An illustration depicting the current frontman of the band Ghost, Papa Perpetua, and Cara, Vierbero's OC, at a dressing room after their wedding.
Perpetua is sitting down while Cara holds him from behind, one can see them from the back and their front reflected in a mirror of a gothic dressing room black table. They are both wearing black, with Perpetua having a long purple cloak, and chatting. On the table, there are a few make-up sets and Cara's wedding bouquet. Adorning the mirror, there are cupids made of ghouls and on the top of the mirror, there are two tiny ghouls, competing for a piece of toblerone, while their tails form a little heart.

Four samples of half-body illustrations done by me
On the top left corner, it's an illustration of two original characters of mine, Mick and Angie. They are, well, dead, playing in a rock band in the afterlife. Mick is wearing heavy Halloween make-up resembling a skeleton while playing the bass, while Angie is singing and holding him from behind. The background is simple, with the lyrics to "I put a spell on you".
On the top right corner, it's an illustration of two original characters of mine, Mihai and Kathleen. They are vampire hunters, Mentor and Apprentice, casually leaning on their swords during a rare calm afternoon, side by side. Mihai has tanner skin and brown, slightly long, braided hair, wearing mostly light colored simple clothes, while Kathleen has very pale blond hair and skin, with dark make-up around her eyes, while wearing mostly dark, simple but embellished clothes. They are both covered in healed scars. The background is a simple sky with bushes/trees behind them.
On the bottom left corner, it's an illustration of the original character Ophelia Pendragon by cyanorat. She is a sorcerer, Queen of Avalon, wearing an opal dress with long sleeves, a detailed necklace and a crown. She has dark skin and deep blue eyes, like the water magic she wields and like the night sky behind her.
On the top right corner, there are two original characters of mine, Alastor and Nyx. They are from a cyberpunk style story. Alastor has purple, shoulder length hair and golden eyes, wearing mostly red leather clothes. Nyx has pool blue short hair with a chrome plaque on the left side of her head and purple eyes, wearing mostly black leather clothes and having the left side of her body covered in burn scars. She also has a tattoo across her belly written "Huntress". The background is simple, with words and stains as if it's graffiti, written things like "No Gods".

Artist! Quote with your fanart! (resharing a few of my works, since I'm still trying to get back to drawing/posting consistently 😅) #artsky #arttrain

A digital realistic painting of Leon Kennedy from the most recent Resident Evil game, Requiem.
It's heavily focused on his face and you can see him from shoulders up. The background is a simple black/gray/pale almost white green with some specks of the same green color and dark red. You can also see his name in the background, "Leon", written in a font similar from the game and heavily blurred.
It's based on a print from a game scene, specifically the one he says he needs to investigate the Orphanage (I'm trying to avoid spoilers here, but if you played/watched it, you know what I'm talking about).

Artist! Quote with your blood art! (I'm a little late for this one, but I'm slowly getting back to posting here - wanted to share my Carrie around again 🖤) #artsky #arttrain

A bust illustration based on the 70s horror movie, Carrie.

It depicts Carrie (as portrayed by Sissy Spacek) - a girl with wide blue eyes and long blond hair - looking scared and shocked, with tears streaming down her face and her two hands almost on the way to cover her eyes. She is covered in blood, especially on her hands. The illustration has reflexes from the light, suggesting it's the reflection she's seeing on a mirror - implying her scared and shocked look is towards seeing herself. Above her head, there's a phrase, written in yellow almost as if it was drawn on a mirror with paint or with fingers clearing mirror fog - it says "You'll always be their Carrie".
The background is slightly dark blue and dark wine red.

Artist! Quote with your blue art!💙 (it is, technically, blue 😅👍) #artsky #arttrain

A half body illustration of the character Loki from the Marvel universe, but in his frost giant (Jotun) form.
He has a few braids on a shoulder length hair, with his classic horned helmet being more of a headband. He wears a large fur cape around his shoulders, as well as a large neck/chest piece with a knotwork pattern - the same pattern is repeated on his staff. He has a few marks on his face and chest, the ones he would have as a frost giant. He is also wearing gold and black pants, as well as golden bracers with fur. The background is dark blue on top and light blue below, as if it's snowing.
His looks is very much inspired by his Marvel Rivals design, but I wanted to work on a more Norse God looking version of it - still as if it was one of his skins in game. That's why I chose the braided hair, lots of fur and detailed knotwork on the golden patches. The fur is also more on the gray side, as a little nod to Fenrir and a sort of "wolf in sheep's clothing" kind of thing.

It's been a while, but I've been thinking of working on some studies again to get back to drawing. So... A mermaid sketch for #mermay to begin 🌊 Based on the photo ref by @trueref.bsky.social for the #TrueRefDT013 😉 #artsky #mermaid #sketch #study

A sketch of a mermaid sitting on a rock, playing with her hair and looking up to the sky. It's colored in shades of golden yellow, faint pink and purple-ish blue - the yellow being the light and the blue being the shadow.

Quote your art with glasses on! 😎 (I will always take the opportunity to share this one around again 😅) #artsky #arttrain

A digital realistic painting of Zeno from the most recent Resident Evil game, Requiem.
It's heavily focused on his face and you can see him from shoulders up. The background is a simple black/gray/pale almost white blue and very faint orange/yellow accents. You can also see his name in the background, "Zeno", written in a font similar from the game and heavily blurred.
It's based on a print from a game scene, specifically the one he explains some things to Grace and says "Correct" while smiling after she asks something (I'm trying to avoid spoilers here, but if you played/watched it, you know what I'm talking about).

An illustration of a concept art sheet for my original dark fantasy character, a Vampiric Lord called István Ardelean. It shows clothing options and his swords, mixing sketches and fully rendered references. On the left, there are two rows with four different sketches of clothing options for him - the first two being more casual looking and the last two being a little more formal, with long coats/capes. On the right, there are two final, fully rendered options of clothes for him, being the same one except the second option has a large red cape over it. In the middle there are two options of swords, one smaller and more embellished with silver and gold, and one longer and simpler. The sheet also features the color swatches I used and his name for reference. He is a tall an lean pale man, with long wavy black hair, wearing mostly black and silver clothes with some dark red accents - except for the cape, which is blood red.

A collage of two illustrations from original dark fantasy characters of mine, a vampire hunter and a vampire lord.
On the left, a half-body illustration of my oc, Kathleen Rose, a vampire hunter.
She is walking under the moonlight, with the moon and dark forest behind her, while holding her sword and drenched in blood. She is pale and has pale blond hair down to her waist, flowing in the wind, while her eyes are green framed by an almost warpaint like black shiny makeup, smudged carelessly around her eyes.
She wears only black clothes: a leather vest up to her neck with sharp shoulders, a pair of leather pants, linen shirt and gloves. She wears a few brown belts, as well as brown leather braces.
On the right, a half-body illustration of my oc, a Vampiric Lord called István.
He is casually standing with one of his hands close to his lips, while the other holds a sword.
He is tall, strong but skinny, and very pale, with dark black wavy hair down to his waist. His eyes are surrounded by darker black/wine colors, while the irises glow in red. His lips are of the same dark wine color. His forearms are black, with black veins going up his arms almost to his shoulders, and you can also see the same black veins going up his torso from his lower waist. His hands are actually sharp, skinny and long claws, not human. He is wearing black leather pants that almost look like armor and black leather embellished belt, with silver and red gems details. Behind him, you can barely see the shape of black, bat looking big wings. He is also covered in blood, that looks more like watercolor, splattered on his lips, hands and chest, running down his whole body.

Still on the "going over my sketchbook stuff", an old Astarion I did from memory in my doctor's waiting room I really like how his profile looks, almost like a wolf in a sense. Amazing work from the art team! (Lowkey how I imagined Geralt while reading the books 👍🏻) #sketch #astarion #bg3

I'm going over my sketchbooks and found the 1st ever iteration of Lady DeeMonique (drag queen talkshow/news host from my cyberpunk universe) ✨ I'll be posting other interesting sketchbook stuff as I find it 😉 #sketch #ocsky #artsky #cyberpunk #scifi #art #oc #sketchbook

A photo from my sketchbook with the 1st sketch showing overall concept, body proportions, face and mannerisms of my original character, a drag queen talk show host, Lady DeeMonique. She is walking with a cigarette holder in one hand and looking very sassy with cyberpunk 20s style clothes. She also has a broken halo around her head and dramatic makeup.

A full illustration of my original character, a drag queen talk show host called Lady DeeMonique. Her concept is based on 20s era makeup and clothes but make it cyberpunk - neon colors, holographic vinyls and augumentations. Her color palette is mostly black, white, neon green and neon purple. Behind her, it's the name of her show "Midnight Tea with Lady Dee"

I'm having a chaotic week, so another WIP it is 👍 I'm on the mood of char sheets and realized I still hadn't worked on István's concept 🫠 Overall, vampire lord with a warlord/knight past who took his aristocrat title instead of being born in it (more info on alt text!) #wip #sketch #ocsky #artsky

(more of his lore on the last paragraph)
A screenshot of my workplace on the drawing/painting software Krita.
On the right, you can see the color wheel, brushes and layers.
On the left, you can see the working canvas, the background being a pale, de-saturated red.
It's a concept art sheet for my original dark fantasy character, a Vampiric Lord called István.
On the far left of the canvas, there are 4 sketches of the same character - a tall, lean built, pale man with dark wavy hair to his waist - on the same pose and wearing different clothes. The first two at the top are more "casual" clothes, while the last two at the bottom are more "formal". On the first two, he's wearing a combination of ruffled shirts, leather pants and knee high riding boots - one of the shirts is more fancy and ruffled than the other. The "formal" ones are different options of capes/long coats.
On the right side of the canvas in full size, there are two options: one is basically the casual clothes but with an embellished "long tail" coat with dark red accents on it, and the other is the same attire but with a long cape over it all.
In the middle, there are two options of swords: one a little shorter and more embellished, while the other is longer and somewhat simpler (I call it a zweihänder, since it's the one I based it from).

István is a Vampiric Lord who wasn't born in aristocracy - he was a knight who had to save his people from certain doom and, for that, he became a vampire and had to kill a king and take his throne. Given that history, I tried to incorporate a little more practicality in his design with still some aristocracy vibes. The smaller sword was the king sword he took and uses as a war trophy of sorts, while the zweihänder is his original knight sword and the one he prefers for fighting. He is a lot less pompous than other Vampiric Lords, using the aristocrat looks as more of an intimidation tactic rather than for showing off.

It's classic birthday post time 👀 I'm not one to celebrate or talk about it but hey, it's my birthday! So here's the classic post sharing my art around 😅 Also, thank you everyone! I don't really know how to be too ~social~ but I'm very thankful for the kindness you guys have shown me 🖤 #artsky

A collage of two illustrations of mine.
On the left, an illustration of the characters Dante and Vergil from the game series Devil May Cry.
Vergil is on the left, with his back to his brother and seen from the side, holding a sword that is resting on his shoulder. Dante is on the right, seen from the front and with his back to his brother, having his arms crossed while holding a katana on one of his hands. The great sword on Vergil's shoulder is Dante's sword Rebellion, while the katana on Dante's hand is Vergil's sword Yamato.
They are wearing their usual clothes except their long coats - Vergil with his vest, Dante with his 3/4 sleeve shirt.
The lighting is very dramatic, being purple, with bright red coming from the right and pale blue coming from the left (it looks like a neon rave party, honestly). There's also some faint words written above their head, very difficult to read: "black night, dark sky, the devils cry". It's part of the lyrics to the theme from the game Devil May Cry 3 (I added because I really like it).

Thanks for hosting! I'll add a link to my comm info since it's a linkshare 😉 tinyurl.com/2um4e4fs Aaaaand some of my recent studies 'cause I'm pretty happy with them and wanna share around 🤣🤣 (yes, I'm forever stuck on that last one, the hubris of thinking I could tackle such a big project 🥲👍)

A screenshot of my canvas on the drawing software Krita.
On the left, there's a picture of the character Vergil, from the game Devil May Cry 5, taken by Drusoona. It's from his shoulder up and he's looking down.
On the right, it's a realistic painting version of that picture, that turns messy on the neck and with an unfinished look on his shoulders, focusing only on his face and hair. I worked on it to practice a different style of rendering, without lines and relying only on light/shadow to give it shape.

A print from my workspace in the drawing/painting software Krita.
On the right, you can see the color palette, brushes and layers.
On the left you can see the working canvas.
You can see the character from waist up - Dante, from the Devil May Cry game series. On the canvas, so far, there's a rough painting of everything but his guns and hands. You can also see very lightly the sketch over which I'm working on to paint the whole illustration. Right next to him you can see the color swatches I'm using so I won't lose them, mostly the ones for his skin, hair, lips, black clothes, and two swatches of different reds.
He is on a sort of Flamenco pose, holding his guns and looking to the side with his coat dramatically flowing behind him, while the background so far is gray to help me with painting.

Polaris Croquis | Commissions Open!@kapolaris· Mar 31

Thank you for the #artshare ! I'll leave my two most recent studies 'cause I'm currently lost in RE Requiem sauce 🤣🤣 and a few of my OCs to balance 😉 I'm Polaris, always working on some OC stuff (cyberpunk/dark fantasy/music themed) or some fanarts ✨ (also got comms open: tinyurl.com/2um4e4fs )

A half-body illustration of two original cyberpunk style characters of mine, Alastor and Nyx.
Alastor is standing behind Nyx, on the left. He is taller and is holding a silver gun, while wearing red clothes (pants and jacket) and a dark blue shirt written "burn it down" in red, as well as leather, spiked gloves. He has a barcode tattoo on his right forearm. His hair is on his shoulders, bright purple, while his eyes are golden.
Nyx is standing in front of him, on the right. She is smaller and paler, with the left side of her body covered in burn scars (from her face down to her waist and her whole arm), also having a prosthesis on her left hand. She is wearing a black turtleneck, sleeveless cropped top with pool blue neon details and black pants, as well as leather gloves. She has two katanas strapped to her back and carries a gun on her left hand, while reaching for the sword with the other. She has a tattoo written "Huntress" on her belly, and has pool blue short hair and bright purple eyes. On the left side of her head, she has a chrome plaque instead of hair.
The background is a simple black and neon one, with things written as graffiti along the lines of "no gods".

Artist! Show how you draw black skin! (I just wanted an excuse to share my man Zeus again 🥲)

A half body illustration I worked on as an attack for Art Fight, on Cyanorat's original character, Ophelia Pendragon. She is a witch queen of Avalon, wearing a light iridescent dress that contrasts with her deep, dark skin. She is wielding water, her magical element, while the background is deep blue with many shimmering stars.

Polaris Croquis | Commissions Open!@kapolaris· Mar 29

so, my mom was the one who taught me to draw, and her medium is usually traditional paints (oil, watercolor...) she looked at this and "his hair is going to be the worst part, getting the short look is tough". Me, dissolving, 5h later: (it was, indeed, worse than the rest) #wip #art #re9 #zeno

A screenshot of my workplace in the drawing/painting software Krita.
On the right, you can see the color wheel, brushes and layers.
On the left, you can see the working canvas. It's a work in progress of a painting of the character Zeno, from the latest Resident Evil game, Requiem. He's seen shoulder up, with more focus on his face. So far, there's his full head done (hair, face, sunglasses, t-virus over his left side). You can also see a very faint sketch of him, with lowered opacity, while the background is gray. On the right next to him, there's a little palette with the colors I've used so far, and underneath, on bottom right, there's a reference screenshot of him in-game (precisely, the scene where he's saying "Correct" to Grace - I'm avoiding spoilers).
There's also a big signature of mine over the left side of his face and I noted down the name of a song I was hearing while drawing because I want to remember to use it somewhere else (the song is Petals, by the band Hole).

A half-body illustration of my original dark fantasy character, Kathleen Rose, a vampire hunter.
She is walking under the moonlight, with the moon and dark forest behind her, while holding her sword and drenched in blood. She is pale and has pale blond hair down to her waist, flowing in the wind, while her eyes are green framed by an almost warpaint like black shiny makeup, smudged carelessly around her eyes.
She wears only black clothes: a leather vest up to her neck with sharp shoulders, a pair of leather pants, linen shirt and gloves. She wears a few brown belts to hold purses and weapons, as well as brown leather braces. On her shirt, there's a detail in light blue and lilac on the arms, and she wears her sword belt, made of silver squares embellished with roses, strapped around her torso/chest. She also has a few silver spikes on her clothes: on the vest around her neck and on her braces, which extends to her hands - being quite useful for punching her enemies and causing a little more damage.
The majority of the blood is on her hand/forearm holding her sword and close to her chest, as well as a few stripes going down her face almost like tears.

Hey artists! QRP with your sketch vs final! #arttrain #artsky

A sketch of Leon Kennedy from the latest Resident Evil game, Requiem - seen shoulder's up, with focus on his face.

Polaris Croquis | Commissions Open!@kapolaris· Mar 26

As I did before once, I'll leave this as a sort of resource (?) post - if anyone has a hard time with palettes/picking colors (like me), feel free to use the ones I did on this painting 😉 #wip #sketch #artsky #arttips #artresources #palettes #leon #residentevil #re9 (yes I suck at tags here 👍)

A screenshot of my workspace on the drawing/painting software Krita.
On the right, you can see the color wheel, brushes and layers.
On the left, you can see the working canvas. There's a painting of the character Leon Kennedy from the recent Resident Evil, Requiem, seen from shoulders up with focus on his face. The painting is finished with a simple gray background - it's the only thing that needs to be added.
Next to him on the left, there are 5 sets of color swatches/palettes that I used to work on his painting. The palettes are, from top to bottom: skin, lips, hair, eyes and clothes.
I did get his eyes a bit wrong on the overall color scheme. I pushed too much for blue, but in hindsight I should've worked with a more grayish teal or even grayish pale green, almost like the ones in his clothes. Still, the colors do work.

Polaris Croquis | Commissions Open!@kapolaris· Mar 24

Just a liiiiiittle more and we're done 🖤 (yours truly being the insane type that draws every single strand of hair 'cause I don't have specific brushes and work with only 3: hard brush, soft brush and pencil brush 🙃) #wip #sketch #artsky #leon #residentevil #requiem #re9

A screenshot of my workplace in the drawing/painting software Krita.

On the left, you can see the working canvas. On the bottom left of the canvas, there's a screenshot of Leon Kennedy on Resident Evil Requiem (for those wondering, it's when he says he's gonna investigate the Orphanage). In the middle of the canvas, there's a faint sketch of Leon, shoulders up with focus on his face, while so far everything is colored except for his shirt. All over the canvas, there are a few of the color swatches I used, mostly a color palette so I won't have to keep searching for them in case I need those colors again.

Thank you for the share 🖤 I'm Polaris, usually working on my own dark fantasy/cyberpunk/music themed ocs and some fanarts 😉 (I'm also leaving a current WIP, powering through lineless painting 😅)

A bust illustration of my original dark fantasy character, a vampire lord called István.
He is tall and pale, with pale blue eyes and long, dark wavy hair. His lips are dark red and are stained with blood. He is wearing black, simple clothes and a long, wide red cape, with sharp shoulders. He is leaning on his sword in front of him, but still carrying a regal posture.
On the background, there's a forest during twilight, with orange fading to dark purple.

A portrait with the character Rogue, from the game Cyberpunk 2077. She can be seen from shoulder up, with a simple green background and a see-through writing in red on the upper left corner saying "Queen of the Afterlife".

Congrats on 700!! That's awesome! You deserve that and a whole lot more, your art is gorgeous 🖤🎉🎉 And thanks for the tag ^^ I'm Polaris, working on my dark fantasy/cyberpunk/music themed ocs and fanarts of things I like ✨ Also got comms open, details on the link below 😉 bsky.app/profile/kapo...

An illustration of the characters Dante and Vergil from the game series Devil May Cry.
Vergil is on the left, with his back to his brother and seen from the side, holding a sword that is resting on his shoulder. Dante is on the right, seen from the front and with his back to his brother, having his arms crossed while holding a katana on one of his hands. The great sword on Vergil's shoulder is Dante's sword Rebellion, while the katana on Dante's hand is Vergil's sword Yamato.
They are wearing their usual clothes except their long coats - Vergil with his vest, Dante with his 3/4 sleeve shirt.
The lighting is very dramatic, being purple, with bright red coming from the right and pale blue coming from the left (it looks like a neon rave party, honestly). There are some debris of the same color on the foreground around them, while the background is reminiscent of the game's concepts of Hell - being very dark and only with a few glowing things here and there, quite abstract. There's also some faint words written above their head, very difficult to read: "black night, dark sky, the devils cry". It's part of the lyrics to the theme from the game Devil May Cry 3 (I added because I really like it).

A print from my workspace in the drawing/painting software Krita - with a WIP of something I'm currently working on.
On the right, you can see the color palette, brushes and layers.
On the left you can see the working canvas.
It's a closeup on the face of the character - Dante, from the Devil May Cry game series. On the canvas, so far, there's the painting of his face, hair and you can see a little of his arms and hands. You can also see very lightly the sketch over which I'm working on to paint the whole illustration. And a lot of the colors I've been using, as a sort of color swatches so I won't loose them around.
