Silksong: Complete Worth it

Native Los Angeles County Reptiles and Amphibians, as a cartoony field guide! This one was an absolute labor of love, and took a LOT of time and energy to create. Which one is ya'lls favorite? :] #asharts #art #illustration #reptiles #amphibians

Me playing Silksong rn

New month, new calendar pic! I think ive been bad about posting these... thanks @heartleafgames.bsky.social !! Art by @drakarts.bsky.social

*cries* a wasp dunked itself into my half-full glass of pineapple juice *glares at its suffering*

Page ten of The War Lords' Council! One I've been awaiting since pretty much from the start 'cuz now I get to introduce you all formally to Meroux! Also, have you pieced things together about the location yet?

Excited to finally announce I'll be vending at the Reptile Supershow in Anaheim next month! @riverbase.bsky.social will be joining me as well. Went ahead and made a bunch of brand new art to sell at the event, as well as figured out commissions. If you're going to go, come by and say hi!

*windows error sound*

Page nine of The War Lords' Council! Just sayin', Vo'Lec is soft and fuzzy where he's not plated with scales. Also, what's that thing?

Card set #2 is bein' prepped!

Hey Americans, if this passes you'll be uploading your ID to every social media and website to access it.

Hey guys! I wanted to share this short visual novel I helped make for a recently finished Game Jam called "Lethe". The theme was "Only One", and I produced the art. phaz90771.itch.io/lethe I'd appreciate if you took a couple minutes to check it out! It'll need to be downloaded on Windows to play.

Light update to the game this time! I had a whole subset of new cards initially planned but I'd been busy with a Game Jam for the whole back half of the month so I kept it focused on feedback Printable rules/card sheets/basic deck recipes available to $5+ Patrons! www.patreon.com/DrakArts

Did some three player Isra-Cards (there is no name yet lol) testing today. I'm content to say so far the consensus is it's fun and there were much strategic (also disastrous) shenanigans ensuing regularly!

after a very frustrating call with Visa (US+CAN), I was told that Visa would like inquiries relating to using their bargaining power to destroy adult media to be sent, via email, to [email protected] they asked. to be sent. emails. you know what to do.

Page eight of The War Lords' Council! Possibly time to start getting a sense of more things?

I've been very gradually gathering physical copies of the Digimon anime in lieu of increasing unreliability in availability and simultaneously increasing disdain for the English dub's historical billions of changes and edits, lol. Probably next month's budget allowance I'll use to nab Adventure tri

Once more but with gaming cards! You can probably full zoom and actually read the tentative effects and game rules on this Jump onto Patreon to if you support making this a proper thing (currently in alpha development)! Select printables are available to patrons @ www.patreon.com/c/DrakArts

Trading cards are now available in the shop! Nab yours to add to your collections here at: www.drak-arts.com

Y'know, a set of cards looks pretty nice all displayed in one's card binder, don't they? *wink wonk nudge shove* (Also lol I just slotted them in by ID, I didn't realize it'd make as aesthetically pleasing an organizational arrangement as it did and now I'm overthinking set #2) www.drak-arts.com

Apparently it was a browser issue blacking out my uploads. Weird. Stopped doing it after a restart.

(Round 3!) Been continuing on the gradual card game development. This month has featured the addition of Combatant Skills, Rules Updates and general tweaks to other cards as testing as continued on. Printable rules/card sheets/basic deck recipes available to $5+ Patrons! www.patreon.com/DrakArts

Page seven of The War Lords' Council! See? Not *everyone* likes to sass. Though maybe they're just not yet used to the dynamics. Maybe they're too green?

Here's the second comm I got; Stratus by @itsjesthomas.bsky.social!

Apparently haven't added this one that became my pfp about a year ago of the "Thunder Twins", Vo'Lec and Ni'Lec

Old sketch from some years back: a few of the Grand Lunarken One who you definitely all know by now, another you've been introduced to for all of a moment on a certain page, and others whose time in the sun are a long ways away and are too young to be active during this arc of the comic's events.

So I 1000% forgot over time to share a number of things from the times of being more active on Twitter and disastrously I think I forgot to even share a rare couple comms I acquired that I was dead certain I had up here. So here's one for today, Vo'Lec, by @itsjesthomas.bsky.social!

comics take a long time to draw. no, but really. if artists were paid an hourly rate it would explode the brains of most people both out AND in/adjacent to the field

It's always an open question to be fair, lol

I diiiid it, finally #YGOMasterDuel

Well it's basically only been a week and exploration has continued to crystallize more. At this point I'd call it maybe not 'pretty' but at base, functional. At this point, I'm making these pre-alpha stage cards/rules available to $5+ Patrons to try out! www.patreon.com/DrakArts

I've also liked the idea of field cards (think YGO's Field Spells) to implement slightly tweaked rules in a round. The more fun part has been translating the in-universe aspects of the locations in the comic to card effects. (The less* fun part is if I wanna make more, I gotta... work more...)

For the sake of early playtesting and psychic abilities not being a thing, I printed some basic playing copies of the trading cards with initial stats on them. Eventually as I explore more, I'll make things more elegant, but I also want to design individual skills. I've already had some fun ideas.

Page six of The War Lords' Council! Well clearly there's some manner of policy with how these guys handle stuff; tho maybe not the same among everyone?
