Reaper O’lantern (Halloween 2025)

A digital illustration I drew of my OC, Reaper, wearing a Jack O’lantern on her head. She’s wearing an open blue cloak, with very long pitch black hair covering most of her body. She has her hands up near her head, with her fingers spread out.

A digitally illustrated drawing I made of my OC, Phaedra. She’s a very humanoid character, based on a Death’s-head Hawkmoth. She has the wings, antennae, and neck fluff based on the previously mentioned moth.

Four digital illustrations I drew of my OC, Bliss. She’s a human, and she’s wearing fancy dresses in each doodle. There’s also a doodle of a pink bow near the bottom of the canvas.

A digitally illustrated drawing I made of two of my OCs, Time and Reaper. They are both eldritch beings.

Time’s speech bubble reads: “You’ve done well, thus far.”
Reaper’s speech bubble reads: “Thank you, sir.” In reply.

I can’t really say much about his side of their dynamic without spoilers, but: He sees her in a neutral light. But of course, he finds her useful as the dialogue implies. And, that’s all I can say about his side for now as well!

@CrushedUpBugs @crushedupbugs.bsky.social · 3d

To make it less vague to the best of my abilities, without spoiling anything: Reaper loves to serve Time, and she enjoys receiving praise and attention from him. That’s all I can say about her side, for now! (Continued⬇️)

It’s vague, but I wanted to make a drawing showing the dynamic/relationship between Time (The taller character) and Reaper (The shorter character). Continued⬇️

You’ve done well. (Colored sketch) The reason behind this piece is in the thread below!

#OutreakBeyond #OC #OriginalCharacters #OClore #OCcomic

Digitally illustrated bust shots of two of my OCs, Reaper and Time.

Reaper is an eldritch being, with very long, pitch black hair, covering her entire face, except for her teeth, and slivers of her eyes, which have tiny glowing white pupils. She’s wearing a gray-blue cloak, with the hood down, and she can be seen from the shoulders up.

Next to her, who she is smiling at, is Time. He is also an eldritch being, whose face is skull-like, with candle antlers lit by blue flames. He has two large fangs, and oval eyes with tiny glowing white dots in the middle, which are his “pupils”. He’s wearing a cloak with with a candle wax like hood and shoulders. He’s looking at reaper, while saying “You’ve done well, thus far.”

Reaper’s speech bubble reads: “Thank you, sir.” In reply to him.

but we have an AU together (with two other family members) where we each picked one of our OCs, and they live together in an alternate universe called: "Roach infested leaf carcass"!

@CrushedUpBugs @crushedupbugs.bsky.social · 4d

"The Talk Box" is a talk show in one of my Nephew’s original stories, hosted by one of his characters! Oliver isn’t canonically in my Nephew’s story, (obviously, he’s from mine), (continued⬇️)

#AU Oliver Doodle! (“I survived The Talk Box”) What “The Talk Box” is in the replies!

#RoachInfestedLeafCarcass #OutbreakBeyond #Art #Doodle #DigitalArt #DigitalArtist #OC #OriginalCharacter #AlternateUniverse

A digitally illustrated doodle I drew of my OC, Oliver, in a simplified style. He’s wearing gray sweat pants, and a pink T-shirt that says “I survived guest starring on The Talk Box” on it, in purple letters. He’s shaking, with a tired/upset expression on his face, while holding a cup of coffee. He has short white hair, freckles, and his eyes are shut.

Oh, I forgot to mention: Oliver no longer canonically has wings. I still think the way I designed his wings (Half formed/translucent) is a cool concept, so I might still use them for symbolism. But, they are no longer literal/real.

@CrushedUpBugs @crushedupbugs.bsky.social · 5d

I'll give her an actual reference sheet at some point! Now I just need to finish Phonse’ redesign, and make new references for the other characters who aren’t getting redesigned, but updated. (For those who don’t know: “Sharp Stitches” is one of my other stories I’m writing!)

@CrushedUpBugs @crushedupbugs.bsky.social · 5d

So, I originally drew this for a line art swap with a friend/family member, but, this is how i colored it. (You can see the line art swap below this post on my page!) I really like the design, and I wanted to use it: So, it's Phaedra's new design! I think it fits her as a character.

Phaedra’s new design! (More in replies)

#OC #OriginalCharacter #OCredesign #DeathsHeadHawkmoth #CharacterDesign #SharpStitches

A full body digital illustration of my OC, Phaedra, drawn by me.

She’s a very humanoid death’s-head hawkmoth themed character. She has short orange hair, with short bangs, blue eyes with black scleras and red pupils. She has a smile on her face, and she’s wearing a short yellow mantle, a plain brown dress, long boots with fluff at the tops, and long gloves covering her whole arms with three “spikes” on the back, mimicking insect legs. She also has Death’s-head hawkmoth wings, antennae, and fluff around her neck, like a moth, with a cartoonish skull in the middle of it.

Line art swap with @messedupdogg.bsky.social!

#LineArtSwap #ArtSwap #DigitalArt #DigitalArtist #OC #OriginalCharacter #OCartist

A digitally illustrated full body drawing of a character based on a death’s-head hawkmoth, by me. She’s humanoid, with short hair, moth “fluff” around her neck with a skull in the middle of it, long boots with the same “fluff” at the tops, long gloves with three spikes on the back, moth antennae, and moth wings. It’s in the line art stage, as it’s for a line art swap. It says “What I drew:” next to her.

We also colored our own line art, to see how differently we’d do it! You can see those on my TikTok now ( TikTok user: CruhsedUpBugs ), or, wait till I post mine on here tomorrow.
