An art trade with a friend. We suggested songs to each other, and then picked one suggested from the other to draw in visual form. I chose "Spaceships" by "The Rentals"
Flamestar from elijah_the_cartoonist on instagram
Finally done. Omg I forgot how difficult flames are! Well making them look like flames is difficult. It's not the comic style that I desire but it's a start because I compared it to professionals
Art trade with JaredTheFox92 on DA. The character is Aurelia, the Grey Fox, and she is in her giant evil form. Thank you for looking at my art. This only took me around 5 hours, which is a new record for me! Done in Krita.
The mass absorbs the humans and creatures forming into a screaming husk. Hoping for death, the only live to feed the mass, with every thought fading slowly from consciousness. This drawing can also be found on my instagram with additional social found here: https://linktr.ee/malicemints_art The youtube playlist for the drawing and inking process can be found here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpMZhQlzPEpWzh630KabW98mJSf6_mYTD I used pigma micron on multimedia paper. Thanks for looking!
Various days for Inktober 2020. Coral, dizzy, and rip and dig. I had fun detailing different monsters. Dizzy is a cross between a siren and wraith, rip and dig can survive in extreme climates and hide underground for years until it's time to Fred.

My half of the art trade with OptimisticJerk (https://www.deviantart.com/optimisticjerk). The trade was to draw a monster as made up by your counterpart without seeing a reference image, based only on the description. Here is her half (which is awesome): www.deviantart.com/optimisticj…
For mine, I had to draw a monster called a "niter" based off of his description:
"Niters communicate in whispers. Nocturnal. Shy away from light. They’re black and oily and emanate a bluish glow. Large, looming 6 foot shadow things with massive hind legs, clawed for climbing trees and they have ‘maws’ instead of arms, claw-like appendages they stab people with and only one gaping blue eye. Their mouths open up and they swallow their victims whole."
What's funny is that I didn't see the fact that they emanate a bluish glow until now. So, the glow from the eye is purely by coincidence. Figuring out the hind legs of this creature was difficult, and so I sought reference images, and of all things, the koala turned out to be a pretty good reference.
For a while, there, it was looking like Carnage from Spiderman, but I toned down the reddish-hue a bit. The intention was to give the appearance of motor oil.
So, now to find out how badly I failed at drawing this...
This art trade was fun, though, and I would do a similar one, again. But I am le tired.
