Meet Bingo! Bingo is an energetic happy-go-lucky performer who likes to have fun! Chaos and laughter is the goal and will achieve these by any means necessary ;3 Or just Bingo. Up to you!

Huge thank you to @haniiboota.bsky.social for commissioning me to illustrate her dnd character for my campaign, Adarna in both her forms! I had a lot of fun working on this! #VGenComm

fter a little bit of line work on stream yesterday and a bit of colour while I've been ill today, my entry for @NecromataVT's outfit contest is ready! I hope this design is liked by others just as much as I like it!

Meet Souffle! Souffle is freshly 100 years old who had a mid- life existential crisis and wanted to go on a journey! She is kind and not the best with the most adventurous! But she is trying her best!

Meet Heizen! He always wanted to be a wizard. Unfortunately, like his emotions, his career path is wildly unstable—so warlock it is. His patron? A cat. Nine lives deep, musket in hand, and yes... at least one life lost to a rogue fireball. Probably two. Possibly three.

Meet Wilde, a real unlucky fella. Wilde isn’t the strongest, he’s a sorcerer who has to use magic in creative ways to compare to others. No fireballs or lightning, instead he’s using utility spells for most things! Like freezing Heizen's drink!

Meet Mal! Malzorin or better know as Mal, is a kind heart and soul, with a wide sense for adventure and to spread kindness unto others he seeks to make the world a more kinder place, that is if he doesn't stop trying to turn his story into a romance novel.

Now that my dnd campaign Flight of the Fire Keeper has begun, keep those eyes peeled for some close ups on each character! I hope you guys will love them as much as I do!

NEW MODEL SHOWCASE IS OUT!!! Make sure to check out my latest rig and to support my latest vbaby @sinkitten-art.bsky.social who so graciously let me work on her model! youtu.be/olf68dhaMNw?...

Ladies and Gentle-people, I would like to introduce this lovely little lady now available for adoption on my Vgen shop! You can find her here: vgen.co/yukikoyamada... She is one of a kind and will not be returning once sold. (This design also comes with a discount on my vtuber comm services!)

Get to know my Vtuber! This is Kiko, and she's just your resident cyberpunky elf girl who lives her best life in the megacity! If you love art, games and chill cozy aussie vibes pop over to www.twitch.tv/yukikoyamada1 and hang out with me! I look forward to having you!

Funguary Day 22 - Dewdrop Bonnet! We're on the final stretch... only 7 more designs to go! I plan to finish posting them this week so that I can get back to sharing my regularly scheduled content... plus some super exciting business I can't wait to get to!👀

#funguary Day 21 - Puffball! I wanted this one to feel as soft and round as it's name! Here she is, all fluffy and puffy like a big puffball mushroom!

#funguary Day 20 - Amethyst Deceiver! I'm just loving the punchy colours in this one! They were inspired by the vibrant purple colour of the actual mushroom and I think it turned out great!

#funguary Day 19 - Black Trumpet Mushroom! This one was refreshing to work on since her design is relatively simple. The idea for her dress and colour scheme came directly from the shape and colour of the mushroom itself. I love the simplicity of this one!

#funguary Day 18 - Inky Cap Mushroom! this one felt so witchy to me so I took that idea and ran with it! I felt that using black and greys would be a bit boring for the darker parts so I used a dark purple that made her pop against the background!

Funguary Day 17 - Dotted Stem Bolete! This one looked so comfy and cozy to me, so I did my best to reflect that in my design. My favourite part is how her hair and jumper reflects reflects the cap and stem of the mushroom! I wonder if this one would taste as cozy as it looks...

#funguary Day 16 - Enoki Mushrooms! I found it really hard to come up with the concept for this one. None of my ideas were sticking! Eventually I landed on this design which I put a fantasy spin on 1950's fashion influences and finger waves. I struggled a lot, but I'm pleased with the result!

#funguary Day 15 - Black Velvet Mushroom! when I saw the soft fuzzy top of this one I knew that a more gothic look would be a good direction to take this design. I really love how the transparent effect of her blouse turned out. So I'm really happy with the final result!

#funguary Day 14 - Bleeding Tooth Fungus! This one is another strange mushroom, but it reminded me of strawberries and cream or boba. Working on this design was a bit of a twisty journey, but I got there in the end. This marks the end of the 'demonic' section, so now its the 'edible' mushrooms!

#funguary Day 13 - Lilac Bonnet! I totally had to go with something inspired by lolita fashion for this one! It's pink, and has 'bonnet' in the name so it was just PERFECT no? There's only one more day for this section so I'm really looking forward to the next one!

#funguary Day 12 - Dead Man's Fingers! This mushroom is so creepy that I tried my best to replicate the feeling it gives me. There's just something so uncomfy about lots of things that look like fingers but aren't fingers!

#funguary Day 11 - Bird's Nest Fungus! This one was super fun to work on, and despite some hiccups in the colouring process, she turned out great! I think the actual mushroom is really weird though because each little grey bit is a full mushroom underneath! It's crazy!

#funguary Day 10 - Destroying Angel! I had a lot of fun with this one, especially in trying to capture a 'fallen angel' effect to contrast the Angel Wings Mushroom from last week. I think it turned out great and really invokes the feeling of the mushroom itself!

#funguary Day 9 - Silver Leaf Fungus! This one looked so velvety and almost like filigree that I had to do something with that. And so, this regal mushroom came to be! I definitely need more practice with darker skin tones, but this one might be my best try so far!

#funguary Day 8 - Satan's Bolete! I just had to draw a little devil lady for this one! I'm really happy with how she turned out. She's just so pretty, don't you think?

#funguary Day 7 - Penicillin! When I saw the way penicillin actually looked, my first though was of vitiligo and space buns. So that's what I did! I challenged myself with this one, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out in the end.

#funguary Day 6 - Angel Wings Fungus! This one deviated a bit more from the reference than I intended, but I'm still really pleased with the result! This one makes me really excited to see what I can come up with for the Destroying Angel mushroom next week.

#Funguary Day 5 - Filoboletus Manipularis! I love the glow of these mushrooms, they're just so cute! Tbh I really struggled with this piece and I think it shows, however that's the nature of art. Like in life, not everything will turn out the way you want it to, so the best thing to do is move on!

#Funguary Day 4 - Cystolepiota! The way this mushroom looked almost like fur or snowflakes reminded me so much of fluffy fur winter coats! This is one of the best so far, don't you think?

#Funguary Day 3 - Turkey Tail Mushroom! The idea for this one's dress came to me as soon as I saw the stripes on the actual mushroom! I'm very pleased with the final outcome of this piece, though perhaps I will darken the background a little more later.

#funguary Day 2 - Lilac Coral Fungus! It was a challenge to come up with an idea for this one, but it was super fun to work on, and I'm particularly proud of the glow effect I managed to achieve with my markers! I'm really pleased with the result. Don't you think she turned out great?

#Funguary Day 1 - Mycena Subcyanophala! I'm a little behind but this challenge hosted by @Feefal over on Instagram looked like so much fun that I couldn't miss it, even if I started late! I'm really happy with how this turned out! I think she is so pretty!

Bluesky is open, so I came to check it out. Let me start simple, I'm YukikoYamada1, and I sketch OCs in my silly little sketchbook. Sometimes there's fanart too, but no matter what, art is what I live for. I hope I can make some people smile with my drawings, that always makes me happy too!
