March MOTM: sabertoothed horror - painting process video // nsfw

here's the process video for march's MOTM painting--download the attached .mov file below! 

this all began with the idea that to properly show off the monster's saberteeth i wanted to portray him in profile, mouth partly open, with ...

SKETCHBOOK: slam down // nsfw

i often just like... add little notes to my sketches, to remind future me of the mood or moment or action i want to portray. things like "balls deep" or "rub" or "nudge" or "slam down" and other such elegant, philosophical things.

March MOTM: sabertoothed horror - concept sketch + design commentary // nsfw

thanks again to lostmisfits for suggesting a monster with saberteeth! <3 

'sabertoothed horror' really was one of those monster of the month design prompts that was just the right amount of vague. it left me with a lot of artistic freedom while also specifying some important characteristics that gave me a sense of ...

HOW TO MONSTER: poll for MAY (HTM10)

what should my next HOW TO MONSTER tutorial be about? you can vote for up to 3 options!

after doing a few tutorials about various anatomical areas (mouths, noses/muzzles, horns/antlers) i thought it would be fun to change gears a bit and make a guide to a specific 'group' of monsters. HTM10 will be focused on concepting an...

PROCESS VIDEOS(!): load + gently + nectar // nsfw

this process post is a bit different than normal. i was looking at the video replays for my latest three pieces, trying to choose which one to show you. but it proved difficult to decide, so rather than writing a lot about just one of them, i decided to show you all three videos and just make some brief comments about what i th...

March MOTM: sabertoothed horror (“sketch”) // nsfw

it’s not always the case that my monster of the month paintings + sketches feel like they depict moments from the same scenario or scene, but in this case it really looks like the painting was part 1 and this sketch is part 2...!

// ar...

March MOTM: sabertoothed horror (painting) // nsfw

alternative title: so many fangs. HAH.

based on a motm suggestion made by lostmisfits, who wanted to see a monster with saberteeth! i had lots of fun working on the different details, the ‘organic’ framing, and a colour scheme that’s partly outside my comfort zone—i don’t use bright yellowy greens a lot! of cours...

SKETCHBOOK: ready? // nsfw

are you ever truly ready for a monster tongue? what an existential question. real deep.

i'm having fun doodling pose and composition ideas for my weekly arts! not that filling a few canvases with nsfw sketches is new, per se. but drawing a piece of art every week has me extra keen on experimenting with interestin...

EARLY ACCESS: nectar (week 11) // nsfw

juicy and sweet.

diego hilleary wanted to see more dragons + humans! i am admittedly cheating a bit, because soha isn’t exactly human, but i hope the differences in design and size still scratch the right itch ;)

POLL: emergency reward idea - icons/character portraits?

short version: i’m healthy, but the effects of the coronavirus on the world is reaching me, as so many other people. to ensure some level of financial security for myself i am thinking about creating a new patreon reward tier for doing some icons, aka basically character portraits that would be suitable for us...

SKETCHBOOK: the dragon knight // sfw

my lad, my bae, my boi, my wholesome hero--iskandar. he's got nothing to do with D&D but he fits right into a lawful good paladin archetype, although he moves into neutral good territory halfway through his tale. long story short he's a rhaajim, aka a shapeshifting dragon person--long story long, well... that'll ha...

EARLY ACCESS: load (week 10) // nsfw

filling them up.

as requested by both lostmisfits and xan farley, here’s more march & charlie! it ended up being a sequel to ‘lick,’ although i suspect it’s far from over already, and ngl i already hav...

EARLY ACCESS: have a drink (week 9) // nsfw

it ain’t gonna suck itself, pet.

coldau requested more nehaneru, and i was all too happy to oblige. well, they actually said nehaneru *and* his partner, wansa—but i ended up doing a nehaneru solo thing first because i couldn’t resist illustrating the mental image of him just being an asshole, sitting there expecting ...

February MOTM: hunter & the beast - painting process video // nsfw

here's the process video for february's motm painting; download the .mov file attached below!

the whole idea of this motm prompt was that the human should be dominating the monster, so my first order of business was deciding how to portray that. si...

February MOTM: hunter & the beast - concept sketch + design commentary // sfw

this motm design was based on a scenario suggested by xan farley, who gave "a human ‘hunting’ their big monster sub" as an example of a human dom/monster sub relationship.

me and kubi have some couples where the more monstrous partner plays the submissive role in the power dynamic (foremost among them, logan a...

February MOTM: hunter & the beast (sketch) // nsfw

stopping for a mid-hunt snack break.

February MOTM: hunter & the beast (painting) // nsfw

"caught you again, hm? what a coincidence."

thank you to xan farley for suggesting this motm theme <3 i looove play hunting but i’ve often stuck to the classic ‘monster play hunting human bae’ trope, and as much as i adore that dynamic it was really great to do a role reversal. she is a hunter by...

OC Spotlight: Saranya // very mildly nsfw

this is the first oc spotlight that takes place in a different setting from the 'gods among us' universe or the desert empire, although it exists in the same world as the latter. it's an underground city in the heart of a huge system of caves, full of lush jungle, fluorescent mushrooms, carved temples, crystals that harbour a strange power, an u...

PROCESS VIDEO: climax // nsfw

here's the process video of my recent drawing of julian and andreas--download the .mov file below! 

as already mentioned, i've long wanted to follow my 'impatience' piece up with a part 2. i even made a rough sketch of what i wanted it to loo...
