Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it! :)
Just a simple sketch of Clarice without her hood on. I don’t know why but this strange creature has been on my mind a lot. Also yes I’ve decided that she’s simply bald because I think it’s funny 
Had to do a fucked up self portrait for my illustration class. 
We couldn’t draw in our usual style, but we were allowed to choose a well known painter as our inspiration for our portraits. I choose this painting from Jan Toorop since I really liked the colors.
Oh yeah and this was my first time using photoshop and Jesus maybe it’s just me but i genuinely don’t like drawing or painting in that program. But yeah, closest thing you guys will get to seeing my actual face lol.
Sorry for being quiet lately been busy as hell working on my illustration class finial project. We’re doing visual storytelling, so we have to draw 3 pieces that connect and tell a cohesive story. Here’s one of the pieces I’ve made decent progress on. I’ll show the other 2 pieces once I’m fully done with everything. Lord have mercy this is due on Tuesday so I’m going to grind it out this weekend. Also yes homegirl’s body is really wack I’m going to fix everything up I’m unfortunately really rushing my whole process lol
Lastly as a small treat you guys can see my initial sketch before my story got approved. I think I’ve come a long way haha.

Done. Had to present our pieces today. My class really liked my work, but frankly I think it’s pretty basic. Unfortunately I didn’t work on this as much as I should have, due to my cat dying a few days ago. I’m better now, but I couldn’t focus enough to really work on my pieces, regardless it’s done.
Story is that bro is exploring an haunted house, and uh oh weird Lovecraft shit is happening now. Yeah she’s probably fine…..
Anyways here are the first two pieces

Finally got this done, had to rush this since I gotta work on an important commission, but I do want to make more fanart of the game in the near future. Also sorry guys if my art has been kinda stale with the poses and compositions I plan to change things up pretty soon

Sorry lol. Site crashed on my phone for a second this should work now
Have some good news! My art got accepted to be part of a local art gallery event in late June. I’m actually surprised that one of my pieces that I made for my class finial was the piece that got accepted. But anyways I’m really happy to see that my recent art has been getting some good attention in my local area. It Sounds kinda lame but it gives me a lot of motivation to keep going with my art, and that I might make a career out of it.
Ok sappy shit aside here’s a picture of Ruth, my weird white woman, in a frame.

MASSIVE DELTARUNE SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 3 PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT LOOK IF YOU CARE!
Ok that shit aside, I have been consumed by DR, and I knew I had to immediately draw the knight. I may be basic but I’m a firm Dess knight believer so that’s why there’s major deer motifs in the design. But yeah currently a wip I’m redrawing this sprite

This weirdo is done. Had a lot of fun with this even though I really did rush it. Now I kinda wanna draw the amalgamates from UT now. Something to think about it.

Ok I made some small changes on this. Somebody commented that this was hurting their eyes so I made the background a bit darker to. Hopefully that’ll fix things, also this is probably a good reminder I need to get a new prescription for my glasses lol
Ok this simple idea of drawing my art persona quickly got out of hand lol. Not my best work and the color palette is pretty ugly, but I kinda like it in a weird way. Will draw this weird saxophone guy more and give them more stuff to have so they’re not so bare. But regardless this was a nice small departure from what my recent pieces look like.

Stop no you’re honestly so right this does give off psychedelic vibes lol
Small story behind this rough sketch. One of my best friends is playing Deltarune for the first time and she’s currently stuck on Jevil. I made a joke that I was gonna draw him flipping her off or something, but now I feel like the sketch is too good to just be a funny inside joke now lol. Probably still gonna draw him doing the middle finger, but yeah first time drawing him and he’s actually pretty fun to draw.
Latest piece I’m working on right now. I got commissioned by a indie dev to make some cover art for their indie horror game. I got permission from the client to post this wip in this thread and to also post the finial piece once it’s done.
Was a bit worried about this comm since even though it’s for a small game it’s still a game dev commissioning me, a little nerve wracking to me lol. Regardless I’m happy he likes the sketch so now it’s time to ink and color this bad boy
Finally got this done. It’s pretty simple but I’m glad the dev likes it. Hopefully in the future I’ll get paid to do something like this again
I’ll post more art soon of this game. But anyways I’m taking part of a dungeon crawler game jam this summer as the artist and musician. Main premise of the game is that you can swap out your body parts with the limbs of killed enemies.
Here’s a rough concept sketch of one of the main bosses. Used to be an ordinary bishop but overtime he became a kind of a rat like monster. He runs a cult in the dungeon where he encourages his followers to become these awful rat human hybrids. Think of the spider cult in Dark souls 2.
Kinda hard to tell since this is a rushed sketch but underneath his robes are multiple rat tails. A nice reference to Rat kings seen in nature

Ok Damm this game project is basically dead. Won’t get into heavy details but I’m getting tried of doing game jams and then it falls apart just because of poor time management. Anyways I have written too much lore so im unfortunately really attached to this project. I really want to make what I have into a zine now, almost like a fake manual for a fake game. Since I’ve drawn up UI elements, concept art, lore. You name it. Shit sucks but I’ll try to show off what I made soon

Please, do what you can to salvage your work. I absolutely understand how that feels.
Unfortunately it just seems to be the case for indie game projects - for every success there are a thousand that don't make it, just because a lot of people underestimate the value of proper project management or setting reasonable goals.

Yeah this is one of the many woes when it comes to making games even stuff for game jams. I’m starting to think maybe dungeon crawlers are cursed since everytime I do a game jam based on that genre everything falls apart haha. But regardless I’m definitely going to do something with the shit I’ve made. One of the positives I do see about this is that now I have more time to refine the art and lore. Rather than rush everything due to the deadline.

Dungeon crawlers aren't cursed! They're just a kind of RPG! And RPGs are complicated and stupid hard to make!
I'm not surprised a lot of people trying to make them end up realizing they bit off more than they can chew. That's why I avoid trying to make one like the plague - I don't have it in me to get through that long of a gamedev process (yet?) and I'm not great at the kind of number crunching required to make a well-balanced RPG.
What you do with my two cents is up to you.

Quick Gaster sketch. First time drawing him and I just went on autopilot. I’ll probably finish it whenever I have free time but I probably won’t make him into a full post here. The piece is pretty simple and I rather post something that has a bit more effort. Besides I feel like I need to switch things up with what I usually post here.

I love your interpretation of him, kind of... gruesome, almost? His neck looks all twisted around.

Thanks so much!! And yeah the fucked up neck was on purpose haha. I’m such a sucker when people draw him weird and uncanny so I was aiming to do something similar even with this simple sketch.
