-Too Simple (III)- This painting killed me. I am a ghost now. #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Digital painting of Jakub and Marcin in muted colors against a black background. They are lit by a warm orange glow, as though by firelight. Marcin is slouched in a chair, żupan partially open, with Jakub standing behind him; one of Jakub's gloved hands is splayed on Marcin's chest, the other resting atop Marcin's head. Marcin reaches a hand up to hold Jakub's arm. His expression is despairing, while Jakub looks possessive and somewhat ominous. (1670)

If you see this, post your marine-themed art! 🦑 Shocked I have something for this one, tbh. #24crowsart

Digital painting of Jakub Adamczewski as a vampire squid. He is face-on to the viewer, centered, vaguely sinister. His fingers are pressed together in an inverted tent below his sternum, his hands black with ink in a mimicry of gloves. He is unclothed except for a red Cardinal's biretta (because the biretta reminds the artist of cephalopod heads a little bit). At the hips, his body spreads out into a fan of purple vampire squid tentacles, curving up behind his back to frame him. The spines at the ends of the tentacles give off a blue, bioluminescent light. A golden sensory filament swirls up behind him, tipped with a tiny little gold cross. (1670)

omg a #wipwednesday when I actually have a #WIP going. #24crowsart

Photo of a large tablet screen displaying a Clip Studio Paint interface. The WIP itself is a greyscale painting of Marcin slouched in a chair, żupan partially open, Jakub's gloved hand splayed on his chest from above and behind. Faces and heads are not visible in the crop. Moderately high detailing throughout most of the WIP at this stage, but sections are missing. (1670)

The same WIP at a much earlier stage, showing Jakub's and Marcin's fully detailed arms and hands, a partially detailed but largely incomplete torso with messy brush strokes around the edges, and absolutely no hint of the rest of the jacket. The outline is hidden, which makes the WIP look fragmentary and in a somewhat nonsensical stage of completion, which the artist finds amusing. (1670)

Close-ups for the details.

Close-up crop of the two men's faces from the previous post, showing the details of both of their faces as well as the second priest's hand as he holds Jakub's jaw.

Close-up crop from the previous post of the sheet draped over Jakub's legs in a cascade of folds.

Eyyyy more niche fandom stuff from me. S3 came out last week and I am back on my bullshit. -Too Simple (II)- #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Digital painting of Jakub propped up in bed, a sheet draped over his hips and legs. He is wearing only his black gloves. Another priest, fully clothed, tilts Jakub's chin upward with one hand, the pad of his thumb on Jakub's lips, contemplating his face. The room is silent, bathed in moonlight. (1670)

-Pent- #art | #originalart | #24crowsart

Digital painting of two nuns sitting knee to knee, eyes veiled. Their hands are close together, nearly touching, praying on the same rosary.

24Crows@kai-the-spiral· Jun 30

Let's get another one in here that I didn't post before. MerMay 2026 - what if Jakub was a vampire squid? Y'know. The important questions. #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Close-up of Jakub's face from the previous image. His eyes are a watery blue, and red-rimmed.

24Crows@kai-the-spiral· Jun 29

Damn. Long time no see, this account. Little untitled Pride painting to help drag me out of art block (again). I liked this idea a lot and might try something similar again if I nail down a stained glass approach that I like. #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Digital painting of Jakub Adamczewski from the chest up, chin tilted slightly upwards, face-on to the viewer and slightly off center. The light from a stained glass rose window in the colors of the gay (mlm) flag is thrown on the wall behind him over his right shoulder and illuminates the right side of his face. The light is luminescent on his skin. (1670)

The violent jump from 2019 to 2026

Portrait of my webcomic OC Seefa, done in a digital watercolor comic style. A young woman holds a thick hardcover book close to her chest, a small smile on her face with one eyebrow slightly raised. She wears a bulky coat and scarf with visible fur accents, along with a hat pulled down over her ears; she is dressed for cold. She has a long black braid and brown eyes, but is otherwise rendered in desaturated blue and purple tones. Behind her are the colors of the sunset lesbian flag. Character portrait done for Pride 2019.

It's #TDOV? Damn. I'm a nb masc-leaning sort of person, and here are a few pieces I did about my top surgery experience last year. (And one piece of my nonbinary Rook's scars because why not.) cw: first image shows a newer incision, not yet healed. #transdayofvisibility | #24crowsart

Digital watercolor in yellow and peach tones. Nonbinary person from sternum to eyeline, the top of the face lost in abstract color smears. There is a long top surgery scar sketched in along the bottom of their chest. Over the right side of the chest and the front of the armpit is a loose honeycomb pattern. Crawling along the bottom edge of the honeycomb is a large bee, more solid and dark than anything else in the composition.

A nonbinary person stuck half in, half out of a t-shirt, struggling to get it over their head. They have a long top surgery scar across their pec line, visible under the lifted edge of the shirt. A word balloon simply says, "...Fuck."

Loose digital watercolor of Emmrich Volkarin's hands, adorned with all of his gold jewelry, roaming Rook's unclothed torso. Rook's top surgery scars are stylized in gold paint, and their chest tattoo is loosely sketched in with pencil. (Dragon Age: The Veilguard)

-Indulgence- Listen. I'm still a bit weird about putting my niche fandom smut art on this platform, but I worked really hard on this and went out of my way to try new things, so here we are. :P #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Digital painting of Marcin going down on Jakub in a darkened corner of church. Jakub is slumped in a very high-backed black gothic chair, one arm draped lazily over the side, face serene and downturned, cassock rucked up over his waist. Marcin kneels in front of the chair, face buried between Jakub's thighs, Jakub's other gloved hand gripping the crown of Marcin's head. Jakub's legs, encased in their black leather boots, are crossed on Marcin's upper back in a position reminiscent of a somewhat incorrectly executed triangle choke. The room is deeply shadowed, but light from one of the ornamental church windows is thrown against the back wall, partially highlighting the two men. Marcin's blue coat is a stark contrast to the otherwise largely monochrome scene. (1670)

Close-up detail of Marcin servicing Jakub, held in place by Jakub's hand and crossed legs. (1670)

Digital artists, share your first digital art and year vs. now! 2007 vs 2026

Digital painting of Jakub partially reclined against a stack of scrolls, books, and boxes, his black cloak draped over the pile. He is wearing only a drape of white cloth across his lap, his black leather boots, and his black leather gloves with a gold ring on one finger. In one hand he loosely holds a narrow staff with a cross at the finial. He looks bored and irritated. A thin gold halo frames his head and shoulders. (1670)

K̵u̵p̵a̵l̵a̵ He's sulking because nobody wants to celebrate St. John's birthday like they do in the cool Catholic west. A study and a riff on this Caravaggio painting of John the Baptist. #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Closeup detail of the previous image, showing Jakub from the waist up. (1670)

Caravaggio's "John the Baptist (John in the Wilderness)." Saint John, quite young, is partially reclined against a deep red cloak, which is itself draped over a large tree branch against a very dark background. He is mostly unclothed, and holds a long, narrow staff loosely in one hand. A sheep grazes slightly behind him on the left side of the painting.

Drop something red ❤️

Digital painting of a young cardinal with large over-ear headphones, looking down at his phone. Both phone and headphones are red. He is all hard angles and straight lines. His face is stoic, emotionless, but there are splashed yellow/gold highlights around his head, representing the energy of the music that's playing.

Day 2 of table assisting at ECCC and I'm so psyched to have finally gotten a copy of Hello Sunshine by @keezyyoung.bsky.social 🙌

Still no idea why I was terminated, but I genuinely hope it's because an automod catastrophically misunderstood the papal triregnum in my last piece.

Screencap of the tumblr notification reading: "Your account has been terminated. To find out why, please contact support." This time, underneath, there is a cropped section of digital painting showing only the papal triregnum head piece from my recent artwork entitled "See?"

Thanks for the artshare! (And thanks @nistolisk.bsky.social for tagging me in.) I don't do a lot of purple work, but let's see what I've got in the vault. 💜

Loose, blocky portrait of a female V from Cyberpunk 2077, closeup, neck to hairline. She has white skin and dark red hair. She is face-on to the camera and off to the side, so that we see about 3/4 of her face. She has visible cyberware on her cheekbone, her neck, the side of her chin, and the bridge of her nose. Her sclera are black, with pupils and irises like white reticles. Purple shadows and gold highlights with some color accents veering into magenta. Digitally painted primarily with a hard-edged brush.

Crowley and Aziraphale standing cheek to cheek, each one loosening the other's tie with one hand. Behind their heads are devil's trumpet and angel's trumpet flowers. Loose digital painting in purple and blue tones. (Good Omens)

-See?- Pope Innocent of All Charges, How Dare You (I committed to this bit way too hard and I'm not sorry.) #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Close-up detail of Jakub's robes. The embroidered panels, though very loosely defined, show the various peasant deaths depicted on the wist tiles in season 2, episode 3. (1670)

Close-up detail of Jakub's face, eyebrow slightly raised. (1670)

Time for a new pin? Time for a new pin. What's up, friendos! I'm Kai, and sometimes I draw stuff. #24crowsart

Digital painting of the angel Crowley seated, draped in white fabric, eyes glowing gold as a shadowy, faceless figure behind him places their fingers at his temples and begins to lift his halo out from inside of his head. (Good Omens)

Digital painting done in blue tones. A young man looks over his shoulder, eyes towards the viewer but somewhat unfocused. He wears narrow glasses pushed down on the bridge of his nose, leaving his eyes clearly visible. He is shirtless, and we can see three metal sockets embedded in his spine. Thick cables are plugged into the top socket on his back, the back of his head, and a third appears to plug into an unseen socket in his chest. In the background we see shadows of more cables and a ring reminiscent of a halo.

Loose digital portrait painting of Jakub Adamczewski, face-on to the camera, his black-gloved hand placing a gold coin against his tongue like a communion wafer while making somewhat upsetting direct eye-contact. (1670)

A digital painting of Ed from OFMD in the Depression Robe, lying on a multicolored pile of pillows in his cabin. He covers his mouth and heart with his hands, a look of despair in his eyes as light streams down on him from the nearby window. (Our Flag Means Death)

-Hammers Out- ...and a couple of axes. Just a freaky little guy with his hammer collection and weapons-grade leather gloves. #1670netflix | #1670fanart | #24crowsart

Close-up detail crop of previous image, showing Jakub from the chest up. (1670)

-Kit- Not the best in my collection, but here's a piece from a couple years back when I was experimenting with digital oil brushes. #MassEffect | #MassEffectFanart | #24crowsart

Digital oil painting of Commander Shepard seated at a metal table or desk, concentrating intensely on assembling a model of the Normandy. She is wearing her N7 hoodie and dog tags, black hair cropped very close to her skull. She is lit with a warm orange light from off to the right, deeper shadows on the left, reminiscent of candlelight. (Mass Effect)

If you hate Generative AI, the best way to fight back is to support real artists. ✌️

Digital painting of a person, mid-thigh to head, lying on the floor, inverted on the canvas. They are wearing a white tank top, black jeans, and black-and-red over-ear headphones. One hand is up behind their head, the other on their stomach holding the headphone wire.

Digital portrait of a female Commander Shepard, from the shoulders up. She is square to the viewer, at a slight downward angle. She is wearing a bulky, heavy set of armor and a blue Kuwashii visor over her right eye. The colors are predominantly cool and blue, with the exception of a bit of magenta bounce light on the right side of her face. (Mass Effect)

It isn't much, but I wanted to draw something for him. Welcome home, kiddo. Please check out comics4liam.com along with the other links in the original thread. #Comics4Liam

Loose digital portrait of Liam Ramos grinning in his blue bunny hat, face tilted upward.

Artists, show me how you draw backs! ❤️ (I honestly thought I'd have more of these, considering how much I love backs. New goal for 2026 I guess??) #24crowsart

Digital painting of a figure with their back to the viewer, head shaved, hands and arms raised in a pose of supplication. Five simplistically rendered swords hover in the air in front of them, pale green outlines. Three more outlined swords are arranged in a radial pattern within a circle overlaying the figure, points meeting in the space between their shoulder blades.

Digital painting of Crowley standing with his back 3/4 to the viewer, naked to the waist, a long black cloth or robe draped around his hips. A shaft of moonlight bathes his upper back, defining the ridges of his shoulder blades and vertebrae. He looks over his shoulder, one eye locked on the viewer. A large gold snake tattoo loops around his shoulders and his visible upper arm, another coil appearing on his side. (Good Omens)

24Crows@kai-the-spiral· Jan 31

If you see this, post your orange art! ...It's always gonna be you, Centaurpede.

Digital painting of what if centaur but half-man, half-centipede instead. He has small vestigial pedipalps on his jaw, a pretty rad floppy mohawk, and an odd concave space below his pectoral line before his abs start. Color scheme of red, orange, yellow, and black. Worst thing I have ever created.

24Crows@kai-the-spiral· Jan 19

QRT if you're still drawing in 2026 and show proof! 👀

Digital painting of a young priest standing barefoot in a sunny (if undetailed) kitchen. He wears large red headphones over his collar-length curly brown hair. He's wearing an outfit best described as "clerical activewear": a loose sweatshirt with a clerical collar insert and a pair of black joggers that fall loose to the knees and hug the calves. His right hand is shoved into a pocket, and he holds a partially eaten banana with his left. A mug of coffee sits on a countertop just visible at his left elbow. He looks down and to the side, gaze resting on a bowl of cat food that has been played with but not eaten.
