Queer Hungarian artist and writer based in Aotearoa. I enjoy drawing queer people, TTRPG characters and fun backgrounds /// Trans gal, She/Her, Dragon therian /// Alt for non art stuff: briebo-is-a-dragon
Hi there! I'm Brie, a transfem artist and writer living in Aotearoa, and I like drawing anything related to my TTRPG characters, trans people, sci-fi, and fantasy stuff <3
Here are some examples!
my old online name was "BenjiBo", which i don't go by anymore, but, any art before the beginning of 2023 will have that as a signature as a heads up :)
The main tag I use for all my art is "#bri art", which should include only singular posts and none of the reblogs I use for bumping.
i use tags for posts with my ocs, but I'll keep all that info below the cut.
all my art now has tags for if a recurring character of mine pops up in case anyone wants to look through and find all the things ive done with em, so ive got a little directory here that ill use for keeping up with that

Maxine (She/Her) | tag "bri oc: maxine"
my original blorbo and first trans OC (if im not counting that one time i went feral over a headcanon with my elden ring character), she's gone through a bunch of name changes, which looked like Bridgette -> Brianne -> Maxine, so that's why my old art refers to her by a different name
currently planning a novella/short novel with her as the main character! chipping away at it in my free time :)
---
Anya (She/Her) | tag "bri oc: anya"
another transfem oc, and my first proper pathfinder character. I wrote a whole short story about her realizing she's trans that you can find somewhere on my profile or here (It was the first story I've ever managed to finish, and that shows I think, I can write a lot better now but it's still a cute little thing) her hair changes colors with her emotions because i think its a fun thing to draw

Belladonna, or Bel for short (She/They) | tag "bri oc: bel"
my tiefling ttrpg character, and, surprise! also trans. paired up with a friends OC, so there's a few quicker doodles i've done with them being gay. they're my high-femme OC who i put in all the outifts i'd like to wear, and one of my most favourite characters to draw. her tail emotes like a cats :)

that's all i have for now but i'll update this as i design and draw new characters, cheers
I wrote a short piece of flash fiction based on a tumblr post that kind of made me feral, and some people I know encouraged me to make a cover for it and slap it on Scribblehub despite it's length.
So, I did! You can read that here if you'd like.
As for the cover, I slapped together something simple really quickly last night. Here's what that looks like:
oops! it has been a while. i wont ramble at length about it (at least not up here), but i've been working at remaking my art style from scratch
so
uh
dragon sona time :)
it me! (more literally if you get me Θ∆)
it isn't a lot atm, but its enough that i wanted to post something so here!
ill keep further ramblings below a cut lol, but yes hi yes im figuring out how to draw again and im actually enjoying it for the first time in a while ^.=.^
but yeah lmao, i kind of hard fell out of love with my art style due to it being a Lot of Effort for what was ultimately... flat (at least to me), so i kind of didnt have the energy to continue doing it, especially when i couldnt get the results i wanted.
so! this is where im experimenting with now, kind of trying to hard mimic traditional without caring for keeping it "clean". that means for me keeping my sketches as my lines, and not using masks for my colors so they bleed through underneath, all that
but yes, that's all! should hopefully be able to find the time to draw a bit more often now that it doesnt quite feel like a soul-wrenching chore <3
i am working on multiple things simultaneously, so have this little design i finished up first :3
meet Erohkat! the devil mother (and one of three parents - it's complicated) of my Pathfinder tiefling character. i wanted to do a quick little concept design before she was slated to appear in the campaign!! it was practically my first time properly drawing snouts and fur, so it was a fun design challenge <3
if you'd like to see the tiefling she's a parent of, just click here! the family resemblance was very fun to depict >:)
because tumblr literally wont allow me to post the timelapse despite having to write this whole thing out ✨four times✨the only thing that will be below the cut is a bonus doodle of her <3
the doodle- i couldn't get the image of her having two-tiered glasses out of my head so i drew it! trying my hardest to let myself be sloppy.
managed to break through the art block for my first drawing of 2024, my trans tiefling oc Belladonna in a pretty outfit. coincidentally, she was also my first drawing of 2023! they are one of the only things my brain lets me put to digital canvas, but i'm not fully complaining <3
it's always quite affirming to draw pretty trans women who have broad shoulders, narrow hips and sharp jawlines. as someone with those features, giving those to my ocs is always very fun!
as always, timelapse is under the cut, warning for flashing lights due to how the speed works.
had a good brain day today so here, have Belladonna, my transfem tiefling oc, with her lipstick a little smeared cus she was kissing girls :3c
was gonna do an additional little doodle of the gal she was kissing, but, alas, at the moment my art energy has all run dry. regardless! happy with this piece.
timelapse under the cut, cw for flashing lights due to the speed of the video and me hiding and unhiding layers!
the dragonborn models from Baldur's Gate 3 have got my oc brain churning... this isn't my current player character (im currently playing a gold dragonborn bard which has been a blast), but the one im planning on playing in my next playthrough, a white dragonborn rogue!
never drawn scales or a snout before so this was an enjoyable challenge. im hoping that by becoming obsessed with my Tav's I'll be able to learn quickly :)
additional sketch with an expression to go along with it and timelapse under the cut~
O, imagesmith, tell us of your ways, so we may aspire to such wonderful creations. (13 and 17 pls, love your work!)
haha thank you so much!! these are good ones,
13. how long do you usually take on a piece
gosh, it really varies, im a slow poke when it comes to art even at the best of times. for a full illustration with a background and a character? 8-10 hours, typically, i'd think, though i typically stretch that out over 2-3 days. its the main reason i dont get much art done during study time, because i know id sink into focus mode and lose that much time lmao
17. what do you love getting compliments about
oh boy. this one is revealing lolol, but i think i like it the most when people find my characters hot tbh, a little bit narcissistic of me (on behalf of them) but its like warm soup for my soul. feels like my character designs are working as intended :)
For the art ask thing: 2.What's your favorite thing about your style? 10.How many different sketches do you usually have until your piece is finished?
oh! very good questions, thank you!~
2. im quite proud of my volumes tbh! i love making things feel 3 dimensional and when it clicks in my brain it's so satisfying to me
10. oh! this one is fun, i typically shift between 2-3, though my final sketch is basically lineart like... a very very rough sketch, barely circles and squares to get the forms down, then i refine the anatomy, then i basically add facial features and clothing on top!
thats all, thank you very much for the question! <3
another commission down! Max (and Penny, on her neck), the main characters of Penumbra, a story by @elamimax! One of the best novels I've read on Scribblehub, I highly recommend it (And Ela's other works) if anyone is looking for trans fiction <3
if you'd like something like this, check out my commission info! only got a week left of them being open!
timelapse under the cut, as always tw for flashing lights due to the way that the timelapse speeds stuff up.
