Attack #2 is Jirayu for @micahdraws.bsky.social, his kineticist for Pathfinder's Season of Ghosts campaign! Wanted to draw him last year as well, but it seemed appropriate this year since I'm about to finish Season of Ghosts myself 👻 #Artfight #Artfight26

Digital drawing of a blue-skinned man with spiky slicked-back dark hair and pale green markings down his arms leaning against a red fence. His Hands are crossed, left on top of right, and he is looking off towards the left of the frame. He is wearing dark yellow trousers enclosed in a blue waistwrap, with a green belt and strip of fabric hanging from the front that is a darker green. He is shirtless, and his eyes do not have pupil or iris - just a circle of darker blue at the centre. A Japanese-style teacup is perched on the fence, just to his left (the right of the frame).

First #Artfight attack of the year, for @revelyan.bsky.social of Naos! Had fun drawing this stabby boi 🗡️🗡️🗡️ #art #myart #Artfight26 #TeamComedy

Digital drawing of a shirtless half elf man holding a dagger in front of his face and looking to the camera, with a slight smile. He has swept back black hair, glowing white eyes, the Baldur's Gate 3 flame tattoo on his neck, and phosphorescent paint under his eyes and on his chin. He is slightly lit from the right, allowing the glow of his eyes and the face paint to be seen.

Not good to have a bit of artblock in the runup to artfight, but I seem to be fighting my way out of it with an Elric 😌 #myart #WIP

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Jun 19

Artists, Art Fight is in two weeks, so show your attacks from previous years! ✨🎭 #artfight #artfight2026 #teamcomedy

He is wearing a sleeveless shirt, a skirt made of green-white feathers, and metal greaves. His exposed skin is marked with white tattoos in mystic and astrological designs. He is clutching an orange glowing egg to his chest. Artfight drawing of @/sailingkobold's character, Davian.

Digital drawing of a red-skinned tiefling curled up in a wooden chair, drawing in a pad of paper. Pinned to the wooden wall behind him are large pieces of paper with sketches of other characters on them - clockwise from the bottom left: a flame-haired fire genasi in a suit, with his arms raised; a dragonborn-satyr hybrid, sat provocatively on a ball; a reclining ice genasi; a feathered half-elf in a toga; and an elf whose colouring is equally split between black and white, kneeling and holding a staff.

Digital drawing of a human man holding a pistol and looking towards the right of the frame. He is wearing a blue jacket with no shirt underneath, several belts, and puffy dark trousers. He has glowing phosphourescent paint on his face, hands, and around his abs, and is standing between columned basalt rock in front of a starry background.

A landscape study with a bit of humanoid interest added in (my OC Cade), based on a photo of the Drakensberg mountains in South Africa 🌄 #art #myart #ocart #oc #landscape #landscapeart

Digital drawing of a cliffside running up the left-side of the frame, with the silhouette of a mountainside in the background wreathed in fog. A shirtless man stands on a rocky promontory, looking down over the mountainside and facing away from the camera. He has blonde hair and a tattoo between his shoulder blades, and is wearing blue trousers and a green martial arts sash around his waist. He is leaning on a wooden staff.

Another piece for #Mermay! Had a bit more fun the last couple of years of trying to find a design that matches my OC's personality, and I'm quite pleased with this one of Dread! 🐟 #art #myart #oc #ocart #originalcharacter

Digital drawing of a merman floating in the water and facing the camera, with his arms raised to cast a spell, and crackling energy surrounding his hands, both of which have glowing tattoos. He has a green tail, and blue-green wing-like fins emerging from his back, and is wearing bands around his right wrist and bicep. His brown hair is waving in the current.

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· May 26

I never finished my #Mermay piece last year, but things have been going better so I was able to finish it now! Trying a little something different with the design, to be more suited to Cade's personality 🦈 #art #myart #oc #ocart #originalcharacter

Digital drawing of a merman with the lower table of a shark and the upper body of a half-elf monk, with short blond hair, blue eyes, and pointed hears. He has leather bands aroudn his writst and one bicep, and a green martial arts sash around his waist. He is pointing a spear towards the bottom-right of the frame, where a cloud of blood is floating up from the corner, with a shocked expression on his face. The ocean surface is visible in the top-left of the frame.

A gift piece from back in 2024 for the GM of my Strahd group and their partner for their birthdays and anniversary, featuring the NPC Ireena and the party wizard. I'm still really pleased with this scene, I should do another someday 😁 #art #myart #dndart #oc #CurseOfStrahd

Digital drawing of two women standing in a dark wood, being attacked by zombies. The woman on the left, and closer to the viewer, is a mage wearing a loose thigh-length robe, and is channelling a blast of fire from a magicla orb to incinerate a zombie. The woman on the right, behind the mage, is the NPC Ireena, and is wearing armour and a red tabard. She has a sword raised above her head, ready to swing down at another zombie. There are three zombies in the foreground, in various states of decay, reaching for the characters at the centre.

Thanks for the space and happy Monday! ✨

Digital drawing of a man and a woman dancing together. The man (with red hair, a sleeveless shirt, and tattoos on his neck and raised arm) has his arms around the woman, one raised and the other by his waist, and is looking at her with a besotted expression. The woman (with purple hair in a braid, purple lipstick, and a blue blouse) is standing in front of him with her arms crossed in front of her and her hands in his. She is looking over her shoulder towards his face, and is smiling.

Digital drawing of Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist. He is standing in the centre of the frame, staring straight ahead, with his shirt ripped to show his automail right arm. He is holding his red coat in his right hand, and is resting his left hand on his right shoulder. His trousers are also ripped around his left knee, showing the automail left leg. The Truth grins in the background.

Digital drawing of a man in a suit of armour standing with his hands held out as if holding a ball, and a glowing stone floating between them. A mass of black tendrils studded with toothed mouths and red eyes looms behind him.

Digital drawing of a half-elf monk standing among some trees, resting his hands on the trunks of two trees that form an arch over his head, and peering curiously at something out of the left side of the frame. He has blond hair, cut short and spiked up at the front, blue eyes, and pointed ears. He is wearing a blue neckerchief, wrist bracers, no shirt, a green martial arts sash, and loose blue trousers obscured by branches in the foreground.

Being a slow artist means I don't normally have time to jump on trends, but I gave this a sketchy go. Jared likes to be silly from time to time 😉 It was fun, so I might do this properly if I can find the time... #art #myart #oc #ocart

Digital sketch of a human man wearing a revealing outfit in black and red. It includes fishnets, a black cloth hanging down from the front of his waist, a black short-sleved bolero that only covers his shoulders, a red strip around his chest that covers his nipples (and is connected to the bolero by black strips in the shape of an inverted pentagram), and a red collar with a red crystal hanging from its centre. He is standing with his arms held open, and looks towards the viewer with his head tilted down and a cocky expression.

If you see this, post a monster

Digital drawing of a mutated corgi that now has 6 insectoid legs emerging from its body, an extended neck that loops round, and a large slavering maw open in its chest. Its head is upside down, with two eyestalks emerging from its cheeks, and a long frog-like tongue.

Hello #PortfolioDay 👋 I'm Platyps, a hobby artist from the UK, who loves to draw TTRPG and fantasy characters 🐉🎲 and sometimes a bit of fanart!

Digital drawing of a shirtless bearded half-orc man, with scars across his body, sitting on a stone throne and lit by a shaft of light emanating from the top left of the frame. He is resting his left hand on the arm of the throne, and holding a sword in his right, with its tip resting on the ground in front of him. His left foot is resting on the skull of a sabre-toothed cat-like creature. He is looking fiercely towards the camera.

Digital drawing of a man standing with his metal right arm raised in celebration, his left holding a wine glass in front of him, and his head tilted back with a wide grin and closed eyes. He has dark hair tied in a ponytail, and is wearing a green and black carnival mask, and a fancy pruple tunic with green accents, no sleeves, and a deep v-neck. Several indistinct figures in carnival dress stand in the background.

An old #Trigun fanart from a while back that I dug out to finish in the run-up to Stargaze airing, where I tried to experiment with some high-contrast light. #art #myart #fanart #MillionsKnives #TrigunFanart

Digital drawing of Millions Knives, a character from the anime Trigun Stampede. It depicts him crouched atop a stone pillar in bright sunlight, his left hand gripping the top of the pillar, and his right arm raised across the front of his body and extruding metal blades from the back of his hand. He is snarling at the viewer. He is wearing a skin-tight bodysuit coloured pale grey, with darker lines patterned across it, which leaves his hands, feet, and head uncovered. He has blue eyes and pale blonde, spiky hair.

Little #WIP of Cade that I snuck into a landscape study as a small piece of humanoid interest #art #myart

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Mar 3

Something unusual for me - an old study of a cat I saw regularly around where I used to live (started 2024, returned to late 2025, after I moved). His name is Panteleimon, and he is a fine cat 🐈 #art #myart

Digital drawing of a tabby cat with a white chest and markings on its legs sitting on a brick wall, looking towards the viewer.

Got something cooking now that I've finished FMAB... #myart #art #WIP #FullmetalAlchemist

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Feb 12

Sometimes you pick a spell because (a) it's good and (b) it has *innuendo potential* - and then the first time you use it you crit and kill an enemy... This did about 80 points of damage 😬 #ttrpg #Pf2e

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Jan 30

First two books read of the year, both very good - although Malazan is Malazan, so any of those books is a lot. Murderbot was a lovely breath of fresh air afterwards, and I gotta get hold of the next one...

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Jan 21

First #art of the year! A semi-study of my #OC Jared, and I'm quite pleased with how it's come out! Feels like a good start to 2026 😁✨ [ #myart #ocart #ocsky ]

Digital drawing of a man leaning his shoulder against a well, with his hands in his pockets. He is looking over towards the right of the frame (his left) and smiling at something off camera. He is wearing a long blue coat that is open to expose a muscular chest and abs.

It's #PortfolioDay! I'm Platyps, a hobby artist from the UK who loves to draw fantasy and TTRPG characters! 🐉 Portfolio: cara.app/peculiarplatyps #art #oc #digitalart

Digital drawing of a muscular man standing in a lake, with the water level coming up to his hips. The skin of his arms is discoloured and blue, with strange runes etched on them, and he is wearing leather bands hung with charms around them. His hair is also coming through blue, and he is looking towards the top left of the frame.

I was meant to be rendering something else today, but since I'm finally getting to watch some more FMAB tonight I got distracted... #myart #WIP #FanArt #FullmetalAlchemist #FMA #EdwardElric

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Jan 8

Congrats on 3.6k and thanks for hosting!!! ✨ I'm Platyps, I love drawing my D&D OCs and sometimes a bit of fanart 🐉 Here are some of my favourites from last year!

Digital drawing of Edward Elric, main character of the anime & manga "Fullmetal Alchemist." The drawing depicts a young man with golden hair and eyes, worn with bangs on either side of the face and a single braid at the back. He is wearing a tucked-in vest that shows his metal right arm, a thick leather belt, and dark trousers. He is standing with his hands in his pockets, moodily looking off to the right of the frame.

Didn't do a lot of art over Christmas and New Year, but started making some sketchy OC refsheets! (something I've been meaning to do for ages...) #oc #ocsky

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Dec 30

Some non-art related high points from my 2025: ⛰️ Family vacation to the Dolomites! 🔥 Played with fire for the first time in ages! 🦾 Got into Fullmetal Alchemist far too late! 🐉 Many excellent D&D nights with friends! Hoping for more good times in 2026!!!

It's the time of year for art recaps again - very pleased with how my art's progressed in 2025, despite my life bouncing between high highs and low lows this year. Here's to more art in 2026! ✨ #art #artsummary #artsummary2025 #bskyart #ocsky

PeculiarPlatyps@peculiarplatyps· Dec 15

Experimenting with some injury art, started while watching the Briggs arc of #FullmetalAlchemist - so wound up drawing Ed after a rough fight. He gets thrown around a lot, doesn't he? (cw: blood, minor injury) #FMA #FMAB #myart #FanArt
