It's that time again! I'm not going anywhere, but in case anyone isn't following me on bsky (art account - doodles/personal), I am over there. You can also follow me on Toyhouse if you'd just like to read about my ocs.

I also just recently started teaching myself to build an actual website, so I'll advertise that whenever it's up too.

Experimental thing for @chickenly ! Tinsel is always having a good day

I haven’t played with inks in years and my materials are not exactly ideal, but great to try again

[pywurm-fr]

All of the elemental lair scenes for Flight Rising, together! This was a hell of a project, and you can really see where I learned as I went. There's a lot I'd go back and change if I could still but overall I'm super happy with these and so glad to get the opportunity

[pythosart]

I have got to be less picky about what I post here or I’ll never post.

WIP. I’ve been feeling stifled sticking too close to objectivity and “scenes”/ too rigid in color choices etc. Trying an entirely new approach and blending it with my usual

I might take this to finish, but I’ll probably start over from the color sketch since I like it more than the lined one

[pythosblathers]

Sketches from the past couple days. I’m slowwwwly honing in on a color palette and look I actually vibe with (picked directly off a green heron, to start with)

+1 Suspicious Bastard added to party

I wish these didn’t take me so long because I love drawing my friends’ characters acting so much

[pythosblathers]

Pavi Elder Scrolls AU outfit thoughts from my lunch break. She’s a Bosmer. She’s looking for loopholes in the Green Pact so she can smoke a bowl and eat carbs (half joking)

They have so little interesting lore compared to everyone else, but the little bits I do like are VERY GOOD and I am stubborn. They also have fuckall interesting clothing, so as usual I have to do everything myself

Mostly Scythian inspired here. I’ve got a few more ideas to try, but anything to escape the generic ren faire wood elf look they’re stuck with

[pythosblathers]

The scheming and it's about to be everyone's problem sisters

(also still playing with brushes on my lunch break)

EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS

Hey all, unfortunately yesterday I got some bad news in that the offer for my new job that I was meant to start this month has been rescinded - putting me in a position where I am unable to pay rent next month (as well as food for myself and my cats, and paying other bills), which my landlord is aware of - I deseperately need to make enough to cover rent so I don't get in trouble, so I'm opening up some emergency commissions

PET COMMISSIONS - $60 per pet

I will draw your a portrait of your pet for 60 dollars. I am more than happy to do multiple pets in one drawing.

OC/CHARACTER PORTRAITS - $90 per character

I will draw a portrait of your character for 90 dollars. I can do multiple portraits in one commission if you would like a "character sheet" style commission, or would like multiple OCs "hanging out"

I also have my Ko-Fi where I doodle a bird of your choice for $10 if this is out of your price range. https://ko-fi.com/tytonidaeus

If you're interested, please send me a DM on here. For Americans, please be aware I can only use Paypal as certain other cash-apps do not allow non-Americans to use them (i.e. me). Thank you for reading.

[blossompigeon]

Hello again. I’m reaching the end of my queue and just want to put out another boost that I’m accepting commissions again! Whilst I have been applying to jobs diligently (and have a promising interview next week!) I’m once again at the end of the line in regards to money, and desperately need some help.

Some recent commissions I’ve done from the last batch are as follows, if you’d like some recent examples! If anyone could spread this I would be eternally grateful. Thank you

[pythosart]

Trying a bunch of brushes I like but never use, seeing if I can mix them into my workflow

Plus I missed drawing Maris

[pythosblathers]

They’ll be obsolete any day now

[pythosblathers]

Had to draw all the Vintage Story thingies together at least once. Some kind of thingy field guide for when I inevitably draw more of them

[pythosblathers]

Local CRUEL hunter unfairly makes the tailor be the final girl I mean they

(Final they Skein belongs to @reliquarian )

[gutterghostt]

hi. in wake of The News I'm doing sketch comm donations to Trans Continental Pipeline. If you prove to me you've donated at least $15 to them I'll draw something for you. My DMs should be open, so shoot me a message. Feel free to censor your name or what have you. Here are some examples of what to expect- i'm not sure quite what style i'll do for most of these, but it'll be one of these,

[robertreich]

Congress is now considering the appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security, whose funding runs out at the end of January. Call your members of Congress and tell them to vote NO on any bill that increases ICE's funding. Please demand that the DHS appropriations bill prohibit ICE and Border Patrol agents from carrying guns and that it unambiguously declare that agents do not have absolute immunity under the law if they harm civilians. Also tell them that any bill must restrict ICE and Border Patrol’s ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations and target people based on their race, language or accent. And the bill must clarify that ICE agents are liable under civil and criminal law if they harm civilians. Do this as soon as you can. To reach your representative or senator, call the U.S. Congressional Switchboard at [phone]. Tell them the state and city where you live. They will connect you to any member’s office.

Wrong turn in the Torrent

I wanted to do something more with the little Darktide portraits I was doing recently, and got a little ambitious. As you do

The portraits are from this! I thought they came out too nice to stay sequestered to OC paperwork

[pythosart]

Well and truly back on my Darktide bullshit and dragged the new crop of characters in.

Maris has been stripped of her rank and picked up a problematic combat stimm addiction as her entry point into the warband. But at least she’s surrounded by friends colleagues she can more or less tolerate, and her sister.

B/W versions of both of these here and here because I like my lines
