howdy howdy!

I'm Falgaia, an art hobbyist working primarily in pixelart and pastel, with occasional dabblings in JuiceFX for animations. Many of my subjects are either OCs, my gijinka cultists, or occasional fanart.

I try to reblog art from smaller creators when possible, typically focused on pixel art or OC content. My art-only blog can be found at @falgaiarchive.

Feel free to say hi!

Steamboat Willow! Straight from the public domain! Artfight Link! #kaleidoverse

Willow is public domain and free to use, go have fun with the Transfem mouse should you so desire. +)

Alt text: Willow, a transfem Steamboat Willie southern belle, posed to do the ojou-sama laugh meme. She is a short mousegirl with twin hair drills and a large, puffy stovepipe hat, complete with an elaborate low-cut dress that shows off her sizeable cleavage and shoulders. She is shaded simply in a 4 color style+ black with a light gradient over the piece on a background reminiscent of the original public domain work.

Sharon, Menagerie Dolltender (artfight) #kaleidoverse

"See a form you like? If nothing quite suits you, perhaps we can custom-tailor a blank to meet your needs. If you need more time to discover yourself, you can always return to make adjustments." (Lore after the break)

A prolific dollmaker in life, Sharon created larger-than-life toys from her own wool for the sick and destitute to have something to play with. Mags first tracked her down several centuries ago after seeing her works firsthand among audiences and being impressed by the smiles they brought their owners. Weaving their magick together, the two came up with the idea of the Magpies- vessels for souls that would give those seeking a second chance at life the means to do so. When Sharon herself passed away, she too became a Magpie- after all, her work bringing smiles to the world was nowhere near finished!

Sharon is entirely pacifist, only using her magic to bring joy to others and mend her creations. Faux is her greatest creation, a fox she saved from a trap and taxidermized long before she had met with Mags. Upon creating the Magpie ritual, Mags discovered that the fox had been so perfectly preserved her soul had remained happily in her body as Sharon's inanimate pet for years. Deciding she deserved a reward for its dedication, they worked hard to create a body full of joy that would allow her to experience life to the fullest.

alt: Sharon, a living doll in the form of a sheep. Her body is comprised of many puffy wool sections, comprising a top, a dress-like bottom, and a woolen up-do and leggings. Her horns are made of the handles of a large pair of scissors nested in her back, while her nose is comprised of a red sewing cushion tied to her face. Several pins and needles are poking out of her soft body, while a few gold and navy cloths and ornaments can be found decorating her body. The golden grin indicative of all Magpies has been pushed up on her face, instead acting as a headband.

『Legionnaire Cultist』 (Spiritomb Veil) [ArtFight link] #veiledcults

Lore below

A power sought only by the foolish or overly confident, the totem of Spiritomb is not one to be trifled with. Containing the souls of one hundred and eight People and Pokemon who disappeared at once as part of an ancient occult ritual, the malevolence contained within its keystone mask is immense. Unlike most totemic Veils, letting a Spritomb into your vessel is asking over a hundred entities to share it with you- a desperate play that typically ends with the mind and body splitting at the seams as the dominating spirits fight for control over individual muscle fibers. It has been speculated that if someone could get the minds within to work under a united front, that the power they weild would be capable of felling gods. That said, the bargains that would be necessary to reach such a concensus would leave whatever remains of the host practically unrecognizable as anything resembling a human.

(Shoutout to Artfight descriptions for reminding me that Cynthia in my Veiled Cults AU was a Spiritomb Cultist before murdering Giratina and becoming its vessel)

alt text: A purplish-pink energy being in a roughly humanoid form is pressed into the ground, legs struggling to keep them upright as lime-green hair swirls around them. Their head is clasped in a gray stone mask from which a white flash shines through the only opening; the cracks within bleeding a fiery energy. A stone cuff binds their arms behind them, from which a large spiralling mass of starstuff spills out forming a cosmos behind them before splintering off into tails. Two large, green energy wings point upward from her back.

『Mirage of Black Threads』

have a mega banette cultist-turned-magical-girl!

Saved by love and united in purpose, Banette-bound Annie has dedicated her new life to becoming a member of the Mirage Alliance despite being one of the "cultists" they are actively hunting. Living unlife to the fullest as a prankster savant, she works with Blaire to try to bring peace to the dead.

Alt text: A mega-banette gijinka rests on the ground wearing a large black dress with gold frills. Her shoulder puffs resemble the hands of a Mega Banette, with one of the claw fingers of each being occupied by her arms resembling a pink latex glove. Her face is porcelain white with a teasing grinning expression and a wink, wearing a bonnet that can seal over her face like her original Mega Banette mask. She weilds a large umbrella with a red-tinted inside, from which two tendrils droop down to rest on her shoulders as fake hair extensions.

『 Mirage of Shifting Light 』

Have an update for Blaire, my Mew Mirage magical girl! (Links to ArtFight)

Blaire, Mirage Maiden of Mew. Blaire is a dark skinned magical girl clad in a pink dress, weilding a crook-staff in the shape of Mew's tail.

Blaire and her allies are on a divine mission to maintain harmony between the worlds of humans and Pokemon, punishing those who would use a Pokemon's power for profane means. Blaire's power shifts the shape of her soul to resonate with Pokemon she has saved, adapting her powers to match.

#メイドの日 Maid Day 2026

[frankomudo]

today was the inauguration of my solo art exhibition at our local library! :^)

every year i try to do one or two pieces related to the Carnation Revolution. in Portugal, on April 25th, we celebrate the Carnation Revolution - the day where a (mostly non-violent) military coup overthrew the current dictatorship and paved the way for a democratic regime. it was also responsible for ending the Portuguese Colonial War, which, as you can probably tell, was happening between our country and, at the time, our African colonies. this exhibition collects 10 pieces of carnation revolution art, made over the last 5+ years of working professionally as an illustrator, alongside the written testimony of my uncle, who was stationed in Africa (due to obligatory military service for young men) up until the date the government was forcefully disbanded.

i wanted to create a clear contrast between someone who grew up in a post-revolution Portugal (and joyfully pursued his calling in art) and someone who spent their formative years in a fascist state and went to war because of it.

i couldn't be happier about the final result. it brings me joy to be able to present my work in this way. 25 de abril sempre!
