I'm still slowly working on the story I had planned for May Wolf this past year... I haven't been able to draw or work on much lately due to a lot of health issues, so I'm just taking my time for once 😅. I'm debating whether to release it all at once, or over a few chapters...🤔

I like having video game parody splash screens for my short vn projects. I'm working on one for a collab, but still need to make a background for this. I'm pretty happy with how this one is turning out, though. Hopefully I can do an audio jingle for this one in the vein of the game intro as well.😁

Also playing the same note repeatedly sounds a bit monotonous, but I tried to throw together a short (mostly) synced track. I tried to draw him playing an actual D chord, though with the cartoony proportions, I couldn't quite make Eddy's hands' width fit correctly on the neck of the guitar.

I managed to add his arm strumming. 😅 It's not the most fluid animation, but I only know how to do frame by frame in ProCreate. It took a bit to redraw the guitar and cut out the arm to layer it back on top. If I were doing it over, I'd try to add blur to the strings as they're being played. 🤔

I wanted to try my hand on adding some lighting effects for the Christmas lights and fireplace. I wish I had saved his arm as a separate layer so I could animate him strumming the guitar; I may still go back and try to add thar later, though. I didn't draw it with animating it in mind at the time. 😅

The textless version. I also fixed where I moved the fireplace grate and forgot to clean it up after re-trimming it 😅

After cobbling together a hastily constructed MW '25 jam admin pic, I tried to draw a bit of a ref sheet for @aareal.bsky.social as a surprise the other day. After seeA ing the original, he requested a few... alternate versions 😎 I recycled the background from my drawing for @azunnite.bsky.social

Aareal's cat sona with multiple outfit (or lack of outfit) variations. Aareal is a blueish gray striped cat with tufted ears, white hair in the shape of an "M" on his face, and is often seen with a blep. He also has white palms and a white tummy, as is the tip of his tail. Variations include null, nude, caged, swimwear, jock strap, compression shorts, formal suit, casual with a dark hoodie, T-shirt and khakis, and tennis shoes, and finally a white mage with a staff.

Thank you @wagleunagi.bsky.social for the commissioned con badge and fvn enjoyer ribbon... 😊 I'll likely never be in a position to attend one myself, but I can at least be there in spirit!

Azunite got a bit overheated while catching some rays out on the beach, so he recruited some friends to help him cool down. Does he not realize the nude beach is actually two km down the road? This is a drawover request he asked me to do months ago... hope you enjoy it, otterpop! 😆

Thanks @ariguardian.bsky.social for the beautiful artwork of me and my otter bud @azunnite.bsky.social. I couldn't think of anyone more suited to draw a bear and otter than the creator of Heat Source. 😊 If you haven't read his vn, check it out at ari-guardian.itch.io/heat-source

An otter in overalls a bandana around his neck lays on the chest of his much larger bear friend who is wearing boxer briefs. The otter strokes the bear's beard and gazing into his eyes. They are laying on top of a sofa in a room surrounded by house plants and a rug in the center of the floor. The bear is a bit too large for the couch, with one foot propped up on the arm rest and another paw on the rug in thr middle of the floor.

I asked @ariguardian.bsky.social to draw my sona for me... I love how it turned out! Thanks, bear bro!

A collab/trade of sorts with Ragmaan; I drew a (noncanonical) scene set in "The Werewolf Conservation Program" universe, and he wrote a story to go with it... Check out the "treat" this drawing and short story is based on at ragmaan.itch.io/werewolf-con... Hope you enjoy! 🐺

The WCP is always looking for new recruits. It’s not their fault our hiker didn’t pay attention to the fine print on the sign even if it was “accidentally” knocked down. Serendipitously, there’s also a bright full moon out tonight, just before an eclipse! I wonder how that will affect the pack?

I just got this commission done by @marshmallowpupy.bsky.social Thanks for making this old bear look handsome! 🐻

I released my newest game as part of the NovemBEAR Game Jam. We are only allowed one month to write, draw and code the game. The base character sprites are provided by Arcadia Adair and music is provided by Camazule. Sprite alterations, additional sprites, story and coding is by me.

I did an art trade with @wagleunagi.bsky.social; I made some posters for Denfur for him, and in turn he had an artwork commissioned for me at the con. This was by @hoodiedogs.bsky.social and the prompt was to make something akin to Sonic the Hedgehog, as I tend to get things done fast! 😄 Thanks!

I added shading and clothing to my reference sheet.

My first attempt at a reference sheet. It's hard keeping the proportions the same across different views, but at least I tried!

Still working on my new profile pic. Lately I've been trying to figure out how to take drawings and change the perspective, such as taking a front-facing shot and turning it sideways, or vice versa. I think it will help me make more dynamic vn sprites and cutscenes in the future.

Jerbear @jmjerbear.itch.io · 19/06/2024

Ari's a nice dude. Glad you got some of his art! Fun fact, I never made a profile pic for my accounts until I saw his artwork & thought "Hey, his bears are cute. I wonder if I can draw one, too." That, and his threat to use this as the standard Patreon profile pic if we didn't have one... he did it.

This character is the embodiment of my late father; the scowl, the judgmental look of utter disappointment in me... I can smell diesel and hydraulic oil just looking at it! (he was a heavy equipment operator) Was particularly happy with how the shirt came out; doing patterns on clothing is hard!

Learning to use my tablet to draw; started with sketching my profile icon, and pretty happy with the results. I haven't really drawn much of anything since high school over 20 years ago, but want to try and get back into it. I like writing and composing music, so maybe eventually I can make a vn...
