We don't think we've shared our art of Chrysoberyl here before! Here she is, our main Gemsona and a character we've drawn tons of. She's a shy, off-colored Spinel who loves nature!

Pick any junk food you want, deep fry it, and cover it in powdered sugar
(Okay technically the funnel cake isn't even that, it's just deep fried batter)

Another Fakemon! Here's Iron Prion, our take on a future Paradox version of Reuniclus. It's based on the structure of major prion protein, the cause of all prion disease.
#art #fanart #pokemon #fakemon #reuniclus
A small, robotic fake Pokemon encased in a green gel. Parts of the gel are shaped into arms, ears, and a nubby tail. The Pokemon's body consists of helices for its arms and tail and two flat sheets for its ears. Its body is quite small and looks fragile.

A Fakemon design! We created future and past Paradox versions of Reuniclus; here's the prehistoric one. It's based on symbiogenesis in which ancient archaea consumed bacteria that would eventually become the mitochondria.
(The shiny palette has chloroplasts instead)
#art #pokemon #fakemon #reuniclus
A fake Pokemon design showing a wobbly creature encased in a green gel. Parts of the gel are shaped to resemble wings and horns. Several red blobs are being incorporated into the gel, joining them all together. The alternate palette on the right shows a cyan-colored gel with green blobs instead. The Fakemon's name is Primal Union and it is a Psychic/Electric type.

We've been working with our personal world settings lately and it's been really fun to revisit them all! Here's a demon of the afterlife.
#art #monster #creature

An old silly Nihilego sketch page
#art #fanart #pokemon
Multiple sketchy drawings of a glass jellyfish Pokemon. Many of the poses are wispy and graceful, with the jellyfish's tentacles gently flowing around them. One of the poses looks angry, while another features several jellyfish swarming around a massive purple one. Some of the jellies are gold in color instead of the usual blue.

Some more old Undertale art we did years ago! ❤️ We did these for our UT tumblr blog; we drew Frisk and Chara tiny once and then people liked it enough to want to see more of them. That's how we ended up with a slew of tiny humans and their adventures.
#art #fanart #undertale #frisk #chara
Two teeny children sleeping on a buttercup flower. The scene around them glows in gentle golden hues Two children - one in a green and yellow sweater, the other in a blue and pink top - smiling together with a tiny frog monster Two tiny children asleep on a purple pillow Two teeny children hanging out with each other atop a lily of the valley flower
