Art of my OC, Daisy May, lying in a coffin lined with red silk and white lace. She's holding a bouquet of daisies, wearing a white dress and a silver cross, and staring fearfully at the viewer.

The title reads "Daisy May Die"

Art mimicking the front porch screen of the horror game No I'm Not A Human. Instead of the usual sprite I've drawn in my OC, Hunter. He's picking his teeth with his little finger.

Text reads:
"You seen a girl come by this way? Pretty short, barefoot. Maybe a bit confused."
Response options are: "Haven't seen her, sorry." or "Why are you looking for her?"

Daisy: It... I dunno--
Gracie: Y'don't KNOW? Y'don't recognise yer own diary, huh? Well then. Lemme refresh yer memory some. SIT.

Now, more than ever, you have to be a weird little pervert who makes art of questionable quality. You need to be driven crazy by the flesh. Because, as we all learned from Cronenberg's The Fly, the computers are not made crazy by the flesh. They can't do it like us.

The resident jesters continue their 'safe' antics. This year, we're sanitising kinktober! Now you don't have to worry about those pesky kinks corrupting your feeble mind.

Kinktober prompt: CBT. No - The other kind.

[ #ocsky ▪︎ #kinktober ▪︎ #artsky ▪︎ #ocart ]

Title reads "Kinktober redacted - 2025 - Prompt: CBT"

Two clowns. The one on the left is sat in an armchair, one leg folded over the other, with dark short hair and sad/crying clown makeup. Despite this, she's actually smiling as she pretends to take notes and asks, "-And have you tried REFRAMING these negative thoughts?"

The clown on the right has happy makeup, but seems unamused. She's reclined on the therapy couch, responding "I'll reframe your FACE with my FIST if you give me another breathing exercise."

On the table between them is a box of tissues and a bloody hammer. While the figures are in black and white, the background is bright yellow, contrasting against both them and the dark red bloodstain splattered across the wall.
A limp hand is visible behind the couch.

Hi #PortfolioDay! 🧡

I'm Koil. I love the grim, the dark, the little-bit-weird, & I'm releasing a comic following these lines! Daisy May Die is about a devout mother’s suffocating control - and the grisly cost of escaping it.

↳🟠 Comic: daisy-may-die.the-comic.org
↳⛓ Links: koilarist.carrd.co

Art of my comic's main character, Daisy May, lying in a coffin lined with red silk and white lace. She's holding a bouquet of daisies, wearing a white dress and a silver cross, and staring fearfully at the viewer.

The title reads "Daisy May Die"

A two-part image of Daisy's friend, Sam, coming into a room to check on her, only to find her hunched over crying on the floor, blowing snot bubbles, with a fall out boy song in the background.

Sam has a nose piercing, straight dark hair, and looks concerned. Daisy's in a white lacy top and looks a complete mess, honestly.

Sam's speech reads: Dais? Your break ended ten minutes ago - you okay? ...... Are you listening to FALL OUT BOY in here??

Sketchy art of Daisy-May slumped on her knees, sweating, her hair up in a bun but beginning to fall out and stick to her sweaty skin despite her efforts to stay cool.

There's an out-of-focus fan in the foreground, pointing towards her, and she's holding a melting popsicle. She's barefoot and wearing only a crop top and shorts.

Speech reads:
"It's soOoOoOoOo HOT. M'sweatin' like a SINNER in CHURCH."

A page of comic panels, depicting Daisy looking concerned at the sight of her mother waiting for her in front of the house while her brother, Ark, works on fixing his car.

Dialogue reads:
Ark: What you done this time?
Daisy: Nothin'...
Ark: You done the dishes like she asked?
Daisy: YES, I did the dishes, ARK.
Ark: Jeez. Just askin'.

Daisy: Yes, Mama?
Gracie: Inside.

I know I've said it a hundred times already but god I love your art SO much!! The night time city vibes that reoccur are some of my favourite 🧡

Oh I love the watercolour style for an isometric view, it's like a story book

Also that second one has my brain in an absolute vice grip with your fantastic use of red. The way it almost seems to bleed into the linework...

Woooowww your linework is stunning! The amount of detail and texture you pack in there is mind boggling

» ꓘᴏɪʟ 👁️‍🗨️💾 @koilarist.bsky.social · 14h

Beautiful work, the otherworldly eerie vibes are so potent

Honestly this has made me consider that even though I have a spotify playlist for Daisy May Die on the site.... maybe I should make a thread?? 👀 hmmmmmm

» ꓘᴏɪʟ 👁️‍🗨️💾 @koilarist.bsky.social · 15h

Oh this is AWESOME. I love your whole style!! The combination of the visceral imagery with the cute little cats is tuned to a balance that lights my brain up bigtime 👀

and when we have An Ailment™️ which prevents us from drawing we start getting a little bit exorcist about it.

thrashing and speaking in tongues (jibbering about The Characters) and whatnot

The next page is up, and uhhhh! Well! Get your final prayers in while you still can!

» TODAY'S UPDATE «
» FROM THE START «

A preview of the latest comic page. It depicts a silhouette in a dark room, backlit by the orange/red light from a window behind.

Speech reads: "Daisy, girl. What on God's green earth--"

The rest of the text reads "New Page Up!" and the title of the series, "Daisy May Die"

😭 WHAT thank you Blud 🧡
I had to change it up a little and slam dunk it into the compression machine to get that 🤌 Grit to it that the game seems to have. I also experimented a little with the perspective but you can't really tell thanks to the fisheye LMAO
