A sketch for dragonbreeder69 of FA! Don't be fooled; he may be made of tar on the inside and held together with bone and metal sheets, but this dragon will still crush you.

A colored sketch of a gigantic tar dragon. He stands on all fours, his slick body held together by metal sheets and bits of bones that are layered over top of him. His head is a skull, with glowing red eyes and bony antlers. His mouth is agape, revealing a long, black tongue. His tail is draped behind him and his long wings, revealing the tip of this creature's tail is a flamethrower.

Trying to get back on the horse after a week-ish of burnout and fatigue. I'm still not 100% but I can't sit around, so I started with something more casual before proper work tomorrow. (Sorry for another WIP, I'll share this again when it's done and proper!)

WIP of a character reference sheet. A green and orange copper dr-- kobold, copper kobold, named Deriaz. A front and back shot, two portraits (one angry from above, one mouth open and laughing from the side), and a height comparison showing his 4 foot, 122 cm stature next to a 6 foot tall silhouette.

Finished up "The Tenth Line" in my backlog. Crazy good game with some neat mechanics that I think deserves more love. Also, playable dragon man AND a fantastic kobold who I love so muchhh. Check it out if you are looking for a solid indie "jRPG" with some really fun characters~

I think I can call it. Here's what I've been cooking with all these Dracthyr! Had this idea of my character telling- urh, singing a tale to his comrades for a long time and I feel quite happy how it turned out :D |- Song: "The Last Crystal Bearer" - Twilight Force (Mentions below!) #WoW #fanart

I feel like setting this in grey-scales based in deepness and coloring the eyes could save me some sanity. But tbh I would like to add eventually a color layer for something like this bsky.app/profile/itsb... 🤔 Anyways, @tristdragon.bsky.social and @kingmusicalmel.bsky.social alongside my Dracthyr!

THE PRESIDENT *DID* PAY FOR HIS CRIMES. (NSA, FBI, whomever is watching: this is a reference to final fantasy 14 where the starting voice line is "The president must pay for his crimes," please be kind i just am a chocobo man)

Waaahoo! This showed up in the DnD Panel. Worked on some maps for the World of Warcraft DnD book. Some really cool maps I got to work on, as a WoW nerd this was insane fun. Here's what Onyxia's Lair looks like. These were meticulously recreated, I hope y'all like em. :)

The "Don't Forget" motif does more for me than caffeine does, at this point. Even if it ends up being a foreshadow to something dark... It and "Despite everything, it's still you," man. Small things one might think are just whatever, and yet for me, damn. Don't know why I'm thinking about them, but.

also hey sorry for no streams again this weekend, I'm dealing with some IRL stuff and just general... I don't want to call it 'burnout'? But I've just been trying to get my head on straight. It's a part of why work has been slow in general this month. I'm going to try to be ready for next week tho!

When I was 17, I thought the coolest idea for a tank in DDO would've been two giant tower shields I swung around like weapons, almost like a brawler. Needless to say, half my life later, seeing it now in FFXIV makes younger me very happy. And yes, it IS still the coolest idea for a tank. Heck yeah.

Tech Solutions. After a week of battling with my pc to get it working again, I ran out of time for a proper comic. But it did inspire this little one-shot based on some of my thoughts while swearing at Windows.

Quackers comic 07-22-26

A one panel comic that begins with a caption that reads “Some computer issues require a delicate approach.”
A computer sits on a desk, its internals on fire and sputtering sparks. One of the front red-lit fans looks like an eye giving a mean look to Jason. Jason is stood behind the computer, brandishing a chainsaw and sticking his tongue out in concentration. Tom stands to the other side holding a baseball bat with an angry expression. Behind him is a monitor with a red screen, and a yellow triangle with an exclamation point emblazoned on it.

Curse Catcher One of my oldest pieces This is the piece I finally felt like I ‘understood’ painting (Don’t worry I forget/don’t understand everytime I work on a painting lol)

The Missing Link cutscene is so, so good. I need that. I also want a game like that but mixed with Monster Hunter or Exoprimal where you go out with friends and fight big battles against giant Heartless like that to help the city's research. God, it's so peak. It's so cool. I love Kingdom Hearts.

Thinking I might change Fridays and Saturdays to personal work or commission work days, and start just doing smaller games at the end of streams if I feel it. When I'm live, I feel like I need to be "on", but if it's a day off, I want to recharge. So if I need to be "on", it should align with the--
