A Splash of Color

I'm opening up commissions!

The demo for Drawquarium is out! Here are some fish I've drawn for it so far :3 I fear that making them look so nice might not be in the spirit of the game, but I'm having fun and that's what matters ^^

Fish species names are in the tags!

It's finally finished! This took 19 hours over the course of exactly two weeks. There are around 150 layers, and that's AFTER combining a whole bunch of layers since they didn't need to be separate anymore.

This was drawn for a friend! She's going to record herself playing an archipelago randomizer, and one of the games is a puzzle game that lets you upload custom photos to put together. She asked me to do the art for it, saying that anything is fine as long as it's video game-related. So I said "bet" and included stuff from a bunch of her favorite games!

Also, it's desktop-wallpaper sized :3

This one was based on a very pretty dream I had earlier this week! (It took a few days to get this done)

This started as more of a sketch and got out of hand, which is why the wicker table and the chairs are kind of messy and low-effort. By the time I got to the shading it wasn't low-effort anymore, but that doesn't change the fact that there's a bit of coloring outside the lines for the base colors on those. Oh well!

The lighting layer by itself is below the cut!

I do not and will not ever consent to having my art fed to ai.

I decided to dust off one of my old dragon OCs and redesign her! I'm not sure how many hours I spent on this, but it was definitely more than normal.

It has been long enough since I drew my dragon OCs that I forgot how to draw dragon talons 😔

I MIGHT add a background to this later, but tbh it's pretty unlikely. I hate drawing backgrounds.

This is what I remember of how my fight with Steven Stone went the first time I ever fought him. It was RIDICULOUS. 4 stacks of spikes is so many. And my strategy to set up three rounds of stockpiles? A crit would have taken me out (I didn't know that at the time though) and I WAS NUZLOCKING!! Thanks to there being so many spikes, I knew if I switched Hg out the rest of my pokemon would be screwed, so she had no choice but to solo the fucking champion.

If you're thinking "but Kalimar, spikes only stack up to three times!" You would be correct! I checked my nuz notes (AFTER drawing the comic, rip) to check how exactly the fight actually went, and it turns out Steven only stacked spikes three times instead of four. I did stockpile three times though.

My notes on the fight are below the cut. I might draw the whole thing someday, but that day is not today.

I do not and will not ever consent to having my art fed to ai.

Finally redid an old sketch I liked! (Original sketch is below the readmore) I wanted to use it as my icon when I originally drew it in 2014 or so, but I'm happy with my icons now. Maybe I could use it as a banner??

Happy Nudivember!! Here are two of my favorite sea slugs to celebrate! The festive sea slug (top) and the pink dorid nudibranch (bottom).

Made a logo for a friend's shop! She specifically requested that the butterfly look like it was drawn by a child.

Her shop is called Bridgidisms and it's on both etsy and shopify. She mainly sells dresses for 18-inch dolls, but she also makes some very well-made zipper bags and embroidered earrings!

Here's my contribution to Artober! No prompt, I just wanted to draw my friend and I's first mystery dungeon duos. The two on the right are mine!

I went fancy on the shading because I wanted to try something new. And it worked! …Mostly. I'm happy with it anyway.

Made fennekin if it had a winter form! The ear floofies are not grapes. They're meant to look like clouds, but it's been a long time since I shaded something fluffy so I definitely missed on that 😅

Anyway this was drawn and colored with a cheap 10-colors-in-one pen from dollar tree!

Saw this cutie in a dream! I helped make the clothing parts of the costume, while the mimikyu made the lucario parts of the costume! I called it Lucarimikyu

---

Buizel in aroace colors for pride month! You can hardly tell the difference between this and buizel's normal colors XD

---

I saw this cutie in a dream and HAD to draw it. It's the (nonexistent) previous evolution for Giratina! It's meant to specifically be for the altered form, but I also took inspiration from the origin form in a couple of places.

Startina is named both for its star-shaped ornamentation and the fact that it is the START of the Giratina line.

This one is another emote done for a discord contest! It didn't end up winning but I'm still pretty happy with it considering I whipped it up in less than an hour.

---

Here are some emotes I did for a discord sticker contest! The character isn't mine. TianTian belongs to the Fluffnest gaming and plush company umbrella.

Here are some alternate forms for Finneon and Lumineon based on another dream! They were water/fairy types.
