My simple turnaround/anatomy construction sheet for my OC, Palette! A calico cat with green eyes in a bluish-purple cape, with a bow made of 2 paintbrushes with light purple tips, and a violet orb. She has on a matching violet collar with a golden bell attached to it. The turnaround has her front, back, and side views in order. Below it are guides to her fur patterns, a sketch guide showing her construction and height relative to how many of her own heads tall she it, a and a couple sketched poses- one of her swinging her sword, and one of her posing with the victory hand symbol and winking
A character portrait I did for the game JRoguePG on Steam! This one is for the female Elementalist class. She has medium-brown skin, hazel eyes, dark blue hair, and a colorful outfit with red, blue, pink and gold details. She holds a prepared fireball in her hand.
An original illustration I did, of a little reaper cat on a colorful, ethereal hill, watching a torrent of souls fly upwards in a winding trail. The sounds are in all different bright rainbow colors, matching the flowers blooming on top of the hill by the reaper’s feet. She wears a dark blue cloak and hood, and her wispy tail, feet and face are made of shadowy dark purple material. Her glowing red eyes pierce through the darkness, but not maliciously. She holds a big scythe with one big blade and one smaller one underneath it.
My fan art of a dessert-themed Hydrapple (Pokemon)! All of Hydrapple’s heads are out, all with different expressions, ranging from happy, to hungry, to loud, to curious. The apple base is decorated like a luxury gourmet candied apple, with layers of caramel and different types of chocolate. There’s also peanuts, sprinkles, whipped cream and apple slices adorning it
Happy #portfolioday!

Honored to have been able to participate in this! I had a lot of fun :D
Thanks to everyone who made this possible, all the cool artists who joined in and everyone who donated!

A creature design I came up with and drew! It looks like a black horse, with curly dark hair for its mane and tail. The hair falls over one set of eyes (it has 3 on each side, one big one, two small ones underneath) on the face but the yellow glow of them still shines through. It has a set of small butterfly-like wings where its ears would be, as well as bigger ones on its actual back, which are black with semi-transparent segments in the middle that are a gradient of blue to green. The creature has dark floof around its neck and legs, all *6* of them. It has 4 normal horse legs, and then two extra arms further up its neck, kinda like velociraptor arms, to bring food up to its mouth. It also has tarantula-like feet and claws instead of hooves.
I had some wild dreams the other night, but in the middle I got a glimpse of a pretty cool creature design that I tried to draw when I woke up! Weird tarantula-butterfly-beetle-horse, lol
Stuck to sketchy pencil for the rendering on this one too and it turned out pretty nice!

My inspo was an imagined scenario where, like a normal dog with a leash, they associate the Charcoal hold item with getting to go outside and play (battling)
So then they steal it and their trainer has to chase them down for it before they set everything ablaze 🤣
LOOK AT THEM!!!
Here’s my little goober for the collab! Tried to push my colors extra on this one :)
Support all the other cool artists here too!

Thanks! I had a lot of fun figuring out little details for each one! :)
They’re based on my real eevees from the games too!
Page 1 of my colored sketches of my Eeeveelution family designs for my own PMD fan story! From left to right, top to bottom: Jubilance (Jubi) - Female Espeon in a pair of Wise Glasses and a crescent moon necklace Turmoil (Momo) - Genderless Umbreon with a tight red ribbon wrapped around their neck, and a bell attached. They seem to be slightly flickering, like they’re MADE of darkness Exhilaration (Exhi) - Male Jolteon with a mischievous grin and two Power Anklets on Bereavement (Bev) - Female Vaporeon with decorative seashell and Mystic Water earrings, looking sad/worried Ire - Male Flareon, much larger in size and stature, with a scarred face, hard glare and a Power Band on his left arm Peace - Female Leafeon with a very friendly expression, flowers adorning her head, a bouquet in her paws and a little backpack with a Miracle Seed for a button Tranquility (Quiet) - Genderless Glaceon with a stoic expression and ice starting to freeze over their left paw and leg
Page 2 of my colored sketches of my Eeeveelution family designs for my own PMD fan story! From left to right: Guildmaster Euphoria (Euphie) - Female Sylveon with a guildmaster’s badge pinned to her neck bow, and a purple mask covering her mouth with a little smile and blue sparkles embroidered on (she has to wear this, or letting loose a Hyper Voice could cause MASSIVE damage) Cocoa Bean (Happiness) (Coco) (Beanie) (Choco) (Sugar Addict) - Female Eevee brimming with energy and excitement, with a cute little bow on her right ear designed to look like a Rare Candy
Finished drawing the eeveelution shopkeeper family in my PMD fan-story world! I designed Euphoria awhile ago, since she’s a guildmaster, but decided I wanted to try a slightly different art style for this stuff in particular and redrew her too! I like how it turned out :)

My doodle of Snom (the pokemon) with icy spikes styled like Cloud Strife’s (Final Fantasy VII) hair, holding Cloud’s sword while sitting menacingly on a wooden stool
I was paid to doodle this, and I have to say, might be one of my greatest masterpieces.

My new turnaround sheet for my character, Palette! A calico cat with green eyes in a bluish-purple cape, violet collar and a bow made up of a purple orb with paint brush tips sticking out of either side, covered in lavender paint. The turnaround sheet has her front, both side, and back views. As well as her fur patterns for front and back when the cape isn’t covering them, her color swatches, character height (roughly 1 and 3/4 of her own heads tall), and a couple extra poses- one of her swinging the sword and holding the shield she uses to change its element, and one of her winking and holding up a peace sign!
A bunch of different doodles expressions for my character, Palette!
Part 1 of 2 of a short little doodle comic, of an exchange between my characters Palette and Prince Nord. Palette: Hey- you’re hurt! How did that happen?! Nord: O-Oh! I…I uh… Nord:…Was practicing combat, and…I…tripped on a rock… Palette: …………. Nord: …(here comes the lecture…) Palette:…heh…
Part 1 of 2 of a short little doodle comic, of an exchange between my characters Palette and Prince Nord. Palette: HAHAHA! Nord: ! He’s looking at her in surprise, because he’s never seen her laugh so genuinely. Palette: What? Something on my face? Nord: N-No! No! Just…relieved you aren’t mad. Palette: Mad? At the rock, maybe. It should watch its back. Nord: Are we adding “rock maneuvers” to my regimen? Palette:…Not the worst idea.
Finished a turnaround and big expression sheet for Palette recently! Plus a little bonus doodle comic :)

Some lineless sketches I did! At the top of the page is Eevee (Pokemon), and the bottom half has Tenna (Deltarune) on the left and a Blob (Monster Sanctuary) on the right!
Some lineless sketch/color studies I did with some very good goobers :)
Forgot I could just slap colors onto a page sometimes

Page of drawn designs for a creature type I call “Potted Golems”! Living creatures made of magical plants that have taken over their vessels. From left to right, top to bottom we have: Standard Teracotta Pot: A golem made from sprouting plants in a cracked terracotta plant pot. The cracks from the creature’s “mouth”, and allow for holes to form soil into hands and extend roots out into feet. “Recycled” Cup: A styrofoam cup with a dandelion planted in it (and a plastic straw), turned into one of these creatures. It can’t crack the cup enough to get more than a single spread of roots out for one foot to hop along on, but it continues on regardless. Flower Basket: A golem made up of a large number of flowers in a woven basket. Instead of soil and roots, its “hands” are stray leaves and petals that have fallen from the flowers it carries, and its “feet” are the bottom ends of the ribbon tied at the bade of its basket handle. Old Potion Bottle: A glass bottle not rinsed of life potion thoroughly enough before being used as a vase, resulting in a potted golem! It is cracked to form its mouth and limbs in a similar way to the Standard Terracotta Pot golem, but instead of soil, it’s filled with and using water, with a lovely flower standing tall over the edge of the bottle. Mini Succulent: A potted golem made of a small succulent plant in a miniature porcelain pot. Its exterior isn’t cracked, but instead its hands are made of floating soil and rocks from the top layer of the pot, and it has feet/eyebrows made of pebbles too.
A sketchy notes page that goes into more detail on the anatomy and history of Potted Golems as a creature! At the very top is a little doodle of a witch watching her potion bottle spring to life as a Potted Golem, with text next to it that says "Potion Bottle breeds were the first ones! A witch in training didn't rinse a used bottle well enough before using it as a vase." Under that is a little drawn diagram of a vase, showing the ratios of Life Potion, Water (or soil), and Soul Host plant needed to assemble a golem. To the left of that is a sketch of the Potion Bottle golem, with arrows and captions pointing to places on its body, stating "If vessel is solid, it will usually crack to allow for limbs" and "Plant health measured by appearance OR eye brightness" Under the assembly diagram is 3 sketches of different plants, with the caption "Any plant works!" above it. The bottom left of the page has sketches of a terracotta pot golem in attack mode, one being watered, and 3 more shapes/plants for golems not featured in the initial artwork. The bottom right shows a terracotta pot golem being "dismantled", as the plant is removed from the old pot to be put into a new basket vessel, the old pot going lifeless and the dirt that was once limbs piling up on the ground. The written text above and below this drawing reads "Remember, the soul IS the PLANT! Golems can be dismantled by removal, OR replanted into new pots for a makeover!"
My initial rough sketches for each of the potted golem varieties I included in my full art, sketches in blue pencil brush! Next to it on my canvas is a zoomed-in picture of the oiriginal pen-and-paper sketch, the very first design for the Potted Golem (a Terracotta pot one)
Posted the finished art page for these designs with yesterday's portfolio day post, but here's a closer look at Potted Golems!
Originally I'd drawn it with pen while out of the house, and later decided I wanted to try and take the concept further.
#art #creaturedesign #oc
An illustration by me in two halves, that can be turned right side up or upside down. The “top” is a white, flower-covered cat on a mossy rock in the middle of a pond, surrounded by a misty forest full of fairies, flowers and wildlife. The “bottom” is a black, crystal-covered cat on a mossy rock in the middle of a pond, surrounded by cyan mushrooms with bioluminescent swirling patterns on their caps, and crystal growths glowing in pink, purple and orange colors inside of a cave.

My illustrated character design, dubbed “The Dancing Dark”. A humanoid being with a “face” and “hair” made of shadows leaking out from their big hat and parts of their snazzy suit. Instead of a tailcoat they have 4 floating panels attached to their waist that resemble butterfly wings. Besides the wide brim hat and suit top, they also have on vertically striped pants, pointy dress shoes, and white gloves (that also show they may have claws as well). Their tie and earrings are designed to look like the chrysalis of a butterfly. They are surrounded by butterfly-like entities that use their wings and antennae to emote like sets of eyes (should I call them Butterfl-eyes?)
My drawing of a shiny Hydrapple (Pokemon), decorated like a giant supreme candied apple! Hydrapple itself is a light green 5-headed serpent with two tails, coming out of a candied apple base that’s usually red, or caramel in the case of the shiny. The main of these heads sits in the middle, with horns and a green apple skewered on one! For my candied Hydrapple, I used the shiny for the caramel base, but gave it different layers of cool coatings/toppings! The top layer is covered in dripping caramel, a white chocolate swirl, and dollops of whipped cream. The second layer is darker caramel with peanut pieces. The third layer is white chocolate with rainbow sprinkles. The fourth layer is smooth milk chocolate. And at the bottom, the caramel returns with apple slices decorating the bottom around the base of the apple!

A Persona 3 fan art illustration I drew at the end of 2025! It shows the dark blue silhouette of the MC in a calm watery background (like Reload), with his lighter blue eye and bright red SEES patch visible. He’s holding his Evoker at the ready as a breeze blows his hair, clothes, and some bright blue flower petals that match him gently across the canvas. Underneath him, where his shadow would be on the floor, is the while silhouette of chains and the face of his persona. The outside of the canvas is framed in the shape of a coffin (like what normal people turn into during the Dark Hour), with black and white tile patterns that slowly fade into black and bright green like the Dark Hour’s full moon. There are carnations on the edge of the tile framing, each one a color representing the different party member characters from the game. Pink, darker blue, scarlet, teal, yellow, white, gray, orange, and a torn dark red one. Light blue petals are scattered around them all, and a glowing blue butterfly rests on the yellow one.
One of the last big pieces I finished in 2025 was this Persona 3 illustration!
Tried a lot of new, experimental stuff, especially on all the symbolism from the game I put in here, but I really like how it turned out!
