Mystic Cavern
It is said that the water in this cavern can either cleanse your soul or implement a severe vindication, but no one knows for sure. Perhaps it is the intent of this trigger-happy, triggerfish-toting pixie to find out via her hostage test subject. By the paranoid concentration in her eyes as she guards the sacred bridge, she hopes no one else stumbles upon this mystery at the same time.
Reese Don't Do Topless
Reese, from Amy K. Cyrway's Apocrypha universe, is a level-headed, intellectual sort of woman who helps pay her tuition by working at Dakota's, a western-style tavern where the helpings are generous, there's stupid crap on the walls, and the wait staff just screams for a swimsuit calendar. But Reese doesn't go for that; she finds such notions crass as she sips her Earl Grey— and then she met me. But it's all good because it's for the sake of art.
Pier Six Brawl
When angels get mad, the city gets quite a show! Like rival kaijus, they take it to the waterfront where all the creepy abandoned factories are. I guess it's better than inside the local Domo Doughnuts. Anyway, Belial, the redhead kissing pavement, had the upper hand just minutes ago and then started monologuing which, of course, left him wide open for an Omnislash by Asbeel. That's just a snippet; if you want to know more, read the book! The Apocrypha universe is a creation of Amy K. Cyrway and Jen De Salme.
Best of Friends
Daisy often enjoyed talking to that strange green fellow from the watery glass box. One night she felt lonely, so she invited her new friend to keep her company on the comfy bed. The fish is based on one of my beloved pets from the past: Chromie, a chromide cichlid whom I had kept for five years and grew so large that no other fish could be kept with him. Hmm, why is it that dogs are adopted but fish are bought?
Goody Basket
Bluette's holiday series continues with Easter. She's one hot chick who just can't keep her eggs hidden. Celest is proud to role-play the most horny member of the animal kingdom, and Centura plays the part of gentle, kindhearted Eostre, the apparent goddess of springtime, bunnies, and eggs. Eyes— oh, the sugar rush!
Squibltt
The squibltt inhabits the wasteland, making abandoned junk its home. Not much is known about the purpose of the squibltt's giant tusk, or even how it eats since it lacks a lower jaw. Some reports state that its mollusk-like appendage acts as a root that feeds off of rust from whichever derelict shell it calls its territory. This little guy makes an appearance in Heavy Metal Valkyrie, but much of this drawing was "scrapped" with Valkyrie's composition change.
Heavy Metal Valkyrie
Model of mayhem Amber Lee Ann Johnson stars in this fantastic image based on one of her favorite movies, Heavy Metal. Transforming her motorcycle into a metallic dragon seemed appropriate enough. Maybe the green glow means it's Loc-Nar powered!
Uncharted Realms
Imagine the sailors' surprise upon discovering this never-before explored peninsula in the midst of the roaring storm. However, their arrival awakened the foul-tempered denizen of this mysterious land. Groggy and unamused she towers above the sand; her scythe igniting with flame sends a message to her visitors. (The gigantic structure in the background is actually a cross between a Bagger 288 and an amusement park octopus.)
WTF?
Just as the title states. Every Bushido fashion warrior knows that the foundation to looking and feeling tip-top is to stay fresh and dry. Character Float is a creation of Raocow. Follow the link or don't ask.
S-Cup X
Wielding that plastic toy gun, Bluette is right on target with the fanboys. Do suction cup darts and Velcro balls count as clothing?
Bumper Bird
Memorial weekend, the kickoff to summer, inspired this image. With my art supplies, a bar called Liberal Cup, a couple of hours to kill, and a few pints, this turned out to be a cool live performance.
Magic Alone Won't Stop Tooth Decay
I don't know what these magical girls do for a living, but I bet they do the same mundane morning rituals as the rest of us. Magical Girl J, left, is a character of Tozoku.
For That Foxxy Feeling
"Look at me. Sadly your woman isn't me, but with Alembic Grimoire shaving fluff she can be lustrous like me. Now look: we're on a boat watching a manta with a hand growing out of its head. In my hand: it's forty ounces of that drink you like. Look again: it's the remote to the TV. Anything is possible when your woman feels like a woman and not a hairy beast. I'm on a mechanical bull."
No Time For Ladders
Monster extermination can be a dangerous racket for sure— especially when the nuisance doesn't want to leave the premises. Apparently plan A didn't go so smoothly, and a chase ensued, which they're taking outside— the hard way!
The Pits
Even ogres practice hygiene in their own warped ways. He must be going out for a night on the town, although his clan mates find his brand of deodorant rather feminine.
Tortureland Funpark
What would a playground for demons look like? Probably like this, complete with undead spring rides and a sawblade in the middle of the slide, YEAH! This torture chamber lacks the traditional pendulum, but the succubus, wearing axe-blade anklets, improvises with a killer swing slash. Note the blood splattered over the "lens".
Red Light Reunion
An otherworldly possession took place in which the victim's body parts went on separate vacations. Tainted with the mannerisms of a spider, an animated rib cage builds a web out of stringy gore. Drawn with Prismacolors.
Red Night Reunion
Moonlit darkness adds a whole new degree of creepiness to Red Light Reunion. Like the cemetery, it's the same thing, only darker.
Aya
I've been on a Parasite Eve 2 kick lately. Aya Brea has always been one of my favorite video game characters; it's surprising it's taken me this long to draw a picture of her— ten years since owning the game. She's taking aim rather passionately but it appears all the monsters are behind her— sort of like the way I used to play!
Succubus Bluette
She's not a fan of World of Warcraft, but far be it for Bluette to pass up an opportunity to strip naked and role-play as a demon temptress. She is the second of the Succubus series, taking advantage of the stir that Centura caused.
