🇧🇷 Game Dev & Furry VN Writer / Illustrator. Working on things that don't get released.
Torn between a "willemdafoelookingup.gif" and a "Don't look up" joke, so I'll go with the worst one: "If you glare at a glare long enough, it glares back at you." Please laugh.
The next time I have to draw a car I'm putting it out of focus in the back like I'm hinding a character's hands. 🚗struggles aside, this one was surprisingly straight forward once I began. I'm fast approaching the hard artwork, which contains a lake. Water rendering sucks in both 3D and 2D!
*Tumbles out of the dryer* Don't worry, I *did* finish the bedroom in a day! I just didn't post it. Also, I may or may not have forgotten to do the pillows, but that gives me an excuse for a character interaction. Past me is so clever for setting this up. Good job me. #fvn
*Loves wide-angle lenses* Finished a background I prepared in July (This VN's taking forever 💀) I remember being overwhelmed with the classic "Where do I even begin?" issue, and now I managed to shade it in a single day. Let's see if I can do the same to the bedroom tomorrow. #backgroundart
Double backgrounded up on a Sunday afternoon— Some backgrounds have night variants, which I'm less comfortable working on as this example may show, but we chunt on. My background "To Do" spreadsheet is tipping toward mostly green cells, but there's still plenty to do. Progress is being made~
The backgrounds will continue until morale improves. I quite like this one.
The #Maywolf '26 Collab image is now done! Thank you to everyone who participated, all the wolves are looking amazing! You can take a close-up look at the art + see credits at the accompanying video (I styled it after windows movie maker lol): youtu.be/xW8Pr0bOtN8 #furry #maywolf2026 #artcollab
Here's a thing from last week that I forgot to post, enjoy.
Been a minute since I posted, but I've actually done two more artworks for the VN. I'm making good progress. Here's one of them! It's a bit on the simpler side, element wise, which makes it all the harder to make it look 'enticing', but I think it works well enough.
Another artwork down, many left to go. First one I've drawn from the start with the aspect ratio constraint I've setup since the VN is shown in the 'nvl' format. It was challenging to frame many elements while keeping it readable as a 'real' space that might exist. Chairs are hard. #fvn
Another BG done. Large outdoor shots are pretty rough to do, especially if they're mostly natural environments. You can see the major steps I use in my process when making these in the 🧵below. #digitalart #fvn #visualnovel
A bunch of other people did it, and I wasn't going to initially but I decided fuck it, could be fun. I wrote a postmortem for Nat One! If you're curious about the development process or my thoughts now that it's all over, be sure to check it out! c: spirigladier.itch.io/nat-one/devl...
Dissecting a Broken Mind - Nat One Postmortem
When the long working day uptown is over All the subway lines wrap around the world I carry myself up the stairs and pull the covers closer Chasing the dream I might find myself again In 2019, I wrote...

Yet another background. Just don't mind the placeholder coffee shop sign.
Another background. This time inside the station. I'll do a final™ pass on the backgrounds when I export them to the VN to add a few more details like stickers, ads and some characters, hence why some elements are flat blocks for now.
It ain't much, but it's honest work. One of the backgrounds for a thing I'm chipping away at. #vn #visualnovel #fvn
Weee have a thumbnail, courtesy of the infinitely talented @jetmongrel.bsky.social! <3 And with it comes some very, very exciting news...! 👀 Keep an eye out for There's Nothing in the Stars, releasing August 31st!! Resposts appreciated~ #furry #visualnovel #gay #vn #fvn
This is a background I did for a an idea that's been shelved, but I used it to practice some color and shading. It was quite challenging, but I think I learned a thing or two.
Here are two more backgrounds for my FVN. I'll still fuss around with the colors, shading, and add more props, etc, but it's nice to get the 'grunt' part of the work out of the way first. These ones were drawn over a 3D mockup I did in Unity with primitives. #fvn #digitalart
I've tricked my brain into getting the backgrounds done before the characters sprites for my novel and it's been pretty fun. Here's the lines for one of them. This one was done with a photograph of Fiesch Station from Switzerland, where I went to skii once.
First sketches I did during the vn stream for Nat One by @spirigladier.bsky.social and @ailoyeena.bsky.social
