Thirteen years[midsize]

I started this painting in april of 2012, yes, 2012. and then in the infamous hard drive failure of 2012 and my subsequent devastation at losing many Emain files, I stopped painting so the colored sketch of her rotted. But in happenstance while looking for images of space/ocean the other day I found her, sitting right there in her unfinished glory and I saidit's time[2nd image is the 2012 sketch where it was before I started work on it today][3rd image is my original 2011 painting of her where you can see her original elements mentioned bel...

Over a decade

An extremely common theme in my art is bittersweet comfort paintings featuring water/space combinations. I sadly lost many many files in my HD failure of 2012, so the earliest versions and one in particular of the arkalian 'adiago' from 2008 are all gone, but these are the ones I could actually locate on my various HDs. I can't explain it to anyone who doesn't understand, but from birth I was raised on the water and from birth I was raised on 'the stars' in the form of scifi tv and media. No matter how sad or damaged I a...

All results will be painted.Link to the form is mandatory and here: https://forms.gle/evrVCJZXpt7ypPaR6I have uploaded some samples on this post and will make this post public for all of the tons of you guys who are in my free category. ♥ ty very much for lookingnote: images uploaded as samples are merely in my painting style, the specific types of art I am open for are on the form. No large scenes will be taken at this time.

Stinky bird

my Raven-alien sona giving the stink eye. When the strange bird gets too stressed or irritated, plants start growing from its body and from whatever surface it's standing on.The alien being pretending to be a bird is a sentient plant-alien.

Borb

I've wanted a weird otherworldly borb character for a while, and this is a wip of its design. it's kinda a 'not quite right' raven with big round creepy white eyes that reflect light.it has wings too they're tucked away in this doodle with a belt that holds them in place.and apparently my birb person never wears pants. so there's that. every view I drew it in has no pants so pantless bird-thing it is!

a bug in space

I did it for the views. have never played hollow knight, never will but journey is one of my favorite games ever made. my eyes saw critter with black soulless eyes in red coat: its journey so I journeyfied it. SHHKK KK BOOM.

new art up for cheapy price

pchoooo

Compulsion

She was smart, cunning, devious. The iridescent black dragon bellowed thick, black smoke and cinder through the primitive stone doorways, then snaked her long, low-slung body atop the home and waited. It didn't take long, mere minutes passed and more and more of the primitive Riftavians poured from the building, some nude, some clothed, all screeching in terror.The massive dragon descended, snaking down the building and stomping upon the first Rift in her way.A low, rumbly voice echoed from her hissing throat, 'Rhehehehe, where are you ...

The doctor

technically he's a veterinarian. Xeno-veterinarian since moving to Io though he prefers Qothos.some trivia/tie ins:erebos [the man] is ezrael's vet for lileos, her qothari war hound. he's a vet vet, get it? veteran veterinarian. like 99% of veil, he served in the great war.lileos liked erebos before ezrael hit on him, subsequently she hit on him because her dog liked him.all veil have a sort of 'complex' about Ezrael, which means the various govts of the drake worlds and moons all have lopsided polls when it comes to matters...

been a minute since I was able to sit down and work on art, I've been busy as hell irlstreaming some veil x abyss smut on the form of erebos and ezraelcome hang out in stream, chat, whatever you want.https://picarto.tv/Spacedrakes

Recent art-book page sketches/work

while riftavians are extinct, I felt it was necessary to include them in the art book.There will also be a page or two for the Veil of course. other pages pending: abyss drake reproduction pagepan vok'lus aka hellcat creature page. upcoming pages: some water rats, more sealife, possibly foods. I reaaaally want to include foods.

Process

vastly sped up, original recording was 7 hours via obs

near miss

I wanted to do something a bit more action oriented, so I did this closeup shot of ez about to kick some ass. also recorded ir in high def with obs but it was multiple sessions so I gotta stitch the vids together before I post them

D is for Ezrael's Diseased mind

vent art

process sharing

you can see most of the scene post me importing and flattening my 3d objects. out of the scene, I sculpted 3 of the objects myself, the rest are csp assets and glp assets from other 3d free-use websites.detailing like the panel above the bed and the wall on the left are by mealso the posters are my own concept art as well. there are several brands I've been working on in secret within my universe so I can better cement the 'real' feeling.I drew over all 3d assets and re-shaded them myself as I wanted everything to match up in my sty...

Rage

Orbiting a neutron star, Ezrael flew into a rage. She slammed her fists against the wall above the bunk, crumpling the composite metal with little effort, her tail thrashing then slamming down on the table behind her, sending the weapons on it careening onto the floor.Why? Why was she like this? Were they right? Was she a failed prototype after all? She was filled with such incalculable rage that she began hitting and clawing at the walls, trashing the room and tearing the posters down.Tears boiled in her eyes and the massive drake's body s...

Days, weeks, months..

The nebula the Behemoth was gliding through cast a marvelous array of greens and blues inside the small vessel, casting dark, rich shadows that seemed as if they'd swallow you if you became to near.Ezrael sat on the edge of the bunk in the crew quarters she'd taken for her own. The captains chambers were too large, too lavish, too opulent for her. She was a wild animal, lost body and mind after twenty cycles of hell, and like an animal, she preferred to hide away in small spaces that were easily defended. Strewn across the room were pie...

Reaching out

The cold grey drake stared past the glass and shielding that protected her from the vacuum, her hand reaching out and touching the bubble that ran along both sides of the glass. It lightly buzzed and hummed where her fingers and palm made contact, briefly rippling outward as a reminder that it was there.A vast emptiness settled on her like a burden and she let out a soft sigh.

Happyman Vesk

Ezrael torturing Sirius with her favorite fish which he happens to find terrifying x'Dit's an extremely rare moment of ezrael showing joy--mostly at sirius's discomfort LOL.I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE FIND IT OFFPUTTING. Sacabambaspis is one of the funniest looking little guys to ever have lived
