Weekend Sketches #5 - Nyx's Moving Castle

3/27/2021

0 Comments

 
Nyx dressed as Howl from the Ghibili version of Howl’s Moving Castle, with the blouse, large coat, and tight pants. She is sitting with her hands clasped in her lap and her legs crossed.
Nyx facing right, still dressed as Howl, from Ghibli’s Howl’s Moving Castle, seeming to float magically with her large coat trailing behind her. In her outstretched hands is a small heart with flames around it.
Two sketches of Sol. The smaller sketch on the left depicts her as the fire spirit Calcifer, except that her trail of flame looks like her signature ponytail. The second sketch on the right depicts Sol as Sophie, though Sol looks uncomfortable in the dress and hat combo.
Nyx facing right, still dressed as Howl, holding a little Calcifer Sol, who has a little heart in her flame body (the heart belonging to Nyx). Both are smiling at each other.
Hello everyone! Here we are with another bunch of weekend sketches!

This weekend I dug up some of the Howl's Moving Castle crossover doodles I did with my girls. I don't really have anything new or interesting to say about them here beyond Nyx looks hot in Howl's blouse and tight pants IMO. Sol could probably work as a Calcifer stand in (and looks really cute) but I also have another character from my OC story in mind who would be a better fit, also I just really like Sol as Sophie, thematically.

Truly the best thing about having OCs is drawing fun stuff like this with them.

Pillowfort had to extend its return date to late April, and honestly I think I'm ready to just settle into treating this blog as my main art posting space instead. I still think PF is one of the better social medias out there but I find myself a bit frustrated with how they're going about the relaunch, in particular giving soft dates for the platform's return before they've even started their audit. As I keep saying with every blog post so far (lol) I'll still return to PF once it's open again, but I'm really vibing with the place I've built here.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Weekend Sketches #4 - Miscellany With Sol and Nyx

3/21/2021

A black and white sketch of Nyx. She is small and cartoonish looking and is posed as if she had just been caught sneaking.
A black and white sketch of Sol and Nyx referencing that one Buzzfeed Unsolved meme where Shane and Ryan are arguing.

Sol: I’ve connected the two dots
Nyx: You didn’t connect shit.
Sol: I’ve connected them.
A black and white sketch of Sol and Nyx participating in the Pockey Challenge. From the top left, Sol teases Nyx with a Pockey stick held in her mouth and then pulls away when Nyx goes to bite it. From the bottom left Nyx strikes Sol in the gut with lightning magic and the Pockey falls from Sol’s mouth for Nyx to grab and run away with while Sol lies prone on the ground in the background.
A black and white sketch of Sol and Nyx as anthropomorphic animals. Sol is a dog and Nyx is a cat. Nyx is curled up on Sol’s lap and is taking a nap, meanwhile Sol is forced to stay sitting and seems a bit nervous about her predicament, licking her nose the same way an anxious dog would. There is a thought bubble trailing from Sol’s head that reads “ C-can’t move…”
A black and white sketch where Nyx is in a mock interview. The interviewer asks her “Excuse me miss, are you a touch starved gay or a sleep deprived gay?” Nyx leans forward and says simply “Yes.”
A black and white sketch of Sol and Nyx both squatting in repose. Sol looks bored and is glancing off to the side, while Nyx (who is sitting on Sol’s left) is glancing up at Sol.
Hello! I am back with another batch of Weekend Sketches!

I took a couple weeks off since all that business with Cryptoart was really bringing me down and I didn't want to share what I was making online since there were now creeps stealing other people's IP to mint in that pollution spewing pyramid scheme. I doubt I'm the kind of person who'd have to worry about getting my stuff stolen, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Today's bunch of sketches are just rough things in black and white. These are again old sketches from Pillowfort, which is supposed to be opening back up before this month is over. I'm very excited for that since I have been amassing a lot of extra art of my Demon Hunting Lesbians. I'll still use this blog for posting even with Pillowfort back, so for anyone who has been worried that this will be abandoned, don't. I still really like having a space on the internet that is entirely my own and who knows, PF could run into more problems and have to be put to sleep again!

That's all from me for now. I hope you all have a lovely week!

Weekend Sketches #3 - Memes and Such

3/7/2021

In the style of the Peach Time Meme, Sol draw in a very simple style with droopy eyes and a placid smile, looking to her left at text that reads “oc time.”
A joke image depicting Sol as a hulking buff square towering over a small demon with her longsword in her hand and wearing some kind of harness, then an arrow the points to a flipped version of Sol where the viewer can see her back and what is being held in the harness is a tiny Nyx in a baby bjorn, her hands raised and cracking with lightning.
A redraw of the Drake Meme using Nyx. The top image is of Nyx in the Drake rejection pose while next to her the text says: Making a familiar pact with an animal, like a sane person. The bottom image is of Nyx in the Drake acceptance pose with a little spark of lightning emitting from her finger while the text next to her says: Making a familiar pact with a human (Demi-God??).
Some black and white sketches of Sol in a sleeveless turtleneck top looking very attractive.
A couple of black and white sketches. The sketch on the left of a young Sol around the age of 10. She is holding a broomstick and there are twigs and leaves in her hair. The sketch on the right if of Sol lifting an unconscious Nyx out of a tangle of thorns with a concerned look on her face.
A black and white sketch with some colour accents of Sol with her arm protectively around Nyx, who has her face pressed into Sol’s chest, and her longsword held out defensively in front of them both. Two large golden wings stretch from Sol’s back.
Hello again for another round of Weekend Sketches~

​This weekend's subject is Memes and Melodrama with my two demon hunting lesbians! I was wondering if it would be appropriate to dump my significantly more jokey sketches of these two on this blog. These kinds of things are better suited on a more informal space like my Pillowfort (which is in still in hibernation as the whole platform undergoes maintenance. Though it will be returning come late March!). But considering this is my official space on the internet I'd might as well put what I think is fun over here. Any professionalism can be found in my other site's tabs~ (though debatable for the Misc tab haha).

I have gotten a lot of positive response to these two and people seem keen on learning more about their story. Thank you for your interest! I don't have any immediate plans to start on any formal narrative for them and am still waffling over just keeping them a personal thing I draw for fun and to talk about with close friends. But a story has been brewing and I think an illustrated novel is the best way to go about it. For now I would like to just focus on finishing Star Trip and then pivot to a smaller black and white comic I have waiting for me afterwards.

I hope you all have a lovely week!
