PROCESS: Knotted // nsfw

download the attached .zip below to get access to the process pack of this piece (12 pngs + 1 gif). 

funny thing about this 'painting' is that there wasn't actually a whole lot of _painting_ going on. i drew the lineart and painted on the finishing touches in much the same way as usual, but when i coloured it i primarily used the lasso tool and the gradient tool (and sometimes a big airbrush...

EARLY ACCESS: Dragon's treasure // nsfw

these two characters, iskandar and renza, are very dear to me; they're one of mine and kubi's oldest otps, and one of our favourites - perhaps the favourite.

this image matches (yet contrasts with) this drawing of ariel and logan because, fun fact: ariel and logan actually started out as alternate universe versions of renza and iskandar. they quickly tur...

April MOTM: Snow & ice monster (painting) // nsfw

you lot wanted to see a snow and ice-themed monster in april - here she is! don't worry, her tongue does not have the 'lick a lamp post in winter' effect. her girlfriend is all about it, that's for sure.

EARLY ACCESS: Knotted // nsfw

FINALLY i have drawn some smut of our vampiric werewolf darlings stubs and rin! i've been meaning to do that for so long but ... so many oc pairings to draw, so little time.

(3$+ patrons will get the process pack for this pic, and also this month's OC spotlight will feature stubs aka luca, in case you're curious to read more about this douchebag pricolici.)

HOW TO MONSTER 01: Basic Monster Anatomy // sfw-ish

i'm excited to present: my first HOW TO MONSTER tutorial! look below to download a .zip containing both the PDF and the individual, full-size pngs of each page. i'm labelling it 'semi-sfw' since it contains some non-sexual nudity.

turns out that discussing the topic of 'basic monster anatomy' in 3-5 pages was more difficult than expected! i quickly realised i needed to narrow it down a bit, so i chose to focus primarily on 'werecreature' anatomy this time, since it's so versatile, applicable t...

March MOTM: Eldritch minotaur concept sketch + design commentary // nsfw-ish

i'm going to be perfectly honest - when i put 'eldritch minotaur' as a poll option, i hadn't thought too hard about how exactly i'd make a minotaur look eldritch. when that monster won the motm poll in question, i had to ask myself - how do you make anything look eldritch, really? what are the defining characteristics of eldritchness? i felt like i knew, inherently, like i had always taken for granted that i knew exactly how to portray the quality of 'eldritch' - and yet it wasn't quite...

EARLY ACCESS: The Witch of Nowhere concept art // sfw

some concept art i did of my partner's character, the witch of nowhere. i did it as part of an assignment, she wrote a snippet that i based the drawing on and i wasn't 'allowed' to ask her for information during the process; plus she intentionally kept the descriptions kind of vague 'cause she wanted to see how i would picture the character. it's not a perfect match with her own mental image of the witch of nowhere, but she liked the picture anyway and so do i! :v

PROCESS: The ruins of old // sfw

21 pngs is a record for me (i find that i usually end up with 15-ish progress shots) and i almost left out a few of the steps between 02-12, but i figured i'd rather keep too many progress shots than too few. this way you can really see how i go about painting the background, which is really the focus of this process pack, jus...

PROCESS: Purrminator // nsfw

look below to download the attached .zip for the process pack of my purrminator drawing.

i started sketching this because i wanted to draw akhuru's actual sphinx form. i've drawn him in the "standard were-creature way" before, with a feline head/face, and as much as i like that aesthetic it makes him look like a regular werecat rather than making it apparent that he's a sphinx, yknow? he's a shap...

OC SPOTLIGHT March: Heka // nsfw

let's start with some lore things. heka lives in a polytheistic underground desert empire inhabited by various monster peoples, a setting that kubi and i have worldbuilt from scratch. he is essentially a death priest. and by that i don't mean he's part of some edgy sinister cult nonsense - he deals with burial rites and mourning ceremonies, different ways to ritually and physically prepare the soul and body for the afterlife, serving gods that are associated with death, burial, embalming, exorci...

March MOTM: Eldritch minotaur (painting) // nsfw

TADAA. 'eldritch minotaur' was the winner of the monster of the month poll for march, and i gotta say i was really happy to deliver on this, since i've actually never drawn any smut involving a minotaur before?! i haven't named either him or his boy yet, but i've concocted a cute little backstory for them - more on that in the upcoming post where i'll show the concept sketch and discuss his design.

EARLY ACCESS: the ruins of old // sfw

i think one of my art goals for 2018 is to practice doing more backgrounds. i plan to do a series of paintings/studies referenced off of some of the literally thousands of photos i've taken in greece and italy, depicting everything from lush landscapes and the sea to street views and ancient ruins. 

many of them will probably feature this particular pairing - isaac and samuel. the tl;dr is that isaac is a sad, repressed gay priest who gets courted by the devil, and once they've lai...

EARLY ACCESS: monster OC lineup, part 1 // sfw
