Today's my birthday!! 🎉 Sharing my art for others to see on this day as is the rule~ Officially closer to 30 than 20 ✌️

Black and white illustration of my sona (it/its) eating some meat looking chunk
A frame w/ a wrecked ship, moray eels and some scaly giant creature

Black and white sketch of my oc The Assistant (it/its), a man covered in scars and with different skin tone patches and slicked back stark white hair
A sea urchin in its mouth, another seemingly in its throat
It is looking up, half of its face in the shadow
"Insubordination will be punished" handwritten at the bottom of the drawing

Black and white inked illustration, a single figure in the center back to us, my oc Jerms (He/they/it)
He is in a long tight dress spreading on the floor, he is holding a huge bumblebee like it was a cat in his arms
Withered flowers and foliage at their feet as well as leafless trees in the background

Monochromatic sketch of Otto (It/none), a masked figure, on its knees, slightly hiding its face with its hands, red thorns behind it in a vague labyrinth pattern

if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you - Nietzche OC Leviathan work in progress. I use 'demons' a lot in my work, but depending on the story it means different things. you can sell your soul to this one. wouldn't advise it, but you *could* #ocsky #art #wip

It's been such a long time since I've binged a series the way I've been binging Dungeon Crawler Carl, to the point where my doomscrolling habit has broken itself just moved on to book 3. blacked out and bought book 4 when I passed the bookstore today. might as well ride this train while I'm on it

Elsa Velasco @evelasco.bsky.social · last yr.

Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Elsa, book cover illustrator focused on fantasy, sci-fi and horror. I have a soft spot for nature, symbolism and hidden details. Currently available for freelance work! 💼 elsavelasco.com ✉️ elsavelascoart@gmail.com

Illustration of a long-haired man sleeping. There are worlds melting in his hair, the skyline of Portland before him and Mount Hood in the background

Illustration of a man praying and looking back. There are flames and insects surrounding him.

Illustration of a wide-open eye surrounded by leaves. There’s a white neuron in his iris

Self portrait of myself, a short-haired white person, holding my mouth with my hand. There’s a hole in my chest with a white crow trapped in crooked and spiked vines. Black crows are flying in the background

Knight Of Cups #art | #ocart

An illustration in a tarot like style showing a dhampir (half vampire) holding a golden goblet to the viewer. His other hand is placed on his chest with red rose petals seeming to flow from put his chest. Around his head is a half halo of swords. In front of him are heraldic shapes in which each lies a small illustration; from left to right they show a sword hilt, a lily and a butterfly. Behind the man on the left is a nightly atmospheric castle and to the left is a floral ornamental pattern at which the very top rests a white dove. The whole painting is in a dream like blue, yellow and green hue with the mans skin being in purple undertones. The red on the roses and overflowing goblet serve as accents.

Book finished this week was Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman, which I almost didn't want to like because hardbacks are a significant space and money investment...but I really did and it wasn't at all what I was expecting (in a good way) goddammit, donut

Maroon Ink Studio - Wishlist Nozomu School Daze on Steam!@marooninkstudio.bsky.social · 3mo ago

For #ScreenshotSaturday, we’re building a dating-sim visual novel with a brawl between the three romanceable male leads! FMC Sari needs to thread the needle between three boys who drive her crazy – and destroy the school where she’s taking a life-changing exam! 😱 BATTLE VN ⚔️🩸🫦

A screenshot of Nozomu School Daze, an upcoming visual novel by Maroon Ink Studio! A woman glares at the camera in her bedroom, with text reading, "I pinch the point of one of my ears, still secretly wishing I'd succeeded in cutting them off as a kid."

A screenshot of Nozomu School Daze, an upcoming visual novel by Maroon Ink Studio! A woman, Sari, glares at the camera, standing in city streets. A second woman, Elizabeth, laughs at her, flanked by two silhouettes of girls. A menu is superimposed over the girls. The text at the bottom reads, "How should I handle Elizabeth?” Of the three choices in the middle, “Be Gentle” is highlighted. The other two choices are “Be rude back” and “Run past.”

An annoyed woman in a school uniform, Sari, glares at the camera. Three men stand before her: Seki, a long-haired martial artist with his hair in a ponytail; Seth, a cat man in a school uniform, and Julius, a dapper knight in a suit-vest and top hat. The cat man is crying because Seki says, “Nope, never heard of you.”
