My final entry for #ArtFight2026, a mass attack featuring characters from five different artists! Links below. twitter.com/Stormfanged a-piece-of-kale-called-kazryn.tumblr.com instagram.com/Boo0151/ vgen.co/KAIDAMA/port... instagram.com/shamrock_2705/

A turtle with a brown-and-pink cowboy aesthetic, a white Homestuck Carapacian in old clothes and a belt of chains, a crow-masked fellow in a dapper suit, and an actual crow (or perhaps kenku) gather around to listen as a small dust bunny with glasses reads from a book, while sitting on a veritable wall of other books.

Next #ArtFight2026 attack - Wave, by 1nsertl0ngnam3here (no links for them, unfortunately).

An aquatic-style dragon, complete with angler-bulb, stands at the shoreline with their hind feet and tail in the water. The nighttime sky is reflected in the sea behind them.

Another attack for #ArtFight2026! Here's a character based off of my own #TeamTragedy by Cozy_Starlight! Visit their Tumblr: rose-maiden.tumblr.com

A figure raises a hand dramatically toward the spotlight on a dimly-lit stage. Their hair hangs in long, bluish locks that match the cool color scheme of their theatrical clothes. They wear a half-mask depicting a weeping 'tragedy' face and hold a wilting rose in their lowered hand.

Unfortunately, I've suffred a shoulder injury JUST after finishing the last Art Fight picture, so I might not be able to get more going for a few days. Here's hoping the rest of #TeamTragedy can keep up the pace in my absence! ;)

Next entry for #ArtFight2026! It's Walpurgisnight's pizza-delivering dragon, Bao-long! The artist doesn't have a BlueSky, so here's the only link I could find they're associated with: toyhou.se/dragonoclast

An Asian-style dragon in the outfit of a pizza delivery boy flies through a city-like setting on balls of fire under his feet. He totes a stack of pizza boxes with him, ready to deliver them Spider-Parker-style!

My first attack for #artfight2026! Here's my follow-up to the piece for Princess Etherveil last year, her sister, Princess Everstar, also done by the splendid artist @c4rdboardboxx.bsky.social ~! Just noticing some errors I made, but going back to fix them now would mess up the composition. U_U

A stained glass window depicts an MLP alicorn using her magic to raise the sun over flowering hills. Her hair is curly and streaked like gold, and her cutie mark is a small shooting star winding its way over a larger star. The icon of the sun (previously Princess Celestia's cutie mark) is held in her hoof.

Here is the same picture as previously, but aglow with backlighting.

Participating in Art Fight again this year (Go Team Tragedy!), and entered this newcomer to the lineup of characters that can be attacked. It was fun learning to paint the 'liquid gold' style, and makes me want to do more of that in the future~

This is a reference sheet for a character named Avaritia, the sin of greed personified. He takes the form of a male anthropomorphic cat here, though text describes that he can assume any form and gender he chooses. Further details show how his gold jewelry forms into claws when needed, and how when his own greed boils over, it turns into liquid gold that oozes from his eyes and mouth. Creepy!

I'm a bit rusty with Sonic's proportions, and this event snuck up on me, so sorry if it's not up to my best quality. Here's an entry for the #35DaysSonic drawing event, #1 - "Tradition". Nothing more traditional than picking up some rings around a loop-de-loop!

Sonic the Hedgehog, the fastest thing alive, runs around a loop-de-loop, grabbing some golden rings on the way.

Here's a piece I was inspired to make out of the blue - Vexior the Ember Dream, a dragon NPC from a D&D game I've been running off-and-on. #dragon #dragonart

A red-scaled dragon soars through a shower of fiery sparks. He has burning eyes, black horns, and a series of amber stones around his foreleg, bound my a chain of mithral.

Here's another main character from the comic that might have been and still may be: Jaspyr!

An anthropomorphic red fox poses with his paws on the pommel of a sword whose point rests in front of him. He wears a light blue headband and a blue surcoat with gold trim, belted with a yellow sash. Letters beneath him give his name as "Jaspyr Locksteppe".

Got a flash of inspiration to draw a character from a webcomic I dreamt up ages ago and never quite managed to make more than a few pages of. The original art style was too "Sonic", and the second attempt was too detailed. This happy medium might just help me get back into the swing of things~

An anthropomorphic cat strikes a pose wearing a green tunic, brown short trousers, brown leather gloves, and a blue cape that compliments his golden fur with cream-colored markings. In his hand manifests an object like a rudimentary sword with a glowing red sigil on the blade, which bears holes in it, as though it cannot form completely. The figure is labeled with the name of Cashmere "Cash" Furoros.

Decided to post these custom-crafted Goetia-style sigils for the five Demon Princes of the In Nomine RPG that lack them. #occult #demonology #innomine #ttrpg

A sigil, in the style of the Ars Goetia, with the name "ALAEMON" printed in the outer ring of the circle.

[Cowboy Bebop final scene spoilers] Was going to just use the scene for reference and insert my own characters, but that was too much effort for the sake of cribbing a pose, so I just edited in some wings. The idea of recreating this sort of shot is what makes me interested in playing In Nomine.

A famous shot from the final scene of Cowboy Bebop, with Spike and Vicious trading fatal blows. The scene has been edited to give Vicious a pair of demonic wings while Spike has been given feathered angel wings and a halo.

Wanted to get some practice with drawing the abstract, "biblically accurate" style of angel. Think it could use more wings, next time... #angel #art

Floating amid a whorl of color is an angel comprised entirely of wings and eyes. A shining golden halo is visible between its seven wings.

Made my own custom sigil for Belphegor, in the style of the Ars Goetia. Tried to upload the transparent version of this, but for whatever reason, it turned into just a black square. Here's a version with the white background for visibility. #occult #demonology #belphegor

A sigil, in the style of those in the Ars Goetia, sits in a circle. Letters circumscribed around the perimeter read, "BELPHEGOR".

Made an art piece for my own custom Superior for the In Nomine RPG: Belphegor, Demon Princess of Sloth. #innomine #ttrpg #art

A six-winged, goat-legged female demon hovers over a sigil in a glowing circle whose circumscribed letters read "BELPHEGOR". The figure has curved horns hung with moon and star trinkets, as well as an incense censer emitting lavender smoke. She holds a ghostly light before her hooded, shrouded face, which is lined with brass coins engraved with lidded eyes. A dark crown glows with reddish light above her head.

Did a thing to practice more human shapes. From the In Nomine RPG, here's a stained glass design depicting Belial, Demon Prince of Fire - such as might be seen in his palace in Sheol, complete with a version using fiery "backlighting". #innomine #ttrpg #art

A stained glass window depicts a demon with black-feathered wings, hovering over robed supplicants. A fiery motif pervades the scene. The window is crowned by the occult sigil of Belial.

This is an alternate rendition of the previous image, with an orange glow, suggesting a fiery backlight.

Here's the entries I've made for a series I may or may not continue at some point - Anthrolympians! #greekmyth #art

The ancient Greek goddess Athena, as an anthropomorphic owl, stands with shield and spear, looking away into the distance.

The ancient Greek god Hades, as an anthropomorphic black sheep, hovers amid swirls of green vapor while looking down upon you. He holds a two-pronged war fork. One of his horns is broken, but remains in place.

Decided to make a simplified version of my recently-developed chart of occult element relations. Thinking there are demons of all the elemental types, but actual techniques only come in the eight base elements.

This is a chart of the effectiveness of eight types of occult elements against thirty-six demon elemental types, all presented like the type matchups of Pokemon moves.

Like some artists I follow, I too hopped on the #smilingcritters bandwagon. Here's an AU I made up for them: The Spacing Critters!

Here's a little thing for #halloween2025, an NPC from my D&D campaign: Aiden Vacce, the forgotten first vampire!

Backed by mists and framed by moonlight, a dark figure stands at the end of an alley, as if blocking the way as he casts his shadow toward you. His dark cloak is torn and held with a clasp whose emblem has been tarnished by time. His clothes are of fine make but have seen obvious wear and little repair. His hand rests on the pommel of a greatsword that has rivulets of blood trailing down its blade. Blood also stains his hand and chin. His nails are long, sharp claws and a prominent fang protrudes over his crooked lip as he stares forward with sunken, bloodshot eyes.

Just at the last minute, a final attack in #artfight against the talented @c4rdboardboxx.bsky.social! Their lovely OC, Princess Etherveil, rendered in stained glass, in honor of an AU wherein she takes over Luna's post (next year, I may do her sister, who replaces Celestia)~

Rendered in a stylized, stained glass style: A teal-and-green alicorn mare hovers over grassy hills and cradles a small moon crescent as her magic raises the real moon on the horizon. The cutie mark on her flank resembles a swirl of magic and a blue star shape behind a crescent moon.

Here's another entry for #artfight - this one is of Sun Steel, an MLP OC by the talented Nacht Raven (who doesn't appear to have a Bluesky account, sadly)~

A brown coated pony mare whose mane and tail have been shaven away works at a fiery forge, her gold-coated horn aglow as sparks fly around her. Her cutie mark is a hammer and anvil in front of a golden, sun-like ring.

This is my character for a friend's Pathfinder campaign - Love Cap (aka "Cappy"), the fungus leshy!

Light on one side, dark on the other, we see the same creature, like a walking mushroom with purple eyes bits of white lichen forming its arms, legs, and a veil around its cap, which is damaged on the top. The right side shows the lichen and eyes glowing with an eerie violet light.

Another addition to my setting, and one of Haydel's teammates - Crozz, the living mask!

We see a creature whose body is made entirely of orange energy, wearing simple, gray-colored clothes and a wrist device, as well as a white, bird-like mask. They are holding a primitive, bejeweled staff of some kind. A text box informs us that this person, Crozz, is actually the mask itself, projecting their own bodily form using a special power of theirs. They are employed with an organization known as C.R.E.W.

Here's a dossier on a character for a setting I've had rolling around my brain for a while. Hoping to do a bit more with this setting later.

We see Haydel Defresne, a short, green-furred creature like a rabbit with goat horns, wearing glasses and an outfit highlighted with cyberpunk-like lines. Her left hand is enclosed with a Megaman-like blaster, firing in one direction, while her other hand blocks incoming fire from the other using a yellow glow that surrounds her. A box of text gives us some data on her employment with the organization known as C.R.E.W.

Here's a Mew OC I sketched ages ago and finally got around to properly drawing recently. Their name is Diva, and they are very busy!

We see Diva (he/they), a green-eyed Mew wearing a black necktie, floating as their body and eyes softly glow, looking right at us with uncertain intent.

Fresh on my new account purely for my art, here's an entry I made for #mermay! Leolani was slated to appear in a webcomic I may or may not get around to doing someday!

Leolani, a mermaid who, rather than the head of a woman, has the upper appearance of an anthropomorphic feline, strikes a luxurious underwater pose.
