Finally finished my second selkie illustration. General business as well as the illustration itself made it an endeavour of several days. I have named her Rayleigh.

A selkie. I may try drawing her again wearing her Sealskin like a cloak or a cape.

More Vivian. When she dances her arm and leg will often dissolve into patterns like this. I didn’t quite capture the movement i wanted in this one but i’m happy with the effort i made regardless.

more Vivian! The swirls behind her are her Pattern--a visualisation of her imagination that appears when magic interacts with her body.

Liannon and Connie Harper, a mother and child. Both are Sopakliphs, creatures bred to hunt the vast monstrosities of their frozen homeland. Liannon is a full grown adult of their kind. Connie is half grown, having reached human adulthood but not yet developing the traits of a mature Sopakliph.

Another friend’s character. Pico. She’s an owl girl and a killer for hire. of this friend’s characters, pico is one of my favourites.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

More Kite. I decided to draw her in a rather simple outfit. I think i’ll work on making it more detailed later. Kite is Sombre’s niece, and shares many of her physical features with him. Not the least of which being their unusual height.

More Amberey sketching. Working on figuring out the anatomy of her arms still. Getting closer, though it was still a struggle.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Little sketch of a character named Kite. A timid artist that hides a vast imagination behind a quiet demeanour. She and Vivian are close friends.

A sketch i did for a friend, of one of their characters. her name is mirai.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

A sketch i did recently. the priority was capturing the motion of this character’s dance, so i decided to forgo anatomical accuracy a little more than i usually would

Mermaid doodling! These are just little sketches I make to test out ideas. The character’s name is Amberey, a member of a people known as True Nirshe. The term “Nirshe” is generic, used to refer to a wide variety of seafolk-True Nirshe specifically are often large and serpentine.

Fediel the Black, from GBF. Though i personally know her from Relink. A lot of sketching went into this one, and the drawing itself took an unusually long time. It’s probably my most detailed drawing to date.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

Slightly older drawing. Fan art of Ferry, my GBVSR main! I decided to try drawing her as a ribbon dancer.

Ferry with her pets.
Fugee and nicola are easy to draw (pretty much just circles with nubs attached), geegee and beppo were a little harder.
Momo was an outright challenge and i wish I’d done better with him.

Millie the jellyfish mermaid. Tried to create a glow around her, with mixed results. this whole painting was done with varying purples.

The painting. Most of her shape was figured out in the painting itself.

Corey the Pixie! She is the sister of Mule. they differ from each other greatly in interests, though perhaps not in general kookiness. Corey is a warrior, and as such her knack for chemistry is channelled more into weaponry.

Early sketch.
This is kind of where i decided she’d be a warrior.

Sketch to get her figure and silhouette down

Finished drawing! I like how wild she ended up looking.

010

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Mule the Pixie. She was invented as a counterpart to another pixie I was doodling. They’re sisters, both brilliant chemists, only Mule is a passionate foodie and her sister is a warrior with a knack for poisons.

First page of sketches. Figuring out things like her face and silhouette. I came up with the idea for a pixie with braided hair on a seperate drawing and thought it would look nice on her.

Design doodle i based the illustration on.

Finished illustration.
Came out alright. I find her ears very fun, and i like the outfit. Hair definitely could have been better.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

More granblue fan art. Anila this time. Unlike Versusia i DO actually play this character! A tiny bit. I main Ferry though. I decided to draw her as a mountain shepherdess, relaxing with her sheep and smoking a pipe.

Honestly by this stage i did not expect much of this drawing. I don’t draw sitting poses much.

By this stage though i was very happy. It’s not perfect but it came out better than i ever expected.

One of my earlier efforts at painting. This is Sombre Makharta, an altruistic spell maker. Alongside Vivian, he is one of my oldest continuous characters.

I did all the outfit sketching for sombre in pen. They ended up much messier than usual, but before doing this i used to waste a lot of time erasing on my sketches.

Line art.
Looking at it now i wince at all the pencil smudges.

Finished painting!
I considered a background but ultimately i settled for just the portrait. I wish the movement was better, but hey, just another reason to re-paint him!

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Fable of the listening folk. A passionate storyteller with a vivid imagination. Fiction is a way to connect with the world for her. In her head is a library of self made myths, about the sky, and the sea, about every stream or mountain she crosses. Perhaps unsurprisingly, she chose her name herself

Outfit/face sketching.
It took me a long time to get her body right, but i knew what kind of outfit she had pretty much right away.

of all the witches, Fable is the one i struggled with the most.
Several things i wish i’d done better, so I’ll probably redraw her at some point

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Baba of the listening folk. They are a stick witch, with a large collection of fine branches with which to hit things. Sometimes people. Only sometimes.

Honestly looking at this sketch makes me think i beed to redraw this character to match it better

One of my favourite things about making this coven has been seeing how different people respond to different characters.
Seeing who likes Baba the most of the bunch has been especially fun.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

A sketch of Vivian, one of my oldest characters. She’s been with me for almost as long as i have been drawing. she’s grouchy, and she loves dancing.

This is all there is for this one.
It’s just some basic casual wear she’d wear at home.

I’m alright with this pose, though i do wish i’d done better with her piercings

010

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

More mermaid. her name is Pipi! She’s named after a shellfish. I remember digging them up when i was younger, it was like a treasure hunt. Pipi herself is a treasure hunter, so I decided to name her after that experience.

I must admit i had the reference material i needed almost immediately, i was just having fun doodling her.
Bottom right is the pose sketch.

Pencil sketch.
I wasn’t sure how the tattoos would work in the painting.

Line work. I thought some parts would be easier to paint if they didn’t need to compete with ink, so i left them in pencil.

Finished painting.
I do really like this one, but there were definitely aspects of the colours i could have done better.
My shoddy backgrounds on full display once again.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Mermaid tickle fight! Their names are Branch (green) and Noodle (yellow)

Linework.
I’m happy with Branch’s pose but i think Noodle being added as an improvisation detracted from her posing a bit.

I like the colours on this, though as with all my backgrounds it’s lacking some depth.

A gorgon witch. The idea for this one came from a very silly conversation with friends. i thought about it too long and it sounded so fun i decided to try it out.

Testing out the idea of python hair. I was also testing the idea of an eye design on the blindfold, but i decided it looked better without

The outfit sketch. I know very little about goth fashion, but a friend of mine had a lot of helpful suggestions

Finished drawing! This was quite a bit of work. I spent over an hour just shading the snakes.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

More fanart. Dizzy from guilty gear. Xrd dizzy is a favourite of mine to play, though, once again, i’m dreadful at her. Strive dizzy i can’t play at all.

I was a little nervous about this pose, i’d tried doing someone hurled up like this before and really struggled

Dizzy has a really fun colour palette.
I think i could have painted the ice better but i still like how it looks.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Zavashnira, the red fairy (or Zira for short). She is cursed with wild magic, and keeping it restrained has worn her mind down to threads.

I doodled this one on a whim but i like it enough to start a larger sketch out of it

Trying to get the structure of the wings right.
Their shape and the shape of her scales is inspired by split gill fungus.

Drawing #1
I had a lot of fun doing the lines in her scales and wings

Drawing #2
I tried to do a more interesting pose with this one. Not sure how well it worked.
Wings are better realised at least!

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Fan art this time. Versusia from granblue fantasy versus rising. I don’t actually play this character and i am trash at fighting her, but i find her art really striking. Not much to add on the design front! I kind of just did this one, minimal doodling required.

011

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Keshlyn the Gardener. He is something called a sovereign vessel, a being that plays host to a powerful spell.

Portrait doodle to give myself reference for his face

Finished painting!
I only started doing backgrounds very recently, so i tend to be very slack with them.

010

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Kabby of the listening folk. She is the eldest member of the coven. Her heart has many scars, and as a witch’s body is strongly influenced by their mind, these scars appear as deformities in her body.

Design doodles for kabby.
Her arms and claws ended up a little less striking in the finished drawing, and i’d like to bring that back a bit in subsequent illustrations.

This was the first member of the coven i drew, and one of the first times i decided to try hatching and cross hatching.

necromancychant @necromancychant.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Sunotos, a witch of the listening folk. He is unusually solitary for one of his kind, preferring the company of animals to the other coven members.

Sketching pet ideas. The bottom is meant to be draconic, while the top is a sort of snaky bilby
