Silent hill fan art. Harry running away from two dog-like monsters in an alleyway.

Silent hill 3 fan art. Heather in Alessa's room, sitting on the bed. There's a little desk, a butterfly collection on the wall, and the ghostly shape of Alessa staring at her old dress in the corner.

Silent hill fan art. Harry playing the piano with bloody keys in the school. Ghostly silhouettes of the birds featured in the puzzle (a dove, a pelican, a crow, a swan and a raven) are flying around the dark room.

Silent hill 4 fan art. Henry waking up, sitting on the ground, in the forest world, under a lamp post at night. There's pine trees and tall grass around him.

Digital art of a close-up lantern shark painted with bright colours with a watercolour texture. It blends the realism of the shark’s anatomy with whimsical colours on a white background.

Silent Hill 4 fan art. Henry in a greenish hallway made of pipes and metal grates, firing a revolver at a Twin Victim, a monster with two baby heads walking in two large arms wrapped in a black shroud, pointing at him.

Silent Hill 2 fanart. James being strangled by one of the three bed-frame-like bosses of the hospital, that are hanging from the ceiling. He's using his hands to try to free himself and kicking his feet.

Silent Hill 3 fan art. Heather reading one of Stanley's journals next to a doll and to the wall where he glued a lot of items. She isn't even touching the journal but she looks disgusted. The ghost of Stanley is hovering over her, many ghostly hands touching her hair or gesturing around her face.

Silent Hill 3 fan art. Vincent, in the library, holding a book, looking vaguely apologetic but also smug.

Leese on Life @katherineleese.is.tired.fyi · 9d

A Doctor Who pure-historical where the TARDIS breaks down in 1750 BC Mesopotamia; luckily, it’s actually a really simple part to fix as long as they can find someone to sell them some good quality Sumerian copper.

Silent Hill 2 fan art. James Sunderland in the streets of Silent Hill, staring at the fog, holding Mary's letter.

Silent hill fan art. Harry Mason in an alley, shouting at a flying monster that looks like a skinned pterodactyl.

Silent Hill 4 fan art. Walter Sullivan sitting in the floor in the middle of black feathers and red cords. Behind him is his corpse as seen crucified behind the wall in Henry's apartment. Behind the corpse is his "real body", the flayed corpse in the final boss battle.

Silent hill 3 fan art. Heather in the flooded pit under the other world hospital, knee-deep in muddy water, raising her katana to stab Leonard, a huge featureless humanoid figure with reddish skin crawling through the water right in front of her.

Silent Hill 4 fan art. Henry and Eileen walking down the spiral staircase in Walter's dimension, in the fog, under a broken piece of wall in mid-air with a dimensional circular hole in it. An enormous moth with shiny red eyes is perched right under the hole. Henry is carefully peering over the edge of the staircase.

Silent Hill 4 fan art. Walter Sullivan watching you through the peephole.

Silent hill 3 fan art. Heather trying to leave the haunted mansion, wary, her back against a door. The deadly red mist is filtering through the door and above her head, vaguely looking like fingers reaching for her.

Silent Hill 2 fan art. James facing the boss based on Maria//Mary, distorted and upside-down in a cage-like bedframe, arms extended, surrounded by a swarm of black moths. A black tentacle coiled around her body has impaled James through the chest.

Haven't posted this year's artober here cause I forgot oops
This year mine is Silent Hill themed

Silent Hill 4 fan art. Eileen, very distressed, clutching an old notebook against her chest, covered in bandages and bruises, staring straight into the camera with her only eye not covered by a bandage. There's a halo of eleven bloody handprints on the greenish tiled wall behind her.

Silent Hill fan art. Cybil, possessed, with glowing red eyes, rising up from a wheelchair on the merry go round, gun drawn. Her posture is a bit strange and puppet-like. There's weird vein-like red tendrils around her.

Silent Hill 3 fan art. Heather looking into the hole in the floor that opened after she poured blood on the altar in the hospital. There's a trail of blood going from the altar behind her to the hole in the floor and plunging into darkness.

Silent Hill 2 fan art. James in the historical society, looking at the Pyramid Head painting ("Misty day, remains of judgement"), extending a hand towards the painting.

To brighten up a wet and rainy #FossilFriday, here's my take on the recently described drepanosaur Mirasaura grauvogeli. It's shown among the conifer Voltzia, a plant found in abundance in the same beds as Mirasaura. The pointed sail shape is based on fossil data...

Synesthesia drawings of personal favorite hit songs - 2015: “Downtown” by Macklemore

Abstract pattern illustrating the song Downtown by Macklemore. There's yellow round bells, mint green vocals by Macklemore, violet vocals by the background singers, bright orange to pink vocals by the chorus singer, and a lot of differently colored instruments constantly changing. There's a small picture of Macklemore sleeping on a moped at the start of the music video in the bottom right corner.

Une grosse manifestation à gauche de l'image. Mais toutes les caméras sont focalisées sur un casseur à droite de l'image qui détruit une voiture.

Finished the beading >:]

Letters and happy face beads on colorful elastic spelling out
HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

Repost cause the first post had a typo

JohannesVIII @johannesviii.bsky.social · Sep 13

There's apparently a scene that was cut for time in Infinity Train S2E07 where Lucy and other Apex kids were doing some kind of weird cult thing with belongings stolen from another passenger and I thought it would be fun to draw that. I have no idea what it was supposed to look like, though

Infinity Train fanart in watercolor. Lucy and two other Apex kids standing next to a circle of Yankee candles lit around a backpack and a water bottle. Lucy is pointing at the backpack with a wooden sword. Grace is looking at them from a distance, wondering what they are doing.
