Hi #Portfolioday !

I'm Chicken, I'm a digital freelance artist! I like drawing cute and happy things but also dabble into fantasy themes from time to time. Drawing backgrounds is my favorite thing!

As the weather turns colder, Oswald enjoys one last evening outside in his yard with a can of his favourite beer.

Art by @kraest.bsky.social

A picture of Oswald, an anthropometric bull, sat outside his trailer overlooking an arid western USA scene.

He is sat in a folding chair, relaxing with a can of beer. His shirt is open, revealing his chest. Oswald's expression and posture is at ease and content.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.

His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.

A massive loss 💔

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

Fable 3 was such a let down in so many ways.

Charles Cecil says that using AI to upscale artwork for Broken Sword: Reforged was a mistake. "The result was not enormously satisfactory," he says. Instead, Revolution ended up redrawing the backgrounds from scratch, using the original artwork as a reference.

"Monarchies are superior overall to republics in both preserving national stability and individual freedoms, but it's truer to American political tradition and heritage to maintain the republic no matter how dysfunctional it may be."

I may need a bigger sign.

Showing up to No Kings with a sign reading “monarchy is an affront to human dignity but, when incorporated into a liberal democratic system, may nevertheless be a useful safety valve for nationalist and/or authoritarian impulses” and then getting clobbered by a Buttigieg-supporting grandmother

Jo Kershaw @mthrjo.bsky.social · 1d

Incidentally, I’ve been chafing a bit at the “No Kings” thing, because there are loads of monarchies that have more limits on executive power than the US does, but it has the great advantage that it makes Americans who want to oppose it sound, well, unamerican….

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

🐮🔥 COVER REVEAL TIME 💚🐺
Another amazing illustration by @caraid.bsky.social. Look at those colors! The buffalo's name is Lune, and you'll meet her VERY SOON, because Feral Flame will release NOVEMBER 11!
#NossSaga #BookSky 🌈📚

Cover for Feral Flame - Book Four of the Noss Saga, by Joaquín Baldwin. A one-horned buffalo holds her hands forward to control a green flame shaped like a running wolf. Her brown fur is draped with long white fabrics that flow in the wind and blend into the pink mist behind her. Her horn is decorated with golden caps and rings, her nose and ears pierced. Her green eyes stare directly at the viewer.

Darkstar likes to help small towns out when he's traveling around. From small tasks to monster bounties, he's willing to take on anything. Sometimes when with a friend, he'll convince them to take on bigger tasks! And Mori is one of those trusted friends to travel with!
