Reaction pic I drew for @ikaithefox

Here's my tribute to this famous meme by @teIepurte

Inspired by the creator of this meme @telepurte (on Instagram) and the design commissionned by @ikaithefox to @kibouw_ (on Instagram) for both their amazing work which served as reference and main inspiration for this piece!

💀 “THE ESSENCE OF INNOCENCE FADES, AS THE BEAST FEASTS UPON THE FRAIL.” 💀

( Z O O M I N F O R M O R E D E T A I L S )

Predator and prey — a cycle as old as time.

“Now you’re scared. Now you’re getting it. There’s no safety in sitting on the sidelines watching. The audience is only safe when the story isn’t about them.” - JUDE PERRY, MAG089 - TWICE AS BRIGHT.

Also inspired by several moments from The Magnus Archives tied to The Desolation and The Hunt. However, this art is meant to vent some of my anger about my own life & past.

🔮 Horacio & Scratnag 🔮

( Z O O M I N F O R M O R E D E T A I L S )

Horacio is my playable character in our D&D party with some school friends. A gaunt, sharp-eyed spellcaster with a penchant for the eerie, he wields forbidden knowledge like a sword, balancing between wisdom and madness. His mystical mount and magical familiar, Scratnag, is a grotesque fusion of horse and rat—stitched together from vermin and shadow, its beady eyes gleaming with unnatural hunger. Together, they ride the edge of the arcane and the profane.

🌀 “I am not a “who,” Archivist, I am a “what.” A “who” requires a degree of identity I can’t ever retain.” 🌀

MAG047 - The New Door

Also inspired by several The Magnus Archives episodes tied to The Distortion, particularly those that explore the themes of unreliable perception, shifting realities, and the horror of never knowing if what you see is real. The way corridors stretch endlessly, doors lead back to where they shouldn't, and voices whisper just out of reach — all of it feeds into an atmosphere of paranoia and existential dread. Anyway, I've absolutely missed the palette I made for Michael Shelley/The Distortion two years ago.

🕯️ “I AM WEIGHED DOWN BY FLESH, YET MY SOUL REMAINS LIGHT.” 🕯️

Yet the fire did not falter. It never does. This is the way of those who burn. 🔥🕯️“All of the worst parts of fire, with none of the warmth.” Also inspired by several The Magnus Archives episodes tied to The Desolation and The Flesh, particularly those that explore the themes of fire, suffering, and the destruction of the self.

🍎 “YOU CAN POLISH YOUR SMILE, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE YOUR BITE.” 🍎

A design for those who know that beneath every sweet grin, teeth still lurk — inspired by hunger, deception, and the truth that always bleeds through. Also inspired by this one apple from The Magnus Archives Episode 34 - Anatomy Class, but also by The Flesh & The Corruption entities.

[sybielart]

🍏 “The fairest apple feeds the foulest rot.” 🍏

Designed this piece as a TMA-inspired tattoo/sticker design — corruption & the horror of what festers beneath.

Finally finished a little digital painting by making a grumpy Ghost!

He's probably upset about some sergeant... Who knows? 💀

(Also, my symbolism-loving self totally did NOT made his face scars look like a 4, with the Glasgow smile scar and the one on his neck both being fallen 1s bc he lost two sergeants... Hahaha, unless..?)

[sybielart]

Here's my tribute to Mouthwashing! I've been obsessing over this game for weeks, so, uh... spoilers, I guess? 💀🔪🎂

The game, quotes and designs belong and were developed by Wrong Organ and published by Critical Reflex (including Kai Moore, Martin Halldin, Jeffrey Tomec & Dave van Egdom). But this artwork is mine.

Drawtober Day 3: Witch (Monster Mash prompts by @drawtober )

I recently discovered Epic: The Musical (created by @jayherrans on Instagram and featuring other incredibly talented artists) after a lifelong fascination with Greek mythology. Scylla’s song is probably my favorite, but something about Circe and Scylla’s lore really struck a chord with me — I tried to match both interpretations. For this piece, I reimagined the Hydra’s heads as something similar to kelpies (this choice led to the fact I officially dislike to draw horse skulls now, huzzah!). It took me hours — days, really — to complete this illustration, so I hope it doesn’t go unnoticed on Tumblr ✨🌙

You can zoom in for better quality/details. ✨🪄

FUN (SPIDER) FACT ABOUT THIS ART

The Portia spider, also known as the "assassin spider," is known for its remarkable ability to mimic the vibrations of other spiders to lure them into its vicinity. It can imitate the movements and vibrations of insects or even prey spiders caught in its web, tricking them into approaching closely before ambushing and consuming them. This sophisticated hunting strategy allows the Portia spider to prey on other spiders, making it a formidable predator in the arachnid world.

My Monster Hearts playable character, Dafoe. ✨🚬

Also yes he does have 8 fingers & 8 toes as a monster, bc somehow bird / bat limbs and it's more uncanny this way teehee. I just had no energy left to draw the bad bat wings in the back yet. Will update as soon as I can.

Inspired by Willem Dafoe as a sort of official fancast ig??

Here's the portrait of one of my fav dnd PC ; Atlas. They're such a iconic drowconic fella fr.

(drowconic ; homemade dnd term for one born from a drow and a dragon)

As you've probably guessed, life's being busy lately (school, home, etc).

Worry not, I'll soon post more regularly if I can allow myself to keep it up!

Somewhere else.

Where they went, the fears probably followed...

[sybielart]

And they were web pals (maybe?) . . .
