Collab commission with @squirrelcurls.bsky.social for @oran-stailinne.bsky.social's husband!
(he doesn't have a bluesky so next best thing 🤭)
A human with freckled skin stands while holding their House Deneith shield. They wear dark chainmail with their breastplate, followed by leather and metal bracers and brown leather gloves. Tan poofy pants that rest at the knee, with knee high boots covered in a leather cover. A sword scabbard hangs at the waist with a red belt.

Comic commission for @wanderer-archive.bsky.social ! 🦢🦁
A comic of a angellic, winged woman and a lion-esque man. Panel 1: the woman leans in to kiss the lion man, his one eye wide in surprise. Panel 2: the woman pulls back, revealing the Lion's expression of awe and surprise. He is blushing. Panel 3: the woman brings her hand up near her face as she looks back at the lion man, blushing as well. Panel 4: bringing her fingers to her lips, she blushes harder as she speaks. "... I..." Panel 5: the woman runs away at horrific speeds, leaving the Lion man stunned in place. She yells out behind her "I AM GOING TO MAKE US SOME TEA!"

Love me a good magma board session teehee
A drawing of a fire genasi with glowing markings on her face. Her hair burns at the tips as she cracks her gauntletted hands. A drawing of an older man with an excellently coiffed beard and mustache. He winks at the camera as he puts up a gloved hand to make a small heart that materializes in blue light.

And where the hell have you two been?
Designs of the Gravekeeper (left) and the Ghost (right) of my upcoming project, A Dead Name. The Gravekeeper wears a wide-brimmed black hat atop shaggy blue hair. They have a yellow scarf and a grey coat over a pair of overalls that are fitted into rubber boots. In one hand, they hold a crook from which a lantern hangs with a blue glow inside it. The Ghost is a pale-blue specter with a scowl on her face. She has yellow, sunken eyes and pronounced cheekbones, along with sharp, pointed ears and claws. Her hair is two-toned, black on the outside and a bright unnatural blue on the inside.

I can't wait to find out who she is
A sketch of a young woman with pointed ears and unkempt, wavy hair held by a headband. She has makeup under her eyes that resembles long washes, and a clear jacket that ends at chunky bracelets with similar lashes engraved.
