"Maybe I Was Always Beautiful", June 2024, made with FireAlpaca

Image Description:

An art piece depicting a plus-sized transmasculine siren/merman basking in the open ocean, with one arm raised, and the other folded behind his head. He has the markings and features of a Dusky Dolphin, though with the addition of webbed hands and claws. He also has dark, incredibly wavy short hair, top surgery scars, and a serene expression. The sunlight hits him from above/behind, which gives him an almost ethereal glow.

"Ghost Encounter" March 2024, made with FireAlpaca

Image Description:

A black and white illustration depicting a polaroid photograph of two ghosts nestled within the tall grasses of a prairie on a full moon night. One appears to be a typical bison, while the other takes the shape of a hadrosaur skeleton which has curled itself protectively around the bison. Although both figures appear to be solid, their eyes display a sharp, unnatural glow. The image is shaded with a mixture of traditional cell shading and halftones. Though not apparent in the image, the artist would like to state that the bison and the hadrosaur are friends... perhaps, even lovers.

This thing is approximately 10 seconds away from mauling you like a rabid dog on crack before proceeding to [DATA EXPUNGED] your ass out of existence. I love him so much. I just want him to be happy.

This piece was something I made last year and never got around to posting, hence the old watermark. I also took some creative liberties with 096's design because I felt a little silly.

"POV: You are a D-Class on your first day. It is also your last." August 2023, made with FireAlpaca

Image Description:

An illustration of SCP-096, AKA, "The Shy Guy", an incredibly tall, pale, gaunt human entity with clawed hands and feet, standing alone in a dark, empty room. It's body is so thin that its skin appears tight against its bones, as if starved. The entity stands awkwardly on the tips of it's toes, it's knees bent inward, with one arm hanging limply, and the other slightly bent upwards towards it's chest. It's head is cocked to the side, and it wears and expression of worry or confusion. Although SCP-096 is typically depicted as having blank, milky eyes, the illustration depicts the creature with glowing red eyes and black sclera.

These bitches have SUCH SIMILAR concepts, but their vibes are completely different. The fuck is up with that. I want to kiss them both.

"Murder Frenemies" June 2024, made with FireAlpaca

Image Description:

An art piece depicting two alternate universe (AU) versions of Sans the Skeleton from the hit indie game "Undertale" by Toby Fox having a verbal altercation in their cars. The image is presented from inside Killer!San's (a skeleton in the foreground with black streaks down his face in a dark grey turtleneck shirt with cutoff sleeves, a loose blue hoodie, and dark fingerless gloves) car as he makes a piece sign with a smug expression. In the background, Dust!Sans, AKA Murder!Sans (a skeleton with a partially obsured face in a faded blue hoodie with the hood up, a dark grey baseball cap, shirt, and fingerless gloves, and a red scarf) flips Killer!Sans off with a mildly disgusted expression. While Killer is typically depicted with blank eyes, one of his eyes is given a sharp, manic red glow. One of Dust's eyes is also visible beneath the shadows obscuring part of his face, glowing a vibrant purple with hints of red and blue in his eye light. The Illustration is drawn over a photograph. The original photograph is under the cut:

Lil Update:

SO this blog is gonna just be for my art now. Sorry for everyone who came for comic hot takes and opinions on monsters and stuff, I still like that stuff but I wanna focus more on my art for this blog. I may post some links to my AO3 whenever I write or update a fic, but for the most part, it's gonna be my art whenever I have the time to draw.

Anyways prepare for an art dump because I've got a bit of a backlog of things that I've yet to post. So if that's not your thing, feel free to unfollow!

[sunnythebot]

Incoming URL change, y'all. I hope you're ready.

[sunnythebot]

If y'all think the sans fan girl is cringe wait till you've met him after he's started his transition

Anyways I desire multiple versions of that skeleton carnally and my girlfriend is cheering me on like I'm at a pokemon tournament, cause baby I'm about to catch em all

I know this is gonna be an unpopular opinion but I actually liked that they made Carnage (the symbiote) a separate character to Cletus Kasady in Venom 2, because something that's always kinda bugged me about Carnage as a whole is that fact that it feels like the symbiote itself has absolutely no personality of its own. It just feels like Cletus was given eldritch superpowers since he's the one who calls the shots, and as far as I'm aware, we never see or hear anything from the symbiote itself (please correct me if I'm wrong tho). It's like Carnage isn't even its own person, its just... Cletus, but he gets to be even more murder happy than he already was.

And while I've heard people explain it away as "oh they're just so in sync you can't even tell that Carnage is two different people", that explanation... honestly feels like an excuse not to flesh out a separate character. Like seriously, what is the Carnage symbiote thinking or feeling while Cletus uses it to do whatever the fuck he wants? Does it like the violence or does it hate being used to kill against its will? Is it okay going along with whatever Cletus wants or does it resent him for never allowing it any semblance of control? I can't help but feel like the lack of characterization of the symbiote itself is a massive amount of wasted potential.

You could have an arc about the symbiote growing to hate Cletus for robbing it of autonomy, and potentially even breaking free to find a host that won't hold it back.

You could have a bit of a reversal on the way Venom was introduced, where Carnage at first seems to be non-sentient, only for the story to slowly reveal that it is trapped by the whims of its host over time.

Hell, you could even do an arc similar to the movie where Carnage genuinely was born evil, but its goals ended up clashing with Cletus, causing them to turn on eachother!

And it's not just Carnage either, there's a good number of symbiotes who aren't actually given any characterization outside of being an extension of their host, and the fact that this is so fucking prevalent just... really bugs me.

Is there “Carnage” is Absolute Carnage?

Does Red have a personality or is carnage all Kasady? Does the carnage symbiote have it’s own personality? Because if yes the tital Absolut

Edit: found the post which which had a lot of examples.

The reblog had lots of panels of Carnage or Red acting as a separate entities.

(And that's not even including the recent runs where Cletus and Carnage have been separated and both have been engaging in mayhem on their own)

A lot of examples are from Venom vs Carnage (though ooc in a lot of ways, partly because it has Venom and Carnage actually acting like parent and spawn, but it's interesting.)

Another one:

There was also a Deadpool what if (Jerry springer parody) with anthro!Carnage symbiote.

Edit 2 found it:

There we have it Carnage symbiote canon anthro design.

Hey, thanks for bringing this to my attention!

Hey, sorry guys. Accidentally reblogged some stuff meant for my main onto here again.

A gift for my dear friend @ijustdontknowsometimes, who I have developed the habit of drawing as Kermit the frog for no other reason than his PFP is always Kermit the frog and I think it is objectively hilarious to draw people like their icons, even when I already know what said person looks like. I dunno, I'm weird like that.

Hey guys, a word of warning! I've been consumed by my FNAF phase again, and I will likely begin to post art for it and possibly even write stuff for it in the coming weeks.

Unfollow me now if you can't handle my cringe swag.

Thank you!
