Finished Foster's costume lineup! Now I've gotta make a version with dirt and bloodstains, cuz you know... Nosferatu's gotta eat. #CostumeDesign #DigitalArt #OCSky #VampireOC #NosferatuOC #WoD #VtM #noAI

A series of 4 figures to display the layered outfit of my vampire OC named Foster, a rat-themed artistic-nerd Nosferatu.

From left to right: First figure shows Foster in their underwear and boots, a soft apron belly and top-surgery scars and many other smaller animal-scratch scars all over. Second figure is layer one of their outfit: patchwork overalls with a tunic-style t-shirt and multiple beaded necklaces. Third figure adds a 3-tiered skirt and octagonal-glasses. Fourth figure adds a knit hat, baggy knit sweater with a rat in the pocket, and draped scarf.

work in progress character sheet for Foster - the base features a soft apron-belly, top-surgery scars and a lot of scratch-scarring on their arms, legs, and torso from their work with animals. They're wearing dark-gray boxers, dark-gray compression socks, and mulberry-red barefoot boots.

New costume design for Foster, but I basically made this an excuse to figure out what their body looks like under all those layers. #OCsky #Nosferatu #WoD #VtM #VampireOC #sketchWIP

A series of grayscale sketches of a vampire OC named Foster, a rat-themed art-nerd Nosferatu. From left to right there are 4 figures. First figure shows Foster in their underwear and boots.

We started our VtM chronicle earlier in Foster's unlife than I expected, so now I've got this golden opportunity to make a series of portraits of how Foster transforms into Nosferatu... #VtM #OCsky #digitalart #sketch #wip

Some costume studies for Foster in their work uniform as a mortal and eventually how they settle in as Nosferatu. #OCsky #VtM #Nosferatu #wip #digitalpainting

Three costume studies for Foster, a Nosferatu - 1) a plus-sized human in blue vet-scrubs holding a clipboard, wearing glasses and dirty-blonde hair in a loose bun, 2) a boho-goblincore kindred with oversized eyes and rat-like fangs, carrying a sketchbook and pocket-rats 3) a grayscale version of the same costume but layered for the outdoors with more scarves, a face mask, headphones and glasses.

A close-up colored portrait of Foster, a Nosferatu, and their Famulus, Peebles the rat, on their shoulder. They're carrying a sketchbook and wearing earth-tone homemade sweaters with a lot of variety in pattern and texture. Their eyes are dark and overlarge and they drift in slightly different directions.

I promised more vampires, so here we go... I've been working on a new OC named Foster (he/they), a Nosferatu, whose concept is "Artistic Rat-Nerd" with a "boho goblincore" aesthetic. They are a cinnamon roll. #VtM #Nosferatu #WoD #OCsky #sketches #rats

I spent more time finishing this than I meant to, but as a Minnesotan, I've been a little distracted lately... Well, here's the first of many illustrations I want to finish in 2026 anyway.

This commission took me way too long to finish, but I really enjoyed the process of making it. Client asked me to draw their cat as Chiron the Ferryman, but with some specific quirks about their pet. I absolutely love bringing these sort of mash-up concepts to life 🥰 #CommissionArt #noAI

A black cat with bright orange eyes sits in a fluffy bed-like boat in the floating dark water of a misty cave setting. The cat has its front leg outstretched with its paw just touching the water. An "omega" crest is mounted to the rear of the boat, and a blue-lamp hangs from the front of the boat with a blue flame that casts an eerie blue light on everything. Inside the boat is a collection of video-game coins and gems, and the cat is turning its head to purr "Pay the toll"

I had such an enjoyable time working on this commission last year for @ankaret.bsky.social - I'm so happy with how the lighting turned out. I don't get to go full-out with backgrounds like this often enough, but I'm glad that I did it. #humanartists #noai #commissionart #digitalart

The genderless scholar has purple skin and purple curls. They are sitting on a red-cushioned window seat, reading a book while holding a yellow mug of tentacles and eyeballs. There is a small gelatinous cube on the floor beside them with bones floating inside, like a dog treat. On the wall behind them is a bookshelf made of a living tree, full of books and knicknacks. The windowpane is also made of living tree and the view from it shows an overgrown graveyard and wizard tower on the hill in the distance.

A character design reference sheet featuring my fursona, Kiiro, reimagined as a ringtail possum with blue eyes and goldfinch wings. They have a long fluffy, striped tail and their yellow-gold fur has a holographic sheen that matches their rainbow-painted claws. They are wearing rectangular glasses and their ears are pierced with 3 rings. Accessories include a draft notebook, pencil/eraser set, cream-colored vest with nonbinary flag-heart pin, and cream-colored fedora.

I could keep fiddling with this version for forever, but not get any closer to what I actually want because I made too many little details I don't actually want to draw again 😂😭 time to start over again, I guess 🤣 #characterdesign #OCsky #furryart #fursona #nonbinary #enby
