Evidently Spyro's getting a new game! I remember drawing this fan art years ago when the Reignited series was announced \o/!! [ #Art #Artwork #Spyro #SpyrotheDragon #Fanart ]

Ok time for my obligatory birthday post 🎉 My shameless request is the same as last year (browse my gallery, reshare some favs, visit my websites, please & thank u!!) but this time I'll package it with some art from my personal project about the Egyptian gods. [ #DEITIESProject #Art #OCs #OCSky ]

Artwork of the divine royal family of gods and goddesses from Ancient Egyptian mythology, as their characters appear in Deities of Duat / DEITIES Project. From left to right are Anubis, Nephthys, Set, Horus, Isis, and Osiris.

They're all wearing their full regalia with headdresses/crowns, and are displayed in a "group shot" arrangement where their poses are interacting with each other -- in particular, Set antagonizing Horus, and their family observing in their respective ways.

Reference artwork of the Egyptian gods Set, Horus, and Anubis (from DEITIES Project / Deities of Duat), in their respective animal forms. The text for each read as follows:

Set -- "A Sha Animal with traits based on both canines and felines, particularly hounds and hunting dogs; Roughly the size and height of a Great Dane.
Red fur and yellow eyes; Wears gold collar, and gold bands on forearms and at base of tail.
Eyes display black sclera when using Chaos magic.
The Chaos Seal (featuring a small diagram displaying a glowing, scarab-like seal that is marked along Set's mid- and lower-back)."

Horus -- "A falcon, based on both the Peregrine falcon and Lanner falcon; Young adult plumage with blue and grey eyes; Wears gold bands on feet and gold collar draped across back."

Anubis -- "A jackal with unusually solid black fur, based on the Black-backed jackal; Orange eyes; Wears a golden collar with a pendant, and wrappings around forepaws."

A full-color, fullbody lineup of the major cast of Ancient Egyptian gods from my visual story Deities of Duat / DEITIES Project. There are 20 gods displayed in this artwork, each wielding their divine weapons, but without wearing their headdress (for the sake of displaying their heights more accurately).

In order from left to right, the characters on the first row are Set, Horus, Anubis, Osiris, Isis, Nephthys, Bastet, Sekhmet, Thoth, and Ra.

On the second row, the characters are Mafdet, Hathor, Serqet, Sobek, Wepwawet, Montu, Shezmu, Pakhet, Anuket, and Yamm.

Sharing this gift for my friend @whotisthis.bsky.social -- Happy Birthday Anie!! 🎉 Featuring her gorgeous demon lord OC, King Vinea. This was an indulgent character study that I ended up polishing in time for the occasion \o/ [ #Vinea #Dantalion #Lucius // #Art #Giftart #OCs #OCSky #FantasyVerse ]

Artwork featuring the character design for King Vinea, a high-ranking demon lord in a Fantasy AU with friends.

Vinea's design features a lot of deep purples and blues, including a long royal blue cape. She has pale silver eyes and a pair of silver demon horns that curve back around her head.

This character sheet has roughly five different instances of Vinea, including some small interactions with a few of her royal subjects, Dantalion and Lucius (detailed further in the next images).

Vinea belongs to @whotisthis.bsky.social
Dantalion belongs to @tenicola.bsky.social (me lol)
Lucius belongs to @littlescorpio.bsky.social

Cropped close-up of Vinea and her royal guard and retainer, Dantalion (a Lympago nephilim). Dante is in the midst of sharing some interesting intel (or juicy gossip) with Vinea, which has piqued her interest.

Dantalion belongs to @tenicola.bsky.social (me lmao)

Cropped close-up of Vinea and one of her young subjects, Lucius (a Griffin demon). Vinea is holding up and supporting a large book for Luci to eagerly read.

That One Meme™ but with Valor and Rita cuz it encapsulates their dynamic perfectly /o/ Valor is mine, Rita belongs to @littlescorpio.bsky.social [ #Rita #Valor #LiarLiars // #Art #Giftart #Comics #OCs #OCSky ]

PANEL 1 of Rita and Valor standing side by side. Rita grins with a wink and holds up a peace sign with her hand, while Valor stands with folded arms and a serious, unmoved expression.

PANEL 2 of Rita and Valor standing side by side. Rita turns her head to look over to Valor. She maintains her wide smile, but notices Valor's serious expression (which has not changed at all since Panel 1).

PANEL 3 of Rita and Valor standing side by side. Rita turns hear back forward again, this time with a pout replacing her smile, and lowering her hand.

It's evident that she's trying to mimic the same serious expression as Valor (which still hasn't changed since Panels 1 and 2).

Another for the PKMN logo series, Diana served as a foil & rival to Valor when I first added her to the team roster. I'm forever amused at how emphatic the SWSH dex entry is for Liepard, and how well it fits Diana's vibe to a T. [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Diana // #Liepard #Pokemon #Pokemon30 #PKMNVerse ]

Artwork of my OC / character, Diana, as she appears in her Liepard form, with the pokeball symbol behind her. She holds a confident stance while curling her long tail, and gives a knowing smirk to the viewer.

Diana appears similar to an average Liepard, though I draw her more toned with 'sharper' features, and she wears a Razor Claw as a wrap around her left forepaw. While unseen from this image, she also has a small mole under her right eye.

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Apr 7

Also the logo comparisons. I had to subvert the pose in the official art for Gardevoir just a bit, because the airplane arms felt a lot less creative and dynamic compared to Gallade's pose. Lowering one arm made it flow much better and feel more fun to approach!

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Apr 7

Finally nudged myself to tackle the logo for my Gardevoir, and then I thought "what if I place my OTP together in the same post tho…" So I'm sharing an updated version of my Gallade as well! \o/ [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Charity #Valor #ValorCharity // #Gardevoir #Gallade #Pokemon #Pokemon30 #PKMNVerse ]

Artwork of my OC / character, Charity, as she appears in her Gardevoir form, with the pokeball symbol behind her.

She extends her arm to the side and gives the viewer a small, gentle smile, while her dress drapes down and alongside her. Charity appears similar to an average Gardevoir, and wears a Soothe Bell as a choker around her neck.

Artwork of my OC / character, Valor, as he appears in his Gallade form, with the pokeball symbol behind him.

He displays a serious expression and motions his large hand, arm-blades at rest, while wearing his Expert Belt around his waist. Valor appears similar to an average Gallade, though I draw him more toned with 'sharper' features and with wider hips and legs compared to the official on-model artwork.

[2/2] Set also has a giant primeval state of being that is inspired by prehistoric entelodonts ("hell pigs"). This is a temporary state that he can only shift into under special circumstances + high concentrations of chaos energy, & he currently cannot assume this state due to the seal on his back…

Rough sketch in a red monochrome of Set, with his larger primordial "state of being" situated beside him and in the backdrop. Both forms have his yellow eyes glowing with a streak of red.

Older pencil sketches of Set's primordial / primeval state of being, which visually appears like a mix between a Sha animal and a giant, boar-like beast, along with other hybrid features.

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Mar 27

[1/2] Every deity in #DEITIESProject can transform (shapeshift) to/from their sacred animal(s), but #Set is a masterclass who can shift into 30+ animal forms. He's most known for his form as a Sha animal, & while he enjoys taking this form at his leisure, it's also practical when roaming the desert

ASKBOX: OK I have one more question what in the hell type of animal are you?

Set, all chuffed up in animal form: "The most 'Fabulous Animal' you've ever laid eyes on~"

Standalone artwork of Set as he appears in Deities of Duat in his sacred animal form, a Sha animal. The reference displays fullbody art with Set's base colors, and contains the following text (rearranged here for better flow):

"A Sha Animal with traits based on both canines and felines, particularly hounds and hunting dogs; Roughly the size and height of a Great Dane.
Red fur and yellow eyes; Wears gold collar, and gold bands on forearms and at base of tail.
Eyes display black sclera when using Chaos magic.
The Chaos Seal (featuring a small diagram displaying a glowing, scarab-like seal that is marked along Set's mid- and lower-back)."

Next up for the PKMN logo series, and the last of the youngin' trio with Kudzu -- the crude class clown, the team troll, and the good-humored hype master when warranted. I also draw him /very/ off model from most Servine. [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Kudzu // #Servine #Pokemon #Pokemon30 #PKMNVerse ]

Artwork of my OC / character, Kudzu, as he appears in his Servine form, with the pokeball symbol behind him.

He gives a toothy grin at the viewer with a raised snout, and wears a Amulet coin around his neck. Kudzu is a brighter green and has longer, more prominent forearms than most Servine, with small fraying in the crest atop his head.

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Mar 11

We continue the PKMN logo series with the team's pedigree prima-donna Mawile. Sterling holds a preference for PKMN contests to battles, but she still has a fierce bite. [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Sterling // #Mawile #Pokemon #Pokemon30 #PKMNVerse ]

Artwork of my OC / character, Sterling, as she appears in her Mawile form, with the pokeball symbol behind her.

She gives the viewer a small, coy smile over her shoulder while her back jaws open slightly ajar, and she wears a cloth choker with a Razor Fang. Unlike most Mawile, Sterling has a widow’s peak marking on her forehead, and side-swept “bangs.”

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Mar 9

As I mentioned, I'm aiming to draw many more of my OC 'mons in this anniversary logo template \o/ we resume with the designated starter, team mascot, and overall lovable Quilava from my devART OCT days. [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Quincy // #Quilava #Pokemon #Pokemon30 #PKMNVerse ]

Artwork of my OC / character, Quincy, as he appears in his Quilava form, with the pokeball symbol behind him.

He smiles at the viewer with his flames ignited, wears a collar with a Shell Bell, and holds a Lava Cookie in his forepaw. Quincy has fluffier chest fur than most Quilava, as well as a tuft of fur on his back, between his shoulder blades.

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Feb 27

Happy 30th Anniversary to Pokemon!! I adore the custom logos that were made for every single 'mon, and the one for Gallade is one of my favorites, so I drew Valor in a matching pose as a tribute for the occasion! [ #Art #OCs #OCSky #Valor // #Gallade #Pokemon #PokemonDay #PKMNVerse #PKMNArt ]

One more little bonus to underscore how much of a Big Deal™ this is for Chet \o/ Featuring my other three sanic-style bois being absolutely shook. [ #Art #Comics #OCs #OCSky #Chester #Roscuro #Ricki #Reese #SonicOC #SonicTeamVerse ]

Part 1 of 2 -- Comic artwork featuring Sonic-style characters. The first panel features Chester/Chet [the Lemur] as he kicks open a door and yells in the same manner as the popular "Mom Holy F---" meme.

Chet: "GUYS. HOLY F--CK."

As Chet kicks open the door (to an implied bar establishment), Ricki [the Rabbit] turns slightly from his bar seat to give Chet an unimpressed gaze. The bartender, Roscuro/Rosco [the Bat], continues quietly wiping the counter, seemingly unbothered by the patrons.

Ricki: "What on earth are you on about now, mate--"

Chet: "I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND NOW."

Part 2 of 2 -- Comic artwork featuring Sonic-style characters.

Upon hearing Chet's exclamation, both Rosco and Ricki react in visible [comedic] shock. Rosco's eye snaps open as he halts cleaning the counter and perks his ears slightly. Ricki's gaze shifts to disbelief, as his rabbit ears swivel up to attention, and his mouth hangs ajar.

Meanwhile, Reese [the Weasel] slides along the counter into the conveniently empty bar stool, an excited expression on his face.

Reese: "Wait -- Chet has a girl now??"

The remainder of the page are overlapping dialogue bubbles in rapid fire, color coordinated to each of the four characters:

Reese: "DUUUUDE--"

Ricki: "WHEN and HOW did this happen--"

Reese: "So you're finally dating?"

Chet: "I thinks so?? She told me she was mine and I was hers and I said the same so now we're official and we're dating and--" (he cuts himself off with a wheeze)

Rosco: "Take it easy now~ You can give us the details after you take a breather~"

TFW the cute OC ship becomes official in time for Valentine's Day 💖 Based on RP replies between me and Jenn! Chet is mine, while Neon belongs to @oiichyo.com [ #Art #Giftart #Comics #OCs #OCSky #Chester #Neon #ChetNeon ]

Page 1 of 4 -- Comic artwork featuring characters Chester (Chet) and Neon -- both typically sonic-style OCs, but depicted in their human/gijinka forms. Chet [the lemur] has sandy-blond hair and green eyes, while Neon [the echidna] has long, bright pink hair and purple eyes.

Intro Commentary: "…After lots of nervous fumbling of words while asking for 'another night' together…"

Chet, while nervously rubbing his neck: "I'd just... like to see where this takes us, is all. And make sure you're getting what you want out of this, too."

Chet continues while Neon glances at him with an amused smile: "If you want to keep things steady, or stay casual, o-or..."

He pauses in the last panel, as Neon reaches to tug his hand away in hers…

Page 3 of 4 -- Comic artwork featuring characters Chet and Neon.

The bulk of this page's dialogue is Chet's answer, but the visuals focus on his hands intertwining with Neon's, and his nervous smile through blushing as he waits for Neon's favorable reaction.

Chet: "… I... want... you, Neon."

"I want to spend more time with you... And ask you on more dates... And make you laugh..."

"And... indulge [REDACTED ❤] with you, th-that too--"

"I want to start something with you… o-officially. But only... if you want the same--"

Page 4 of 4 -- Comic artwork featuring characters Chet and Neon.

Before Chet can finish his last word, Neon leans up to smooch him -- much to Chet's visible surprise in the first panel, where he forms a deep blush across his face. A moment later, his gaze relaxes and shifts to admiring heart-eyes… then his eyes fully close as he reciprocates their kiss in the final panel.

The remaining dialogue from Neon would follow after their kiss ends, but is shared here as lingering commentary:

"I want to do all of those things with you…"

"I want you too, Chet…"

[1/2] Half of my personal characters are based off pokemon gijinka sooooo /slides over to the DEITIES-- Set's a league-rank trainer w/ two ace 'mons, which are both variants of Zoroark. I'm less decisive on Horus's team by the time he becomes champion rank, but his main would be his shiny Gallade.

Artwork of my character Set (from DEITIES Project) appearing as a pokemon trainer, with one of his team pokemon, a Hisuian Zoroark.

Red-monochrome artwork of Set appearing as a pokemon trainer with some of his other partner 'mons -- including his [normal variant] Zoroark, and a Tepig that resembles his Setspawn in DEITIES Project.

Blue-monochrome artwork of Horus appearing as a pokemon trainer with some of his team 'mons, including his Sivally, Pidgeot, and Shiny Gallade. Horus is also wearing a Mega Stone, implied to be for his Gallade.

Several of them do! I think my OCs /without/ piercings are the minority, but many have the typical lobe piercings (usually studs, but some are more intricate). Here are some of the varieties that come to mind from my personal roster. I'll describe them in the alt text for ease. [ #Art #OCs #OCsky ]

A 4-by-4 grid featuring cropped artwork of my Personal OCs displaying their piercings. They include the following examples, from left to right and down:

(1) Phizzuroh (Zuro) has an industrial piercing across his left ear (and while unseen here, he has cuff piercings on the helix of his right ear).

(2) Roscuro (Rosco) has typical lobe piercings, and favors gold hoops.

(3) Morgue wears ear gauges, which requires stretching their earlobe "piercings," so to speak.

(4) Chester (Chet) has two brow piercings on his right eyebrow, in addition to two piercings on the lower part of both ears.

Another 4-by-4 grid featuring cropped artwork of my Personal OCs displaying their piercings. They include the following examples, from left to right and down:

(1) Bridgett has three piercings on... well, actually, hard to say when we're talking about her long rabbit ears. I suppose it'd be the equivalent conch area.
(2) Pitch has a nose bridge piercing, as well as one lobe piercing on his left ear.
(3) Moxie has a brow piercing on her left eyebrow, and two lobe piercings.
(4) Ammo has snake bites (under-lip piercings), and helix + lobe piercings on each ear.

The "last but not least" sixth of the reintroductions, the gentle-natured Goddess of Service. The role Nephthys plays in DEITIES Project is understated -- in direct contrast with her chaotic husband -- but deeply vital to the story. [ #Nephthys #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Jan 9

Fifth of the reintroductions, the queen and mother of the crown prince. Safe to say Isis was Set's original opposition (and vice versa) -- both in her effort to avenge her husband's murder, and the culmination of divine sibling rivalry. [ #Isis #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Jan 8

Fourth of the reintroductions, the undead king of the Egyptian underworld. I don't feature Osiris nearly as often as I'd like, but he does play a key part of the major cast. Also has the least amount of skin showing in the cast, too-- [ #Osiris #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Jan 7

Third from the reintroductions, the recognizable but reserved jackal god. Anubis is the deity I probably relate to most out of the cast, so I have a special soft spot for his character. That said, it can't be easy being the son of Set. [ #Anubis #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Jan 6

Next up for reintroductions is the designated royal heir and falcon prince! Without the context of his mortal-enemy-uncle antagonizing him, Horus probably looks more fierce than usual here, but he's usually quite good-tempered. [ #Horus #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]

Teni || ArtFight / Team Tragedy@tenicola· Jan 5

New year, new [re]introductions to the divine royal family. Starting with the red-haired God of Chaos, I'll feature each of the deities separate from the group shot, along with their titles, domains, and some of their historical epithets. [ #Set #Art #OCs #OCSky #DEITIESProject #EgyptianMythology ]
