in dark times, should the stars also go out?

Hi there! I'm Cyan, a 32yo artist from the US. Self-taught hobbyist, Updates irregular, whenever I remember to!

[astroanthesis]

there needs to be more cassandra art out there. i'm doing my part. even if it took a year and that means everything is inconsistent LOL

i've also done tugger and mistoffelees like this, sorta study/redraws with some liberties taken

[astroanthesis]

did another faceup on one of the cloned dolls of my sister's, wanted to try and play around the mold a bit and cover up discrepancies in the root job. ended up being super frustrating, but i'm still pretty happy with her!!!

[astroanthesis]

painted my gf @thewordywarlock's oc Vanity for her birthday!!!

[astroanthesis]

did a mockup of my retro anime alien twyla repaint i've been rolling around in my head awhile

[astroanthesis]

did my very first doll repaint on one of my sister's cheap knockoff barbies! decided to follow/work with the mold closely with this one, as i was still getting used to the materials and working so small. i also added gold paint when mixing the lower iris color so its got a liiiittle gold shimmer!

before and after via one of the other identically faced dolls that she came in a set with below the cut!

yeah her skin got a tinge darker, i think i ended up smudging the pigment around and used a LOT of layers of sealant, but its not like it matched her body to begin with, only got more drastic, so i threw her in astronaut coveralls lmao

hi Cats fans i saw a meme months ago and thought of bustopher, saw someone else make the connection, but i don't think anyone got around to redrawing it so i gave it a shot

original under the cut

secret santa for @myriad-lights, of their commander tamaren o7

[astroanthesis]

everyone's got their cool and varied art vs artist for 2024 and mine was just

two Cats and my girlfriend's fursona(s, kobold not pictured)

[astroanthesis]

second cats fanart, i never wanna draw his mane again. but as it stands i probably will. (at least i figured out his color palette by the second one)

anyway, like the mistofelees one, grabbed a couple shots off the wiki to do as sort-of studies, sort of redraws, to get a feel for how i wanna draw him.

[astroanthesis]

finished up all three forms of my gf @thewordywarlock's fursona, she couldn't decide on a single animal so she went 'well how about a shapeshifter' and thusly i did my best to pull it together o7

was a learning adventure actually. not used to shorter proportions or defined curls. diversifying is good though, i'll never pass up a chance to try something i'm not used to!

[astroanthesis]

whoops first cats fanart. got into it with a covid-addled brain and it has continued to have an obscene hold on me.

picked a couple pics of the little magic guy from the wiki to do redraws? studies? doodles of, and in experimenting with clip studio stuff(screentones and a vintage print auto-action) i hadn't used before, i ended up making it look nicer than intended so i'm posting it

[amnyatas]

anyway i saw these memes and drew them with athena and vashildr

fun excuse to draw both boobs and athena's big lynx paws

original memes under the cut if u want

[amnyatas]

oh my god it's so hard to finish anything with kids around all day and a ruined sleep schedule, i'm so sorry it took so long!

anyway, July 2023 NA art party headshots!

[amnyatas]

i think i like, legally had to, do necromancy barbie and tyrian ken

wonder what they were arrested for

[amnyatas]

so funny story. i had a dual art prompt in my inbox and i thought i got the first half done, and then i started working on the second before i started having second thoughts about it and stressing about it. i went to post at least the first one, and realized…I MIXED UP THE CHARACTERS AND PROMPTS.

so till i redo them, have wisteria in a flower crown bc i still did it

[astroanthesis]

second birthday gift, a fursona ref!
