Concept artist 29 - ♒️ - She/her

[thoseofthatilk]

Hello! I’m Thoseofthatilk or ofthatilk or just ilk

✦ About me ✦ I’m a concept artist/illustrator for TTRPG’s and im in the last stretch of my MFA in Illustration. Most of my socials have to be pretty organized and professional so tumblr is my get away when it comes to sharing non-sense.

✦ I have a lot of silly OC's and personal projects that I'm working on so I share a mix of fanart and personal work!

✦ I love creature and character designing - I do hobby field geology, have an unhealthy knowledge of planes and I like to collect perfumes and masks!

18+ blog, I have no time for children or prudish behavior sorry!* I don’t bite so never be afraid to say hi! I love good conversation or silly comments and I'm always smiling at the silly tags people make when they reblog my art.

I’m currently finishing up some big classes for teaching so I might pop in and out depending on the work load

✦ My other socials: Blsky Instagram

✦ I’m working on a TTRPG with my partner called Ambition if you wanted to check it out!

Because the gif has some compression going on I wanted to post the still of Pierrot and his birthday cake 🍰

A little slice of cake for Pierrot’s birthday.

Jingles freak circus characters in front of you to talk about perfume~

Did you know Night blooming jasmine isn’t really a jasmine at all and is used more to make a indolic heart note. Its profile is described as thicker, greener and creamy compared to true jasmine. I was poking through my sample box for a friend that needed recommendations and I just wanted to yap.

Speaking of which I have a tip, if you want to find frisky perfume profiles I suggest looking up/for certain terms like indolic, animalic, heady, musky, dirty, and narcotic (all common terms to describe perfume profiles like that) this isn’t a full list just something fun to look out for.

Anyways harlequin is growing on me

Found this memento while looking for passport stuff. Warrior cats was the reason I started drawing, so getting my cat sketched by the warrior cats comic artist was so exciting. I think I was a freshman in highschool in 2012 😅

Visual Exploration for Gabriel’s Icons and my decrepit little thumbnails~

Angels living in their broken ashen chimeral bodies. It’s some stuff for the TTRPG I’m working on ~

Some warm up sketches before work of my chud son TFC oc. On today’s docket - I need to get some concept sketches done for the pottery angels in my partners game and take care of some logistics for an up coming trip. Then tonight I’m going to work more on the harlequin monster fan idea stuff :D

[thoseofthatilk]

Changed out my spring perfume and put out my summer tray which I’ll probably wear till September because it stays hotter longer here. This season I’m wearing Neon Pierrot by Pearfat - Seahorse by Zoologist - Molecule 01 + Ginger by Eccentric Molecule- Dandelion Butter by Clue - the absolutely mouth watering combo of Summer of 84 by Kerosene and Rio De Janerio by Memoir of a perfumer and a dash of love and the sea by Sorce

Was working on a new profile pic and remembered my goat Scott McCloud and pivoted, I read his entire book on comics for class and it’s such a banger

Maybe I’ll finish it later but why when I can just be a goober

[thoseofthatilk]

When in doubt make your own anatomy up on a model - it’s a little gross I know lol, I’m just trying to figure out how I wanna try plotting these wiggly things for my fan theory. Still not happy with it. Also I know he’s super snake coded but I can’t get the plant vibes out of my head

[thoseofthatilk]

Guess who figured out how to save screenshots? I’m really happy with how they turned out. I made Pierrot sad in the last one lol

[thoseofthatilk]

Looking at myself in the mirror - farmer voice: the Rat tails are coming in beautifully this year.

[thoseofthatilk]

I actually have a harlequin style mask, it’s gorgeous and black light reactive! Aaaannnd I can wear my glasses with it on which is a blessing, It’s made by the lovely and talented Veilsmith of phant0masy.

[thoseofthatilk]

One more perhaps? I don’t have anything conclusive to say like I did with Pierrot. This one was definitely more let’s cosplay as researchers rather than me actually trying to guess what’s going on - a yap session if you will- even still I hope you enjoy my thoughts.

Another peak at a freak

Thinking of perfumes, here was my spring line up. I’m thinking about doing little drawings and reviews with niche perfumes but I need to find the time.

[thoseofthatilk]

I’m surprised how many of you liked my speculative anatomy post! So I decided to follow through and actually illustrate out my otter//leopard seal headcannon for pierrot. My only note is like, there’s no indication he has a tail at all -that part is just for me lol

finished speculating your freak’s biology >.> @nekoboydreams

Close ups….. work in social media friendly canvas ratios you say? …… N-no. This problem could be solved if I draw vertically you say? Shhh lol
