The primary thing I wanted to do was make the card work more like it does in the anime. the IRL version of this card only forces dragons into defense mode, so I instead have it banish all dragons, while having their effects negated to account for dragons that want to be banished. Then instead of summoning the card to the field, I opted for it summoning a token that works like it did in the anime, this way the card doesn't get destroyed from getting attacked but also can summon multiple tokens creating a solid wall. The last part was deciding on how to resolve removal effects, which I had decided the optimal thing to do was to have them sent to the graveyard if the opponent removes it, but as the player using the card, you can summon dragons to the field which "can" be useful if played right, but overall can hurt yourself so you have to be strategic if you want to remove it.

For the design, OG Dragon capture jar was already fantastic, so I just expanded on its design, giving it folded in wings and a tail. Also added energy leaking from its mouth and a more dramatic looking energy coming from the opening to give it a more powerful feel, trying to sell the idea that this is the bane of all dragons. If I end up making an Ultimate Dragon Piper to go with this, I'll likely try to make it work in tandem with the Jar like how they were used in the anime.

So, unrelated to my Aile archetype, I had an idea to make a retrain of Dragon Capture Jar to make it more like its anime counterpart. I had always liked the look of the card but was bummed by how lame it was IRL, which lead to this design.

Celebrating by birthday with renewing my Vehicle registration and going to work.... 🫠

I took a few more liberties with Judgement hand's design, adding magical tattoos on the arm matching the symbols on the band. If this was done in a game or in the anime, I imagine this would be how the card would look on the field, but when equipped to a monster, the gold arm would vanish leaving the god band to attach to the equipped monster and applying the tattoos on its arm. The effect is a bit wordy, but I knew I wanted a Nibiru like activation and an effect that let it equip itself to any monster on the field, giving a negative effect to the opponent and a positive effect to yourself, depending on how you wish to "judge" your opponent.

The judgement hand is an artifact that the people of the land of Aile tell tales of. Passing judgement on the actions of those who try to claim it. Those who prove worthy gain the great power it wields, while those who it deems guilty, lose their arm to the golden band to become the new judgement hand. My design for Judgement Hand takes some inspiration links arm from Tears of the Kingdom, more or less changing the equipped monster's arm in a similar fashion to that game.

Another obscure old normal monster that for some reason I thought was a neat idea that just needed a good effect. I came up with an effect that activates like Nibiru, then lets you pass judgement on your opponent through its equipping effect.

Wukong heirloom's first design details was the Dragon Signa, a pair of dragons with gold heads, energy bodies, golden tail tips and gold orbs in each of their hands, reminiscent of Chinese "dragon's pearls", followed by gold and energy markings on helm, complete with a golden band referencing the one Wukong wore in Journey to the West. From there I added some design aspects I like. detached sleeves, an asymmetric wrap around the waist. Originally was going to have boots but knowing wukong, having something closer to greaves made more sense. From there I gave him his classic asymmetrical pauldrons and keeping with the design philosophy of the heirloom skins, gave him a cropped shirt to show off his abs. I wanted to represent a beard but couldn't give him actual hair, so I went with an energy beard. the tail was going to be basically the same but opted to make it more part of the body in the end. the last part I wanted to do was to make the energy from the staff unique. Wukong's skins don't really explore in ways to really change up his staff so I wanted to address that.

The Warframe Heirloom skins have been some of the most visually stunning skins the game has crated and I had been wanting to design one for Wukong. It's taken a while but I finally got around to drawing it.

Bunny girl with red hair and a blonde streak in the braid in her bangs. The weapon was me playing around with the design of a sai though kinda gives off more of a ritual dagger vibe. While drawing I came up with an idea of her being able to shoot "energy arrows" from her hand, though I'm trying to decide a lot of aspects of the character (they're still a bit WIP). they're finished enough to do something fun like this for easter at the very least.

Happy Easter! Last time I drew a bunny girl was when I did my year of the rabbit drawing challenge and wanted to make one for easter, this time using an OC I've been working on. She's not exactly in the spirit of Easter but that's just part of her charm imo 😎 #digitalart #OC #OCart #bunnygirl

the designs on the horn are based on another card that I'll be adding to the set called Judgement Hand. it features a gold band on its arm that I felt could work as a sort of magic script for different cards. The effect of the card tries to take the classic effect of horn of the unicorn and give it a slight tweak for general use (returning it to your hand during your main phase instead of making it the card you draw next as an easy buff), then an added effect if the card is equipped to an Aile monster, something I plan on most of the equip spells for this archetype to share. As expected this version of Horn of the Unicorn goes with my Feral Imp of Aile as far as the archetype goes.

One of many equip cards for my Aile Archetype. The core idea is to make the archetype like a Legend of Zelda style set, with core mechanics around tributes and equipment. First Equipment to show off is a retrain of Horn of the Unicorn.
#yugioh #yugiohtcg #YuGiOhMasterDuel #fanart #digitalart

Feral Imp's overall design is pretty basic which let me get creative. decided to give him thicker fur on his body for a little extra detail and hints of fur on his ears. The glowing horn is a hint toward his primary effect that lets him add a horn card to your hand. Other than that, rest of his design is basically the same as classic feral imp. And unlike recent "feral imp" related cards making him a reptile, I decided to keep his classic Fiend type. Added Union since it felt like it made sense with the new equipping effect. Wasn't sure if it *needed* the union type to equip itself but figured it wouldn't hurt.

This feral imp in the Aile lore is unique among the feral imps. Helping out the Little Swordsman of Aile by selling him items that will aid him in his journey, much like hidden merchants from the original Legend of Zelda game, hidden in a cave away from its brethren who serve the dark lord. He will trade horns for valuable items, maybe even some items from his private collection should you give him something valuable.

One of my favorite monsters from Yugi's deck that keeps dodging Yugi deck support, Feral Imp seems to keep getting the short end of the stick, so I added him with an effect that calls back to his relation to horn of the unicorn in the anime.

As mentioned a few times before, I'm not a balance guy, nor do I know what is considered "good" in the modern game, but I do know I want to keep as much of the spirit of the OG card in there as possible, so unfortunately I did need to keep the tribute mechanic, but seeing as this is supposed to be the "hero", I shifted the idea from "taking an allies power" to "borrowing an allies power", which is where I got the idea of returning a monster used as a tribute back to the field. I may redo the effects in the future if I end up not being too happy with it, especially the new attribute effect. I have a rough idea of what I'd like to do with it but don't know if it will make sense as I make more cards. Also made him a tuner for the future boss monsters. Idea is to make it Legend of Zelda inspired, with a Link, Zelda and Ganon boss monster using different Extra deck card types for each.

I ended up changing the design of Little Swordsman a bit compared to the OG. Added pants and an undershirt with a blue line to add a defining feature to his honestly very plane outfit. I knew he had a sort of headband looking thing under his hood, so I added a sort of gold headband to give him something to help stand out a bit more. The sword too is basically just his OG sword with some blue gems added to it to make it look a bit more flashy (though it's more like the starting sword Link gets in Ocarina of Time). Background is a bit of a teaser for the Archetypes field card (Current working name is "Kingdom of Aile").

After drawing some Yugioh card designs, I started thinking about full archetypes and the one I really wanted to make was for my childhood favorite, Little Swordsman of Alie. Expect a bunch of old monsters being added to the "Alie" archetype.

The design for this ended up being a mutated version of the Komory Bat more than the infested Osprey side of things, Wanted to try and make the one wing more like the robotic wing but couldn't decide on how to make it work, so instead I decided to keep the matching wings and make the tail look something like a mirrored wing with more defined shapes. The eyes I had reflect the "eyes" on the Mutalist Osprey while sort of stretching the features of its head down the top half of its body. The ears I decided to push back to the middle section of the top portion to give a sort of extended skull like feel.

Honestly my preferred color scheme for this one, feel like it works better for the Infested as well as shows off the lights on its body better. Overall I'd be curious if it'd be possible to make a Sentinel look similar to this in game since they do have accessories that can replicate a lot of this design. might take another swing at this design drawing from sentinel accessory references to bridge the infested and dream eater designs better.

For this fusion, I was easily decide the Komory Bat and Mutalist Osprey, but everything else for this was a challenge. From deciding the name to the actual design. Pretty happy with the end result but might remake it in the future.

Project: White Moon Ideal Subjects: Doctors, Surgeons and medical students high priority. Subjects showing a high degree of sympathy or empathy should be restricted to working on units currently in service. Description: Subjects tied to this project have light modifications focused on their eyes and mental capabilities, allowing for more accurate damage/abnormality searches than even a full body scan would allow. By linking up with a Moon Drive infused Staff, subject can control nano bots within drive to repair damage and even fight infections and illness while also being able to link with subjects eye modifications to give them a video feed from the view of the nano bots. Offensive capabilities similarly can be used to hinder an enemies body, causing microscopic damage, perfect for discrete assassination.

Here we have my Cyberpunk White Mage to complement the Black Mage I drew before. This was the one that got me really wanting to draw these. Using nanomachines like microscopic surgeons to fix injuries felt like a great way to bridge tech and magic.

This was the Warframe enemy that honestly got me to come up with the idea of fusing them with Heartless and in turn making KH/WF fusions. The yellow eyes from the Lancer and most other helmeted Grineer reminded me of heartess's defining yellow eyes. Lancers are pretty common Grineer and while Armored Knights aren't exactly common, they're known as one of the two forms used in the 1000 heartless fight in KH2, making both sort of represent fodder enemies for the player. The design sort of takes the Lancer and makes them more knight like, trading their legs for spikes like the armored knights.

Despite doing some recent Kingdom Hearts x Warframe fusions recently, it has been ages since I've last drawn a Grineer/Heartless. This one fuses the Armored Knight (KH) with a Lancer (WF) to make the Armored Lancer.

A fusion card of Crab Turtle and Little Swordsman of Aile. Taking the sort of awkward numbers from crab turtle, Little Swordsman's effect, adding a modern protection effect due to the expensive nature of crab turtle being added to the deck and a piercing effect I feel like a modern Crab Turtle Retrain would have to make this card.

Little Swordsman of Aile wearing armor based around Crab Turtle. the shield is Crab Turtle's shell, the sword has been replaced with a its claw, the eye has been placed in a metal ornament on Little Swordman's hood, the other claw has been turned into a bracer and the legs have been made into shin guards and claws on the boots to help him retain his footing when being punished back.

More stand alone Little Swordsman of Aile support featuring another forgotten card, Crab Turtle. I'm not exactly a balance guy (especially modern yugioh balance), but I think I got a good concept together.

Dowil- the Surreal pokemon Type: Flying Ability: Color Change Dowli are known for their abstract hunting method. They hid in a system of burrows then pop out in front of prey, paralyzing them with an intense stare. Despite hunting in burrows, they make their home in high up trees, preferring trees that have odd markings or shapes over traditional ones. Surregma- the Surreal pokemon Type: Flying/Psychic Ability: Protean The antenna like feathers on its head are used to detect the presence of prey, sending subliminal messages to their minds to lure them in. staring at the eye pattern on its body for too long will cause you to hallucinate and see abstract forms. The design of Dowli and Surregma are based on the burrowing owl and a mix of the great grey owl/ the long-eared owl respectively. Dowil sports a melted clock pattern on its back and antenna like feathers that are a reference to dali's mustache. its wings are made to look like an abstract hand. Surregma meanwhile has darker colors and a more abstract form. having two sets of wings, an upper set with a hole in the center matching its dark grey colors and an under wing that is vibrant and colorful like a sunset. the eye pattern on its stomach has a melting pupil that resembles a tear and the antenna on its head have grown larger and glow with psychic energy.

With the large presence of Salvador Dali in Florida due to his museum being located in St. Petersburg, I knew I wanted a pokemon based on him, problem was coming up with something that fit. Hope this design does him justice.

Barkadet- The Floating Dog pokemon Type: Flying/Normal Ability: Levitate This proud pokemon can be seen practicing gliding in the wild using the flaps under its ears to steer itself. It stores air in sacks in its legs to help it float. While being quick in the air, this pokemon gets tired easily when on the ground. Pitvenger- The Bomber Dog pokemon Type: Flying/Steel Ability Speed Boost This pokemon is a popular choice for air drops and air force use. The flaps on it's head have become wings to give it the ability to maintain true flight. They can be seen flying in packs, dive bombing targets using strong flying type attacks.

For my regional dog pokemon I went with a pretty odd combination. french bulldogs and pitbull breeds are some very common breeds I've seen in Florida and Florida has a pretty deep history with the air force, so I combined those themes.

Spinibur - the spikey plant pokemon Type: Grass Ability: iron barbs Spinbur are a wide spread species throughout the Flocua Region. it uses the spikes on its vine like arms and head to protect itself from predators. Arispur- the spikey plant pokemon Type: Grass/Ground Ability: Seed spread: scatters spikey seeds at the feet of the opposing team when pokemon takes damage from physical moves. seeds latch onto the opposing team casing the leach seed status effect. While still used for protection, the spikey seeds on Arispurs arms are also used as a way to spread their numbers. sticking to any migrating creature to carry the seeds long distances, eventually becoming a new Spinibur.

Time for a regional plant pokemon. to me, no plant says Florida quite like the Sandspur weed. I mean not THE plant, but the one I'm not using for other ideas already at least😐
One of my earliest designs for the region and one I may rework.

Gym Leader: Captain Halyard Gym Type: Water Plunder Badge: Pokemon up to lvl 20 obey and gain minor xp share (can share xp with half your team) Pokemon: Colcrab, Flocuian Magikarp, Taabander Rematch: Taabander, Flocuian Gyarados, Magiking, UB-Bloom (current WIP Ultra Beast), Grouper pokemon (name WIP), Tangator Captain Halyard is a Pirate performer for the city's stadium that hosts a number of events such as pokemon tournaments, contests, sporting events, concerts and of course, gym battles. The stadium is host to a large statue of the legendary pokemon Blockane, believed to be the source of the regions frequent and powerful hurricanes and was hailed as a symbol of pirates of old. Halyard himself went to school for acting in his younger years but never reached his dream of becoming a movie star. Instead, he took over as the regions gym leader and over the years, worked his way from background character in the cities pirate shows to taking the lead role as pirate captain. reaching middle age, he still yearns to achieve his dream and some days wonders if the time he spend in college was worth it, but is over all content if this is where his journey as an actor ends. He sports a water drop styled beard/goatee, handle bar mustache and blue streaks in his hair, save for a single white streak showing his age.

The First Gym leader in the Tampa stand in city. Captain Halyard (named after the rope used to raise and lower a boat's sails) is a Pirate performer who's gym sports a statue of the Legendary pokemon, Blockane.

"Hello, my name is Professor Mangrove. I research Status effects and human impact on pokemon habitats here in the Flocua Region. The region was and is STILL heavily reshaped by humans, which for some reason has caused the range of pokemon status effects to expand to every type, some of which having levels of severity. While studying this subject is my main focus, my primary concern right now is the rise of what I've dubbed "Red Tide Pokemon", a strange effect that seems enrage and empower pokemon, even causing some to take on new regional forms. My partner pokemon Bulbasaur can recreate a wide range of status effects, but what I need is to send someone into the field to study these effects first hand."

Meet Professor Mangrove, the Flocua region's professor and his partner pokemon Bulbasaur. At first he was going to be based on me, then I realized he looked a lot like Walter White and thought that'd be amazing for a Florida region professor. #fakemon #fanart #pokemon #fakemonregion #art #digitalart

Flocuian Grimer- the sludge pokemon. Type: Grass/poison Ability: red tide: grass or water type attacks have a chance to apply a poison status effect to an enemy pokemon Grimer in the region who have adapted to the regions red tide events, feeding on toxic algae and bleached coral. This diet of toxic algae has made grimer in this region more aggressive, attacking and infecting wild pokemon in the area. Flocuian Muk - the sludge pokemon Type: grass/poison Ability: red tide Now a home to its own ecosystem of red algae, a gathering of Muk are capable of producing a localized minor red tide event. It is recommended to let officials know if you see a large group of Muk as it means there may be a red tide event happening nearby.

So, my fakemon region will have ultra beasts, one of which has ties to a real life issue, red tides. In my region, this translates to a sort of strange zombie like infection making red tide pokemon. The prominent ones being grimer and muk.

That's what I try to say. It can be fun to try and make things reflect real life but that doesn't mean unrealistic can't be good or just as fun. I'd argue it can be more fun just cause you can go off the rules of your world rather than the set in stone rules of reality.

Ubodon- the Mega boat pokemon Type: Rock/Electric Ability: Dry Skin A ferocious hunter in ancient times, it used the electricity as a tool to hunt pokemon from its era. Some believe this pokemon exists naturally in unexplored depths of the ocean, but there has been no solid proof of this. Name and inspiration: Ubodon comes from the words U boat and Megalodon. As stated Megalodon teeth are found often in Florida, meanwhile not many other fossils are found in Florida due to most if not all of Florida being under water for most of prehistoric times, making aquatic fossils and coral fossils being mostly the only things to be found in the time of the dinosaurs. U boats on the other hand were used in WW2 in some cases to intercept US water side shipping routes and presumably there would very likely be sunken U boats in the waters around Florida, making them a pretty solid connection. an ancient shark combined with an ancient submarine. Due to the rock typing it made things difficult to have it work under water, so I gave it dry skin to both let it keep water resistances while also kind of referencing shark skin being rough.

First regional fossil pokemon decided after finding out Florida is one of the premier places to find Megalodon teeth. At the moment its a one stage pokemon but could change in the future. added a Wailmer for a size comparison.

Oranole- the Fruit Lizard pokemon These pokemon live in oran berry trees both for food and to hide from predators. New born Oranole stay with their parents until they are old enough to forage for themselves. Tangator- the Fruit gator pokemon While aggressive to those who enter their territory, Tangator are generally great parents. Oranole can be seen riding on the tails of their parents for protection. when threatened, they'll hid under Tangator's leaves, signaling them to go on the offensive. Their names come from Oran berry (the pokemon version of an orange) and anole, one of the most common types of lizards in florida. Tangator meanwhile comes from the words tang and alligator and takes on the design of a real life orange as well as the regions hybridized oran/sitrus berry (which basically an IRL orange). Oranole possesses a lizard dewlap which I made to resemble a sliced orange and leaves on its head, the tip of its tail and where its ears would be. Tangator has longer head and ear leaves as well as a row of leaves down its back like the spins on a gators back, stopping mid way down the tail for the babies to ride on, as well as a citrus flower at the tip of its tail.

What I consider to be the mascot pokemon of my Florida Fakemon region, Oranole is an Anole lizard reminiscent of an oran berry and Tangator, who represents the unique oran/sitrus hybrid berry (name pending) found in the region.
#fakemon #fanart #pokemon #fakemonregion #art #digitalart

The original plan was ice age pokemon since fossils aren't common in Florida, but I think a megalodon has gotta be one since finding out Florida is one of the premier locations for megalodon teeth. Also was thinking a sort of prehistoric corsola 🤔

Project: Black Moon Ideal Subjects: anyone with an aptitude for science, especially those in the field of chemistry, though subjects with a high IQ can suffice. Description: Subject enhanced with Cybernetic arm equipped with Moon Drive given data to create simulated "magic", along with a secondary drive fixed to the head for further capabilities and to allow subject to use mental interface. Hat on subject shows to be effective for concealing subjects identity, further obscured through high collar pauldrons added to uniform. Subject able to use nano bots in Moon Drive to collect materials to be used to fuel its "magic", but can run out if over used without collecting replacement materials. Extra storage space should be prioritized with any future upgrades.

Something I've been wanting to do for a while is convert Final Fantasy jobs into a cyberpunk theme. I tied them into my oc's universe for an idea I hope to use in the future, but for now we'll just say it's FF meets Cyberpunk and leave it at that.
#cyberpunk #FinalFantasy #ocart #digitalart

My stand Hunter's Moon designed to look like its wearing a wolf mask with a gold blade coming out of the top of the head with a slight tweak to the mouth to make it look a bit like a gas mask. the body is made to look like a black vest with blue fur lining the edge. the middle section connecting the two sides of the vest is made to give it a rib cage feel all together as the inside of the stand is hollow and filled a neon energy. the back of the shoulders have a pair of crescent moons similar to the shins, while the claws have been made smaller compared to my previous version, instead having made the arms longer. the Legs sport my spiral patterns I like to use and have heavy boots like you'd see on a gundam. finally the energy I had before was adjusted to be more neon and sporting both green and blue colors. The Additional ability is tying it to the Steel Ball Run universe, giving it a spin related upgrade.

After Working on my dad's stand, I felt the urge to go back and fix up my stand's design and clean up the abilities a bit. Likely the last stand drawing for a bit as I've got other projects I want to work on and I'm starting to hyper fixate .-.

Flocuian Magikarp - the Fish pokemon Type: Water The stormy waters in the Flocuian region have made Magikarp adapt by becoming larger and adapting colors that make it harder for predators to see. Flocuian Gyarados- the Atrocious Pokemon Type: Water/Bug Gyarados in the Flocuian region lost their ability to fly due to the storms that plague the region and instead, adapted leg like spikes to grip the sea floor in rough waters and a tough shell to protect them against debris. Magiking- the Royal Fish pokemon Type: Water/Psychic Magiking uses its speed and sword like nose to hunt prey while using its psychic abilities to hone in on targets for extra precision. The psychic powers of Magiking makes catching it a crowning achievement among fishermen.

Magikarp is one of my favorite water pokemon from gen 1 so for my fakemon region I wanted to try and give him a regional version with an alternate evolution, leading to Magiking. their designs are inspired by tuna, sailfish and shrimp.

Fusion of the Stands Crazy Diamond / Soft and Wet from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure parts 4 and 8 respectively. Stand Name Cold Heart, based on the song Cold Little Heart. When deciding the name instead of taking the name of the stands and combining them, I tried listening to each of the songs and trying to find a song that sounded like a mix of the two songs. After looking at a few songs I finally Settled on Cold Little Heart both cause the feel of the song and how it sort of calls back to both stands.

An idea I've had bouncing around in my head for a while since learning about Jojo's part 8 was fusing Crazy Diamond (my favorite stand) with Soft and Wet. Went with the name Cold heart based on the song cold little heart.
