Autumn, Moss, Mushrooms! I give you my sock puppet version of Scragglebird cause I still think it's cute.

Visiting Kraków for the week and experiencing so many new things. Like catching pigeons in town square and learning to fire a bow and arrow.

A volley of 6 arrows shot by me. 3 are within the red Bullseye, 3 are within the green ring.

Ah yes... squapes

A screenshot from FFXIV of low poly grapes. You can just barely see my Warrior of Light behind the leaves.

So Flock Around is an adorable, silly game about taking photos of birds. My partner and I bird watch on our morning walks and this game feels just like that. I highly recommend it, it's great!

Struggling creatively... But I at least managed a doodle of my Vintage Story character.

A small kobold wearing a straw hat, scarf and cloak. They look scared while holding a torch. 'The horrors persist but so doI'

Though I lack examples I could definitely push for crunchier line work! I do backgrounds! vgen.co/scragglebird

This one?

I personally prefer Arches watercolor paper. And I usually buy watercolor blocks which are pads of thick watercolor paper that have been adheared on the edges so the paper doesn't warp if you soak it with water. Always start light to dark for tones and colors.

A picture of the watercolor supplies I just purchased.

Sometimes it's fun to do a little gift art. This is for the character of the month on Ranebopets! This month's featured character is a orange icecream inspired draphibi named Sherbet. I included Pip my draphibi hatchling just for fun #art #ranebopets #draphibi

An illustration of two Draphibi, the character of the month is the large yellow draphibi named Sherbet. The small green and red Draphibi is named Pip and is a hatchling. Both Draphibi stand in a forest clearing lit by sun rays.

I had started painting this Eastern Bluebird when I got sick last month and decided to finish it today! Experimented with some pastel-like brushes including a rake brush to get that feather texture #bird #art #painting

The new grass starter for #Pokemon Wind/Waves is adorable!

Browt, the grass starter pokemon from Pokemon Wind and Pokemon Waves. They are curled up with their beak tucked behind their wing. They seem to be sleeping with one eye open!

#WIP Wednesday! I'm making a new reference for Scragglebird! #art #sketch #furry

A WIP of a reference sheet for Scragglebird, a quadrupedal bird-like creature with pterosaur wings and a prehensile tail. Included on the sheet are two expressions, angry and happy. There is also a sketch of a freshly hatched Scraggle on the right side of the page.

‪I'm Scragglebird, a scraggly mess of an art monster who loves character and creature design, fantasy and TTRPGs! I'm a background, prop, and character artist! ✉️ scragglebirdart@gmail.com Vgen: vgen.co/scragglebird #art #Vgen #portfolio #furry

Ember the eastern red backed salamander stoops to pac up their backpack, using thier crooked branch staff to support their upper body weight. They are lit from below by a round jar of glowing firefly juice from their pack. Nearby a grumpy looking oak toad complains about Ember's paltry offering. His arms are crossed as he sits back on his haunches. His prized american giant millipede uses his back to prop it's front up as perch to peer down at Ember. The millipede curls down from the toad across the image to the left and then curls back to the right further in the distance. The forest clearing is lit by bright moonlight with god rays and some dust visible in the air.

A reference sheet for the Eastern Red Backed Salamander named Ember. They are labelled as a bug tamer and scout. There are various images depicting their preferred way of walking, their equipment and the fireflies they used to tame. Next to an image of Ember standing on her back legs while holding her staff it says "stands to manipulate objects, talk or for more dexterous tasks" Next to an image of Ember on all fours with her staff fastened to her backpack it say "usually walks, runs and travels on all fours." Next to the images of a hand and foot it says "two middle fingers longer than pinky and index" and "four toes". On the right hand side of the image are various pictures of fireflies including the details of the foot, their scale in relation to Ember and the colour palette. "Typically Tames: Common Eastern Firefly, Photinus pyralis"

An old willow tree, strung with trinkets, emits a pink glow in a nighttime swamp. Will-o-wisps float around the marshlands drawing the eye to various spots. There are mysterious hoof prints leading into a glowing den that at the base of the great willow tree. In the foreground sits a small salamander on an old fallen log adorned with mushrooms.

An illustration of Scragglebird, a creature that is a combination of vulture, pterosaur and few other things, perches on a tree growing sideways from an old cliff. They stretch their pterosaur-like wing in the autumn sunset. The cliff face is covered with moss, mushrooms and ferns.

Artists! Quote with your most detailed art! --- I remember the scale mail, chain mail and Yuan-ti scales taking a while. I had to do a lot of research for the chain mail. This commission took me a year to complete! #DnD #DungeonsandDragons #TTRPG

A DnD party of five rests in a clearing. A Yuan-Ti artificer fixes one of his gadgets. A tiefling ranger gets ready to skin and prepare a rabbit for dinner. A plasmoid monk admires a leaf. A human fighter mends some cloth and a Kenku bard sorcerer lights the fire. Late again light filters down through the autumn trees and a faint glow emanates from the camp fire.

As a final farewell to the Oakhaven ARPG here is all the #art work I created for the game.

Oakhaven, the large magical floating tree that the art roleplaying group had been named after. Baba the witch badger stands near the path leading to the door.

Longtail Island, an island to the North known for its rocky beaches, and pine forests. A path winds into the deep pines from the beach.

Gapwater, an island of rolling hills and fields cut through the middle by a large river.

Blueworth cliffs are named after its blue soil. This island is rocky and mountainous!

Scragglebird [Comms: OPEN]@scragglebird· Feb 20

Oh! This is Scragglebird, a combo of vulture and pterosaur with a prehensile tail! A fun fact is their ears are actually quite soft feeling, feeling much like the plant called Lamb's Ear.

Scragglebird [Comms: OPEN]@scragglebird· Feb 19

I'll toss my hat in the ring! My portfolio is here: vgen.co/scragglebird

A reference sheet commission for the lovely @shhasum.bsky.social I've been wanting to draw more #dinosaurs and this was a great excuse to try my hand at a #Spinosaurus!

A reference sheet of a very colourful spinosaurus named Sergio. The sheet contains a full side view of the rainbow spinosaurus, a front head or maw shot and a colour palette.

Scragglebird [Comms: OPEN]@scragglebird· Feb 5

Ohhhh I'd be super interested! Let me know if you need a clearer front/side/back view. Scraggle is usually quadrupedal and only stands up on twos to manipulate objects or reach for things!

Boy is it ever difficult
