Digital art reference sheet for my lalafell character named Yuyuka Bramblewood. She is a teenager with long honey-gold hair, elf like ears, freckled white skin, a lightning-like scar across her chest, prominent buck-teeth, green and brown heterochromia, and two horns. The right horn is broken in half.
On the left side she is depicted wearing a necklace and a floor-length dark turquoise dress. Half of her hair has been tied back in braids. Meanwhile on the right side she is depicted wearing light green loungewear and her hair is being worn entirely down. In both outfit variations she can be seen wearing red earrings.

A femme blue fairy character lies slumped across a pew in a dark, ruined church, lit by a stained glass window above with a design of a blue morpho butterfly and bluebells in the glass. The fairy has light blue skin, blue hair, antennae with golden eyes along their length, and large feathery wings with eye-like markings. They are staring intently at the viewer with eyes that are fully black with gold pupils, from where they lie with their face partially hidden in their arms. On the ground is a doll, illuminated in the moonlight, with a small horn and damaged fairy wings sewn on.

A talking sprite of my sona which mimics the monochromatic and sketch-like artstyle of the Slay The Princess visual novel. She's a round hand puppet wearing a princess dress instead of her usual dungarees; the sprout that grows out of her head on her normal design is noticeably absent. On her lips is a sinister laugh although the stitches at both corners of her mouth limits her range of expression.

Might be unrelated but I’ve had my pc fully crash several times while drawing in clip lately! No objections from my PC while playing games for hours but 15 minutes of drawing lines is too much apparently. 😭

Artwork of my D&D character, Ez, a half-orc sorcerer, submerged in the ocean with the water up to his chin. He has pale green skin, long dark green hair and long tusks, with a chrysanthemum tattoo on his neck and shoulder. He is viewed in profile with an expression somewhere between regret and apathy. Below him, his long pink scarf floats in the water, with an image of his ship, the Blue Morpho, sailing through churning waves with lightning flashing around it. Above his head, a blue morpho butterfly floats in a blue sky.

I will always fight for people’s rights to create NSFW content but as a sex-repulsed asexual I also wish folks would respect other people’s rights to respectfully avoid it. Someone will see a tag and go β€œhell yeah” and I’ll know to stay away whilst letting people enjoy their tea. Consent is key!
