Oh my god I have some new art to post. 😭
Working on these guy's heads and mouth proportions because it's basically an f-ed up human head but I want to retain some stylized features at the same time. Adjusted some minor design elements as well. Going to animate them for fun on 3s with action shots.

SO. Buttered mold for breakfast.

'TIS THE SEASON!

The giant werewolf action figures are doing their last run and the tariffs have raised the price. :(

Man, I wanted to make them fight. I just think they're neat.

It would help us all to stretch our memorization. There's a concern that losing these basic functions could lead to dementia.

Is it time to go out to pasture?

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Labradorite wooof. Also, my pet dragon was imprisoned for kissing trolls at the fair.

It's not like I wasn't in full costume, I'm just absolutely terrible at putting myself in photos.

I love the weird people who live here. It just wouldn't be the USA without them.

Scyrelx @scyrel.bsky.social · 6d

This will be fun! I'm excited to draw this character.

It's okay!

I have a bad habit of doing too much and burning out because I tend to make overly complicated art. I'll make some concept passes once I get some time.

Scyrelx @scyrel.bsky.social · 7d

The first image is closer, but these soft game renders are a completely different style in tone and color. It's a game render, something I can't put into a comic. It's no problem, though, I do appreciate it!

Dark fantasy is not as popular as regular fantasy.

Ah! I should have specified. I am looking for stylized background art drawn quick-ish with a dark fantasy theme. I was digging through the concept art of films like The Dark Crystal and Pan's Labrynth as a starting point.

Ai is hiding all the hand drawn comic style art I'm looking for.

I need to find some background styles that match the dark fantasy feel that are also not super complicated to draw. If anyone HAPPENS to have seen any cool ones, could you shoot them my way?

I just found you, but I'd love to draw your little guy for fun. :)

I'm excited to see everyone's work coming together!

They are getting so close and the final shots are looking amazing! This was just the 1st cleanup shot that I did.

These new Mystery Skulls Animated clips are posted on our most recent patreon update, but I thought I'd share them directly here too for easier viewing. We wanted to show off two compiled scenes we've been putting together for the next video!

We get upset when people or animals do things we don't like, but the absence of either in life just doesn't feel right.

I like having that friction, not because I like drama, but it satisfies a sense of realness in today's climate. She put her toes in my food. It's gross, but I wanted to keep it.

Green cheek conure naughtily nibbling food off the back of a spoon. Perched on the rim of a bowl of soup.

I wouldn't trust this. What if the AI makes me buy the most expensive item I don't need? Plus, the person could hate it.

Sure does enhance the feeling that these holidays are an obligation rather than a special time of social connection.

Dragged my feet, but it took all day to switch my previously incompatible PC to Windows 11.

I upgraded a couple art programs along the way. Now I can animate in clip if I want.

Have a jiangshi!

Over on IG, an artist I follow created a spiritober prompt list. I think I may try a few if my schedule allows it.

It's officially spooky time!

I was going to keep these personal, but werewolf adjacent stuff is fun to make/ look at.

I don't need an emotional support animal for medical reasons, however, I keep animals because they satisfy an emotional need based on a primal function.

Therefore, are they not technically emotional support animals?

I found this cute blanket hoodie and I'm excited to wear it while I sit next to the AC vent.

Lucia does not care about my shenanigans, only that she is included in them.

I visit Spirit Halloween 1 time a year to see if there might be anything I could use. I noticed shoulder-riders this year, from birds to cheap looking dragons.

Hilariously, I have better versions of both at home already.

I really want to go to monsterpalooza and Transworld.
