A Water Color Snail. They Are A Cuban Painted Snail. Their Name Is Sheldrake. Might Make Some Snails

A water color snail. They are a Cuban painted snail. Their name is Sheldrake. Might make some snails for sale if they become popular.

Image Id: A snail on a light, warm gray background. The snail’s head has two gray eyestalks and one small gray tentacles. The head is red on top, orange in the middle, and yellow on the bottom. The center of the spiral is white. As it moves out it becomes yellow, then green, then white again. Then it shifts to dark brown, to brown and orange and finally to red and yellow.

New style experiment. Dragon fruits look so very very strange.

A korean leaps into the air with a silver baseball bat held in both hands over their shoulder. They're wearing a dark blue leather jacket with asymmetrical tails, a white shirt, and gray shorts. They have purple and white striped socks and black and white converse. A black backwards baseball keeps their spiky black hair in check. Their expression is angry and intense. A green bandana covers their mouth. They're lit from below by orange city lights, and from the left by a row of blue street lights, receding with the brick buildings into the distance. A city skyline stretches behind them beneath a sky that goes from orange at the bottom to dark blue at the top.

They're here; they're queer; and they're ready to fuck shit up.

Another oc, different story than dogslobber and different than Kira. The working title is Symbol. They're name is Ryder, alias Rookie. What are they fighting? Wait and see.

Another boyfriend requested sea slug. He is shaped like a friend.

Image Id: A side view of a cream sea slug with orange antennae and spots. It has three round feet and several wavy thick tendrils on its butt. The background is a desaturated mint green.

A young black woman with a wide stance stands on a purple stage. Her back is to the viewer but she is looking over her shoulder and smiling defiantly. She's playing a dark purple guitar with gold tuning pegs and a black strap, a cord leads out of frame to an amp. Her hair is short and natural, with the strands that frame her face dyed red. She has two gold piercings in her ears. She wears a jean vest with a black sword enveloped in flame stitched on the back, long green pants, and red boots. She's silouetted by a blue spotlight in front of her and it to the side by blue light.

18 and ready to scream. Meet Chel, the lead singer and guitarist of Flame Blade, Kira and Midas's band. She is sooooo fun to draw.

Really like little red riding hood, lady knights, and fairytale retellings. Expect many more red-riding hood images, it’s a years-long obsession not leaving anytime soon.

Image Id: An anthropomorphic gray wolf with a sheep skin cape and red eyes kneels before a young adult in leather armor. The wolf kisses her hand. Her conflicted face is framed by her short brunette hair. On her upper left arm’s armor is a metal engraving of a slashed through paw. Her left hand holds a knife. She wears a white skirt, brown leggings, and brown boots. A red cape billows out behind her. The figures stand in a snowy meadow in front of many aspens.
