Sheo's on his way to the final Stranglethorn Vale Beach Bash this summer, and he's bringin' the drinks with him! I look forward to making a few more special memories on those beloved sands. Let's get one last killer sunburn for the road, shall we? 🔆 #stvbb #stvbb26 #draenei #wow #art 🔆

Hey what's up I'm still drawing ponies --G6 info was a badly needed shot of sugar, so I'm clawing my way out of the doldrums by putting Twilight Sparkle on your timeline. I'd say sorry but it's a little too late for that #mlp #FiM #foreverfriendship #art I'm excited to meet her all over again 🌟💜

a digital art painting of Twilight Sparkle, from my little pony: friendship is magic, or 'forever friendship'. She sits in a colorful area, cloudy and dreamy, with a distant rainbow behind her. She smiles brightly toward the viewer, raising one hoof in a cheerful pose.

something something apple bottom jeans. applejeans --For today's warmup it's back to horse related shitposting because SOMEONE posted the 'animals wearing pants like X or Y' meme (🧡) and I had to take it upon myself to fulfill that specific brand of awful. Thanks Applejack for your service #MLP #FiM

applejack from g4 my little pony standing in a field with distant apple trees. she wears silly aviator glasses, and jeans worn entirely the wrong way (on her lower body, with the belt going horizontally across her.) she chews on a stick of wheat, looking TOTALLY serious.

Wait I got a great idea. It's crop top season babes, have another wip under-sketch (I gotta take care of some other obligations before I can turn this into an ACTUAL beachgoer reference, but you better believe I'll be there for the last big bash. I'll circle back to this and finish it later!)

Taking a few minutes to set up an About page on my art carrd because all the cool kids are doin it these days, and so have the critter doodle that goes with it. I still don't have a name for this thing but it serves its purpose well :]

Ok, I gotta stop being so scared to show my process. Have some early-on horn rendering since I'm taking my immediate surroundings on this journey anyway?? Ended up fixing the shadows on these later but I'm figuring things out one way or another dude

🎧Ness | Open for Work!👑@rhythmcrown· 25d

yeah sure, GO, MY #art WIP I've been recording my rendering for this one (timelapse, if I can figure it out?) & it's been teaching me a lot. Mostly that I jump layers too much and need to organize my particle effects better, but hey, you win some you lose some. Stars make brain do the happy juice 🌠

I don't think I've shown you this thing that lives here in quite some time. Here have a kitten in a series of adorable events (I love you, Miss Joanie No-Pants)

oh my god wait no it's from april of LAST YEAR. I found the original under-sketch, now i HAVE to finish this (alongside other work I PROMISE) because it's haunting my peripherals and the lines still hold up on the WIP i think i should get back to drawing monsters. maybe that would fix me a little

Digging through my WIPs to find some momentum and found this #art of my DH from months ago that I should really finish rendering. It's either from two months ago or it's older because of a file snafu BUT either way I'm putting it into the ether so I don't forget about him. I miss this monster

🎧Ness | Open for Work!👑@rhythmcrown· Jul 8

Alright alright alright I can't wait to bombard this with rim lighting 🌌☄️ #art It's been a long road to get my juice back, but I must remember that the cure to misery is oftentimes just drawing your freaky little guys doing cool stuff. Let's see if that holds

Hey what's up I actually finished a goal for once --last season took me 156 games for the same thing, but a combination of factors and sheer stupid luck means I maybe don't suck as bad as I think I do sometimes. I really, really, really like this spec

Oh baby am I tryin' --Retooling an old sketch on the side to bring it up to Exodion's current appearance, and as ever, I'm back on my wizard bullshit. That's ok I'm happy here #WIP

This broken preview animation on the trading post feels somehow appropriate for the current state of affairs. Don't ask me how. It just does

'Where you been?' Climbing up from robust burnout. My god. I've had to ghost a bit while I salvage my energy, but for now, have some WIP sketches from the tire fire. I'll do something w/ these eventually; surely between the WoW brain & the XIV one I'll hit inspiration gold #art yeah, sure, why not

a series of colored sketches. clockwise from the top left:

1. An eredar mage in motion as if dragged along by a current, looking serious, preparing to cast a spell.
2. A sleepy looking chibi mascot-like character with various accessories, scrunched in front of a monitor with a tablet and pen.
3. Bust of an elderly Elezen wizard peering down at the viewer, hair billowing.
4. A Draenei man crouched and sitting back on his hocks, guiding a small gust of wind with a casual smile.
5. An elezen man smiling over his shoulder at the viewer, reaching one arm up to the sky, wrapped in vines.

What year is it --I've spent too much time wallowing in guilt & grief, & it's time to clean up the place. If I've not gotten back to you in a bit, & I owe you correspondence of any kind, would you do me the honor of a poke? Or a thrown brick. That works too. Going down the list as I reconstitute

Dragging myself out of burnout one scribble at a time. The grandpaposting will continue until my morale improves. --Too many of my sets are super complex, so I figured I'd dress him down just a little. Still fancy but he's incapable of the 'casual' in business casual lmao ◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊

an elderly eredar mage leans against a stone wall in stormwind city. he is very narrow in figure, with tall horns, purple skin, and lavender-white hair in a bun. his clothing is elegant, in shades of maroon, mauve, and red.

7mo diff after reworking an old unshared piece. The wizardposting will continue. Lines & colors have stabilized, even for 'sketchy', & that feels good. How do we feel about body horror around here, do I post the whole thing at some point or let it marinate in the spoiler bin ◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊

Exodion gets a new armor set & ref sheet today, after NPC-ing it in the same gear since the DoTI patch. He finally feels like a proper wizard, all stars & glitter & way too much sass to be healthy. He's been a treasure to write & make art for, hope to live here awhile longer ◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊

A reference sheet for an elderly Eredar mage, with three views of the character. He stands alone on an alien world colored in pastel hues against a starry backdrop, with a planet looming overhead. He is purple with lavender-white streaked hair in a bun, with tall double-pronged horns. He wears battle armor with coattails and a large cape, in hues of blue, purple, and gold. The mage is shown casting two spells, one made of shadow and twisting nether magic, the other an arcane rune. Overall, the mood of the character is stern and confident.

On top of the image is the text: Exodion / The Helionstar.

Still tweaking the last bits on a new ref & I'll post the whole thing later, but I thought I'd grab some snapshots since the last one for this char was 1y ago. Turns out improvement happens, even when you can't see it, so please stay obsessed w/ your OCs. shit's the only way forward #art

four comparison shots of a reference sheet of the same character. one shows the difference in legs, the next is a conjured portal, followed by a hair bun, and lastly an arcane rune. each image shows improvement over one year. at the bottom is a message: 'bro. I know it's hard. but you gotta keep going. do it for your blorbos ok'

These are the nicest & fruitiest hands I've drawn in weeks so I'll immortalize them before I move to rendering. My health & energy has been in shambles for a while but I am TRYING!! to get my spark by any means necessary!! I will be less of a ghost soon, with any luck (WIP)

Crawling out of my cognitive dead zone again by listening to 2010s dubstep & picking at new ref sheets for my boys. I swear I'm not dead, just coming back from The Horrors, & I'll catch up on obligation when it stops feeling like hot coals 😭 For now, I full-steam recharge my own interests (WIP)

a collection of scribbles: a silhouette of a cartoonish wolf, a mock-up background thumbnail of space, and three gesture drawings of an elderly eredar wizard. the artist tries to narrow down their thoughts with various notes, such as 'i'll use this bastard for something else probably' and 'cape??'

🎧Ness | Open for Work!👑@rhythmcrown· Mar 7

I should start sharing my idiotic POTGs while I'm back on the Overwatch bug. Been locked on Sigma for awhile (& no one was surprised) & I've had some pretty scuffed moments, a lot of flailing, but sometimes I get a dub in there while I'm failing to fly-swatter the supports lmfao

🎧Ness | Open for Work!👑@rhythmcrown· Mar 5

Trying desperately to find my spark again, so I drew what creates joy. Figured I'd go back to basics & draw something whimsical! Sometimes u gotta bring your weird dog into a mana tank & let him chase around some shadow magic for enrichment ◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊

an elderly eredar mage in battle robes floats in an abstract space next to a fel hound, both apparently in zero gravity. the eredar is smiling down at the beast while he manipulates various runes and mana screens, and the fel hound flails after a trailing orb of shadow magic to eat it. The mood is bright, sparkly, and lighthearted.

I'm kind of mediocre at everything except facetanking everything I absolutely shouldn't, but you know what? I'm having fun. Good game. Missed it. I'm also fast on the screenshot trigger so i got that going for me. Sorry lifeweaver, you deserve better than the cover fire I tried to give you

I got back into overwatch a few days ago just to see if Frank could run it/to use as a dopamine recharge, and I think my mains are quickly shaping up as some sort of Type. Gravity grandpa (ha. ha ha) is about to overtake the tire fire in an entirely unpredictable sweep that no one foresaw /s

hELLO that's some new faces, good heavens --I'm Ness! I draw mostly Draenei with a smattering of commissions in between! All I do is draw OCs, play WoW, & battle approx. 5,000 health debuffs at any given moment. If you like things with hooves, horns, & magic, you're probably not -that- lost tbh

Turns out, self indulgent stuff remains the key to burnout. Had a capital-I Incident the other night between Exodion & @jackaboi-art.bsky.social's Venmaar, & I couldn't get the resulting clash outta my brain. They're both so stupid & violent & they WILL reap the consequences ◊ #Draenei #WoW #Art ◊

In the sands of K'aresh, a Man'ari warrior and a purple Eredar mage are locked in combat. The Man'ari parries a blow from the other's conjured mana shield with an enormous polearm, spewing fel and anima magic. The mage charges into the warrior leaving a trail of shadow magic behind, who is bracing himself in the sand. Both characters snarl viciously at one another, and there's a clear hatred and hostility between them.
