My part of an art trade with @linodraw.bsky.social! I think he's winning. #furryart
Painting of Lino, a green lion with a pink mane, lying on the floor while playing on a 3DS. A Poochyena stands next to him, staring at the console screen. A bright light emanates from the device, painting both characters' faces yellow, in stark contrast with the dim ambient lighting.

There are three speech bubbles pointing towards the console with Pokémon themed items: a Poké radar, a Pokéball, and an Oran berry.

#furryart commission for @hukilyanderg.bsky.social, made at... er... after #Fauntastic6! I'm hungry now.
A close-up portrait of Huki, a dragoness. She has a thousand-yard stare, her mouth slightly open, aghast. The background is also a close-up on a shawarma, a Lebanese wrap, with a generous smear of toum leaking suggestively on the filling.

A text covers the bottom half of the painting and reads "I got a serious lust for SHAWARMA" (the word "shawarma" is twice as large as the rest of the text for emphasis).

Commissions done at #Fauntastic6! In order: 1. SheenaKitsune (I keep drawing sushis for her! ò0ó) 2. Lisa, for @tsmurt.bsky.social (why does she have so many cool OCs???) 3. Aelix Schneefloke (so many handsome details to draw aaaaaa ♥)
Watercolor painting for SheenaKitsune. It depicts her character, Sheena, an anthropomorphic fox holding a salmon nigiri with chopsticks. The nigiri appears in the foreground, while Sheena looks at it intensely, tongue out and drooling.Watercolor painting for Tsmurt. It depicts a portrait of her character Lisa, an anthropomorphic fluffy dragon. Lisa is smiling while winking at the viewer. Her hand strikes a V sign in the foreground. The background represents the transgender pride flag.Watercolor and pencils drawing for Aelix Schneefloke. It depicts her character Aelix facing the viewer while floating mid-air, wings and arms spread, legs aligned in such a way that the foremost one hides the other one. Her torso features a large moon crescent with three horizontal stripes inside. Other notable markings include a smaller moon crescent on her forehead, a heart below her left eye, constellations on her arms and legs, and stars sll over her body.

And here is Aqweno's part of the trade! Thanks again, I love it and I'm so very happy you suggested the idea in the first place ♥ He is more active on Instagram, you can find him there: www.instagram.com/aqweno
A painting of Vital (me!) by Aqweno!
The creature looks calm, serene, as it is pouring water from a small amphora. The pose is akin to that of Aquarius.

Finally some portraits made at #Gdakon. (5/5) I like working on small formats for portraits as it's an excellent excuse to hide details that I don't want to spend time on. First: my part of a trade with @aqweno.bsky.social (his part in thread) Second: Commission for @alcatraz.bsky.c #furryart
Painted portrait of Everest, Aqweno's OC!

Process for masking, because I think it looks cool! In order: 1. Details around the edges 2. Finer inner details 3. Rest of the lineart 4. Background After that all thst remains is painting, removing the tape, and filling the background; all of that combined being faster than the masking itself 🫠
Masking of a stylized painting, stage 1:
Masking tape isnplaced all around the canvas to defind the inner frame. Parts of the character that are meant to go out of frame are cut out of those bands, and smaller pieces of tape cover triangular dents on shapes that go along the frame.Masking of a stylized painting, stage 2:
Fine bands of masking tape are placed to cover the lines thst define the character's head (which is where most of the details are, hence why it is done first)Masking of a stylized painting, stage 3:
The rest of the lineart is covered with masking tape as well, using longer, less detailed lines for secondary features (here the body)Masking of a stylized painting, stage 4:
Whatnwill be the background is blocked out with larges bands of masking tape. At this point, the canvas is ready for painting!

Shape-y paintings made for/at #Gdakon (4/5) Those are sooo fun to make but it takes sooo long to do. Check the thread for process pictures! The first two are me experimenting; the third is a commission for @keyne.bsky.social and the fourth for @aurabirb.bsky.social #furryart
A stylized painting of a corvid. It is seen from a side view, its wing obscuring most of its body. Its neck extends downwards, lowering its head as it seems to be looking behind itself.A stylized painting of a fox-like creature. It is constrained within the square frame of the canvas, its body curling all around the shape: its forepaws extend along the bottom edge, partially hiding its head, the chest and belly lay flat against the left edge, the hindlegs and butt rest on the top left corner, and the tail fills the top right corner and part of the right edge.

The creature is slightly frowning, as evident by the semicircle representing the eye.Stylized painting commission for Keyne!
The canvas frames the upper body, which is dramatically bent forward to lean on the bottom edge; the background is almost entirely filled by Keyne's bright mane.

The character looks slightly menacing (he is a menace after all), but he's a sweet bean.A stylized painting commission for Aura!
The painting depicts a quadrupedal creature with bird-like features: feathers, beak, sharp talons, etc.
The creature is assuming a pose not unlike that of a cat sneaking upon an unsuspecting prey... which here is the viewer. In fact, while the body is seen slightly sideways and partially cut off by the frame, the head is decisevely facing the viewer straight on and slightlt breaking out of frame.

Yet another batch of #Gdakon paintings~ (3/5) This time I fell in love with a palette: some dark, desaturated green, and the brightest orange/yellow I could muster. And a blue pointy crit that didn't quite fit in the other batches :3 #furryart
A painting of an unspecified creature with a pointy snout. It's sitting in a corner of the painting with a neutral expression, looking besides tve viewer.
The background is made of oblique stripes: dark green, then pink, then orange, then yellow, and are reflected in the creature's lighting/shadowing.Painting of a similarly ambiguous species-wise creature, and just as pointy. It is laying on its belly, head propped up to look at a small foldable device it holds in its hands (it's honestly just a chonky DS).
Its face basks in the small screen's light, that emanates a stylized cone of warm orange and yellow light, covering the almost completely covered green background.A painting where you can see Vital's head emerging from a dark green background, as if hiding in a shadow. Viral is pulling a corner of the painting with its teeth and munching on it, revealing a bright orange and yellow underlayer that irradiates its face. The creature exhibits a blank, diverging stare as it comsumes the scrumptious paper.

A few words next to its head echo the action: "Munch munch munch"Another ambiguous pointy-snouted creature. This one is blue and has visible cyan geometrics on its body.
It's lying flat on the ground, arms extended forward, and harbors an angry stare. It might look like it would have just tripped and is thus expressing discontentment towards this predicament.

More paintings made for #Gdakon! (2/5) These correspond to me trying different styles/techniques/approaches than what I'm used to, with mixed results. #furryart
A watercolor painting of a maned wolf with a thousand yards stare, bags under its eyes, sitting aloof. A text above it reads "What a week..."A drawing of an unspecified creature, lying on its belly and staring at the viewer with stars in its eyes but frowning very intensely. The whole critter is pink and in front of an abstract yellow and white background.A mixed media painting (watercolor, ink, pens and pencils) of a small black creature of an unclear species, mouth and eyes wide open, as if in the middle of screaming its lungs out. The lower part of its body is indistinguishible from the floor, while its upper body is clearly detached from the abstract pink and red sky. A large pale yellow moon further highlights the creature's head.
It doesn't howl. It SCREAMS.A drawing of a black cat, represent with a mix of sharp and round geometric shapes. Its mouth is wide open and tail straight up.
It's apparently meowing, but the text representing the sound is instead "HONK", written in large letters above the cat.
A small speech bubble points out of frame, with the text "wat" in small caps.

Some small paintings (74x74mm) made for #Gdakon (1/5) Mostly they were excuses to test my new carbazole violet watercolor (whatever "carbazole" means!) #furryart
Watercolor painting of small round green cat with antennae (a "Glorp") floating in empty space (depicted as a warm purple gradient)A watercolor painting of a black cat, seemingly in front or as the center of a stylized black hole. The backgrouns is a dark purple sprinkled with stars that gets heavily distorted the closer it gets to the black how shape, as if the cat itself was the source of the spatial distortion.Commission for Alcatraz; watercolor painting depicting a dragon breathing a stylized red and pink fire.Watercolor painting of an owlbear-like creature, eyes closed in contentment as it holds a cup of hot beverage.

@deuvir.gay's gremlin, Angstrom ⚡, striking a wicked pose for a wicked custom t-shirt! What? You want your own custom t-shirt too? And you'd like to pick it up at #Fauntastic?? How lucky! There is still ONE (1) week left to apply! See you at vital.monster/cmyshirts ❤ #furryart #ych #commission
Angstrom, a gremlin (as in the species from Spiral Knight, not the general idea of a gremlin, which actually does apply to him too). He is striking an "evil laugh" pose: slightly leaning backwards, hands raised at waist height, chin up.

Notable features he harbors are: an oversized long jacket floating in the wind (even though there is none), a robotic glove (it is probably evil), and a wide grin showing all his pointy teeth (he got lots of 'em).

The original colors of the character are not observed, and are instead replaced with a cyan camaïeu, with contrasting touches of electric yellow, reminiscing of Angstrom's electricity affinity.
The background is a flat, deep magenta, with a white halftone pattern contouring the character.

Actually the goobers invited themselves to a ✮STAMP RALLYE✮ at #Fauntastic 6th Edition! (3rd - 7th April) I'll have a ton of them, and I really hope y'all will show up to get them or else! ò-ó
A card featuring three Vital Gremlins, floating against a purply starry background (aka Space).

The top of the card reads "FAUN 6" (the convention the card will be found at).
An insert fisplays the artist's name: "Vital monster"
The bottom of the card links their socials:
- "Telegram: t.me/vitalmonster"
- "Bsky: vital.monster"

The illustration depicts a pink gremlin on the foreground, floating horizontally with its hands reaching through the card frame. Its mouth is open in a wide, mischievous grin, the size of which is only rivaled by its massive brows.

Behind it is a yellow gremlin that gnaws at the card frame, making several dents in it, the rest of its body limping downwards, its back turned to the viewer. Despite that, iIts facial expression is visible as it's hanging and is remarkable by the extreme lack of intelligence that it conveys.

The last gremlin, which by the way is blue, lies just a little further behind, in a terrible predicament as it appears to have rammed through a glowing star, and in so doing got its head through and solidly stuck. It's fully upside down, and expanding great efforts to liberate itself, pushing with all its hands, paws and might against the celestial body, comically deforming its head but alas! to no avail.

Poof, three goobers to decorate my future booth at #Gdakon and #Fauntastic. You wouldn't believe how long it takes to cut out 1mm carboard while following precise shapes. My fingies hurt. #furryart
Three printed cutouts of gremlin Vital hanged to a metal grid; they are meant as decorations.

The first gremlin is pink, floating horizontally with its hands reaching forwards; mouth open in a wide mischievous grin, the size of which is only rivaled by the massive brows.

The second gremlin is yellow, and gnaws at a bar of the grid, the rest of its body limping downwards, its back turned to the viewer. Despite that, iIts facial expression is visible as it's hanging and is remarkable by the extreme lack of intelligence that it conveys.

The third gremlin is blue, and in a terrible predicament as it appears to have rammed through a glowing star, and in so doing got irs head through and solidly stuck. It's fully upside down, and expanding great efforts to unstuck itself, pushing with all its might, hands and paws against the celestial body, comically deforming its head but alas! to no avail.

Do you like sticking faces on appliances? I do. And I find it hilarious. #furryart or #art in general I guess!
A sticker sheet presenting a collection of 12 stickers, each being composed of two eyes and a set of teeth to represent silly expressions.

The title reads: "Mimic Stickers - by Vital ❤"
The different stickers in the collection are:
- "Screm" (mouth agape with eyes partially overlapping it)
- "Smert" (diverging eyes with upper teeth biting the lower lip)
- "Sedness" (just comically teary eyes and a sad expression)
- "Dred" (eyes gazing at the void, mouth slightly open and large bags under the eyes)
- "Blep" (mean-looking eyes and nonchalantly blowing rasperries, tongue out)
- "Ded" (mouth agape and wide open eyes with spirals instead of pupils)
- "Hehe" ("smiling" eyes with just a couple of teeth showing)
- "Not hehe" (frowned eyes, looking not amused)
- "Penik!" (big eyes with small pupils, mouth wide open and tongue out as if cartoonishly screaming)
- "Smeil" (vertical pupils and menacing grin showing all teeth)
- "Merp" (small eyes and pinched cheeks around small teeth, looking dumb)
- "Self-explanatory" (this is a "uwu" face, bug with eyes wide open and each pupil having a "U" shape. It's indeed less self-explanatory in text form)

I'm thinking of making tees. I'll make a few for myself, and if I'm happy with the result, I'll take pre-orders for custom orders at the cons I can get a booth at! Six palettes, as in the examples, but with your gremlin instead of me. Would you be interested? 💃 #furryart
Six pictures with the same design, but using different palettes. Each shows a stylized anthropomorphic fox-like critter in the middle of a stride. The background of each section is a solid color with a halftone pattern diffusing around the character.

From left to right and top to bottom, the pictures use the palettes:
1. Cyan character on magenta background
2. Magenta character on yellow background
3. Yellow character on cyan background
4. Cyan character on dark background
5. Magenta character on dark background
6. Yellow character on dark background

More of these pointy crits made at #cesfur, though I've kept these ones 'cause I like them. #furryart
Watercolor and ink drawing of an anthropomorphic critter from an unidentified species. Prominent features are large cartoonish eyes, a pointy snout, no apparent mouth, and a notched ear.

The character is sitting on the ground, hands on the floor and one knee up, assuming a relaxed pose. Small bandaids are applied on them: one on the snout, another on a knee, and the last one on the wrist.

Parts of the lineart on the character appears to have been torn, giving a washed out effect.

The background is a wavy pattern consisting of three colors: red/pink, yellow, and blue, reminiscent of the pansexual pride flag.Watercolor and ink drawing of an anthropomorphic critter from an unidentified species. They are standing, turning their back to the viewer while apparently spraying paint on an imaginary wall. A crude heart shape appears besides the hand holding the spray can.

The background represents the pansexual pride flag, each color area forming a dripping pattern on the one below it.

I survived my second day at #NFC2025 to tell the tale with this beautifully crafted #furryart.
A loosely defined comic depicting how Vital occupied his day on the second day of #NFC2025. It consists of six panels showing a chibi Vital in the same T pose, while the decor changes.

Title: "Vital's 2nd day at NFC"
Panel 1: "Showered!" (sparkles around Vital indicated that he is, indeed, clean)
Panel 2: "Threw money at great artists" (another character assuming a T pose and holding a pen, gets smothered by coins and bills being thrown to their face)
Panel 3: "Went to a meetup and discussed with lovely people while being terrified" (Vital is visibly trembling and sweating, while standing up in front of three anthro characters)
Panel 4: "Silly doodles" (Vital holding a pen in front of a billboard with childish doodles)
Panel 5: "Threw more money at more great artists" (Similar to panel 2, but the other character is now lying down in T pose with a huge pile of money covering them up)
Panel 6: "Big eepy after big day pretending to be extravert" (Vital, still in T pose, lying on a bed, his eyes closed, and a single "Z." above him. A thought bubble next to his head states "What a day!")

@skollinou.bsky.social and Lydus, two lovely crits that kept me company while I was chilling at the chill zone. ♥ I guess I should tag this #furryart as well as #NFC2025 but oh boi I will forget it every time.

The light is too dim for good photos, but I'm at it again. Doing very offishul 100% legit con badges at #NFC2025! I'm doing these for fun, if you are here and catch me in a good mood I might make one for you. No promise though!

Draw what you're wearing in 5 min Welp, scratch that, I took 10 or something.
Vital's fursona standing aloof while staring at the viewer, demonstrating what the artist is actually wearing at the time of drawing.

Texts:
"A clean & rested Vital!"
(a line points to the upper body) "My favorite shirt + the tee that happened to be on top of the pile today"
(a line points to the lower body) "Comfy cargo pants"
(a line points to the feet) "Reinforced slippers: +1 DEF (small objects), -1 CHARISMA"
(another line points to the feet) "Socks I grabbed in the dark when I woke up"

I'm stealing @sleepingwoolf.bsky.social's idea and making my own bingo for 2025! Will probably print it so I can keep an eye on it at all time. Hopefully I'll stick to it better than to good resolutions. ùwú
Vital's bingo card for 2025. Each cell is illustrated with a (hopefully) funny doodle picturing Vital's fursona doing the activity (or failing at it in some way).
From left to right and top to bottom. the cells contain the following texts:
1. "gift fanart to 12 artists I like"
2. "learn to play 3 new randos"
3. "make 1 diorama sculpture"
4. "eat more fruits/vegs"
5. "participate in 3 game jams"
6. "learn 10 new vegan recipes"
7. "do at least 150 walkies (~20 minutes walks outside)"
8. "plan 12 dates with my partners"
9. "learn crochet"
10. "draw 20 illustrations I'm proud of"
11. "fix my sleep schedule"
12. "create some OCs"
13. "be a nuisance, a menace, a gremlin, up to no good, a pest, an annoyance" (the text is mostly obscured by a screaming Vital with starry eyes)
14. "interact with people more (online or at conventions)"
15. "finish building my fursuit"
16. "go to 3 amusement parks"
17.  "go climbing regularly"
18. "get 6 colorful clothing items"
19. "clear my games backlog"
20. "attend 3 cons (furry and japan cons excluded)"
21. "attend 3 art workshops"

Here is the proper way to seal a gremlin. No, there is no way to stop the screeching. I'm experimenting with shading a bit. There is room for improvement but I do like the process~ #furryart
Vital screaming with an undecypherable expression. He's fine though, it's his happy face.

He's stuck on a white wall, his arms and lower body covered by large pieces of colored tape (one cyan, one magenta, and one yellow).
