It may be crazy hazy but the show must go on. It's time for another 3rd Thursday Street Fest in Willimantic, CT! Swing by from 6pm to 9pm and Show Some Love! = D

Photo of the familiar white and purple striped tent for 'Homemade by Ma'. On the purple wrapped tables are an assortment of crocheted items from hats to baby clothes. On the hanging rack are a number of shrugs and longer items. On the front table sits a box of crocheted face masks with replaceable filters for the smoke and dust.

I love how this shows how often I'll change things like the arm length so it's relatively "Correct" looking... as much as the weird stuff I make could ever be "Correct". = ) #Artwork #Digital #Sketch #WiP #FurryArt

Photo of my Tablet PC Thingie. On screen is the showering soon-to-be Mouse Girl pic from before. Her arm has been inked. You can see the previous blue sketch and the original pencil thumbnail underneath it and they are all a different length. The final has been matched to the vague size of the girl's body as best as I could manage.

Had some funds. Decided to give this a try. If the stuff I've seen are true, these little Xenostrike kits might make for decent pose reference. = ) #Plamo #3minProject #Xenostrike

Photo of my Art Desk. On it sits a box for 3 Minute Project kit. It's a black box the the very humanoid looking Xenostrike robot looking very dramatic in blue plastic. It stands in front of a black background with reddish backlight. The box itself is flanked by my two SDCS Gundam figures looking interested and a little miffed by this non-Gunpla kit on the desk with them.

Ha! Nice. Kinda' surprised I still have this in my files. When I say that these are not great, trust that I'm not just parroting old Gamer Lore. That Pac-Man is Rough & ET is, well... it's okay for a demo. o.O

Photo of a couple of old Atari 2600 games. They are the original Pac-Man and ET: The Extra-Terrestrial. The ET cart is looking Extra rough. The Pac-Man has random MLB stickers on it. Both have my last name on them.

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· Jul 12

Verify your age: Owned these before they were considered "Retro".

Photo of four Atari games - two for the 2600 and two for the 7800. It's showing off the older and newer versions of Donkey Kong Junior and Ms. Pac-Man. The name "Amill" is written on all of them as was the style at the time.

Artists, show your WiPs! >.<

Photo of my Main System's main monitor. On screen is the same Illustrator file I've been working on only with all of the inks finished. Over the left shoulder of the anthro Bunny Girl, we see her friend standing in a doorway. A normal human teen boy with a late 80's/early 90's inspired short haircut with a bit of cartoony floof in the bangs. He's sporting boots, baggy jeans and a layered t-shirt with a short sleeved shirt over a long sleeve shirt. He's looking in the direction of his fluffy friend with concern. In his hand is a first aid box. Beneath him is the now full colored title: "I was a Teenage Werebunny". The blocky and slightly rough font is in a very slightly orange looking safety yellow while the word "Teenage" is lit up in a process magenta and written like a neon sign.

Hey artists, post an artwork you did before Bluesky

Tradigital color pic of an anthro Monkey from 2016. The Monkey in question is Murphy and he is an agent of chaos. He sport a red short sleeved shirt over a white long sleeved shirt and a pair of blue jeans. He's leaning in a comically large stylized double sided wrench. Murphy smirks at the viewer while giving a flaming thumbs up while being surrounded by a column of fire.

Picked at this a bit more tonight... #Artwork #Digital #Sketch #WiP #FurryArt #MouseGirl

Photo of my Tablet PC Thingie. On screen is the pic from before, zoomed into the head and back of the nameless woman in the shower. Her ear is larger than normal and she's starting to develop a classic set of mousy buck teeth. Her hair is slicked back save of a couple of think strands of hair off the front of her head. Like the soap print ads of old, she had a massive open mouth grin - almost scarily so - that no one has ever had in a shower outside of the advertising this is a parody of.

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· Jul 5

Why sketch the body if it'll be obscured by a foggy glass wall? 'Cause the best silhouettes come from knowing where everything is. = ) #Artwork #Digital #Sketch #WiP #FurryArt

Photo of my Tablet PC Thingie. On screen is a blown up version of the sketch of a lady in a shower for a parody soap ad. In the upper right hand corner is a quickie 3D pose mockup to help with the odd angles on the legs. On top of the original pencils is a very hastily drawn blue line sketch of the woman's body. Her hands, a leg and a long mousy tail showing the transition from normal human lady to a Squeaky Clean anthro mouse lady.

When it's too hot & your physical form breaks down...

Panel from the short story, 'Genesis', from Weird Science-Fantasy Number 29 from May of 1955. We see the amorphous blob of flesh, once a man named Lee, as it begins to divide in two. Text of Lee's thoughts read: "It's as if... as if... Oh, Lord!... as if I am becoming Nothing... a Blob of Protoplasm without shape or substance..."

Ad for Biff No.670. It's a color clip from the cover of the latest Biff comic collection - Volume 7: [REDACTED]. We see everyone's favorite character, [NULL], in his classic outfit of a bleached canvas jacket with brown trim around the collar over a grey t-shirt and blue jeans. They're sporting a faded blue ball cap flipped backwards. [NULL]'s hair pokes from the opening in the back. They have a confused look on their face. Behind them is the typical full moon and fog used on all the Biff Books.

Kinda' lost track of time on this but Hey! Have a Comic. o.o #Artwork #Traditional #Pencil #Comic #MakeATerribleComicDay2026

Photo of a penciled comic. Title: "Homecoming...". We see a person suiting up in a slim fitting space suit. They put on the helmet with a Clack! and a hiss. Doing a check, they get a computer voice saying "All Systems - Nominal". As the ship's doors open with a classic Star Trek "Shff!", they stand in shadow against the bright lights of the outdoors... only to be greated by a four armed hoodie wearing bug-like alien in a very non-alien residential area. The bug puts a hand on the suited up person's shoulder and say "Hun? You know we're back on Earth right?". The suited person shrugs. They reply "Just let me have this.".

Become Bunny o.o #Artwork #Traditional #Pencil #FurryArt #BunnyBoy

Photo of my sketchbook. On the page is an anthro Bunny sporting jeans and a t-shirt looking toward the viewer. It's a fairly simple pose with a twist. The bunny boy is holding his left hand. We catch a glimpse of his right arm and hand still looking a bit human. He stands in front of kinda' sorta' blank signage that, if done right, was going to say "Become Bunny" repeated across the various lines.

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· Jun 21

Work on the "Thing" continues... o.o #Artwork #Traditional #Pencil #Sketch #FurryArt #Mouse

Photo of my sketchbook. On the page are the continued adventures of Fake Advertising. Text reads "Squeaky Soap - Sketches". Below is a quickie sketch of a human woman in a shower with an awkwardly short glass wall. We see her from behind washing her arm. The hand closest to the water is a mousy claw. Through the glass, we see her silhouette as a mousy tail finds its way out the side. Notes next to it read "Use soap bubbles as border of Mouse/Man", "Fix shower head" and "Mak a bit Too happy". Below that is a pair of headshots. The human one is titled "Clean". The anthro mouse one is titled "Squeaky Clean". Both have the same look and hairstyle implying they are a before and after of the same lady. Notes for them read: "Make look like Polaroids", "Ape 'Zestimonials' style" and "Fix Eyes on Mouse!".

Sounds like fun. Here's Lady Luck/my comic's vers of Death - Pollyanna Orcus. = )

Traditional monochrome pencil pic from 2011. We see a stylized vision of Death - a skeletal woman with long claw-like fingers in a hooded robe based off of Grim's from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" and the shapeshifting cape from "Spawn". She has long eyelashes coming from her very eye shaped empty orbital sockets and a mouth with teeth-like marks that are more lip-like than bone. Her robe shows her to somehow still have a chest and hips despite her look. She's holding onto a large scythe with a bird skull backing the blade wrapped in a similar material to her robe. She's backed by a full moon and flanked by a moody fog.

Traditional pencil pic from Drawlloween 2017. We see Polly dressed as Reaper from the "Overwatch" game series. She's more cartoonish than her first appearance in 2011 with the same eyes, eyelashes snd mouth but a more obvious exposed spine design for her neck. She is once again backed by a full moon and flanked in fog.

A traditional pencil pic from Drawlloween 2015. We see Polly looking a little vulnerable. She's in her Death robes, backed by a full moon and flanked by mist but she looks a little tired. She's pulled her hood off. In doing so, we see her skull head and spine along with her bony arm as the cloth from the robe's sleeve falls and reveals her forearm.

Biff the Vampire No.545: The Touch. A tired Polly stops in at D O A - Dine on Arrival, a Zombie owned diner, after a long shift. She sits at the bar while Len takes care of her. "So... It's Polly, right?", says Len as he sets down Polly's root beer. "Yes.", she says in a soft voice. "Nice name.", Len continues, "Is it short for something?". "Pollyanna...", she replies in the almost whisper soft voice. "Cool. I'm Len--" Before he could finish, Polly interrupted him. As if on autopilot, she said "Leonard Fisher. Died last year. Slipped while jogging and fell. You were impaled on a broken tree limb." Len shot up as something in him clicked and a change came over his eyes. "Woah!", he said loudly. "I'm sorry!", Polly apologized, "I didn't mean to...". Len snapped back to normal. "NO! No.", he said, "It's okay! It's cool...". Flustered, Polly continued "I'm sorry. I saw it when we touched.". "NEAT!", Len said with a smile. "Neat?" said Polly, confused by Len's reaction. Len, still riding the high of whatever came over him, happily replied "YEAH!".

Had an idea for "Thing" based on a joke I read & it Kinda' got out of hand... #Artwork #Traditional #Pencil #Sketch #FurryArt #Mouse

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· Jun 15

Kinda' sorta'? I'll write dialog and maybe some basic directions first to get everything I can down on paper. Basically, I just put the story down. Then I'll put little tick marks by the names/SFX to chunk out panels. This was scrapped from the end of a story bit but it's how I write my strips.

Photo of a scrapped script from the comic 'Biff the Vampire'. The hand written page shows the exceptionally thin layout I use when writting scripts I will eventually draw. We see both text and dialog from characters as well as tick marks chunking out possible panels.

After Far too long, I finally got around to washing this ol' bear &... Oh. o.O

Photo of an old plush toy fresh from the dryer. It's a white bear with oddly human proportions holding onto the gimmick it came with. It's an Easter toy and the little bear came in a purple zip front bunny suit - like a bunny Kigurumi but from a good ten years before that was a big thing as its tag has a 1999 copyright date. The technically naked bear is propped up to look like it's holding his clothes in one hand while looking deep into the camera.

Artist! Quote with your Fanart!

Digital color pic from February of 2012. It's fanart of DJ P0N-3 (or Vinyl Scratch), a background character from the 2010 cartoon "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic". The slightly off-white cartoony Unicorn sports a two tone blue/sky blue mane and tail and black glasses with purple lenses. They are sitting fairly cat-like on a large neon blue circle with their left "arm" as they are surrounded by floating neon colored records suspended by the magic emanating from their horn. The almost black navy blue background has a repeating dark purple square pattern reminiscent of a blacklight poster. P0N-3 is framed slightly glowing musical note - a stand in for her "Cutie Mark" or the image found on the flanks of almost all My Little Pony characters.

Post a cat! 🐈

Like... I'm actually passable in SRL. Looking up my old times on Destiny Tracker, I'm like 4:30 & under on the D1 tracks. These may be my best runs but I try more for consistency than "World Records". I am, w/out a doubt, back to having no idea where things are anymore & I kinda' love it. = )

Screenshot from my phone of the website 'Destiny Tracker'. Shown are times from the various Sparrow Racing League tracks and my fastest runs. It reads, "Campus Martinus - 4:31.394, Infinite Decent - 4:18.324, Haakon Precipice - 4:25.572, Shining Sands - 4:33.291".

Artist! Quote with your fanart!

Traditional color pencil pic from Way back in 2013. The image is of my take on the classic Disney design for Tinkerbell - the loveable fairy with attitude from 'Peter Pan'. She's surrounded by a stream of tiny Kirby Dots of "Fairy Dust". She's holding on to a dandelion that's in full fluffy seed ball mode. It's massive in size compared to the tiny fae but she carries it well. The flower stem, Tink's leaf green outfit, blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin are standard color pencils. Her wings are colored with a heavy dose of Non-Photo Blue.

Wasn't sure which I liked better so I ran two sets. I like the hoodie look w/ the arm blades but it's dark. The vest works a little better. Might split the difference & run it w/ the other arms & the lighter legs. Finally found gear that old shader works well on. Details are in the Alt Text. = )

Screenshot of my Hunter from Destiny 2. The hooded cat-faced character is sporting the black, grey, white and purple of the Ace Pride flag. Head: Cat-Eye Mask with Dead Oribit Resurrection shader, Arms: Vigilant Seraph Grips with Technofusion shader, Body: Holdfast Vest with Indivisible shader, Legs: Bushido Strides with First Light shader, Cloak: Aspiring Challenger Cloak with Worn Interference shader.

Why get an expensive flat screen & a whole surround sound system & some sketchy audio service? I got the Perfect solution for those in need of a one-stop shop entertainment center right here. = )

Photo of a massive 1949 Zenith Porthole combo unit. This beast of a piece of equipment has a perfectly circular TV set flanked on either side by a flip down turntable and a flip out AM/FM(?)/World radio. All this in a love wooden cabinet. The one in the photo needs a cleaning and, from the stuff both on top of and around it, looks like it's being worked on.

Deep cut... = )

Title card for Star Trek: The Next Generation. The Enterprise flies by a planet. Text reads, "The Secret of the Box".

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· May 23

We have fun here. = )

Title card for Star Trek: Voyager. It's a shot of the underside of the ship. In an orange to yellow faded font, text reads "A Visit from the Kids".

Title card for Star Trek: the Animated Series. Yellow text over a random planet reads, "Furries! In! SPAAAAACE!".

You know what time it is. = ) It's time for the first 3rd Thursday Street Fest of the year! If you're in the Willimantic, CT area, drop by from 6pm to 9pm & Buy Some Stuff! >.<

Photo of the familiar purple and white striped tent of 'Homemade by Ma'. On the tables are an assortment of crocheted items. Still setting things up is Ma.

Progress was... made? o.O

Photo of a small sketchpad. On it is a quickie pencil sketch for the cover character for Biff the Vampire Volume 7. The character is the guy who works at the movie theater. The very simplistic looking guy has goggle eyes and a super simple hairstyle. They sport a shirt, jeans and a jacket. They're standing with their hands in their pockets. They're firing a look at the viewer. Notes next to them read: "Fix head size. Add hat? Figure out colors. Figure out a Damn Title!".

Erik 'Picto-Fictionist' Amill@propheteka· May 10

And here's the finished product during the most amount of Daylight I could manage on this kinda' cloudy day! = D
