Hey there, I'm Bob! Your local non-binary trans man here to enthuse about art, video games, and OCs~

I love cute, cozy, whimsical fantasy and sci-fi characters paired with a large spoonful of utter silly nonsense and tragedy

#art
A "Meet the Artist" page. Has a cartoon drawing of a light skinned trans guy with short brown hair, smiling eyes, and a flamingo-patterned shirt with a tiny anthro creature with pink, brown, and light beigey fur using a balloon to float next to the person. There are a variety of stickers with things like rainbows, hearts, celestial things, acorns, unicycles, a moth, crystals, and things. There's a trans flag, an aro/ace flag, and a polyamorous flag. Information says Bob - 30 - He/They/Ey - White - USA Likes: Cats, silly sci-fi/fantasy, monsters, whimsy Hobbies: Drawing, roleplaying, rambling, video games esp. ISAT And there are the faces of five cats who are labelled Nemo, Dory, Teddy, Boston, and Abby. Everyone but Boston is a black shorthair, and Boston is a fluffy colorpoint.

A digital drawing of River, a pink tiefling-like woman, in jester-looking outfit with a cape. She's winking and standing in a showy sort of way with a hand out, green and yellow fire swirling behind her.

Drawing for @erradox.bsky.social and Pika of our characters on a coaster.

Admittedly, Caspian (Pika's in the top right) is not a part of this group of characters and would HATE to be forced to be on a rollercoaster with everyone, but we like to put him in situations. Sorry, Caspian.

#art #OCArt
A drawing of four humanoid fantasy and sci fi OCs on a roller coaster. Uni is holding his hands up excitedly, Caspian is wearing a helmet and uncomfortable, Rad is stressed, and Dar is excited.

You have to block them immediately. The full nuclear. They are only here to make folks angry, and that can’t happen if we lock them out.

Quote with your purple art 💜

My OC, Íris Santana Fujioka ( イーリスサンタナ藤岡), 21yo, also known as AME/haru, one of the members of my fiction band drizzle/LAND. Digital art featuring her from the torso-up, and she's posing like this is a promo for the band or something like that. AME is Japanese / Brazilian, her skin is dark, and her shoulder-length hair is wavy and black, with the underside dyed pink. Her eyes have epicanthic folds, like many East-Asian people do, and they are violet-purple in color. She's wearing a "stage" outfit, one she would wear in a drizzle/LAND performance, all purple with golden embroideries, and a see-through cape that resembles dragonfly wings. She's smiling, posing with a purple flower in her hand, and the same flowers also decorating her hair.

Portrait grown in forget me nots. The forget me nots have grown up along the lines of a skull face. ("I'll see you on the other side.") Blue figure laying among forget me nots. Dragon faces grow among them too

Coming in late for #DragonAppreciationDay
#art
Digital art of a huge dragon rearing up in the distance, beyond rolling hills and mountains and clouds. Its wings are spread out, disturbed grass and dust swirling in the foreground as barely visible flocks of birds fly away from the dragon. The dragon looks up towards the sky, a full moon visible in the sky above as well as a few stars. A digital art of a long serpentine dragon with many wings, dark purple/black with glowing purple marks that resemble eyes at the ends of the feathers. It is curled around a black hole in space with stars and nebulas in the background Digital art of a dragon rearing up from black clouds, wings open and covered in star like speckles. Behind the dragon the sky is dark at the edges of the canvas, growing lighter from shades of dusky blue to pink to yellow, where a large crescent moon glows brightly. Digital art of an angel in the form of a long dragon with many wings along the length of the of its body. The dragon is nearly black with glowing yellow eyes and blue mouth, glowing golden rays extending off his face. Behind the head is a faded and broken halo, and golden shackles hang from his wrists. His body grows smaller into the distance on the background of space and stars.

My OC River with some threatening fire magic, for fun.

This one was real fun to color. I just kinda played around with things and it ended up pretty fun

A drawing of a tiefling-looking woman holding up a hand with green fire magic coming off it. She's snarling and the fire is casting harsh green light on her.

I stopped using sticker mule absolute ages ago because of the owner’s bullshit. The owner is still on his bullshit, so if you use sticker mule, maybe don’t. StickerAPP is a good alternative, and also there’s most likely a local sticker printer near you (Sticker Ninja in Portland, for example).

The latest move by Sticker Mule's owner. Please don't give these people your money (or honestly send them your artwork, you never know).
A Facebook post by Sticker Mule's owner Anthony Constantino. The post says "I support ICE ICE BABY. If you want a FREE T-shirt DM me your email". It has an image linked of a black shirt with ice-looking text reading "I support ICE ICE Baby"

An attempt to learn to emulate a traditional painting digitally, for in-universe character portraits. Rad was a bit of an ambitious one to start with, since he's so dang complicated with his markings and gradients. But I was compelled... You see, I love him.

[ #oc #fantasy ]
A digital drawing with textures and brush strokes meant to look like a traditional painting. The subject is oc Rad, a humanoid with long pointed ears, a round nose, and a more pronounced lower lip. He has light brown skin that has rosette spots visible on his cheeks and neck, and he has glowing gold eyes. His hair is mostly dark red as well as his facial hair, but a top front section has an orange to yellow gradient with spots between the gradients. He's also wearing a fur capelet on his shoulders and a dark tunic beneath that, and his ears are pierced with a gold hoop in the lobe and a gold stud in the auricle.

Digital art of a gossamer worm drifting through deep dark water, a mostly transparent bioluminescent creature with many arms and a red stripe running down its body. Softly glowing particles float in the water around it

#art #dragon
Digital art of a dragon cast almost entirely in darkness, the only source of light being the fire burning within its body, showed by gaps similar in appearance to twining branches. The dragon’s tail curls behind it, its wings pulled close and converging in front.
