Summer idea from a couple of years ago. Let's call it "a moment before disaster". Emerald and Mercury are posing for the picture, with a certain twist coming right after the first photo is taken 😁

(I don't think I like Mercury's original hairstyle anymore, so I was experimenting here) (Also I don't ship them, but I'm adding a ship tag for those who do)

Qrow in the Scarecrow hat from The Wizard of Oz! Boosty portrait request for Steven <3

[rainbow-zebra-art]

I can't believe I never posted this on my Tumblr. This old Emerald fanart is one of my favorites! The waitress's costume was designed by mojojoj.

The original was drawn in 2017, but later I fixed it a bit.

My Boosty illustration from last summer~ Ruby and Yang enjoying boba tea together. Inspired by the last RWBY: Beyond episode. I wanted to show how happy Yang is to be reunited with her sister, and how she began to appreciate time with Ruby in a new way after the events in Ever After.

The only thing I changed is their clothes. Come on, do you wear fur jackets and long-sleeved sweatshirts with leather gloves in the heat? Tаkе it all оff, lаdiеs!!

You can download the full-sized version here.

RWBY and Gravity Falls crossover

Happy Gravity Falls anniversary, everyone! <3 Here's a drawing that was posted a couple of months ago on my Boosty. So, this is another crossover I've been thinking about for a long time. At one point, I noticed that I kept making one mistake while typing Oscar's surname. Oscar Pines, not Pine. But why? That's because my brain was already used to the Pines family 😁

And so this idea was formed. Pines triplets, how does that sound? I was also trying to make them look alike, so now they all have Oscar's complexion and freckles, and brown hair like Dipper and Mabel. But I kept their eyes closed intentionally because I couldn't decide on the eye color for all three.

Actually, thinking about it now, non-identical triplets can probably have different features... But I wanted them to look connected.

RWBY OC of @rwby-soh!

This portrait was brought to you by @carn-project, who generously decided to use their Boosty bonus as a gift for you <3

So, here is Scarlet Taurus-Fall. The daughter of Adam and Cinder (obviously), a bovine faunus, and the leader of team SJJL.

You can check out more info about her here!

Also, she is the character from the fanfiction RWBY: Seeds of Hope, Sins of the Past, which you can read on Fanfiction.net or AO3.

Finished mermaid YCH commission for Soundwave3591. His RWBY OC Ebony Shale as a fabulous mermaid 💖

Ebony is a part of team JADE from Soundwave's “My Brother’s Keeper” RWBY AU. And I've already drawn Amber as a mermaid last year!

Finished mermaid YCH commission for Witheredbranches on Deviantart. Their lovely green mermaid, Nicole 💚 I love the Disney vibes!

Commission for Shilic! Featuring characters from her RWBY AU: Marigold, Emerald, and Ayumi (with her snake Lilith). Another warm Vacuo scene, I'm starting to get used to drawing these backgrounds 🤭

Fun facts to consider: 🟡 Marigold is a rat faunus, and her Semblance lets her float in the air. 🟢 Emerald received a pardon after her criminal past and is now studying to become a nurse. ⚫️ Ayumi is half-Grimm, and Lilith that emerges from her hair functions as her Semblance.

🌸 Mermaid Luka 🌸 This year's offering to the Mermay challenge. Kind of a continuation of the Vocaloid mermaids theme I started last year, with this Mermaid Miku drawing.

New artwork for the series of "RWBY characters in Slavic folk costumes". And hey, it's my country now! This time there were two customers, so thanks a lot to @carn-project and Amurlander 🥰

Nora is wearing a costume of the Russian North, represented by a lovely dress from Arkhangelsk Oblast/Region (village of Luda, early 20th century). Similar red and pink outfits, decorated with various types of grid patterns, are found in different territories of the Russian North. With the approval of the customer, I personally chose this one for Nora, as I really wanted to see her in pink, while we had such an opportunity :)

Lie Ren, since he is East Asian coded, represents the Russian Far East. Namely, the Amur Cossack costume. With the customer's permission, it's not a strict depiction of a specific uniform, but rather a generalized image representing the regional culture. For the same reason, I ask you to consider the nagaika (a whip) exclusively as an element of Cossack equipment and equestrian life.

Other artworks for this series: Cinder and Adam (Croatia and Belarus) Blake (Serbia) Emerald (Poland)
