Im a sculptor living in St Louis. I use a lot of cardboard and other under appreciated materials to create taxidermy style art pieces. You can find my work at Houska Gallery here in STL or contact me directly for current available pieces or commissions.

#portfolioday

Hello everyone!!! I'm LDD from Delaware. I work mostly on my OC, from a story I'm developing. 🖖🏽😁

#art #oc #ocart #LivingDeadDivision #procreateartist

Lain, Adelaine Moon, Heléna the King and Phoe-Bee

Lain - Preferred VA: Seth Rogen

Lain is an immortal human who was born in the mid 1980s. He lived a full life, and died in a hospital with his soul mate Heléna. It just so happens, a cooky scientist was doing some science-shit at the same time. A hole got torn in the space-time continuum and Phoe-Bee's (God) energy pushed their souls back into their bodies. They were revived and now their bodies constantly regenerate to peak cellular condition. Also, the energy sent to Lain, "cloned" him, and created Adelaine Moon.

Adelaine Moon - Preferred VA: Megan Thee Stallion

An immortal accidental celestial clone of my main OC Lain. As Lain and Adelaine were once one being, they were born in the 1980s. They lived a full life, and died in a hospital with their soul mate Heléna. It just so happens, a cooky scientist was doing some science-shit at the same time. A hole got torn in the space-time continuum and Phoe-Bee's (God's) energy pushed their souls back into their bodies. They were revived and now their bodies constantly regenerate to peak cellular condition. Also, the energy sent to Lain, cloned him, and created Adelaine. Personality-wise.... 🤔 She's like a Megan Thee Stallion song, come to life.

Heléna the King - Preferred VA: Cardi B

Heléna the King. An immortal human with a GIANT heart, and a sass for days! She's fun, she's funny, and always is able to bring up the spirits of everyone around her.

Phoe-Bee - Preferred VA : Chelsea Peretti and Caitlin Glass

Phoe-Bee. She is God. The coalescence of all energy in the universe. She's got ALL the knowledge, but still working on figuring out context. She CANNOT read a room.

Preferred VA : Chelsea Peretti and Caitlin Glass

Phoe-Bee. She is God. The coalescence of all energy in the universe (including "YOU!"). She's got ALL the knowledge, but still working on figuring out context. She CANNOT read a room. She gained full consciousness in the the mid-1980's, but didn't realize it fully until space-time was broken by a random scientist. She likes to hang-out-with/travel the cosmos with the Living Dead Division as a robotic bee, she originally tried an organic bee, but a 3-foot-long bee wasn't received calmly by really any species.

Stormy ⛈️ - Preferred VA : Kat Denning & Awkwafina

Stormy, the Angel of Time. She's as-if Limp Bizkit and Lady Gaga formed a super-group. She's an episode of Metalocalypse. A 70's horror B-movie, but on purpose...... She's fucking GRINDHOUSE!!!! But she's super sweet, and adores children especially baby sky turtles. She's kinda like a My Little Pony..... with a "gun". If ANYONE messes with the space-time continuum, she WILL BE THERE, and clap those cheeks!!!! She WILL NOT kill anyone (everyone is apart of Phoe-Bee). But.... there's a lot of beatings that can be dished-out, without killing someone. 😜

https://characterhub.com/character/stormy-StrvQzVr

Elysia Eryn and Lottie Lily.

Elysia Eryn - Preferred VA: Zendaya

Elysia Eryn (based on my oldest daughter) is the older sister of Lottie Lily (based on my youngest daughter). And she is a mechanical whiz kid. She's a builder, engineer, and tech nerd. Being a descent of Lain/Adelaine, the Living Dead Division watch over their bloodline through the ages.

Preferred VA :....?.... Caitlin Glass....?

Lottie Lily is the younger sister of my OC Elysia Eryn. They both are part of the Bloodline. Descendants of Lain, and Adelaine Moon. She is the science genius girl, the Star Trek nerd. Captain McSassypants. A true wunderkind..... But, she's also Daffy Duck.

Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Alexandra, an artist, designer, cartoonist and science communicator! I am currently looking for both representation for my illustration and comic work as well as design work for comics or cover art!

Get in touch: www.alexandragallant.com

abstract illustration of consciousness - neurons floating in space, with interconnecting and branching tendrils and sparks

An illustration - a bunch of overlapping veins and arteries with different translucent organs interspersed throughout the illustration, the effect is a tangled web of branching vessels with various 'organ' shapes overlaying on top, including a lung in the center of the page

colorful illustration of a dozen toucans on a soft sea foamy green background

Two pages from a comic I'm working on

Page 1 is a single panel

'It can feel like plucking fruit off a tree... and seeing what's inside'
Illustration of a branch of a tree with peaches on it, and a cross section of a peach, instead of a pit, there is a brain

Page 2 is 4 panels

Panel 1: "...and sometimes" text over an illustration of a peach
Panel 2: "it's a pit" (cross section of a peach, with the pit visible)
Panel 3: "or a worm" (a fruit with a worm poking out of it)
Panel 4: "but sometimes... it's a universe" the brain/pit in the peach from the previous page is zoomed in and now has rings around it like a planet in space

Oh hello #Portfolioday! Here’s some of the stuff I’ve done:

Digital drawing of a winged veiled woman using one of its wings to partially cover a horned child from the light above them both. Shades of brown hints of teal.

Digital painting base on a sculpture angel by Lorenzo Bernini bastardized. The head of the angel is now two blooming flowers obscured by a sketchy pink neon skull, complete with horns and halo. The background is textured with a non repeating pattern resembling a script.

Digital portrait of a masked woman. Tones of pink, grey and yellow. Large coiled snake bares its fangs in the foreground.

Digital drawing of a white barn own standing on a plinth with a mutated mouse in its talons

Yeh… tbh I loathe this project at this point. It’s taking way longer than I had imagined but luckily I’ll make the same decision soon on a future project. Haha

Yes. Getting ready to do a coat of dark primer and dry brush for the silver.

The kiddo has long blonde hair so that works for the Marvel version.

Pen drawing of a ghostly upper torso, neck, head and shoulders of a bald human emerging from a mass of organic shapes that suggest organs, musculature, veins and other structures. Facing left it is looking with solid white eyes and a third eye towards an area of alien writing and shapes in white on a black background next to what appears to the left half of a viewer facing grey style alien being in an embryonic pose in a container and hooked up to wires and is propped up by the same structure of the background

Pen drawing of a humanoid figure, seemingly colossal, striding across a twisted organic landscape with T shaped towers emerging out of the vine and tendril like ground under a pinkish-purple and blue plasma coloured sky. Structures reach up into the sky with shapes of various beings silhouetted against the sky in the large branch like structures. Other celestial figures hang in the sky at various distances while orbs of blue and purple light hover over the landscape in the foreground.

Pen drawing of a horde of open mouthed and screaming faces with tongues and other appendages stretching out from right to left on the page towards a screaming figure whose throat is exploding as a result of the various tendrils and energies lancing out from them towards it.

Pen drawing a slight framed young woman with her head encased in a metal face mask with strange markings on it with greasy hair spread out over it with devices and wires coming off the helmet. Her arms are bound to her sides by a metal band as she sits cross-legged in a long, old and tattered white dress that flows over her legs. She is separate but a part of the strange devices and technologies surrounding her with two spines emerging from her shoulders almost like distorted wings, seeming to be more of the controlled than the controller of the environment.

Yeh that’s the issue. It’s already in my tummy. So then you have to decide whether you’re going to stealthily replace said candy or admittance.

Justin King @justinkingdesigns.bsky.social · 1d

Kid needed a Thor helmet. First time playing with EVA. Bought a template from
Black Sheep Props. I’ve followed most of the instruction but have gone off script a bit. Fun material.
