I stumbled upon a website that allows you to blend any colors evenly no matter how opposite on the spectrum they are.

sharing the knowledge

very helpful art resource

I am obsessed with how Ampharos sits in the anime, so I had to draw Mega Ampharos in the same fashion.

The Creator-

Were we created in Their image or were They created in our image?

Skin made of scrolls depicting the written history of the world.

Eyes at every level to gaze upon the land, sky, and heavens.

A cloak that embodies space, the sky, the rivers and oceans.

Hair as bright as the sun.

And a face that reflects back the visage of those who view Them.

The chosen heroes of the current story- Una, Xylitol, Lila, and Lamore- all have their own stories to forge with their hands... But are tangled together with the red string of fate...

The lore @destinationfarstar created for her world has been inspiring so much art xD

While this depiction, stylization, and added features (the arms, map, cloak etc) were my thoughts running wild; the world, the NPCs within it, and The Creator belong to far star!

Part one and part two of three pictures I've been working on for a long time now.

The third picture holds spoilers, so it will be posted later on.

It's been really exciting watching the world unfold in our DnD session and more of the characters' pasts come out.

In the most recent session, it was revealed that the moth monster following our gang of heroes was their cleric, Una, all along.

While she was not aware that she was transforming into a monster, we can only imagine how her new friends will react to this news. As the last time they encountered the monster, was in a direct fight.

Now that she is aware the monster resides within her... Who knows how she will handle this.

Absolutely love this post. I'm sure @destinationfarstar will too!

What are some chronic illnesses that can only occur in a fantasy setting?

Finalizing this project for LOST that I have been on and off messing with for years.

Each piece will be of the different Dharma Station logos and a quote or image of an event that happened within those stations.

To start them all off:

Dharma Station- The Looking Glass. "Not Penny's Boat" in the same handwriting that appears in the episode: Through the Looking Glass.

I've watched LOST many, many times. I encouraged my mom, my partner and many friends to watch it (with or without me). Whenever my mom, my partner and I rewatch it, we always get so sad the closer this episode comes up on the Playlist.

While I love the entire show, the cast, and everything about it... That is one of those episodes that makes me weep and my heart breaks.

I took an old pokemon drawing prompt and added a twist: fusing my favorite of each prompt with a friends' favorite!

This one is my beloved William's favorite Ghost type, Haunter with my Chandelure.

The hardest part of this prompt was picking a favorite ghost type! I love SO MANY. Dhelmise, Phantump, Chandelure, Giratina... The list goes on and on!

I took an old pokemon drawing prompt and added a twist: fusing my favorite of each prompt with a friends' favorite! Plus, adding their shiny variants~

With this piece, I took one of my oldest friends' favorite Genderless pokemon, Mew and fused it with my favorite, Nihilego.

This project is one I do in between other, more intensive pieces of work. It really allows me to be goofy, creative, and not focus too hard on details!

Nocturne Pluma-

My take on the moon deity that my DnD character Una follows the teachings of.

The world that belongs to our DM @destinationfarstar has been so fun to explore and draw art for!

Especially this one as we both drew our own versions/depictions of the deity since they can take whatever form they so choose.

This deity has three heads and a long neck hiding beneath the feathers and fur. That way, should she need to turn her neck, she will always keep a watchful eye (or six) out.

I have more concepts to draw for an actual reference. But I just needed to get this creation done! It was almost as though I was compelled to get it done in one day.

I have been very fortunate to meet a real life Ms. Frizzle in the form of a dear friend.

Since we work in the Rainbow Room at an elementary school, it was completely necessary to draw Nichole in each color (Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple).

Order Up!

Appletun is one of my all time favorite pokemon and I love thinking of different varieties for them. There will be more to come.

In the meantime, have some Applin and Appletun in the following flavors:

Original Apple

Peach Cobbler

Key Lime Pie

Pumpkin Pie

And with their shiny variants!

(I always forget just how tiny Appletun is until I send them out to autobattle in Violet/Scarlet and it's the cutest thing ever.)

[moth-of-everglades]

Back when Violet/Scarlet had increased Jangmo-o outbreaks, I loved watching the groups bound around like little cats.

Plus, dragons are pretty much cats, right?

What's New D'nd Crew?

I feel like our DnD gang are a pretty good mixture of Always Sunny and Scooby Doo for their goofy shenanigans. With the character development/developed story lines of LOST and Doctor Who (maybe also their goofiness thrown in there!)

[moth-of-everglades]

As a lover of The Road to el Dorado, I had to draw our Bard-arian Lamore as Miguel!

[moth-of-everglades]

-Down to the Dark Room-

I have been doing some practice in the Animation section of Clip Studio Paint (it's become a bit of an obsession)

In the most recent DnD session, Una learned that Lamore knows the spell Identify and asks if she can use it on the stained glass growing on the Halfling's skin. It's been over a year now for Una with no answers as to what's happening to her.

It recently spread, adding to her anxiety and fears.

When Lamore places her hands on Una's stained skin, she delves deep past Una's layers of clerical moon magic... Her fingers grow cold, so cold... Yet, she cannot take her hands away from the mysterious skin ailment.

Then, she sees corruption, wings fluttering... Footsteps in a deep forest. Blood.

Death... Decay... Darkness.

Something reaches forward to touch Lamore's hands through the glass.

This is what forces Lamore to let go of Una.

Una, only knows Lamore cast Identify and within a few seconds, jerked away from her.

And now her friend is very upset, after she asked for help (this is the first time in the campaign where she has allowed anyone to look at the larger pieces of her skin, touch them, and try to help diagnose her).

Needless to say, Lamore and Una's rest of the campaign session were filled with anxieties and complex thoughts.

While working on a mini comic of the event, I have been sprinkling GIF panels throughout it. For this one, I really wanted to capture that creeping feeling of dread, gripping on as Una realizes that she inadvertently hurt a friend when finally letting some of her worries go and asking for help for the first time. Especially, a friend like Lamore who is the embodiment of sunshine.
