🔻Dani M @danidear.bsky.social · 1d

there’s something about seeing artists’ “weak areas” in their work, yet not being bothered by it bc the art is just so dang charismatic…
wonky feet, wonky furniture, wonky hands, etc.. the art has so much style n personality, it simply doesn’t matter!
And I think that’s beautiful 🤧💖

The cover to Blister City
In the background in orange and pink tones sits a massive city, behind which orange mountains rise into a dusty orange sky
In the foreground 3 punks perch on the edge of a building, surrounded by litter and soda cans. The punk on the left wears a blue jacket that says die young on the back.

The text Blister City can be seen in the sky above the city.

palestinian lesbians once again ✨
{ #art #pride }

Digital art Illustration of two women in a tender embrace in front of a arched window. Both women are Palestinian and wearing elaborately decorated traditional thobes. The woman to the left has a deeper skin tone and a tender smile. Her braided black hair is decorated with silver ornaments towards the bottom.

The woman to the right is wearing a heavy coin headdress that has chains leading down to her waist. Her face has subtle tattoos that match those on her hand.

In the arched window behind them there are palm trees in the distance and foliage that coveres the bottom of the window.

Post a mage!

Gosh i still get a giggle from this comic, i love to redraw silly memes ⚡

#Skyrim

This image and the following 3 images are a redraw of different characters, played as a joke from the cartoon "Phineas and Ferb".
First image of two ladies on a magical horse that looks like a dark skeleton with mane and a tail made of blue flames. The rider is an original character and she is an elven woman in a red shirt and the other lady is Illia, she's a human girl in a blue robe, a character from the game Skyrim.
They are riding in the woods with yellowish background similar to autumn forest.

Same image as the 1st one, but with another rider on a sand-colored horse, an arrogant looking man by the name Sibbi Black-Briar from the game Skyrim and he is addressing Illia by saying "hey sweetheart! How'd you like to take a ride on a *real* steed?" while spanking his horse on the back.

Same image as before but Sibbi has a smug face and the elven woman turns to the him and exclaims "she's sixteen!"

Same image as before but now the elven woman is zapping Sibbi with a lightning spell for harrassing a sixteen year old girl, exactly like it was in the cartoon.
