🌟 A Cry For Help: My Family’s Struggle To Survive In Gaza 🌟

My girlfriend had a comic idea and I just HAD to translate and draw it

Welcome to my art, where I only draw refs for characters I never use. Today’s instalment is Void, a character who used to have a purpose (and might again someday), but is currently just a cool design I have.

As their latest lore goes, Void is the spirit of death. They don’t do any of the soul collecting, though. They’re more of a shepherd. They oversee an army of little grim reaper creatures who bring the souls back to the afterlife, where Void tends to them. Void’s gender is ambiguous because they never speak out loud, and they have no obvious physical traits to identify biological sex. They don’t care what people call them, so people just pick whatever works.

This character has sort of been slotted into an idea I had that, in a dream scenario, would be some kind of game. Imagine Creatures of Sonaria but the survival aspects are better. Of course, I lack the motivation and skill to make that idle dream a reality, so it’ll probably never happen. In this hypothetical game, Void would be an NPC that you can do missions for.

Anyway, I’d write more (is it weird to make descriptions long on Tumblr?) but it’s almost midnight and I’m. So tired. See you guys (all 18 of you, wow) tomorrow. If things go to plan, I’ll be posting again on Jan 1st because I do a yearly redraw on New Year’s Eve/Day. I’m excited to work on it. I feel like I’ve improved a lot with my scene art this year, and unless I get lazy I'll probably try to paint it so that might turn out cool. Ok bye

ooh

OMG

THE CURTAINS FLEW, AND THEN HE APPEARED

Don't come at me, I'm the main character and you have to like me.

Rambling under the cut

The character here is Firestar from Warriors. I'd tentatively recommend reading the books if you haven't read them, but I'm not confident people will like them as they have their problems. Although most of the problems show up after the books that feature Firestar. He's supposed to be a Somali cat here. There wasn't any reason for drawing him. I just default to cats with my art experiments because they're easy to draw. And I did a study last night and I wanted to put the stuff I remembered to good use.

I'm trying to experiment with art that mimics traditional art, specifically the doodles I like to draw in class and stuff. This was really my first attempt and I think it turned out good so yeah!

Also, this is my first art piece of the year! Well, the first finished one. The New Year's Redraw is coming... eventually... I'm not too fussed about that coming out on time because I'm not usually on time with them anyway. One of them took four months and another was just never finished because it looked so ugly. This year's version will hopefully turn out very good, but I'll have to see. Anyway. Thanks to all my followers and stuff, and here's to a good year. Maybe I'll even open commissions.

Sadness repellent

Hi! I wanna share something special!

I have an OC named Manitari whom I adore. She’s a mushroom cat I made with @aposterous ! She’s been getting a lot of attention on Art Fight and the entires are absolutely BEAUTIFUL, so I want to show you them!

Firstly, this is Manitari:

She’s a giant autistic fluffer who lives in a cottage in the woods and her special interest is mushrooms! This ranges from cooking to gardening to… um… getting high…

But now! Onto her attacks!

Aposterous!
