When your hometown’s name is on Benoit Blanc’s tongue, you draw him with copic markers 😌 • I’m new to copic markers, and while this piece isn’t perfect, I’m proud of it ☺️ • This art was made by a human (obviously) • @rianjohnson.bsky.social #knivesout #wakeupdeadman

Benoit Blanc played by Daniel Craig copic market art. He’s looking to the view’s right, his left, where the main light source is coming from

This is probably the fastest #fanart I ever made, because I need to do work art, yet I needed to get this out of my system. Consider this a sketch. Maybe I will do a full rendered art of it. I'm so in for #Hansry OMG. #KingdomCome2 #KC2 #sketch

Still drawing. It's just happening slowly thanks to my anxiety.

a greyscale comic page with three panels.
The first is the eye of an older man with a vertical pupil. It looks sad and is brimming with tears.
The second panel is of two clasped hands.
The third is the lower half of a young boy's face, partially see-through and streaked with tears.

Thanku for the art share🌕😆 Moon wise I can offer the cover I did 4 @noahhawthorne.bsky.social up coming romantasy between an uptight vampire & the menace of an alien he’s searching for but failing to find, possibly because he hasn’t considered that the alien might b his supervisor at the university

A book cover for Mochizuki & Xlato by Noah Hawthorne, also known as Aelina Isaacs, illustrating a pale vampire, wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a dark waist coat and dark slacks, laying on his back in the wet midnight grass. He smokes a cigarette, whose strong tobaccan smoke wafts in the air in a thick stylized current, floating into the moonlight and carrying his lower body up with it. He doesn't pay it any heed though, because he is looking for aliens. His attention is entirely consumed looking into the end of the brass telescope that he lays under, adjusting dials and tilting the angle because some exterior force keeps subtly shifting the scope. That force, meddling with the telescope, is the incredibly obvious alien floating in the smoke. They are a huge being, large enough to near fill the cover with their imposing girth, and they are a handsome one with all the charisma of the god Dionysus and the quiet personal amusement of the fey. They have grey skin that glitters with the fragmented hues of opals between patterns like a shark that are most apparent in their long ribbon like ear lobes. Their half lidded eyes are black with white irises and look down over a shallow wide nose with condensing humour at the vampire looking for them. They're not exactly a danity creature, at least a plump four times the width of the vampire, and even in the dark they glow from the gills slicing through their cheeks and neck. What's more they are not a modest dresser, in open flowing robes that themselves are transparent, and a silk scarf with jingling celestial jewellery. But still, in the starry night they remain unnoticed and amuse themselves with this fact by gently pushing the telescope that is being utilised to find them.
