i'm happy to announce that from now on i'll be making exercise sheets to go along with my HOW TO MONSTER tutorials. the purpose of the tutorials is to give you information, ideas, and inspiration--the purpose of the exercise sheets is to get you drawing. they will contain art exercises you can do to get from simply reading the tutorial and thinking about various ideas to actually sketching designs of your own.
these exercise sheets will be 3-5 2020-03-30 11:45:58 +0000 UTC View Post

this exercise sheet goes along with HTM09: monster horns & antlers (which you can find here). it contains 15 exercise suggestions r...

pushing in slowly.
this is officially the TENTH week in a row that i’ve made a weekly piece of art! i’ve been doing this for ten whole weeks already! how about that!!! i’m legit so proud of myself, really pleased with the drawings i’ve made so far, and so excited to keep creating things every week. i already feel like my process is more streamlined, that it’s "easier" for me to create, and i feel like my style has improved? or at least like i’ve become more "sure" o...

here's the process video for march's MOTM painting--download the attached .mov file below!
this all began with the idea that to properly show off the monster's saberteeth i wanted to portray him in profile, mouth partly open, with a stylised 'halo' behind his head to outline his profile and the shape of his fangs. from there i decided to have him bend in over his lover, because ...

i often just like... add little notes to my sketches, to remind future me of the mood or moment or action i want to portray. things like "balls deep" or "rub" or "nudge" or "slam down" and other such elegant, philosophical things.

thanks again to lostmisfits for suggesting a monster with saberteeth! <3
'sabertoothed horror' really was one of those monster of the month design prompts that was just the right amount of vague. it left me with a lot of artistic freedom while also specifying some important characteristics that gave me a sense of direction. it was imprecise enough to inspire me with all the possibilities, but not so imprecise that i got overwhelmed by the many choices.

after doing a few tutorials about various anatomical areas (mouths, noses/muzzles, horns/antlers) i thought it would be fun to change gears a bit and make a guide to a specific 'group' of monsters. HTM10 will be focused on concepting and designing monsters of a given 'category,' whether you want to give them a traditional or unconventional look. for inspiration we'd look at examples ...

this process post is a bit different than normal. i was looking at the video replays for my latest three pieces, trying to choose which one to show you. but it proved difficult to decide, so rather than writing a lot about just one of them, i decided to show you all three videos and just make some brief comments about what i think is the most interesting aspect of each. i hope everyone’s okay with this! <3

it’s not always the case that my monster of the month paintings + sketches feel like they depict moments from the same scenario or scene, but in this case it really looks like the painting was part 1 and this sketch is part 2...!

alternative title: so many fangs. HAH.
based on a motm suggestion made by lostmisfits, who wanted to see a monster with saberteeth! i had lots of fun working on the different details, the ‘organic’ framing, and a colour scheme that’s partly outside my comfort zone—i don’t use bright yellowy greens a lot! of course i always enjoy drawing a big lad with big teeth and a big dick, and i hope y’all like him too <3

are you ever truly ready for a monster tongue? what an existential question. real deep.
i'm having fun doodling pose and composition ideas for my weekly arts! not that filling a few canvases with nsfw sketches is new, per se. but drawing a piece of art every week has me extra keen on experimenting with interesting points of view, a wider variety of poses and activities, and just depicting many different types of sexy moments--ranging from the initial ...

my lad, my bae, my boi, my wholesome hero--iskandar. he's got nothing to do with D&D but he fits right into a lawful good paladin archetype, although he moves into neutral good territory halfway through his tale. long story short he's a rhaajim, aka a shapeshifting dragon person--long story long, well... that'll have to wait for the upcoming march OC spotlight.
also, please note the very important guest appearance of his doggo, bacon.

as requested by both lostmisfits and xan farley, here’s more march & charlie! it ended up being a sequel to ‘lick,’ although i suspect it’s far from over already, and ngl i already have ideas for what could happen next.

coldau requested more nehaneru, and i was all too happy to oblige. well, they actually said nehaneru *and* his partner, wansa—but i ended up doing a nehaneru solo thing first because i couldn’t resist illustrating the mental image of him just being an asshole, sitting there expecting to get his cup refilled and his cock sucked.

the whole idea of this motm prompt was that the human should be dominating the monster, so my first order of business was deciding how to portray that. simply put, i figured that literally having her ride him was a good way to illustrate who's metaphorically on top in this power dynamic. i also felt lik...

this motm design was based on a scenario suggested by xan farley, who gave "a human ‘hunting’ their big monster sub" as an example of a human dom/monster sub relationship.
me and kubi have some couples where the more monstrous partner plays the submissive role in the power dynamic (foremost among them, logan and ariel) and i do love play hunting scenarios. but i don’t know if i’ve ever combined the two before, because when i do play hu...

this is the first oc spotlight that takes place in a different setting from the 'gods among us' universe or the desert empire, although it exists in the same world as the latter. it's an underground city in the heart of a huge system of caves, full of lush jungle, fluorescent mushrooms, carved temples, crystals that harbour a strange power, an underground harbour, and refugee monster people who were hunted topside simply for the crime of existing.
this jungle city is kubi's creation, an...
