For this month's xchange, I got my pal Yami (yeah, again!) and this time I chose to draw her character, Beelzebub. I've drawn him before, but not a fullbody and not since his design changes. His tail maw is super rad, so I drew that and, uh, attached the rest of him to it, hah!
I hope you like it. Here's the lineart.

I'm working on developing a looser style and while this was not entirely successful (because it is far too polished), I really like how it came out, and it was a great step forward.
These are my byondi characters (left to right) Aliss, Azukai, Bey, and Di. They're a cute little friend group who like to hang out in the park, eat yummy snacks, and write fanfiction.
Here's the lineart.
I want to draw my characters (and other byondi) way more this year! Most of it will be sketches but some lucky ones will get a polished ref. I recently finished these three references!
These two refs are for Di's beast form - one of his pure appearance and one of his corrupted appearance. The truth is that he is not usually completely either, and his "typical" appearance is a blend of the two in a piebald-looking fashion.
The third ref is for Azukai, Di's girlfriend.
These two are the same as depicted in this post. She only got minor design updates but I'm so much more satisfied with this version than the previous one. Would like to do their common forms soon but that will likely come as some sketches instead of refsheets.
Oh my gosh, it's the end of the year already. I feel like I didn't get anything done! One commitment I'm making for 2026 is to make more stuff, and I don't care if it didn't come out how I wanted, or if I'm not good at drawing that thing. I just want to make a bunch of messy art, even if it's bad. And I'm gonna post it here!
Speaking of uploading, I wonder if I should make a separate blog for Nailshead in the same way I have a separate blog for Y'ren? Not sure.
But I suppose it's time for the 2025 Art Summary, and also something I finished this month.
I made this for my secret santa xchange where I drew Bluejay for Atrocias. I have no idea why I painted it and I have no idea why I wanted to emulate bas-relief but here it is! It took much longer than I would have liked, but I'm very happy with the results.
And here is my summary for the year. I would have liked to draw something every month but hopefully I'll be able to do that next year. Thanks everyone for hanging around this year! Hope to see you in the next.
I got my pal, Yami, for the xchange a couple months ago and of course I'm not going to turn down drawing another byondi. I want to see more byondi in their common forms so here is Mei'shir!
Tried some new things in this one and some might stick and some might not. Pretty happy with it though cx

So. I've got a new IP somewhat suddenly (last year, but I haven't shared anything from it until recently). It came out of nowhere and I'm just trying to hang on. I've been having some personal crises over this IP which is all kinds of subjects I don't know how to draw (humans, tech, interactions), but I'm doing my best.
I'm planning a rather huge project for this IP because it is begging me to depict it in the form of a comic (which is another thing I do not know how to draw). I don't know how long that will take me but so far the journey is interesting.
The story is called Nailshead.
For now, I've made refs of the two main characters. There will be minor character refs coming later.
I also made these refs which are not relevant to the early story, but how could I possibly resist?
That's about it for now!
Here's a piece I worked on recently of my character, Shuyok. This was originally intended to be a spotlight piece on his ref, but I decided to separate it (I'm changing my approach to refs). I have been enjoying showing love to byondi and characters from Y'ren, and I knew I wanted to go all out on a background for this one too.
My approach for this one was a bit different as I'm trying to find a balance between the level of detail in my works and the amount of time they take. Here, I kept the amount of detail I wanted but reduced the actual fidelity of the detail a bit. It definitely WAS faster, but there are some things lacking about the final result that are a little bit disappointing for me. I have some ideas on what to try next in this balance experiment, but I can enjoy the outcome of this piece regardless! Here it is.
As you can see, it's a bit looser than Monty was. Here's the lineart.
Of course there are still plenty of detail shots worth sharing. Hope you enjoyed this one!
I took a hiatus at the end of last year because of some major life changes that are only just now settling. I was a bit disappointed to not accomplish my art goals, and I'm a bit disappointed that I have barely started and it's already March, but I'm here and I'm ready to start trying! Here's some stuff I made since I last posted.
I did a couple pieces for my art xchange - Agathos for R Hoke and Ceto for ArgosDen. I don't suppose I'll ever get tired of or away from drawing floaty poses. It's just a Shin-ism, I suppose!
I also played with a new sketchy style - rough but polished? I like it. I'd like to try more of these. This is Jessica for Savrin and Jokero for robutts.
And I did a little cutie as a warm-up, as I've been recovering from surgery. Sidian for Stasanie.
I have some ambitious, albeit unorganized art plans for this year. Fingers crossed I can accomplish them and have the courage to share them.
I did a trade with Avineahrksol where I drew her character, Miharu! This boy has so much beautiful art, I really wanted to do him justice and when I got started, I really couldn't stop my hand from dumping nature all over the sketch. I just had a wonderful time putting him in this environment.
I started this one in January and spent so many hours on every aspect. I'm grateful to have had so much company on Twitch! I've shared this lineart before, but here it is again, along with a few details.

I wanted to draw something nice for a friend who was under the weather, and I thought it would be cool to make some matching portraits of two of her characters! I really love these characters and wanted to showcase their duality.
The orange one is named Mizer and the blue one is Korzel, and they belong to Yamilink. I hope you like 'em.
Here are the singles if you prefer it that way.

A while back, I adopted Augs from an xchange event where they did not receive artwork. I decided to draw their character, Monty, who is one of my original species, Y'ren. Monty is such a lovely and unique design, I've been meaning to seriously draw her for a while! The event didn't require anything this detailed, but as I worked on thumbnailing my idea, it got out of control and I didn't want to stop it. I have been working on the two versions of my style - a "normal" style and a "lineart hell" one - and wanted to go all-in on this piece.
Of course I can't draw every piece this way, but I'm glad to have done it for Monty. I am really delighted with how it came out. Here are some detail shots.
Hey! If you didn't know, I stream on Twitch! One reward I made for viewers to use Channel Points on is the Community Board. Viewers can redeem points to add their (dragon) character to the board. When the board fills up, I post it and start a new one!
This is the second board I've done and it's all been a roller coaster so far! It's both exciting and exhausting, and has been full of learning new things - in the case of this one, I'm not really a chibi artist! I spent a lot of time doing my very best on the style.
I drew all the characters individually, so I think they deserve to be posted separately also! I hope you like them.
Well hey, It's been a minute! I've been very busy and have some things to share with you. I've been doing a lot of work so far this year on my art journey and while I'm mostly finding out that my goals are too ambitious, I'm happy I've tried the things I'm trying. I've just finished this piece above as part of an xchange with friends - I got Sumoka, and this is their character Fooshe! I'm revisiting the good ol' "floaty pose" of days past and admit it's still one of my favorite things to do. I'd like to do more of them.
In Feb, I drew this piece for myself and Ryo for Valentine's day! I fell in love with the noisy look of the technique in this Youtube video and wanted to test it. Highly recommend trying it out. Also! I think Lhyz and Ryo turned out nicely.
The last update I have for you today is the lineart of a big piece I've been working on! This is Avineahr's Miharu. It has certainly been more involved than I thought it would be when I started with the sketch but I have learned so much so far. I'm going to begin coloring it soon - please keep my sanity in your thoughts.
Well, that's about it! I hope you're hangin' in there.
Got my pal Avineahr in an art xchange amongst friends, and decided to try my hand at her character by the same name in her elder wyvern form! I did another one of these blurry portraits - I really enjoy doing them and think they'll be a staple in my art production - and tried to do something interesting with the lighting. I hope you like it!
Shegoran has recently been working on some really charming designs that are reminiscent of some beautiful chickens. I absolutely could not resist obtaining some of these designs, so say hello to Finley (brown/gray) and Goss (white/black)!
They're Shin's best pals and together, they're a total chaos machine. I imagine that they're a constant nuisance and if they didn't have jobs, they would probably be kicked out of town xD
Their designs might change a bit as I explore through sketches, but they'll likely stay pretty similar to what you see here. I hope to draw them a lot this year!

I participated in a Secret Santa xchange amongst friends and got sashawren (bsky). She listed her two byondi characters and I couldn't resist drawing them! But why pick one when I could draw both? Why not add more characters? Okay, so I went a little far on this one, but I was inspired to depict a canon scene with these beloved characters. From left to right is Yoi, Ryu (in the window), Spek (the cat), Iangden, and Wren. I wanted to make this really special and I put so much work into every aspect, from the composition to the colors to the decorating, etc. and I learned so much. I hope you like it! Here are a few more versions for you to enjoy.

I did an art trade with lunarevenant and created a banner featuring their character named Mochi! He is a sort of moon spirit and his markings remind me of stars, so I thought a sky/space theme would be neat. I hope you like it!
Here are a few alternate versions for you to enjoy. And, if you're interested, a 4k wide version can be downloaded by my Ko-fi supporters here.
