My brand!

Sticker Mule never ceases to please me. I'm also really glad that the promo was for 3" stickers, cause I really like how smol and compact they are.

Ribcage

Many of us feel like life has torn us apart so many times that, at this point, we're just a stitchwork mess of things we've found that fit close enough.

Between the physical, emotional, and mental scars of experience, we may not even look the same as when we first started. Life is supposed to be messy, and it's expected to rip through us again and again; and as crippling as the pain may get, it strengthens our hearts. We can look back on our scars and say that we made it through... and show others that they can make it, as well.

Be proud of the beauty in your patchwork colors, of the scars and stitches - the evidence of your existence. You don't have to explain yourself or prove yourself to anyone. You live, and you are enough.

Made with Sakura Micron pens, Copic markers, Prismacolor Colored pencils, and final edits done with Photoshop.

In my hiatus, I completely forgot to scan this in and upload it to anything... After drawing Omen, I wanted to practice doing more portraits of my FFXIV toons. I don't still play as Raven Kha (I actually had deleted the alt before making this picture, with a cutsene screenshot for reference), but I loved her aesthetic, between the character creation results and the gear I glammed her for. It was a little tough to figure out the scale details, but I think I managed to represent them well enough for the illustration?

I'm incredibly pleased with how she turned out, from the gradients of her skin to the details of the horns and scales. I tried to edit it as best as I could to replicate how vibrant it is in person, but nothing quite compares to the original.

My arthritis is killing me after handlettering this whole thing 😅

May give this an inkwash splash when I get home from Artists Market.

Interested in getting a first-hand look at WIPs and exclusive content? Or maybe you'd like to receive art prints monthly? How about just a fervent passion for supporting artists?

Come find Manic Wolf Art on Patreon!

I'll be reopening subscriptions soon, after doing a slight revamp to my selections and process.

For less than the price of most cafe coffees, you could browse exclusive content, with sneak peaks into future projects. AND you'd provide me with warm fuzzies.

Finished a thing. Gonna turn it into a new logo later.

I’ve been doing a lot of experimentation with inks, Copic markers, and color pencils while I was in between finding my tablet pens. These are the finished products of those artistic musings. All of these went to someone as gifts, but I might consider selling prints of a couple of these if they seem to have any semblance of popularity. Some of these are from a series of soul reflections– pieces of me that may contain emotional influences.
