rough digital sketch of a man without a shirt leaning against a wall with a smirk on his face, one eyebrow cocked. A large fluffy cat is standing proudly on his shoulders.
#ArtWIP - Ilya and Koshka 2
"She saw you from across the room and liked your vibe."
alternatively titled: "You come here ofte- [ear piercing meow]"
My favorite of the bunch i have drawn so far.
#MicahsOCs #OCSky #ArtSky
rough digital sketch of a man and cat sleeping in bed. The cat is curled up right next to the man's head, who has his face smushed into a pillow.
#ArtWIP - Ilya and Koshka 3
Sleeping.
#MicahsOCs #OCSky #ArtSky
digital art, an art nouveau inspired poster depicting a femme person wearing a dark red body suit, stiletto heels and sheer tights. They sit on a turned around chair looking at the viewer with a cocked head as if to say "come over here." They hold a rose in their hand and more are on the ground between their legs an propped up by the art nouveau border. Two images of roses are at the bottom, either side of text reading: "Saint Valentin Mosaic. 14 Février, 20:00" (translation from french: "St Valentine Mosaic. February 14th, 20:00").
the same image as before but with a different color palette. The previous was mostly dark red with rich gold accents, this one is pinker and lighter.
#PinUp - Valentine's Day
An advertisement pin-up poster for Le Parloir for a private show by Mosaic.
Very intimate atmosphere.
Two versions because I like them both a lot.

rough digital sketch of a man holding a large cat in his arms while he gives her a kiss on the top of the head, as the cat presses her head into his face.
#ArtWIP - Ilya and Koshka 2
Another one.
#MicahsOCs #OCSky #ArtSky
rough digital sketch, a man in a wheelchair next to a counter pets a cat that has weaseled her way under the hand he was resting on the counter top.
#ArtWIP - Ilya and Koshka
We'll see if I finish this or not since I tend not to finish WIPs I share but I do want to share this one.
#MicahsOCs #OCSky #ArtSky
rough digital sketch of a man with a narrow face and a neutral expression.
#ArtWIP - Ilya
Ever since I did that expression sheet and figured out a turn around for him, Ilya's face is just immediately recognizable.
#OCSky #MicahsOCs
#ArtSky - Tea Fae
The second redesign of Imber's creation, again to fit into Ilya's world as an entity of some sort.
Imber suggested that the creature uses the masks to lure prey (people) in to kill them and I absolutely adore the idea. So not it does that :)
#OCSky #MicahsOCs #CreatureDesign
#ArtSky - Crystal Jellyfish
I redesigned the trade Imber did for me to fit in Ilya's world.
This is now some poor sod who stumbled through a dimensional rift and reaped the consequences of it.
Absolutely love this freaky creature.

#ArtWIP - Kyriakos
little update on the body shapes since @catatante.bsky.social suggested hairless baboons as references.
#ArtSky #OCSky #CharacterDesign #MicahsOCs
digital sketch, two mythological sphinx with a speculative biology twist to them (as realistic as possible for a fantasy creature). Top shows Kyriakos, bottom shows a normal sphinx, in multiple poses: sitting, standing side view, snarling face and side view face. In comparison to the normal sphinx, Kyri is smaller, skinnier with thinner limbs and the posture of a nervous whippet. The normal sphinx, while equally uncanny due to a smooth blend of human and lion features, is much sturdier and stronger looking. Kyri's mane is almost non-existent, the normal sphinx has long hair and a respectably fluffy tail tip.
#ArtWIP - Kyriakos
Was inspired by @rislamb's manticore designs so Kyri is getting a less cute design.
Still have to figure out the body and legs a bit but the rest I like.
They're supposed to look like bad mash-ups of lions and humans.
More info in replies and alt text.

digital illustration, a trilobite beetle inspired insect alien. He has the body plan and posture of a praying mantis, the front most of his six arms folded to his chest as he opens his mandibles in a hiss in the vague direction of the viewer. He is mostly brown with bright orange at the edges of his carapace.
#CharacterDesign - Flak
Evil insect got pointier.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, a togruta with the body type of a competitive heavy weight lifter wearing a dark body suit with a flowy, sheer, pale pink fabric. She is covered head to toe in gold accessories and jewelry. She holds a red lightsaber in one hand, lightning sparking from the other, as she stares down the viewer with disdain. She looks like she is about to smite you.
#CharacterDesign - Lady Eve
She has gotten meaner but she also looks better so it's a win/win really.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, an Iridonian Zabrak wearing western inspired clothes (trench coat, hat, boots with stir-ups) and carrying a small arsenal of weapons and amunition including multiple knives, swords and a large rifle. He holds a large maul in his hands, electricity sparking around its head.
#CharacterDesign - Flare
He is now the enforcer of the syndicate and so much meaner than before.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, a clone trooper in white armor with burgundy detailing, the colors of the 104th (serving under Jedi Master Plo Koon). He holds his helmet under one arm, a blaster in the other. His face and body language read as "annoyed he has to be here and mad about life in general".
#CharacterDesign - CT-4508 "Vessel"
Vessel got his first full design. Not visible but I do want him to retain his partial heterochromia.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, a black and grey male reptile/human Sith lord wearing dull brown pants with grey-blue detailing. He holds a red lightsaber in one hand, lightning arcing up both his arms. He looks angry.
#CharacterDesign - Skallagrímr
His updated design. The first time he got clothes too.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, a sunset colored femme reptile/human hybrid in an ancient greece inspired dress holding two iridescent glass daggers.
#CharacterDesign - Mosaic
Mosaic's updated design.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #SW:TheCrew
digital illustration, cropped, six portraits of star wars fan characters. Left to right: Mosaic and Skallagarímr (stormerki, an original species, human/lizard people), Vessel (a clone trooper), Flare (iridonian zabrak), Lady Eve (togruta) and Flak (original species, drilophines, a trilobite beetle alien). All six look varying levels of angry or dismayed. None of them look nice or approachable. Flare is posed slightly behind Vessel as if he is influencing him.
#MicahsOCs - Star Wars Crew redesigns
Everyone got new/updated designs, here's a preview.

#MicahsOCs - Expression practice 1
First batch done.
Feel free to suggest more in the comments of the original post. These are amazing for figuring out face shapes.
#ArtSky #OCSky #DigitalArt
digital art, an art nouveau inspired poster depicting a femme person in a sparkly gold dress popping a bottle of champagne held suggestively in front of their crotch. They wear a surprised/shocked but sultry expression as the cork pops with a big spray of champagne while they look at the viewer. The poster is bordered by curved gold filigree, the dark background filled with sparkles and fireworks. Two images of clinking champagne glasses are at the bottom, either side of text reading: "Santé! 31 Décembre - Nous vous souhaitons une bonne année!" (translation from french: "Cheers! December 31st - We wish you a happy new year!").
#PinUp - New Year's Eve
An advertisement pin-up poster for Le Parloir for a burlesque show by Mosaic.
Private after-show for a select guest or two included ;)
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #DigitalArt
digital art, 4 outfit designs for Mosaic (femme dragon/human OC with sunset colored scales). Top left to bottom right: Naked, ancient Greek peplos with a single long sleeve, a simple dark blue dress covering only half their chest, a loose long skirt paired with a revealing top. Most outfits have simple gold jewelry.
digital art, 3 outfits for Mosaic. Top left to bottom right: two peplos without sleeves (one dark blue, one white) both with wheat/laurel decoration, a third instance of the white peplos with a purple himaton worn as a half cloak.
#ConceptArt - Mosaic
I drew these outfits at the start of the year when I did Mosaic's ref sheets but never shared them here.
I want to draw more of these at some point.
#ArtSky #OCSky #MicahsOCs #DigitalArt #OutfitDesign
Artwork 2024 Summary, template by TJ Havoc (linked in replies). Masterpiece of the year: Sketch of Ilya's possessed form, skin peeling off a skeletal form. Monthly artworks (names are OCs): Mosaic's ref sheet; Omen in a burning forest, Fen and the chicken Homing Missile, Ilya holding Koshka, Hellas' ref sheet, Fithír's ref sheet, dragons Fraemir and Skvallir, Kos in his power armor, Ilya and Rakki dancing on Halloween, crying Kyri, Yushka's new design and SC0-U7's ref sheet.
#ArtSummary2025
Genuinely surprised by some of the art I did this year, a lot of which I never shared on here.
Might put all my studies together in a threaded post and do some stand-alones for OC art I still want to share.
#ArtSky #MicahsOCs
colored digital art, two front and two back views of the same humanoid robot standing. It has an astronaut helmet like head with two glowing orange dots for eyes. Its core mechanics are dark grey metal roughly in the shape of a human skeleton, it is partially covered by smooth white plating around the robots pelvis and shoulders. The second view shows additional plating on the thighs and torso, extending like a spine to connect the head to the torso. Its name is given as "Sojourner 2 or SC0-U7".
#RefSheet - SC0-U7
It has acquired a reference!
It also has lore and a backstory, which I will share in more detail on my ToyHouse and Tumblr. (links in replies)
OC pronouns: It/He.
#MicahsOCs #ArtSky #OCSky #DigitalArt #SciFi
digital sketch, a dismembered/broken down schematic of a humanoid robot with a spacesuit helmet-like face. Two front and back views of the robots full body are to the right, one each showing the basic mechanics, the other has smooth plating and a welded chest cage covering some parts as protection/support.
#Sketch - SC0-U7
Version 2, so I guess this is a sort of WIP.
Figuring out how its core mechanics and plating works.

digital sketch, Kyriakos, a scrawny mythological sphinx, laying in a miserable, sobbing heap on the ground.
#Sketch - Kyriakos
Miserable.
#MicahsOCs #ArtSky #OCSky #DigitalArt
digital art, a satyr like figure with some exposed bones and a skeletal tail wearing a colorful skirt made of fabric strips with two big red braids. The figure's hair seems to be made of fabric, is teal and has the same colorful strips incorporated into it.
#ColoredSketch - Yushka
The new design.
Nameless now has not just a name but also clothes.
#ArtSky #OCSky #DigitalArt #MicahsOCs
digital sketch, a satyr like figure floating. He has large goat horns, visible vertebrae all down his back and his legs are partially skeletal. He wears a skirt made of tattered strips of fabric, parts are braided together. Two smaller almost sketches to the left show just the bones and just the skirt superimposed on a basic body.
#ArtWIP - Redesign
Redesigning Nameless. First sketches I've got down so far, really happy with it so far.
#ArtSky #CharacterDesign #OCSky #MicahsOCs
