Agra and Videl sketches

I was looking at old art and wanted to draw these to ladies together again. I really need to do more than 3/4th head shots 🤣 also fun with post it notes!

CHONKS

I'm doing my own october challenge called OC-tober, and since it was my boyfriend's birthday today 💖 I was going to try and do the challenge as a gift for him. He's given me a list of prompts to draw! Here are some of my first drawings of his character Dwick, and my own

Saiyan Shenanigans

I often have a hard time drawing when it comes to dynamic poses. Most of my pages you will find faces in the classic 3/4th angle 🤣

I think making up some prompts or personal challenges might help. While I was figuring all this out all these came out. The meme made me laugh since I can't...

Elly and Miang

I'm playing Xenogears with my boyfriend and it's been a lot of fun going through the story again and seeing the characters.

WIP perler project

I found a template for the FF6 sprites and wanted to make the gang. Here is what I have so far 👍

Here comes some art!

A lovely friend bought me a himi gouache set and I've been excited to use it 😊 In the last few days I've been sketching here and there. Had a sudden Naruto interest only for the fact I wanted to draw my OCs and the OCs of my friends 👌

And there is someone on instagram called Love Let...

Birthday weekend

It's not art but I wanted to share some pics from Planet Comic Con we attended over the weekend. It was a good birthday and emotional because I kept thinking how it's going to be a year of "firsts". First birthday spent without my mom, first thanksgiving/christmas without her.

I was smiling...

It's August!

And what a time it has been on this end 💖 I am still adjusting to the new home but in a good way. I find myself still grieving the past; routines, my old spaces, and my mom's presence. I know she would be totally stoked about our move though. In time this wont hurt so much. But now that I am i...

NEW ART

My boyfriend bought me a perler kit and here are my first results! It's nice to be able to create something C:

Ive always seen this stuff on GDQ and wanted to give it a try! Hope you enjoy 💖

It's been a while

Apologies for the month of silence! My boyfriend and I have moved into our new home and it's been a busy time getting everything unpacked and adjusting to everything.

Not at 100% but we're getting there. It's been overwhelming and emotional but I feel like we're in a good place. I'm away fr...

June update

I am going to move out this month! My boyfriend and I have been house searching for a while and we finally are going to make the move by the end of this month. It's scary and exciting! And a little bitter sweet. After my mom's passing, living in my current house has felt like being in limbo. We'v...

Happy MELE day!

Which character? GO!

Monkeyshines

Back in 2012 I did these series of sketches to prep myself for some comics I was going to tackle about my saiyan gods. I did two God of Eat comics, and there was one for God of Fight (the woman with the long white hair was for his story) but I didn't have a chance to get started on that one.

Bardock and Sarazade

The title of this was "Getting real tired of your crap, Sarazade" XD

One of my favorite things about finding old art is when it turns out I saved the rough sketch as well.

BFF's Agra and Videl

Many years ago when I created Agra I used to get bullied by people who said  I was "ruiining" canon by pairing Agra with Gohan, because "WHAT ABOUT VIDEL?" Gosh, looking back on it, it was bad people did NOT like OC x canon ships back then. I see people encouraging it now which makes me happ...

Color palette requests

Tried a meme where people sent in a swatch of colors and a character and you had to draw using only those colors. Here were some of them that I did that I'm most proud of.

Aralakh Company

After playing ME3 I created a group of krogan to play on tumblr as Grunt's Aralakh Company. Kron, Turak, Uvnar, Vuk and Zoar <3 I had a lot of fun with their shenanigans and writing stories about them with my friend, Dan. They have all found a place on the CDN boards, except Uvnar. Maybe one d...

Scarlet T. Shepard

With Mass Effect Legendary Edition right around the corner I'm reminiscing about the first time I played. This was my Shepard, who I based off of Sigourney Weaver. The joke about the T stood for "the" so she was Scarlet The Shepard haha. I dont know if I want to play as her again or create someon...

2013 Branka

Another old piece! I drew this back when I was posting in tumblr's ME RP community. I was slowly getting the knack of drawing krogan, but didn't quite make the humps as big as they should be.

Drau Kron: BDE (BIG DAD ENERGY)

More old art that Ive uploaded on my retired tuchanka blog years ago. This is my big krogan boy, Kron. Shaman of his clan, DILF, and absolute unit!

Agra

Hey all, I'm still dealing with personal issues and my own grieving but I don't want to have this place go entirely quiet. Here are some older sketches of my first DBZ OC, Agra!

I was thinking of doing some small commissions through ko-fi, I'll make a post about that when I get that set up....

Update

It's been a little over a month since everything happened. I am still grieving and getting help from wonderful people with some personal matters at home.

For those who aren't on tumblr I want to give my heartfelt thanks for the support given here on my patreon and ko-fi. The boost in donat...

Taking a break

As mentioned before it's been busy with helping my mom. Unfortunately things turned for worst unexpectedly, and my dear mom passed away yesterday 😔

It's all I really want to say on the matter as Ive spent the last 24 hours on little sleep and talking with family about more than I want to...

The indomitable Lina Inverse

BEHOLD! ART! I finally broke in my new sketchbook. It's been lying around in my view but I've always been too tired to doodle something.

Lately I've been introducing my boyfriend to Slayers and I suddenly wanted to draw the fierce and all powerful sorceress!

January update

Hey all, my first update for 2021! A lot has happened in two months and I didn't want this to go completely silent.

My mom and I recovered from covid 👏👏👏 but it took a lot of her especially since she was high risk. So I have spent most of my time caring for her. It's slow going, of...

Comic - For better or worse

Ive been sick over the past week and got sad news that I tested positive for covid and I'm feeling really bleh and scared. It's been mildish, but so far no improvement. Just fingers crossed its all okay 🥺💖

In the meantime I have been keeping busy with my art. Even did another sketch c...

Comic - Me going hog wild on a ship

More pieces focused on one of my OC's and the dynamic I threw them in with Longarm/Shockwave. He's always been my fav of the series and his role in Animated is probably my most fav since he's a double agent, one of the few characters in the show with a body count, and rather than having the perso...

Sketches ahoy!

More pieces as I barrel through the last week of the month. I wanna thank everyone for sticking with me as I hyper fixated on Transformers stuff so suddenly.

At one point Ill have to write some bios and character notes on these OCs C: sometimes I feel rude drawing something out of nowhere a...

Ridge loves THICC mechs

And I love my patrons for sticking with me all this time! It's thank your patrons day and come saturday it'll be three years since I joined here 👍

I've always struggled with confidence when it came to my art, and even now I have this shyness when it comes to posting art, even when it's ...

More TFA art!

Dropping another collection of sketches I did in the last several days. I also binge watched all of Transformers Animated 🤣👌

I was getting back into drawing some of the canon characters and revisiting ships.

I had my Oc Dash paired with Bumblebee and decided a rivalry-to-friend...
