Happy new year! Sorry I always forget to update over here. I'm at least making a resolution to be more diligent and mindful with my practice, so I will hopefully be keeping you updated with sketches over the course of the year. 🫡

@orc-enk.bsky.social was commissioned by my fiance of this AMAZING art of my avatar with my two bunnies and when I tell you I burst into actual tears from happiness, it's so perfect ;.; ❤️

Finally opening up for commissions. If you're interested, please send a DM so we can discuss further!

Hey guys. Sorry to have vanished in the middle of Orctober (and given up on the daily uploads), but I've been busy. Just moved out to a new apartment, but I'm short on work hours so I may open commissions. The pricing sheet isn't ready yet, but if any of you would be interested, give me a shout!

I have to pay some attention to him as well.

One of my fave drawings I have of him. #enkdraws

Will probably need a color ref for this man. #enkdraws

I have more OCs, I swear. Here's a wise, stone-faced fellow. #enkdraws

Drawing by sculpting crude shapes is something I gotta do more often tbh. It's a good reminder that there's no such thing as an unusable sketch, and that it's always possible to refine and polish it into something passable. 👍

Ready to try this once more, I guess. Hi, here's some art of a couple characters for a project I've been working on. Will probably be posting a lot of them! #orc

THE FIGHTER. #enkdraws

The berserker. #orc

The warlock. #orc

Was reminded earlier of an orc in a baseball shirt I drew some time ago, so have another one. #enkdraws #orc

TRUST THE FIRE IN YOUR GUT. IT BURNS BRIGHTER THAN ANY STAR! #enkdraws #orc

The Card Mines demand MORE. #enkdraws

Whoops, sorry, got carried away drawing something personal so I do *not* actually have anything to post today lol. Might just reshare some older stuff on here, since there's been a lot of people joining who might not have seen it all!

Yeah I liked the funny bug game a lot. #enkdraws

Been waiting to post this one since October of last year, since I gave him a slight redesign. Need to buckle down and draw something else in this style before the end of the month! #enkdraws #orc #orctober

Was doodling while listening to a video about the new Final Fantasy Tactics remaster, I guess this snuck up on me while I was distracted. #enkdraws

Determined to have something to post every day this month. If not completed art, at least a doodle or proof of practice.

Gonna start annotating things that grabbed my attention whenever I do my studies, in order to keep my tiny goldfish brain from forgetting about them next time I pick up my pen.

I promise this isn't a tobyslop account now, I just wanted to participate. New stuff this month, I promise.

Anyone here remember Wander Over Yonder? Used to be into this show hard. Still love this goofy little spoon alien man. Art by @orc-enk.bsky.social, if you like orcs follow him! #art #wanderoveryonder #disney

Fell off the saddle from the one-two punch of getting a new job + Silksong dropping. Gonna try to get back on it, for now, here's some two-minute sketches I made today.

Bro they're drawing Boykisser right in the middle of the only road leading out of town.

Bad thing about Krita: working with text boxes genuinely sucks a lot of ass. It's not just me not being used to it, reopening a text box or fiddling with certain settings can just completely undo all the work you did since last time you opened it for no good reason. Unfortunate.

I unironically think this is where we're going.

I've been meaning to follow through on that determination for the longest time but I always end up putting it off. Maybe this should be the year I finally honor it.

Sixth (and maybe final?) attack of the year, for @squidpizza.art. Scary but fuzzy bat man, in pixel art flavor. #enkdraws #artfight artfight.net/~OrcEnk

Next artfight attack might be the last one, got several complicated pieces I want to do for August and a temp job starting in a couple weeks so I need to get on them soon. It's been fun though, will try to join again next year!

Revenge for @orc-enk.bsky.social !! I like the gesture on that one. #artfight #artfight2025 #teamFossils

Got a chibi Berserker from @captainbobbin.bsky.social, so here's another one in return! #artfight #enkdraws artfight.net/~OrcEnk

Attack #15 - Another big mass attack! - @liosalemicart.bsky.social @gungravegore.bsky.social @hi-skitty.bsky.social @p0la-ris.bsky.social @confusedgnawer.bsky.social @charcoeurl.bsky.social @montesmith.bsky.social @orc-enk.bsky.social @tiger-prawn.bsky.social ceredon razz0 octoqi + wearywere

Fourth attack of the year, revenge on @sacroix.bsky.social for some nice art of my lads. Going outside my comfort zone with this one, but I thought it'd fit the character pretty well! #artfight #enkdraws artfight.net/~OrcEnk

Third attack of the year, of @jovithor.bsky.social's lad Dennis. I love how expressive he always looks so I went a bit toonier with him. #artfight artfight.net/~OrcEnk

Colored this ‘cause why not… for @orc-enk.bsky.social #art #orc

Wrist finally back to normal, I think? Time to get back to regular practice, here's some two-minute figure sketches.

Second attack of the year, for @gurlu.bsky.social. Cool shapeshifting noir oni, right up my alley, had to give him a shot! artfight.net/~OrcEnk

First attack (of many, hopefully) for this year's Artfight. Character by @sacroix.bsky.social!

Man, I just had an absolute hell week. Family emergencies and a strained wrist, haven't had the chance to get started on artfight, will start going hard on it this weekend.

I guess Fossils suit my vibes the best. Anyway, if you're participating, come at me! artfight.net/~OrcEnk

Will probably need a color ref for this man. #enkdraws

Been kind of overwhelmed with IRL stuff lately but I've been thinking about joining ArtFight next month. Might be fun to network with other artists and draw OCs.

Oh no wtf it turns out Krita's brushes are actually pretty fun to mess around with. I'm not sure I have it in me to pick up a new drawing program now ;_;

Haven't uploaded daily practice in a few days but rest assured I'm not slacking, I've bought a drawing pad to practice in pencil and paper. I kinda want to have a showcase of my progress in physical media and it's going well so far!

Finally, the gifts and art I've bought from @orc-enk.bsky.social. I've always loved the Gardevoir pics he gave me last year and the year prior
