Hey I'm Max and this is an art/character/personal blog for dark-serpent.

Sorry for the art spam but here's some stuff from DCAY over on ChickenSmoothie. None of the characters belong to me!

Gift art (art trade??? idk she drew one of my ocs earlier and I promised something in return but this isnt going to be the last i draw for her so) for my lovely lady, redlobco of her vulture/hyena griffin character, Agnes. The vulture head and accessories were fun to do, but I'm not terribly happy with the bg. Rocks aren't my thing lmao.

Commission 2/5 for someone on IG, of their character named Blade. This was a lot of fun to do, and I'm very happy with how it turned out.

Another character portrait! This time we have Gambit, my shy, skittish baby. Poor girl has some Issues. This was a whole lot of fun to do though. I love shading long, fluffy fur.

I'd like to get around to drawing portraits for my OCs, partially for my OC directory, but also because so many of them need love. Plus, it's a good project to try and work on, because I've been having a hell of a time forcing myself to draw. So, here's the first one, Avarice! God she's awful, but I love her.

“May I please draw your OC?”

Reblog this message if you encourage anyone that wants to draw your OC to do so.  No need to ask for permission in advance.

Go for it.  Draw my OC.  If you want, I’ll even give you reference posts.  Go to town on it.

You are welcome to draw my OC and surprise me with the result.  Seriously.  In fact, I encourage it.  I will proudly display whatever it is you submit to me regarding my OC.  There is a chance that I will squeal about it for several days.

Even if you feel you aren’t good at whatever artistic adventure it is you do, please feel free to submit it to me.  I want to see what you have done.

New character, a kangal dog named Morrigan! She's a guard in a snowy, mountainous region, who uses a massive and very impractical sword called a zweihander. The mechanism holding it in place is designed similar to the latch on handcuffs, except rather than a key, they come undone when she pulls down hard enough.

She's gay for Vela.

I have too many dog characters.

"die for anyone, what have i become?”

Another Dangan Ronpa AMV, Juzo this time because I hated him originally and now I’ve adopted him as my son. Also I thought this song fit.

I’m miss pink sugar, liquour, liquour lips.

Art commission!

No shading this time, so that was nice.

Sweet dreams are made of this...

Wanted to play around with lighting and lining a little bit, so I whipped this up in a couple of hours. The character isn’t originally a dog, but... I didn’t want to struggle with drawing humans rip. The background isn’t great either but I rushed it.

"if you must die, remember your life..."

I made a sad thing because I am very broken over the last couple episodes of Mirai-hen.

Another piece for my Illustration class from the summer program. I like the image a lot, but I didn't get to do everything I wanted to the background because I ran out of time, so it could stand to be a lot more detailed. I might go back and fix it later, but for now, here it is.

The character pictured is one I designed solely for this illustration, and though he doesn't have a name yet, he's a mutant with the ability to breathe underwater, and he uses that to his advantage in his occupation as a sunken ship explorer/treasure hunter.

I guess I have a thing for giving my male OCs long hair.

Show me how it ends, it's alright. Show me how defenseless you really are.

This was my Illustration final for an art college program I attended last month. I'm actually really happy with how this piece turned out, especially since it's a person and I'm not super comfortable drawing people yet.

Lining was a nightmare, especially since Sai crashed four times when I was trying to save it so I wound up having to reline it more times than I should have, but it still turned out good, I think.

The character pictured is named Vincent, and though he's normally a canine, I felt the image would be better if I turned him into a human. The shadowy character is a demon named Ixis who has an interesting past with Vincent.

First art on this blog.

I had a lot of fun playing with backgrounds and lighting on this one. The characters and the scene are from a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon RP I'm doing with @redlobco. Visit her blog to see some of the art she did for it.
