There's a nightjar that sings in my head

When encountering unexplored areas, take the time to ensure your routing. Make sure there are unblocked entrances and exits. If you encounter a collapse or closure while inside, you may be unable to contact an outside source for help. Use your best judgement while inside the area and be alert for unexpected elements.

Oh look it's Vanya and... Vanya?

Which one's the Nightingale and which one's the Nightjar? I'll let you know when I figure it out.

Oooooh man, saw Iron Lung last night. Absolutely loved it! Mark did a great job in an acting and a production sense.

And boy oh boy. They sure did use a lot of blood for that movie.

Finished filling out my sketchbook after a lot of breaks in between. Here are some of the highlights!

Flipping through it made me realize I don't use any color unless it's digital. Should probably pick up a sturdier book next time so I can use my paints.

Some of the opening bits from Dead Reset. If you like Alien or time loops or neat practical effects, check it out. Its a CYOA adventure game but everything is live-action filmed and you make the story choices.

Fanart for Queenie ( @queenofbaws ), featuring your OTP and favorite character (yep he is in there, but you gotta find him)!! Actually learned about the exchange from your blog this year and the irony here does not escape me. I aimed for more of a vibe-based piece than a character piece,, I hope its not too far from what you like,,,, I got lost in the process somewhere and ended up with a full landscape.

Made for the Until Dawn 2025 Secret Santa Gift Exchange ( @untildawn-secretsanta )

Really tried to learn into the ambient horror of the game. Getting trapped atop a mountain where the only option you have is to venture into the snowy forest. It's impossible to leave on foot. The trees are dense. Treading through snow is exhausting. But there is something in the woods with you, and you do not know where or when it will get you, only that it wants to.

But the monsters aren't the only thing lurking in these woods! Better watch out for that strange old hunter- he certainly has his eye on you >:3

Until Dawn headshots! It's finally cold again, my goodness it's been miserably warm out here folks.

I'm so sorry about the quality of Ashley and Jack, I was at practice and I committed to drawing on a piece of red construction paper.

Art for the very lovely fanfic In The Shadows Of The Same Eclipse by ScribeofRhapsody. If you like House of Ashes and if you like time loops (and little sprinkle of The Curator), absolutely go check this out.

I spent. Perhaps a little too much time on this, a decision stemming almost solely on the fact I went lineless with the style. Do I think it looks better without them?

Yeah!

Did trying to draw two guns, a knife, and a candleabra take ages to render?

Also yes.

There was more I wanted to add in the empty spaces, but I've already spent so long on this, I would've gotten frustrated adding anything else. Just imagine the Curator is standing in a shadowy corner. He's there in spirit. Anyway, go check out In The Shadows Of The Same Eclipse, I promise its a banger!

It dropped in temp for two (2) whole days, which means its time to start thinking about my favorite wintery horror: Until Dawn!

These guys are so silly. Surely nothing bad will happen two years in a row if we go to a remote mountaintop cabin owned by the brother of the twins who went missing. Surely not. Perish the thought.

Live life like a dream!

That's right, there's more of 'em!

And that bird thing. Sure it's fine.

[crime-cryptid]

hey guys, got lost in the time vortex, you know how it is!

Anyway these guys work for a government investigation sector and they totally don't interact with The Horrors
