think Sham would love having beaftie transform into a little plushie so they'd be the same size LOL #brushweek2025

Digital art of beaftie (a human-animal hybrid) redesigned as a plushie, along with Sham in his ventriloquist puppet form. Beaftie is happily holding an oversized dandelion, and Sham stands behind them, a hand on their shoulder, smiling at them as he says something. Beaftie's tail is wrapped around behind Sham.

Beaftie as a button-eyed bean-filled plushie with a braided yarn tail.

Beaftie re-imagined as a Sanrio character.

doodled this within a week of receiving my autism diagnosis, funniest thing I'll ever draw in my life probably

A pencil doodle of a fox fursona hitting a human on the head with a comically large mallet hammer. The fox is saying "you have AUTISM!" and a BONK! sound effect is beside the mallet. The human is in a starfish pose with a look of utter shock on their face. The doodle is dated as 2019 or 2020.

The Pauper gives the Prince an offer he can't refuse.

An ink drawing of all three parts of Perlant: from left to right is Pearl, Perley, and Ant, otherwise known as the Pauper, Prince, and Performer.

Pearl leans down and holds Perley's chin in their hand, a knife held behind their back as they assess Perley with squinted eyes. Perley is kneeling on the ground looking defeated and anxious. Ant stands behind Perley, anxiously stanced as it places its hands on Perley's back, as if to push Perley towards Pearl.

The drawing is done in black and white with spots of red. Pearl's hat is coloured red, and blood drips from the knife they hold and the ends of both their sleeves. Blood spills from their hand under Perley's chin. Ant seems to be crying blood, and there is a small pool of blood under its feet, as well as under Perley's boots.

The sentence "Let me do it for you" is written in the drawing, and the two words "do it" are highlighted with red.

A sketch that I liked so much, I inked and coloured it! It's fun to be able to celebrate #Métis culture with my characters ^_^

An ink and coloured pencil drawing of Wardell and Dandy, two original characters. Wardell is a pale-skinned Métis man in his mid to late 20's, and Dandy is a fae whose appearance is humanoid with design inspiration taken from dandelions and sheep. The two of them are dancing while wearing Métis clothing - Dandy wears a ribbon-decorated blouse and a floral-pattern ribbon skirt, and Wardell wears a traditional Métis sash around his waist and a leather vest over a plaid button up shirt. Wardell is wearing his hair in two thin braids. They're both smiling at one another; Dandy looks excited and adoring, whilst Wardell appears to be more reserved with a soft and fond expression on his face.

crawling back in to share #weirdfur art. lyrics from Snotty Nose Rez Kids ^_^

A sketchbook page featuring three sketches of two of OP's OCs. The first sketch has the beastie, a human/animal hybrid, cowering back with a red circle around their upper body. The second is a chibi form of the beastie sitting on the ground. The third sketch shows the beastie and Wardell, a scruffy human man with a long church grim tail, kneeling facing each other and each holding up a hand in front of them as if they're going to clasp hands. The background behind them is patterned with multicoloured diamond shapes, and the words "I see through kaleidoscopes, I've been in survival mode" surround them. The page is dated as June 9, 2025.

on stream the other day, I did not realize that selecting the snowman piece mid-fight with Asgore would cause you to eat it, and wowzers - the fright it gave me....!!

A doodle of Star the pierrot, OP's sona, tossing a snowball into their mouth, chewing and realizing, and then panicking as they shout "that was a piece of a guy!!!".

I've only had Kishi for... [checks watch]... six days and counting but I am absolutely obsessed with them

A traditional pen sketch of a person holding up a teddy-like critter in front of them towards the viewer. The critter has a huge animal nose, beady eyes, and a wide smile, along with floppy ears.

Various silly pen sketches of the critter from the first image.

BAD ENDING! something about the violence of the medical psychiatric system, especially isolation ("observation") rooms within psychiatric wards and the constant monitoring therein #art #deadwoodlodge

Digital art featuring an original character, a young preteen girl named Millie. Against a bloody red background with bright yellow slashes and thin strips of repeating smiley faces, there is a brown therapist's chair and two screen monitors. One the bottom larger monitor, the text "We're not here to judge you" appears in bright yellow capital letters on a staticky screen. On the top smaller monitor, there is a camera live feed showing Millie sitting cross-legged and looking upwards with a dull, tired, lifeless expression. She is wearing drab hospital clothing and a plain headband in her messy hair. In the upper left corner of the screen a timestamp is written, showing 10:17:46, and in the upper right corner shows the livefeed's label, "observation cam 1".

I learned how to use gradient maps the other day :o] #art #deadwoodlodge #ocart

Digital art of Wardell and Dandyfae, two original characters, kneeling and facing each other. Dandyfae has just put a daisy flower crown on Wardell's head and is smiling at him, with their leaf-antennae curving inwards towards each other to form a heart shape. Wardell has his head lowered with a bashful smile on his face. Dandyfae is a humanoid fae, with a mixture of design elements taken from sheep and dandelions. Wardell is a young human man with shaggy hair, pale skin, and an exhausted appearance. The art is coloured in shades of purple, orange, and yellow.

The same image as previously but this time coloured in shades of black and white, a screenshot of the art before the gradient map filter was added.

The prototype meets its successor. (Nov 2024) This was my first attempt at creating a comic page! I learned a lot about storytelling through comics as a medium and am excited to continue exploring and learning! #deadwoodlodge #art

A comic showing two automaton characters - Lastly the pierrot companion and Empty Mask the run-down prototype - meeting for the first time. Lastly walks through the dark and fidgets nervously, while Empty Mask holds a couple of old dolls - one of which is missing an arm - in its hands as if playing with them. Lastly peers up into the darkness, and spots Empty Mask crouching on top of one of the towering junk piles around the room. They wave at each other curiously. Empty Mask tilts its head and drops both dolls, and then bends forward to climb down the trash heap towards Lastly. The dolls land beside each other with their arms overlapping as if holding hands.

Escaping the fae realm is no easy feat…. it requires quite the leap of faith! (from August 2024) #art #deadwoodlodge

Digital art of Dandy, a fae OC. There are three drawings of them on the page. In the middle, they are facing away from the viewer, stepping off a ledge with their arms outstretched to either side. There is text curving over their back, reminiscent of wings, and the text reads "there is still a way out!" in all lowercase. On the left, Dandy is falling backwards, looking down over their shoulder with a wide-eyed expression and reaching down with one hand. On the right, Dandy is falling forwards, stretching and reaching towards the ground with a determined expression. The background is a heavily filtered photo of a river curving through a forest and mountain.

Dead Girl Shenanigans Bramwell’s never seen a sphynx cat before, much less one wearing clothes…. Millie decides to see how long she can keep up the ruse that this is a new lodger and not just a pet! This is my second-ever attempt at a comic page and I've learned a lot from it!

A comic page showing an interaction between three OCs: Millie the preteen girl, Bramwell the middle-aged fae-vampire, and a recently "adopted" sphynx cat. Millie is sitting at a counter working on a doodle about how she "adopted" (AKA stole) a sphynx cat from the city while the cat sits on the chair beside her. Bramwell comes down the stairs and sees the cat, and exclaims, "Oh, hello! I don't believe we've met! What may I call you?" Millie is confused, unsure who he's speaking to, until she sees the cat dressed in a toque and baby onesie beside her. As she stares down at the cat, she realizes Bramwell must think the cat is a new lodger, and she proceeds to have a devious idea, shown using the Grinch grin and a lightbulb. She points at the cat, putting on her best innocent expression, and tells Bramwell simply, "His name is Bartholomew" with "mew" underlined. Bramwell nods happily as the cat blankly stares up at them both.

from August 2024, when I realized I could just make collage art digitally if I wanted to ^-^ featuring Wardell in his dog form and a quote from a book I really enjoyed reading!

A digital collage of a blood-stained gray dog looking behind him in an angry defensive position, a trail of bloody footprints left behind him. A quote on the page reads, "You cannot disown what is yours. Flung out, there is always the return, the reckoning, the revenge, perhaps the reconciliation. There is always the return. And the wound will take you there." End quote. Quote is attributed to Jeanette Winterson's book titled "Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?". In the background, a Death tarot card and an upside-down Temperance tarot card are tucked just behind the horizon line. A pine branch with a lit lightbulb hanging from it grows out from the right side of the page.

"There's a world where I can take flight, where I can freely move..." (🎵Rule #4, Fish in a Birdcage) Here's Lastly the companion automaton :]

Digital art of an automaton pierrot sitting in a circus hoop. They have a butterfly painted on each cheek, and a blank static facial expression.

Same as the first image but with a gradient and texture overlay.

hiya, taanishi! I'm Dandy (they/them), and I enjoy telling and sharing stories through whatever medium is closest at hand! nearly all of my creative work is geared towards my pet project "Deadwood Lodge". my other art is usually fanart, most often pokemon :] dandyghest.carrd.co

Traditional pen and pencil crayon art of five original characters plus Pikachu. From left to right: Wardell, Dandyfae holding Pikachu, Millie holding Quilt, and Bramwell. Wardell is a scruffy pale-skinned man with a long tail. Dandyfae is a humanoid fae with sheep and dandelion design elements. Millie is a mischievous white preteen girl in a bright orange summer dress. Quilt is a fashionable sentient ragdoll. Bramwell is a very pale fat fae-vampire.

A digital painting that looks like a polaroid. It shows Dandy's pokemon trainersona feeding their greavard a spoonful of nondescript meat and sauce. At the bottom of the polaroid's frame, the word "chawmp!" has been written in all capital letters.
