hello! i'm nil, also known as riley/neil, and i'm an artist! here are some things to know about my blog:

About Me

my current fandoms: undertale, deltarune, jojo's bizzare adventure, assassination classroom pokémon, hollow knight, silksong, invader zim, johnny the homocidal maniac, minecraft, terraria, calamity mod, pikmin, pizza tower, stardew valley, don't hug me i'm scared, the amazing digital circus, ɘna, creepypastas, .exe games, friday night funkin'

my current interests: astronomy, ornithology, herpetology, cryptozoology, fantasy worldbuilding, writing, language in general, pretty much any kind of art

Boundries

i am in a committed relationship and i am not interested in any advances. i'm perfectly fine with people acting that way with my OCs, but never with me.

i am very against generative ai. do not use my art, characters, or writing for anything regarding that, especially not for training. i use nightshade on my pieces and i will poison your dataset. i'm also beginning to implement glaze into my work too.

details about commisions below the cut

Commissions

i'm currently taking free commissions! this won't last indefinitely as once i build up a portfolio i'll start charging for new pieces–but for now, ask away!

i also take requests! these will always be free, but the catch is that i do them on my own time and can choose which ones i engage with.

i specialize in character design, especially with human and humanoid/anthro characters! i am willing to try my hand with animals, but i'm not completely confident in that just yet, lol.

anyone who attempts to request or commission discriminatory pieces from me will immediately and permanently be blocked. same thing for if you try to promote that sort of thing on my posts.

sometimes i look at my fanfic and physically recoil but then i remember that dante's inferno is a self-insert fanfic of the bible where dante meets his favorite guys and his enemies are burning in hell so maybe my self-insert oc fics are fine actually. thank you dante

so this is my pokémon trainer oc (yes very different from the first time i drew them i know, the original version of him is a seperate guy now) his name is Lucky. he is a vet for harder to treat types (mainly ghost) and helps treat issues that can't he healed in a pokémon center. the reason half his face is burnt off is because he took a shadow ball to the face while trying to deal with a feral gengar. his partner pokémon is a hisuian zoroark that randomly wandered up to him (as a zorua) when he was growing up in sinnoh. Lucky is so comically haunted and i love him

trying to come up a decently plausible design for what secco looks like under oasis because the idea of him being naked scares me and my current concept page looks like a conspiracy theory

[nil-nothing-nada]

all my fandom ocs are so funny to me because they are all the most horridly eccentric characters you can make within the bounds of that universe's canon and then i go to ship most of them with. some guy. literally the only fandom oc who is paired with an equally strange character is my jojo oc and i'm pretty sure that's because there are no normal people in jojo <3

now that college is over and i'm back home again, here's another bubble cosplay update! i reobtained my blue star sweater which i think works well for him, though i kinda like the checkered pomni cardigan too so i may switch between the two. the biggest update though is that i made optional posable eyelids for expressions which i love (ignore my shitass photo quality)

surge the tenrec fanart :]

[nil-nothing-nada]

okay, question for my utdr+hollow knight combination au. i was planning to make tenna a robotic ant because duh, mr. ANT tenna, but i just had the idea of him being some kind of vague green prince parallel, seeing as the idea of tenna being outdated would could be a cool combo with the whole lost realm thing. which one would be best in your opinion?

Should Tenna be an ant or a Green Prince parallel?

Ant

Green Prince

playing tomodachi life living the dream and i've decided to try to add all my ocs from my previous and current projects along with my favorite media characters. this game is so peak

[nil-nothing-nada]

sorry everyone that work on the assassination classroom + the amazing digital circus duos is going incredibly slowly. i'm terrible at drawing bangs and ribbons are incredibly difficult to get looking consistently good so fuwa and gangle are kicking my entire ass

[nil-nothing-nada]

guys. do you ever get so obsessed with a specific fandom oc you made that now you have to make different versions of them to use in other fandoms so you end up with like five versions of the same guy in slightly different fonts. because that's happening to me with jackson my assassination classroom oc because he is so peak in my head. guh

[nil-nothing-nada]

this is what i mean btw. how did he go from assassination classroom to a minecraft infection mod. what

Assassination Classroom + The Amazing Digital Circus

Part 2: Nagisa and Pomni

Context: The new Assassination Classroom movie released in Japan and the new Amazing Digital Circus episode dropped on the same day on March 20th, so I'm drawing crossover art with characters who are similar! (I'm streaching the definition of similar in some cases...)
