I know my art output since the end of Messsnower have made it appear like I'm not around. Having internet issues for who know how long.
Mostly working on the huge Steam release update for ELoNR. Might post occasionally while focusing on it but otherwise, will be kinda silent this spring.

A commission gift from Barry for Rudra of a location from the beginning of a first Devil May Cry

I think the biggest hurdle of doing the challenge was less so actually drawing all the stuff and more so trying to keep up upload schedule.
As far as the most interesting part of it goes tho, i would say it's doing all the concept art stuff for ELoNR. Can't wait to get back to work on it
And so Winter comes to an end. Messsnower is done.
This was an interesting challenge to attempt. It was quite tiring and long but i feel like it's pacing have been more reasonable then a month straight of daily art from scratch. So it's quite possible that i'll attempt something similar next Winter
Messsnower Week 12
Some quadrupedal birds, landscape and coins concept art
Messsnower Week 11.
Mostly some little stuff and a tribute to a famous painting by J C Leyendecker but with Casey and Bobby
Messsnower Week 10
Some more concept art stuff and a little fanart for Look Outside
As i'm posting this, all 13 weeks of Messsnower have been done. Might take some time to post them online, knowing my speed, but if you're interested to see them early, they're up on my discord server (link to which can be found on Itchio pages of ELoNR and Casey)
Messsnower Week 9
A Pathologic 2 Fanart and some concept art stuff from work on ELoNR stuff
The first non-messsnower art of 2026 is a commission for @scribblekit.bsky.social and @manedjackal.bsky.social.
Really happy with how the environment shaped out in this one. Always miss working on comms like this after a while
✨After a while, Casey is finally out on steam! ✨
Including a brand new epilogue!
✨I'll apriciate if you'll give it a play and leave a review ✨

For the beginning of the 3rd week of Messsnower, I did a scene of a bunch of OCs of @sitaart.bsky.social hanging out in a cafe
Messsnower Week 8 became another themed one
And the theme?
"What if Oranges had Coffins in them?"
Was quite busy during Messsnower Week 7, so decided to go for more minimalistic arts during it, with them shaping up to be a "week of shadows," as if to say.

Messsnower Week 6 was kinda feeling down due to serious internet troubles, so didn't do much impressive stuff but enjoyed making another trio of Koi Koi card designs

When Kevin sees a giant flying fish, he reaches out to a friend, describing it hoping their art will depict the fish, but he has no luck. He tries drawing it himself, starting a journey of self-discovery. Grab "Muse with Aquamarine Scales" by @nikrouz.bsky.social fenrispublishing.com/product.php?...

Had a bunch of internet issues following my complaining about internet.
So here's the Week 5 of Messsnower.
A gift fanart of the modded darkest dungeon character - matriarch, some concept art and a character design for an edutainment mascot
and Messsnower Week 4 Arts 1 and 3
Messsnower Week 4 Art 2
Some familiar faces
Messsnower Week 3 Arts 2 and 3 are mostly concept and asset art for various projects

Took it easier the rest of the week, so second art is a Fear and Hunger x Night in the Woods x Disco Elysium shitpost and the third is a rendition of mine for another art of Eijin Suzuki, an artist strongly associated with the Japanese City Pop genre
But yeah, another excuse to work on ELoNR's steam release stuff. This won't be the final version of animation, but I think it gives a good idea of what I'm going for here nevertheless
Wanted to spend more time on the first "art" of the messsnower's second week but due to combo of power outages and poor time management, I'll call it an end for this one here.
