Por eu me comunicar em maior parte em inglês para que minha mensagem sobre os tubarões tenham maior alcance no mundo, alguns não devem saber que sou Brasileiro. Apenas queria dizer que farei essa história também em nossa lingua. Espero que gostem! 🦈✨

✨🌊 Waters Gone By 🌙✨ This year, if life circumstances allow, I will try to devote myself to an experimental webcomic to finally tell the story of my Sharkfolk! So I made this little animation to present the title of the story. Although I'm unsure about it, I hope I can do it. #shark #sharkfolk

Is there a most iconic battle scene in Pokemon history than Gengar V Nidorino? Wether you started with the games or the anime, this would be the first battle you'd see. Fun fact I inked this piece two years ago but figured I'd finally color it for #pokemonth ! #pokemon30thanniversary #fanart

finally, 3 posters even though I said I wasn't going to get any posters 😅 Daft and Punk are from @puppyshaker.bsky.social and they're so pretty!! I'm obsessed! the Papers, Please poster is by @itshugosnook.bsky.social and it's also so gorgeous!! the amount of detail is incredible and I love it :D

a picture of two posters on a grey carpet. the poster on the left is mostly gold foil with silver accents. it features the head of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo from Daft Punk in robot form. his head is gold with a large black faceplate, and he wears a leather jacket.

the poster on the right is silver foil with gold accents. it features the head of Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk in robot form. his head is silver with a black visor and black line for a mouth. he also wears a leather jacket. the posters are arranged so the two of them are facing each other. sparkles and triangles surround them both

I was so curious which of the different NPCs from the campaign would be picked by whoever got me in the Secret Santa Art Trade. To my surprise @magvster.bsky.social chose a whole settlement of them

It's been awesome seeing my collaboration with @displate.com arriving in people's homes across the world. Truly one of the artworks I've poured all of my isometric love & greek mythology geekiness into, and it is heartwarming to see the love it's getting.

Hi hi #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨ I'm Requinoesis, someone who loves the ocean! I'm dedicated to creating a new insight into the imagery of sharks under pastel colors! 🌊🦈✨ You can see more of my art stuff here, if you want: linktr.ee/requinoesis

Roberto, the great hammerhead shark, explores the ruins of an ancient museum destroyed by Typhon's storm. He holds a flashlight and carries a mysterious human spirit in his backpack, who accompanies him in silence.

The place, shrouded by the phenomenon called “cursed salt mist”, is covered in a permanent fog. Salt crystals sprout everywhere and a supernatural presence seem to lurk among the rubble.

The spirit that accompanies Roberto is liquid and translucent. Sometimes little tropical fish of extinct species float around him, as if attracted by his presence.

The museum's architecture is full of organic curves and ornate tiles. Decorated columns show a crab with a human face holding the moon between its pincers, an ancient symbol of a historical figure revered by the sharkfolk.

A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants.

A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea.

An allegory of the "Jaws" movie poster that caused damage and negative stereotypes to the image of sharks that persist to this day (I'm glad it's slowly changing, but it's still too slow to be considered forgivable). Now with a reversal of roles, with the human victim replaced by a simple wild shark and the terrible stereotyped shark replaced by a monstrous human skull seeming to want to devour the shark (this is the reality, we kill thousands of sharks every year, many of them killed for irrational reasons, who is the real cruel killer?)

Just make it exist first. I saw this trend going around - especially in the pixelart circles - but i figured I'd bring it over cuz it applies to almost every artistic field. Heck to almost anything really. Make it exist, make it happen. And THEN polish, work-it, improve it. #artprocess #donkeykong
