Death and darkness await paranormal investigators Helena Blackwood and Tobias Lansbury-Locke in the heart of Glaster Hall... Fina l l y finished this commission for @trout-scout.bsky.social for her series Blackwood Books (archiveofourown.org/series/4514344)

A black and white drawing in ink of two people framed inside a dense amalgam of towers, turrets, walls and pillars, the chaotic exterior of a castle, stonework carved with rats, yew branches, suns, stars, and moons.
Inside the castle is a woman, frowning with furrowed brows, clutching a tape recorder and a flashlight in her gloved hands. Behind her, back to back with the woman looking over his shoulder, is a man homding a rifle. He looks significantly more worried. They stand in an elaborate sitting room with high arched ceilings and an ornately carved ceiling.
The space is large, but oppresive, the castle presses down on the two figures hunched at its centre.

The illustration from the previous image sits framed in a dark wood frame with black matting against a dark, but subtly rich purple background.

Old drawing but it's been Missing My Boys time this evening.... I miss them..... My boys....... #transformers #KOBD #transformersprime Maybe I should rewatch prime... (9T^T)9

Guess who's BACK!!!!! Everyone's favourite grumpy princess!! Ahhhhh!!!!!!!! It's too late for me to pick a thought to share so i'll just scream!!! #WIP

A partially finished sketch of the main character from my current comics project: princess Helena; she's a younger teen girl with extremely long hair in a ballgown scowling out at the viewer, clearly unimpressed. The /Rough/ outline of a small creature sits across her shoulders.

O B S E S S E D with this poodle i doodled in life drawing tonight ... Such a beautiful and elegant... P'dle

The poodle looks like a sock puppet propped up on toothpicks someone hot-glued pom-poms onto.
Thoughtless, but also somehow full of exsitential dread.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· 19d

For reference; here's the original

A child's pencil crayon drawing mounted on a plaque sitting on a bookshelf.
In essence this dragon is the same as the previous just a lot more rudimentary. They look like a long flat worm draped over the side of the rock, with spiky flames coming out of their perfectly circular mouth, they still look like their chilling out, but it's a lot less blissful.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· 19d

When I was a kid my local library held a Dragon-Themed Bookmark Drawing Contest. My slinky little sea-side darling sadly did Not win. But I still think they're precious. #dragon #fantasy #oldartredraw

A digital painting of a pinky-lavender dragon basking in the sun on a rock next to the ocean. Their long sleek body and tail curls around the rocks as they snooze, sleepy smoke billowing from their nose, their eyes gently and blissfully closed. They're having, quiet possibly, the best, warmest, most comfortable nap a dragon could have.

We all know of my many escapades with my Beloved Nasty Husband Heisenberg But did you know I've been Sexualizing That Old Man for over a decade? Here's a Very popular drawing I did of Ratchet from Transformers Prime in 2014

A digital drawing of Ratchet from Transformers prime (a large robot who turns into an ambulance) posing with his hands on his hips and a nervous but cheeky smile.
Notably he is also wearing a see-through nurse/ambulance themed lingerie set... sexy old robot man......

a drawing of the OP down on all fours with big, angry, red eyes and a small person in his sharp teeth, aggressively shaking his head back and forth in an incandescent rage.

#makeaterriblecomicday2026 okay so it's not /terrible/ per say but I did do it Very Fast* and trying to erase as little as possible just be quick and silly with it v-v)/ Anyway, Haggarty isn't very good at Pittily-Willow...

An unwound scroll reads: A tense game of Pittily-Willow

A young man (non-human, more of a muppet-y llama; long snout, very fuzzy) looks nervously between the pile of game pieces in front of him and the pile in front of his opponent.
(I explain the game in the thread below! for now just imagine it's like a reverse Jenga but with twigs and extra rules)
He's in a tough spot, with a lot of pebbles and only a few sticks while his friend has a small mound of sticks and maybe three or four pebbles .. He's got to make some risky moves if he wants to win.

Reaching down he picks up his longest stick and carefully inserts it into the large pile at the center of the table. Then, delicately as possible, he tries to hang a pebble from his newly inserted stick.

The whole pile crashes down onto the table dramatically, twigs bouncing down to the ground and pebbles scattering.
The crash is met by cheers and applause from the two players friends, while the looser covers his face with his hands and throws back his head in an extended groan.

I drew something for myself everyone look!! It was a very quick doodling but it Felt Nice to do T^T)9 #residentevilvillage #karlheisenberg

A scene of OP's resident evil OC Lazarus (a sickly pale older gentlman, with yellowed half-moon glasses and a gaunt face, his slicked back hair has a streak of white going behind his ears on either side and he is wearing a blue pinstripe vest and slacks) sitting on a stool in front of a drafting table, his face pinched in clear frustration at whatever he is working on.
Behind him, standing in front of a dead body with an open abdomen, is Karl Heisenberg. With his back to Lazarus he's gesturing wildly and several small speech bubbles suggest he's also chattering excessively. Clearly unaware his partner, Lazarus, is not listening even a little bit.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Apr 25

Guess who found a Vest!!!!! It's a little darker than the light off-white cream that Viktor's Acatually is but this is like.... The Arcane equivalent of disney-bounding. It'll do. It's also just a Cute Vest so...

A mirror selfie of the poster, a young white man with a short beard and shoulder length hair, in a brown stripped dress shirt and light tan-ish butto up sweater vest that together makes an outift that Kinda looks like Viktor from Arcane if you squint a little and know what you're looking at.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Apr 19

Finally got a frame for the @shuploc.bsky.social jayce piece my sister got me for christmas!!! Look at him!!! With the little pressed flowers!!!!! 😭😭😭 My dearest my darling...... (Also ft. @arcanefineartzine.bsky.social as a psuedo coffee-table/side-table book)

A framed portrait of Jayce Talis sitting on a small side table next to a couch.
The frame is smooth plain gold with a off white matte inside, a oval in the middle shows jayce's protrait and it is surrounded by pale yellow and blue dried and pressed flowers.
(In front of the frame, laying down on the table, is a copy of Menagerie: an arcane fine art zine)

A photo of a small gibbon monkey sitting on a branch with its limbs all tucked in. It rests its chin on its hands with a deeply sad expression.
The word "Forlorn" is stamped in big white letters over the image, telling you just how bad this monley's day is going.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Mar 3

A mirror selfie of Bartholomew (me, th OP) a taller white man with shoulder length brown hair that has a blonde streak on the side and a short beard. I'm wearing high-wasted black faux leather pants, a cropped leather vest, red lensed glasses on my head and a colourful floral silk scarf tied around my neck.

A second mirror selfie of Bartholomew (me, the OP) in the same leather outfit but in a slightly different pose.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Feb 9

I always put too much effort into these.... But in my defense it's fun. #hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicsday2026 #hourlies

In the form of a strip comic with 5 panels;

12:00Am - Sitting on the couch in my Pajamas, illuminated by the light of my TV, eating late night alfredo and reviewing childhood photos

1:00Am - My laptop lights up the side of my bed as I bury myself in the side of my Djungleskog (large stuffed bear from Ikea). I've taken yo snuggling him for insulation and companionship :') (his name is Henrik)

9:00-10:00Am - My alarm wakes me up Far sooner than I would have liked, but I only snoozed it twice!

11:00Am - I've successfully dragged myself to the kitchen to make breakfast! (Nuts, cheese, a grilled cheese sandwich, cucumber, and some shredded chicken) Which i lounge and eat at my desk.

A six panel strip continuing from the last;

1:00-2:00Pm -Running some errands! Off to the "bank"*, post office (they couldn't see that I'd prepaid for the package at first.. AH), and Staples (I grabbed what I went there for and proceeded to spend a long time looking through notebooks even though i absolutely do NOT a new one right now.)

* An ATM in the parking lot of a nearby pizza place.

Then I'm Waiting for Public Transit.

Until

3:00Pm - When I get home, park myself at my desk and work through the first "page" of my hourlies for the rest of the afternoon!

6:00Pm - I take a nice break to make dinner and catch up on dishes... (Depression is a bitch....)

The final continuation of the series, 5 panels;

8:00Pm - FURIOUSLY trying to finish my last 2 hourlies "pages" as I pick away at dinner and night sets in.

12:00Am - Finally finished I drag myself away from my desk and flop down in bed ontop of Henrik, once again burying myself in his side. Shooting out a big thumbs up from where i'm tucked in, happy that i was able to participate and Finish an hourlies dat for the first time in years (and also got everything else on my list done!!)

Back hurt so bad during life drawing tonight i had to invoke the image of the Back Pain King to get through it (Like for real i kept locking up so hard i couldn't move or breath for a hot second... Tomorrow's gunna be ~fun at work~)

A small pencil sketch portrait of Viktor (season 1 act 2/3) scowling next to him is the caption
"My back hurts so much
Draw Viktor about it.
(He knows my pain)"

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Jan 11

Samples of my work;

Donna Beneviento from resident evil village sits on her knees with a cup of tea in hand, beside her are two cats; one snuggled against her leg, the other with his paw in her lap, looking up at her expectantly.

A linework portrait drawing of viktor as the mage; he is looking, sad and exhausted, out into the distance, mouth pulled into a slight frown. Half of his face is obscured by his hood and his hair which cascade's down into abstract swirls across the bottom of the portrait. The inside of his hood is pirch black.

A black and white drawing done in ink on paper of lady dimitrescu from resident evil twirling a young woman in an elegant romantic dance. They are both wearing 1950's inspired evening gowns, framed by three large windows, draped in thick heavy curtains set between pillars and filigreed molding centered around a large House Dimitrescu crest.
The scene is cut and framed as such to make it look like they are standing on a little stage.

A traditional illustration of Karl Heisenberg sitting in one of the lab rooms you walk through in re8.
He is sitting in a chair examining the Cadou engine from one of his Soldats that he holds in his palm. The soldat is sedated and strapped down behind him. The skin of its chest peeled away to reveal its inner workings, a complicated mash of machines and organic material, some parts of which are plugged into the ceiling.
Bloodied tools, cables, spare parts, and buckets of viscera are scattered haphazardly around the space including at Heisenberg's feet and hovering around his head with the help of his magnetic abilities.

(notably there is a tin mug of coffee tucked under Karl's chair and his signature trench coat is draped over one of the tables Definitely carelessly tossed right into a puddle of blood.

Commission for @crowtrobotx of Heis and his daughter Lottie to honour the end of her Heisen-dad fic Chrysalis! A joy and an honour yo have been chosen for such meaningful project T^T)9 #residentevil #karlheisenberg #residentevilvillage

A black and white linework drawing of karl heisenberg grinning and holding his daughter Lottie (an OC from the fanfic Chrysalis) in the crook of his arm with his hammer resting on his opposite shoulder. The little girl is excitedly brandishing a much smaller rubber mallet.
They are framed inside a horseshoe with a plaque reading 'House Heisenberg' on the bottom. Surrounding the horseshoe is an image of the feild outside the front of the factory, with piles of junk spread along the path to the factories entrance.
The whole scene is framed in by chains connected in the corners by various bits of nonsense-machinery (cogs and pistons and axels and glass domes containing butterflies, in refrence to the fics title and cover art) and Lotties pet rat in one corner who looks back happily on the portrait.

The same imagr of Karl and Lottie from before, but placed in a large golden frame, posed ontop of a trenchcoat that looks a lot like heisenbergs.

Artist-Choice Karl Heisenberg Commission for Spriggan675 on Tumblr! Love to draw that old man committing scientific atrocities in his workshop <33333 #re8 #residentevil #residentevilvillage #karlheisenberg

The same illustration of Karl in his lab working on a Soldat but this time it is in a worn and scuffed up wooden frame with an aged, worn, yellowing mat; displayed on top of a green trench coat identical to Karl's own.

#Artvsartist2025

A square grid of 9 boxes, the eight around the outside show crops of drawings of mine throughout the year, including some of my characters from Dragon's Daughter (my original comic), Arcane fanart, and drawings of Karl and Lazarus.
In the last box in the center is a selfie of me, the artist grinning menacingly over the rim of some small round sunglasses.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Dec 27

Wow! what a Year! (Derogatory) #Artsummary2025

A four by three grid of twelve boxes, labelled Jan-Dec. Each box contains a small cropped version of a drawing I did this year from the month the box is labelled as.
Along the top it's titled "Year in Review -2025" and my signature takes up the bottom right corner.

The way these shirts wrapped around eachother in the dryer like.... C'mon.

Two dress shirts - one a dark emerald green, the other brown with thin white stripes laid out on a table after being pulled directly from a dryer. They are tangled and wrapped around eachother like some kind of shirt-y embrace......
And this, too, is Jayvik.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Dec 10

Look......... Yes. I bought this shirt for exactly the reason you're thinking i did.

A mirror selfie of Bartholomew (op) pouting at the camera with a hand on his hip. He's wearing a wine red dress shirt under a black vest and long black jacket with matching black pants.

A second mirror selfie in the same outfit, but this time the hand not holding the phone is in his pocket and he's crossed his legs, sticking out his hip.

A third mirror selfie, where bartholomew is bent forward dramatically one arm behind him sweeping the end of his long jacket up over his back.

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Dec 9

I did also make Heimydingy

A flat wooden christmas tree ornament that's clearly supposed to be in the shape of a gnome holding two presents but the hat and beard are painted orange and a moustache made out of the brim of the hat make it look like Heimerdinger instead.
Importantly, his eyes are two tiny blue dots just above his moustache

Bartholomew@bartholomewillu· Dec 9

Oh! Ah! I forgot to post these! Made ornaments with my friends yesterday and executed an Excersize in Subtlety...
