Common Raven with a shaggy nape and drooping wings, this is a ref sheet for an OC. Text reads: "Irene Common Raven Long rooster-like nape and throat feathers Capable runner and kicker Shinier than Sandy [her mate, an American/Northwestern crow] Depends on intimidation Flightless, wings droop and drag due to nerve damage"

A EULR unit from Signalis in a silly and graceful strut next to a STAR unit with poor, awkward posture. They have muted palettes with yellow stripes where the base game units have red.

Hopefully this looks better on Bluesky. Here are my other main #signalis characters, neither of them are named yet (I've been using various stupid fill-ins).

Happy to take name suggestions for Eule cadre themes and non-WWII military vehicles.

Fun midriff crop I guess. I'm not used to posting my art on a site like this.

If I end up being happy with what I'm writing, I'll post it on ao3 and throw a link on here also.

Fuck it actually, here's the basic references I have for the ARAR+STAR I've been drawing/writing a bunch about. The Ara is Efeu/"Ivy", and the Star is Schwarzvogel/"Blackbird" (translated literally and based on the plane which shouldn't be translated but she's a little silly).

2 signalis replikas kissing each other. One is an ARAR unit, the other is a STAR unit. They both have more muted/soft palettes than in-game.

I keep thinking I should post here more! Here's my last piece of 2025 and first of 2026, gay birds of 2 varieties.

Been very Signalis obsessed for a minute especially. Perhaps I should post my other Signalis art here. And my other bird art.

A mostly gray and cream falcon dressed in a brown aviator hat, green collar with cream wings, and a gray plaid shirt. She is standing straight and looking forward. She is not heavily marked, but has green and black swirls on her chest, as well as green tail and wingtips. Transparent background.

I should actually post here shouldn't I. I do like this site!

Currently obsessed with Animal Jam. Here is my main on there, Crashing Bravebird. What a creature.

A lineless illustration (if you can call powerpoint art that) of a Black Rail (based on the Central Valley Subspecies) taking flight. It is a charcoal-gray bird with a brown mantle, white spots across the back, and a striking red eye.

I made a Black Rail in Powerpoint. Not at all what I typically do but I like her.

A pair of birds in warm lighting leaping into an airborne embrace, their plumes intertwining. The upper character, Phoenix, is a crow-billed and primarily orange bird with a black-bordered white facial mask and bluish shoulders. She is partially obscured by her mate, Ice, who is in front of her. Ice is a thick-billed, bare-faced bird of blue-gray color with purplish back stripe that transitions into a lacing pattern, and her tail ends in sharp points like a grouse's.

Right. I've been following people but I haven't posted yet. Probably won't post very often but here's a stale piece of some my most beloved #OriginalCharacters for the sake of showing some of my interests.
