didn't know today was #PortfolioDay! hi I'm Max, a disabled nonbinary lesbian artist. I draw my OCs, do comms, design characters & merch, and have recently started videography :o)

Two starhead humanoid characters with happy expressions holding hands. One has a circle nose and top surgery scars, the other has a triangle nose and breasts with flower shaped pasties. A squiggly rainbow surrounds them in the background, and the rainbow text "t4t 4evr" is below. The artwork is bordered by a glitter texture.

A simple reference sheet of an anthro biplane character. The character is posed in two front-facing, symmetrical fullbodies, showing two different wing designs as well as two bomber jackets. Iron-on patch designs are scattered throughout the ref sheet, with themes like space flight, post office, nature, and pride flag.

Digital art of an anthro canine character and their Pokemon team. They're posing with their main partner, an Ampharos named Jin-Jin, on a tropical beach. The rest of their team is shown on the side with icons and summaries, they are a Swampert, shiny Dragonite, Arcanine, Farigiraf, and Breloom. A cropped map of Hoenn, four Hoenn badges, and a Pokedex and Pokegear, are shown in the corners.

A video thumbnail featuring the player character from Formless Star, a humanoid with an anemometer on their head, winking and holding up a peace sign in front of a blurred pixel landscape with bright colors. Bubble letters in front of them read "new animal!" with small stars as the dots.

Hi #portfolioday ☀️

I’m a Polish illustrator & full-time 2D Game Artist. I love to create cozy art, usually celebrating nature or small moments of everyday life. I want to bring feelings of comfort to everyone and brighten their day with my work!

✸ Store: vexnir-shop.com ✸

Gouache illustration of a black cat wearing a scarf with various geometric patterns on it. The scarf is in warm shades with some green accents.

Watercolor illustration of a bunch of colorful pumpkins, with a beige striped cat sleeping on top of them curled up into a ball, slightly resembling the round pumpkins itself.

Traditional fan art in watercolor and colored pencil. It’s an illustration showing the Pokémon Ampharos, with a little Togepi in its arms, standing among bushes full of yellow flowers. A small house, trees and electrical poles can be seen in the background, with Mt. Fuji faintly hovering over them in the distance.

Traditional drawing in mixed media of a white cat with a yellow straw hat sitting inside a blue cardboard box. It’s surrounded with other boxes full of oranges.

actually I have quite a few options for colors, I could do black/lavender/orange or even candy corn yellow/orange/white HMMM....

but I wanted to try this first (holographic purple/blue on black base coat) cause I knew I'd like it even if it didn't turn out more on the purple side :o)

✸ Max ✸ comms OPEN @dracononite.bsky.social · 2d

Ended up a bluer "deep space" kind of color but that's still fitting imo! If they chip badly before Halloween I'll try another technique, or maybe go lavender and orange?

Per the advice of my friends, I am going through with a fundraiser to get me out of here . My friend has offered to let me stay with them until I can get my own place. Unfortunately, I can't offer more commissions outside of what I need to pay bills until Im caught up.

Things have gotten so bad with my mom i fear i may have to make a gofundme to escape. Dealing with her has become unbearable. She's prone to scream over nothing, and this morning was a breaking point for me. Things /were never this bad/ a few years ago. Or maybe they were and im forgetting
