Just wanted to share this cropped snippet of art, the first time I've drawn our fave punks in almost a year. Too spicy to post the finished piece, but goddamnit, it turned out gorgeous. Look at them! Next piece of them will also be spicy, damn these two!

A couple of birthday gifts for some friends. :)

Some Cult of the Lamb fanart! A friend got me into this game and it’s so fun! 

On Ponyisland.net I made a bisonpony cosplay for Lamb, so the first piece reflects those bison features. :> Drag image for a surprise!

The second piece(s) is of my in-game Lamb and his first and most faithful follower (and husband), Rabble! This little wolf has already grown old and died, but has been resurrected and bestowed with a skull necklace to double his lifespan this time. uwu I wasn’t sure which fleece I liked best so I decided to save both versions, haha!

Just for fun, one of those Face Your Art compilations I did a while ago. Featuring Marchosias, Hellhound form Marchosias, Tabbris, Pythius, and then yours truly!

Huh, I guess it’s been a hot minute since I’ve updated over here. Probably partially because my blog gets no traction here (not that Twitter is much better), but also just because my art’s been so sporadic here lately with the stresses of RL around every corner. But all that aside, I’ve got a nice handful of pieces of Marchosias and Tabbris that haven’t been uploaded to this blog yet that I’m still really pleased to share anyway. The newest pieces are the sketches on the bottom row. The first just a sensual sketch I was feeling at the time, the second a hurt/comfort scene that we just wrote in their story. ;v; 

The other newest ones from this year would be 1.) the very first, where my partner and I were talking about how it would be funny if miss grouchy mcscowlfeathers over here was ticklish! Oh boy, will Marchosias absolutely exploit that knowledge with delight when he finds out. xD and 2.) the first in the second row where I wanted to do a series of anatomy studies by doodling some sparring/kickboxing sketches of the two. Still hoping to do that one day.

The rest are pieces from 2021 that I’ve done here and there. Holiday mistletoe and ugly winter sweater shenanigans, some cute stuff. Another hurt/comfort scene, this one of the emotional variety as they discuss Marchosias’ traumatic past, and finally one angee Tabbs drawn to the lyrics of “Brittle” by Icon for Hire!

I’m too lazy to make separate posts for each so here we are!

.. I made some cool music clips to my art of Tabbris and Marchosias and threw them up on Tik Tok. I pulled an all-nighter by accident (thanks hyperfocus) and I am smitten with them. 🥺 Please check them out if you feel so inclined! 💖

One piece for Mermay with impeccable timing, featuring Merchosias struttin’ his stuff and some fancy fins. Based off of a black and gold betta fish to match his hair and flair, I am rather smitten with how he turned out here! ;)

A bunch of pony commissions for several folks on Pony Island. :)

Did a headshot of @fiendish-whispers’s incubus lad, Asmodeus. A demon who has a pretty heft backstory that he likes to hide with jokes and puns and a rampant night life, but one of his trademarks is that he collects the eyes of angels and wears them like trophies. We saw an eyeball bowtie item on a petsite and just had to have him wear one. With nothing else, of course. I’m still insanely happy with how he turned out in this piece!

[cryptics-grimoire]

Hey it’s been a hot minute, I haven’t been updating here since it doesn’t really seem like it ever gets traffic but I just love having everything in one place so  I should probably go on an upload spree. xD

OC-tober Day 4 - "I've Got You," part 2 to day 3's piece, Marchosias consoling his sad angel.

"When it gets hard to breathe, You don't know how to hide it, You lost what you believe, You don't know how to find it, Don't let go, Of everything you know."

I'm behind, but who's counting?

Day 3- "Smoke" from OC-tober with Tabbris.

She's feisty and always out for a fight, but you can't always hide from your inner demons. Was going for melancholy instead of her usual vitriol as she laments over her rotting wings.

[cryptics-grimoire]

Trying not to get discouraged before I even really begin, so I’m going to post these and keep going hopefully. Day one and two for OC-tober for me. I’m pulling prompts from different lists.

The first is “Teeth” from monstober, featuring Marchosias’ hellhound form. What better choice than big monster wolf teeth?

The second is “Collar” from whumptober, featuring Marchosias again.  Marchosias wasn’t always the prideful hellhound demon he is now. He was born in chains without so much as a name, but there was a fire in him that compelled him to fight for freedom, and he made sure to kill every last one of those that kept him on a leash. “All my wolves, begin to howl, Wake me up, the time is now, Oh, can you hear the drumming? Oh, there’s a revolution coming.”

Corruption arc of Pythius. Despite being a demon, he's always had a good heart and falls in love with the angel that rescues him as a POW. Happily Ever Afters are never the end, and when Abaddon sinks her claws into Pythius' mind and turns him against all of his loved ones, shit really hits the fan.
