Hey! Haven't really been feeling too creative lately, but I'm trying my best to get myself out of this creative slump I'm in atm. I decided to give the Valentines day piece a break to work on somethin else, so heres the current progress for that and then my take on the book trend from a lil bit ago.

I meant to have this piece done by Valentines but yunno, more importantly stuff going on. Anyway, hoping to have her done soon!

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.

Also experimenting with more outfits too! Not that I don't like the designs, but always good to explore more options!

Here's some studies I've been working on! I'm trying not to rely so much on references when I sketch, so doing sketches from imagination has been helping, it's hard but very rewarding

Alright so here's the last thing I got for now, I finished this one up right before Art Fight this year so it was the last personal piece I did
I wanted to design Jazz's outfit when she's running her nightclub, and while I do have her outfit designed for her other work, it needs to be updated

My favorite piece
Rooster Teeth was so important to me for the longest time notably Red Vs Blue, RWBY, Achievement Hunter. I was buying all the dvds as they came out, rocking AH merch through school, first in line to see their Lazer Team, even begging my dad to fly to RTX. They were everything to me

Alright now we're caught up on older pieces, serious time

Here's one I did in honor of Akira Toriyama earlier this year. Dragon Ball has always had such a massive impact on my life, from when I was a child staying up to watch Toonami to even now as I'm pouring countless hours into Sparking Zero.

Jazz tends to get pretty creative when she uses her magic to duplicate herself when she's working, but recently she's been testing it at home...I'm sure Pyrus is happy,

Alright last spice one for now I promise.
Here's this year's easter piece! Couldnt really decide if I liked it cropped or not

Here's one of my favorite's I've done! This is from last Halloween!! Come to think of it...I should still have time to do a halloween piece this year...

Here's one from '22 I was really proud of, one of my first attempts at complex backgrounds! Although lighting n shading was def tricky, I'm still happy w/ it!

And with the kids in bed and the dreaded suit burnt to a crisp, Pyrus was able to cheer her up after all

and keepin with the easter theme heres my easter piece from '23!

Jazz wasnt paying attention and she ordered the wrong sizes for their outfits..so now she gets to perform for the kids instead of Pyrus...yunno I'm sure it all worked out fine

Alright lil break and the last of the Cayde/Zara I have for now.

This one is from '22! One of my first attempts at chibi, honestly still need to work on my chibi style but hey

...oh who am I kidding they'll always find a way to sneak in some fun

And here's the first part to a finished beach set from 2023!
Cayde n Zara finally taking a moment to relax and have a beach day...surely nobody will get any funny ideas right?

Subtle really isn't her strong suit is it...?
Here's Zara's christmas gift to Cayde (after spending all their loot on herself by "accident"...)
this is from '22-early '23!

Alright so here's some of the more suggestive stuff, I never got around to finishing these but maybe one day..
anyway heres Zara n Cayde being the loveable idiots they are

Here's some personal commissions I did for a very close friend! At the time she was streaming n asked me to make her some emotes and a subathon poster! I'm most proud of the animated succubus since it was the first time ive ever attempted something 2D animated, even if it was simple!

Another one from '22! Here's one I did for the Attack on Titan final season, I think it was right when Pt 2 ended! Starting to get a lot better with backgrounds n such! Or well landscapes at least

Here's a really cool piece from '22 of my GTA Online character! I was reeeally into GTAO for a while and I wanted take a lil break from the other characters

and of course I realized AFTER I posted that I forgot the blood and cracks in the mask. Oh well, ya win some ya lose some right?

Here's the last 2021 piece for now, I drew this around the time Sora got announced for Smash! Being able to play as Sora was always a dream of mine, and I put my heart (literally) into this piece!

Here's an old Zara piece from 2021! It was the first piece I did fully rendered with a background!

Alright! So there's all the characters so far!!

As for catching up on art n such, I'm not gonna post everything, but I am definitely going to post the pieces I'm most proud of

Finally here's Roslyn and Cedric
Many lifetimes ago Roslyn was the eldest princess, Cedric was her sole retainer and royal knight. In secret the two shared an intimate relationship for years. Upon being discovered, the two were cursed to reincarnate every time they fell in love with each other again

Next is Cayde, an outlaw who puts on a laid back act, yet he's very dangerous and clever.
During a con he met his partner Zara, a tricky, cunning woman with more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Together the duo drift from town to town, living on the edge robbing and conning whoever they can.

Here's Jazlynn, a cunning and sharp witted angel. Nightclub owner by day, paranormal mercenary and spirit hunter by night
Pyrus is her husband, a kind and gentle devil with immense strength and absolute control of fire and heat
Together they have three children, twins Niko and Morrigan then Gabriel
