Showing off this excellent piece I commissioned from @sarkastiklover.bsky.social! Tysm you rock! ❤️

Noah & his mom Cassie from #Tenement, my dystopian mystery about people living in an infinite building.

"Things don't have to be like this. There could be other ways. There could be other worlds."
Digital illustration by @sarkastiklover.bsky.social of Noah Walker, a young man with medium-dark skin, very short brown hair, and a loose-fitting beige shirt standing in a long narrow corridor with yellow/brown wallpaper with a rose pattern near the base, wooden floors, & a naked lightbulb hanging from a slightly cracked ceiling. He is standing back-to-back with his mom Cassie, a woman with large curly brown hair, who is looking back over her shoulder fearfully toward him. Diagonal cross-sections separate the two, with Noah in the present & colored, while Cassie is in the past & black and white. In Noah's left hand he holds the Nwissy (a compass).

Duggy DOES have social media. It's actually a small element of his story. His handle is DuggyTron3030. Normally it's a simple distraction, he doesn't put most of his business online. He's done a few live streams but was never consistent enough to get more than 2 viewers at any given time.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

For the sake of this hypothetical, your characters have social media in their world.

Do they use it? What kind of things are they posting about? Pictures, video, or text? What do they have as a profile pic?

#AwesomeCharacters Ashrah mostly posts photos of places she visits, stuff she eats (lots of stroberi), and Askaly's paintings. Her profile pic is something like in the screenshot below.

Nitara follows a bunch of artists and reposts more than posts, though she likes sharing her own art (1/5)
A selfie-style screenshot of Ashrah as she stands before a wall of red plants, a sort of not-very-smiley smile on her face (she doesn't like smiling for photos).

Daemrin's social media is just the stupidest fucking pictures of him at the gym, him at the gun range, drinking and hanging out with his friends, his spaceship, and (much later) some couple photos of him and Lex but in that dumb jock frat boy way.

Wren does not trust social media, uses a flip phone, and still has a yahoo email address she checks at the library. Spencer has a FB page where he posts notices for church events, obituaries, and motivational scriptures with animated gifs.

Alexander is in approximately one hundred simultaneous feuds, half of which are with Blackthorne's sockpuppets.

When he's not getting banned for threats and violent imagery, he's posting parkour vids and selfies showing off his latest fits.

Daisuke would have a very active social media. Pics, vids, music, articles, arguments, memes, all his thing. And a cute pfp selfie of him and Obito 🤭

Obito's would be a bit quieter, but it'd still have some memes and stuff. His pfp would be a pic of him and Daisuke that Daisuke "made" him take 🤭

Wesley makes SM account. First post = selfie w/ the cemetery where he works as a groundskeeper as background.

Owen comments about the ecological violence of monoculture lawns.

Kenzie chimes in about how all human remains should be donated to science instead of buried.

Wesley deletes his account.

posts maybe once every 1-2 months & it's mostly garden pics. He likes to go around liking & reposting other people's stuff though, especially Mireia's cute couple pictures with the goofy captions. His profile pic is his pet phoenix Aiaxi (yes it's college AU but he still has a pet phoenix, shhhh)

2/? pop into her head, getting in fights with fascists, boosting her sisters' posts and, after she starts dating Kena, cute couple pictures with goofy captions (e.g. "How did this dork get in my picture?" "Check out this absolute snack! Oh and Kena's here too") 😂

Kena has social media but he only

Gonna use my CollegeAU versions of Mimi & Kena for this one.

Mireia's on social media, profile pic is her doing something athletic, or maybe holding a surfboard on the beach. She changes it like once a month though. She's constantly posting whatever random thoughts and hot takes

I have been slowly teaching myself to do digital art. I have always drawn, particularly character portraits, but I originally learned back in ye olden times. (the 90s) I am absurdly happy with the progress I've made drawing the MC of my fantasy novel.

#Art #Wrencer #CharacterArt
A split screen of two digital character drawings showing the artist's growth over time. The drawing is a portrait of a wyoung woman with brown hair in a long braid, tan skin, and brown eyes. The woman has a skeptical expression. She is wearing a black cowl around her shoulders, a white blouse, and a dark blue vest. The first drawing is labeled as being drawn in April of 2025 and the second picture is labeled as being drawn in October of 2025.

Since it's spooky season, I'm thinking about their weird daughter a lot lately.

I love her so much. ;;

A pixel art halfbody of Nakine Matsuba, wearing a grey blouse and skirt and holding Zero, a kuraima, currently in a frog-like form. Behind her is a swirled, muted pastel paint blob on a black background.

Art was a bonus from a vgen commission from @nushdeco.bsky.social.

#PlotTober Day 13

In "Hail Santa," I want Virgil & Lucifer to actually spend time as a couple up front. I want to show the happiness that's being threatened.

So, a "not-a-honeymoon" cruise. Isolated, no work, no one who knows them. A chance to be just them.
