Rough pass, for those curious:

3/4 profile headshot of Ice the Alien (AKA Ice the Dewsquilli), a white dog-like creature with large floppy ears, blue markings, and large pink eyes. She is smiling with her tongue sticking out.

Drew Ice on my free time the other day because I felt like she needed more love! It's been a while 💖👽

Sketch of a female anthro hyena-dragon hybrid character in 3/4 back view, flexing one arm. There are smaller sketches of mouths and eyes around her.

Sketch of a beast mid-transformation into a fluffy dragon with ram-like horns, snarling and licking her upper lips on one side.

Went on a trip recently and doodled these on a couple of my flights! ✨

Got busy on The Legend of Vox Machina at Titmouse starting this week! 💃 (For anyone looking to hire, my availability now starts in November.)

Decided to doodle this in my free time today as a sort of cooldown after the busy past few days. Not sure if I'll finish it. ✨

I'm wrapping on my Retakes Animator position on "Golden Axe" with Titmouse and looking for studio work!

I'm a 2D Character and FX Animator. Past work: X-Men 97', Hi-Fi Rush, Date Everything, Supreme, and SO MUCH more!

Some WIPs of the process in making this piece. ✨

I don't get many opportunities to draw for personal art nowadays so I decided to sit down and draw for a while last weekend. Kinda just mindlessly kept drawing until I got tired. WIPs are in the thread below if anyone is curious. 🎨

Hey. So, my building caught fire and there’s a lot of shit that we need to fix. This is my family’s theater building. One of the apartments above it across from mine caught fire. We have smoke, fire, water damage, and busted doors. Pls help if u can.

It has been brought to my attention that someone is scamming people via Discord using my werewolf animation as an "example" of their animation commissions.

If you receive anything of this nature, IT IS A SCAM! I NEVER advertise my work that way and only do business via my official business email.

Valentine's Day gift I drew recently for my partner! 💕 #digitalart #freelance #characterart

I posted this on my OWN accounts on X, bsky, Instagram, and YouTube. The only other person who has rights to repost this animation is the client who commissioned it.

If you see them anywhere else, it is NOT me and I did not give permission to repost it.

Really don't like that I'm having to resort to this lol

Friendly reminder that just because you credit an artist in your description doesn't excuse you from reposting without permission.

If the artist didn't say you could do it, DON'T DO IT.

It's not my place to say since this was a commission. You'll have to ask the client ( @kevincasas.bsky.social )!

Also, out of respect for the client I will not be disclosing how much he spent on the werewolf animation. The document will provide just a general idea of what to expect when you ask for a quote, as well as any additional information regarding the commission process.

Because I have so many emails regarding commission pricing, I am currently compiling a document breaking down what to expect when I do reopen an animation commission slot. I'll keep you all updated when that document becomes available. Thanks!

Hey everyone! ✨

I've been receiving a LOT of emails asking about commissions. Here's a bit of info for you all for now.

I'll post more updates regarding commissions later on when I have the time to focus on it:

It was such an incredible experience getting to work with Maelene to make this amazing piece of animation!! ✨
If you like what you see, stay tuned because there are announcements on the way about a big project for this character! 👀
#werewolfwednesday #ttofnm #myocs

Be aware though, that I am employed full-time currently, so I do not know how soon I can take on another commission. This one was done during a few weeks of free time between studio work. (3/3)

Rates vary depending on a wide range of factors (characters, complexity, length, deadlines, rough/clean/shading/etc). That said, I am always happy to discuss general estimates via email (I generally do not check DMs). (2/3)

To those asking about prices: I do not have my prices listed publically at the moment because they heavily depend on what each individual client is looking for! (1/3)

YouTube video by IceArtz Animation Commission: Noah the Werewolf (Transformation) (2025)

I also decided to post this on my YouTube channel: youtu.be/iRCdzx6KqT8

Thanks! I always animate at 24fps on 1s and 2s (and sometimes 3s).

Had the opportunity to take on a colored rough animation commission for heyokjc (instagram) of a werewolf transformation! 🐺 I had SO much fun working on this. Thank you so much again! 💖

Tied down roughs vs final comp for my shot on the Supreme project. This shot went through a few different iterations before the final. The roughs you see here aren't even the first haha 🏇🐍
