i just joined Pottermore, even though i haven’t read a single book nor watched past the third movie - and this place isn’t for me. I have yet to figure out what the appeal is past getting slivers of extra commentary and info from J.K.Rowling… I mostly joined just to figure out what house i was in. and i’m a slytherin apparently, so i drew myself accordingly.

The usernames are horrible, the user experience is frustrating and unintuitive, and the dueling sucks major dick. However, experiencing shitty things with friends makes them considerably less shitty, so hit me up, i’m IcePixie4041. sigh. 

come beat me up, all i can do is fling boogers at you

Hey guys! Guess what— the Pokémon Battle Royale show at Light Grey Art Lab opens this friday! Here’s my Drowzee! (who I kept on my Leaf Green team almost solely because I loved the noise he made)

Apparently Drowzee is based on the Japanese Baku spirit: a dream-devouring tapir-like creature. Spooky! Although Drowzee is a grassland pokemon, he is also sometimes found in ancient ruins and tombs. Paying homage to Drowzee’s scarier mythological counterpart in a crumbling temple seemed appropriate!

Prints will be on sale at the show! I wish I could go, There’s gonna be so much fun art from 151+ (!) amazing contributors. Check it out!

jeez louise papa cheese so good

THISSSSS is an extremely late art trade between me and the incredibly badass Dan Howard, extremely fucking late. like, how dare you darken your doorstep with your shadow kind of late.

this is his character, Bianca. she’s badass and every badass in training would do well to take some lessons from her.

check out Dan’s awesome art at

“Ayla fight while alive! Win and live. Lose and die. Rule of life. No change rule.”

i just realized that during this last art sabbatical, i had a buttload of almost-complete-to-complete drawings that were never uploaded for whatever reason. so i guess i’ll be uploading them while i get newer drawings out the door.

chrono trigger is awesome. one of my all time favorite RPGs, and i was about to type out that ayla was one of my favorite characters, but then i realized that ALL OF THE CHARACTERS ARE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. except marle, fuck dat ho

…and it saddens me to see that there really isn’t a lot of ayla art-love on the internet, except for well, yknow. wink wink kind of art-love.

so!!! my take on ayla, CHIEF OF THE IOKAS

thanks for looking!!!

CROSSPOST

well hello tumblr it’s been a while hasn’t it

i’ve been mondo busy with work, and it’s been putting quite a strain on my personal art-mojo. however, the BURNING PASSION to keep on keepin on has prevailed, if even for a moment.

i dunno who this is or what the hell this piece is about, it started as a warmup during a lunch break but turned into a full on pic before long.

thanks for looking, i totally miss you guys!

ATTENTION: ARTISTS

read this, and stop whining and stressing about how you’re just a small fish with no voice

it’s the status quo baby, my fish weiner is smaller than yours

it’s…. GARR!! the coolest character in BoF3

putting an actual timer on my speedpaints seems to work out pretty well… there’s something about the pressure and the time constraint that just doesn’t let art-insecurity blossom. i find that all of my quicker works have so much more confidence and energy than the more drawn-out, meticulously planned pieces.

guess it just shows that i just need to draw more to get my general art confidence level up blugghhghghhh

OKAY SO

this is fanart for Mr. Steve “VENTASTIC” Bryant!! he’s like this totally awesome artist guy that’s also a totally awesome person at the same time! he pimps my shit all the time and i so don’t deserve all the praise he leaves on my doorstep, so i just wanted to give him a big shout out and thanks for being such a cool dude.

THE LEGEND OF SCOTTY is his baby, and it kinda totally looks like The Shit plus infinity times infinity. here’s one of the cast members done in my style.. i’ve been so into “painterly” rendering lately, it was nice to just cut loose and be more freeflowy. applied textures, how i’ve missed you!

secondary props go to Drew Green, because i totally colored it with his neato chalk gouache brush preset thingy! it was fun as hell to use, although i don’t really know what i’m doing with it, haha

prepare for the DA CROSSPOST bitchess

dis bitch is done, yo

i kinda like how this style worked out! it was a lot of fun to make this!

just this week duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudee

i like it <3

ufotrash:

meng francisco, for David!

my girlfriend is the best girlfriend on earth

here’s a WIP of ryoga from ranma 1/2

i tweaked and merged a lot of the brushes i use most often into one single, all purpose brush… im also trying to be as “traditional” as i can, meaning no gradients, hue changes etc etc… until post-prod. i kinda like where this style exploration is going!

…and yes, i know that it looks like a gurren lagann thing. i think it’s impossible to make an anime character pointing straight up these days without getting compared to kamina, hahaha

shitty sketchy

just a sketch that i decided to doll up a bit. process shotzzzzzzzz

wtf dudes the thumbnail makes her look like a drowned corpse fullview that shit

just putzing around… probably gonna finish this up eventually
