a drawing of my oc, Ava. there's a border around it as if its a polaroid picture.

ava has pale-ish skin, dark hair, and green eyes that are looking up ant to the left of the drawing. she has a white streak in her hair and dark makeup (eyeshadow and lipstick) as well as a black choker and a necklace with a guitar pick on it. she's wearing a gray tanktop with the lace and straps of a bra visible underneath.

ava is posting with her tongue out, holding her glasses and exposing a tongue piercing. she also has a few ear piercings and rings. there is a bright flash on her face.

My name is Beel
I am a 25 y/o transmasc agender artist, premed student & disabled queer

I ADORE making & drawing OCs, interactions, rp, etc.
+ have been a forever DM / occasional ttrpg player for many many years!

I always love making OC dynamics w friends!

#oc #ocart #art

Halfbody reference sheet for Woe, a Changeling wizard OC. They use They, It, or Any pronouns, and are declared to be 5'7. They have pale white skin with a lavender hue, and whitish gray long messy hair. A braid hangs from their hair over their shoulder. Their tail matches their skin color.
Woe is wearing a loose orange-brown cloak that is half hanging over one shoulder, tucked into their belt on the other side. They have a pink mauve corset underneath, and a matching colored fingerless gauntlet. Woe is also wearing a brown belt with gold loops, and another green belt hanging over their charcoal black pants. They're holding a spellbook with glowing blue whitish symbols, and purple script.

Finished art piece showing five quadrants of character bust shots. All four corner quadrants are of different forms the Changeling in the middle quadrant has shapeshifted into.
The upper left quadrant is a Firbolg with antlers smiling at the camera from a forest background. The upper right quadrant is a fluffy Leonin sticking their tongue out at a mountain field background. The bottom left quadrant is a Tiefling with her hand out as if she's explaining something at a bar counter. The bottom right quadrant is a big muscular Orc with a cocky smirk and tusks showing, arms crossed standing in a street.
All characters have pale lavender skin with white freckles, and the same eyes with black sclera and pink hued irises, with sharp pupils. The Firbolg has purple antlers and grayish hair, the Leonin has Blue tinted fur for their mane, the Tiefling has purple hair, and the Orc has charcoal blue tinted hair.

Fullbody image of a paladin donning full body armor, sitting down with his knees up and his arms resting over them. He is wearing an ensemble of dark grey and reddish hued armor plates, with a helmet that completely obscures his face, dark horns, and a dark red cloak and helmet plumage.
He is sitting in a dark forest where the trees have dark gray bark, but shining gold autumn leaves. There's sparse grass around, and the image has symbology of floating white sword outlines around his head and back.

Halfbody image of an Aasimar Twilight Cleric, facing the viewer. He has pale skin, with starry patterns by his eyes and cheeks, and glowing white lined runes over his forearms. He has wild, long curly silver hair and pointed elf ears sticking out. Both arms are extended out and his hands are radiating a thin green magical fog.
There is a greenish blue halo sparkling over his head, and his eyes are a blank, glowing green hue.

He is wearing clerical robes tossed over an arm, draped like a cloak. He has a sleeveless tight black top with gold designs, and some folded purple sashes, alongside a silver eye-decorated fabric belt.
Behind the Aasimar are a pair of two black-blue wings with glowing green eye symbols over the tops of the wings, and speckled dark glowing tentacles in front of him at the foreground.

The background is a flat muted wine color.

💛Heyo it's #portfolioday again!!

💛I'm Sunny/Alyssa and I love drawing all sorts of creatures. I enjoy character design and experimenting with different styles!

💛My motivation for creating comes from making people smile and cherishing the small moments.

Keitt and Haden, my mango cats, are cuddling together (they have realistic cat proportions).

The knight and Hornet are sitting in a secluded field, surrounded by flowers, leaves and vines. The knight has a pumpkin on their head with its horns sticking out of it. Hornet is holding a pumpkin with the bell beast’s face drawn on the front. Hornet is also wearing a hat with some roses and a veil on it.

Lanino And Elnina referenced from a team rocket pose bc they are silly.

Lumina's reference sheet. They are a candle wax demon I designed for art fight 2025.

Can't remember if I've ever done #PortfolioDay but why not 😌

Hello I'm RemKin, a disabled and queer artist/writer who focuses mainly on original works/my own stories & characters

I'm hoping to start making comics soon 👀 as well as being a part of other projects~

Some art peices I did recently:

A painting remake/redraw of a screencap/screenshot from episode 3 of the indie animated show The Amazing Digital Circus, titled The Mystery of Mildenhall Manor; created by Gooseworx and produced by Glitch Productions. Painting/fanart by the artist @BurakkuHardt

The painting shows the character Kinger, walking down a corridor/pillard hall, from a zoomed out perspective as he glows brightly. There are stairs in the foreground, and barely visible stairs further away. The artist has taken an artistic spin on the scene by painting swirls of light coming from Kinger, as well as shining beams and a powdery mist. You can see specks of light floating around, representing the lost damned souls.

A digital drawing/painting art piece of artist @BurakkuHardt's OC Baby;

Baby is standing in a public bathroom stall full of graffiti, looking up at the viewer as if they are taking his photo. He has one hand up, a 3-fingered peace sign over his eye, and his other arm is lower, another 3-fingered peace sign but this time with his arm in a neon teal/green cast with "Property of Lucca" written on it. The angle of the drawing has a slight birds-eye perspective, with the viewer looking down at Baby from higher up. He has neon green/teal buzz cut hair with pink yellow and blue colored smiley faces dyed into it, with two areas left uncut to form mini multi-colored space buns, as well as two multi-colored rats tails in the back. Baby has neon colored facial and body piercings, with face tattoos and body tattoos all over, and his top row of teeth are gold plated. He is wearing a neon tang top connected to baggy pants suspender style, with a neon pink fishnet crop underneath with a collar, and a chain connecting the crop to his underwear, and a pink see-through raincoat. He has a dark spot on his lip as if it had been bit, and hickey bruises on his neck.

A semi-realistic drawing/painting done in an almost comic book style, where the artist BurakkuHardt has redrawn a screencap/screenshot of the MCU movie Iron Man (2008) where Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., is sitting in an army jeep that has just been attacked; the image is mostly the dark interior of the jeep with a scuffed window being the only light source. Tony has his arm up, bracing himself as he looks on with a careful expression trying not to show fear. His hair is tussled and his eyes are glossy.
There are hash textures and Ben Day dots adding to the comic texture, as well as a slight grain and textured watermarks.

A digital painting of a rural area in a Midwest asthetic; the buildings are cramped together and are generally unkept- broken chain link fences and weeds overgrown. Two children (Corey and Skylar) walk without shoes, scrapped up and bruised, balancing on top of a stone wall. Corey has his pants rolled up, covered in bandages, with a bruised face and bloody nose. His head is down, looking at where Skylar holds his hand. Skylar walks with more confidence, facing forward, but is covered in large miscolored bruises. He wears stained socks, a shirt and large T-shirt, as well as a straight long haired wig. Overtop of the drawing are doodles drawn in white pixel ink- both of them are outlined- Corey with down turned wings and an arrow through his chest, and Skylar with a halo, small wings pointed up, devil horns and a pointed tail. There are lyrics written with the same style pen: "I took a trip out to the city, said 'i'll be home before you miss me' so I never came back" and "make me forget, tell me the lies, make me believe I'm better alive"
The painting is framed with a tilted black boarder, causing a bit of visual difference and unease.
Melancholy, nostalgia, surreal, serene, memories
