Baby dragons in flight! 🐉 Really love how this one came out, I had a lot of fun designing for a theoretical wraparound book cover. #illustration #art #fantasy

Happy Pride :3 #pride #blacksails

Some barely visible signage from the back of an illustration I've been working on

Hi the Redwall wiki told me the shrews were inspired by Liverpool dock workers

I still have commissions open on Vgen for character illustrations and character designs. They're an absolute bargain for how much thought and work I put in! Vgen.co/cesiousblue #vgen #commissions #Characterdesign

This is the Scott the people deserve.

Hey, consider picking up a character illustration or design by the end of this month! (If I pick up one more vgen comm this month I get to be "verified" which bumps me up is search results there and all sorts of nice things, so I'd def appreciate it!) #vgen #characterdesign #illustration

Looks promising!

I finished it :3 A last minute entry to Folio's annual illustration competition, this time for a passage from Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go #art #illustration

Me: This art absolutely needs to be done today Also me: What if I drew wicker furniture

This one was fun to bring to life! Def go give it a read (for free!) on Edwards Patreon. This also appears in a collection of comics that's up on Kickstarter soon: www.kickstarter.com/projects/nya...

cool!

Real ones will recognize the belt reference I'm stealing here

My answer for this would be a poetry anthology. I genuinely think the world would benefit from more people learning to think about, love, and unpack poetic language. Years ago I had Best Remembered Poems by Martin Gardner and it's full of accessible poems, though I think it's out of print now.

Check out this sick-ass spider lady that I did as a Vgen Commission! I had a great time designing her and her spell-focus pendulum. Let me design YOUR cool OC/TTRPG character: vgen.co/CesiousBlue #illustration #characterdesign #vgen #commission

This is genuinely why I'm still on Tumblr. The occassional polite comment is always appreciated, but nothing beats a fully feral tumblr tag like "YESSSSSSSSS" or "ohhhhkay. okay okay. RUAHG" or "I MOTHERFUCKIGN UGLY LAUGEHD" (all ones i just copied verbatim from my tumblr art posts)

Here's a thread of art from my swiss folk horror comic, La Chèta, made for DSTLRY's Come Find Me anthology. La Chèta roughly translates to the witches sabbath, but specifically the procession of damned souls to it. Swiss mountainfolk believed anyone who saw it suffered terrible consequences.

Somehow I was able to finish this reference sheet on #webcomicday This is Younis from my (hopefully) upcoming comic Sound of Heart and Mind or #SoHaM for short. He is a bubbly and nerdy magical guide who is trying his best despite not being ready for anything ever.

My new Kickstarter project that will follow all of the new rules:

Another #MarchToCamelot for the prompt "enemy" Lancelot and Gawain are best friends in a lot of stories. After the fracture of Camelot, Lancelot kills Gawain's brothers and Gawain vows revenge. They fight and Lancelot injures Gawain but refuses to kill his friend. #arthuriana #art #illustration

Recent Vgen character design commission! 🌠 The commissioner wanted a butch ocean-lady that would fit into a fantasy universe with Napoleonic/age of sail officer vibes. You can get your own #oc or #characterdesign over at my Vgen: vgen.co/CesiousBlue

✨ #PorfolioDay once more! ✨ I'm Jack, I'm an illustrator in TTRPGs and Comics. I love vibrant colors and big emotions. I've recently been doing a lot of mythology focused art! I'd love to do more covers! 💼 cesious.blue 💌[email protected] comms: vgen.co/CesiousBlue #illustration #art #ttrpg

I backed this! Not much time left on the Kickstarter and they still need help reaching their goal!

Started a new sketchbook today. Interior pages are pink so im gonna try different color pens as much as i can.

Come get your resources, photo ref, tutorials, and more! 📣

Piggybacking off of this, if you can fill this year’s survey out, it would really be helpful. The industry has already created a system where creators can barely survive and lack of communication about rates really helps them more than us. bsky.app/profile/cart...

Saw The Wizard of the Kremlin tonight at a mystery showing and it was absolutely the worst movie I've seen so far this year. letterboxd.com/cesiousblue/...

Sharing my only #StarWars art for May the Fourth: This piece I did for a Star Wars swimsuit charity zine a few years back of trans Poe Dameron chilling at the beach.

Tried to do the "15 best TV shows, gut instinct" meme but there are too many shows that I love.

Spent the last month too busy to art, so now I'm doing MANY SKETCHES Playing around with ideas for wraparound book cover illustrations. By default I tend to think vertically so I wanted to try some more landscape compositions! #illustration #bookcovers #art

Hell Yeah! May Day is coming up, signing this is a great action to take to support some folks in the increasingly dicey publishing industry.

Strange crowded bookstore with variable hours where you wander in, find a book that changes your life irreparably, and then get lost in a random back room.

I am currently open for work! Id love to do your indie interiors or covers, or art for your newest project! [email protected] to say hi!

English French, the new-years detective, is an important edition to the detective fiction corpus. More importantly, i need everyone who listened to this to know that Giovanni Piranesi, famed 18th c artist, owned 86 full-size (TEN STORY TALL) plaster reproductions of Trajan's Column. EIGHTY-SIX

Today doing my canvassing job I talked to a woman a while and convinced her to sign the petition, after which she shoved an enormous chocolate bar at me and left too quickly for me to give it back. Which sounds like a fake thing that happened but-

Bumping the F@tt fanart thread since I added on my 2025 Secret Samol ✨

Look at my wonderful Secret Samol surprise from the Friends at the Table gift exchange! Featuring Sokrates and Integrity from the COUNTER/Weight season. Because I am nothing if not consistent in my requests 😅 Go give some love to Zeedee about it, it's so good 💚
