It's true that summer is now behind us in the Northern Hemisphere there's still some warm days in front of us. So sitting by pool and enjoying some ice cream can seem like a good thing.
This is patron reward for James Birdsall. The bunny girl is their OC Chandra who I've drawn several times before. Link 2022-09-26 21:14:55 +0000 UTC View Post

The dwarf woke to the sound of movement within the inn room he'd rented. Slowly opening his eyes he searched for the source of the sound. His gaze settled on the female orc who he'd met last night. She was in the process of fastening a garter to one of her hoses. As lucidity returned to the dwarf he realized he'd never gotten the orc's name.
"Ye heading out?" He asked with a hoarse voice.
The orc looked up from her task and stared at the dwarf with her one good eye...

The third drawing I started during my most recent Picarto stream. The theme was pirates and this was a request for Pirate Spike and Rarity.
I imagine this image happening years later when Twilight had taken over the kingdom and Spike has grown up to be an advisor for her highness. The scene occurs during a costume gala at the palace. It's a very spontaneous, off the cuff photo taken of the two. Which of course will s...

Sweetie Belle stopped her friends just outside the school gymnasium. In her most commanding, but still adorable, voice she addressed her fellow CMC members.
"Girls! I have it on good authority. Meaning Rarity. That half of making an outfit successful is your attitude! Tonight we're space pirates! Right?!
"Arr!" Scootaloo and Applebloom growled in unison.
Sweetie continued. "So! We're not just going to the ...

The first drawing I started during last night's Picarto stream. The theme was pirates since Talk Like a Pirate Day is Monday 9/19. Link
Individuals who've engaged in piracy have existed since ancient times and they continue to exist in the modern day. The anime Black Lagoon deals with modern day pirates and smugglers in Southeast Asia.2022-09-18 20:53:08 +0000 UTC View Post

Skyfall dropped the last .455 cartridge into the cylinder then she closed it and raised the revolver and pulled the trigger. Nothing happened and the unicorn reminded herself that this particular revolver was single action only. She lowered pistol and with her free hand she thumbed the hammer back.
Much to her annoyance the revolver failed to fire again. It was then she remembered that unlike many revolvers this one actually had a manual safety. Muttering under her breath she thumbed it off. 2022-09-16 23:45:42 +0000 UTC View Post

A moment from my Anthro MLP dreamscape. The Great and Powerful Trixie is not only a talented stage magician, she's also an adept musician. Sax player to be specific. She' been thinking of ways to incorporate it into her performances. Starlight seems to think this would be a good idea.
FYI. For folks who are curious, these are a couple of pieces of music kind that kind capture the feel of the Trixie playing. One is from Dire Straits.2022-09-15 23:43:29 +0000 UTC View Post

It was after midnight when Rarity woke up in my Royal Equestria Security Force (RESF) dreamscape. Unfortunately even being half awake Rarity was familiar with what was going on.
Her and Coco were lying in bed together. Coco was pressed close against Rarity's chest; the earth pony's muzzle was buried into her breasts. Under most circumstances this would be an adorable, intimate moment, but Rarity could feel the mare's shivering and the rapid muscles twitches. Coco's breath was short and rapid.

Hello there. I figured I'd take a moment and give folks an update on condition.
I am doing significantly better now. I have almost no more symptoms. Just a bit tiredness and that's probably as much due to the blast furnace temperatures we've had over the last few days in row. 103, 110, 100, and today it's supposes to be 100+. Fortunately tomorrow we're suppose to finally get a break, and next week is in the mid 70's
So for the most part I've been resting, not even drawing, and...

After dodging the bullet for more than 2 years I’ve tested positive for COVID. Yesterday was Day Zero for me. I think I have already gotten through the worst of it. I just wish it wasn’t so hot where we are at moment. We hit 105f here today.
So I am going to be a bit slow posting for a while until I work through this I might post something tomorrow. For any of my followers in the Western United States stay cool and hydrated

A few years ago several people commented that they felt that some of my grimdark work had a vibe or feel rather like the video game Bloodborne.
I have never played the game, but I've watched some YouTube videos on the game, and yeah I can see where they're coming from. Especially some of the costuming the characters wear and some of the eldritch creatures that inhabit the world. So I thought it would be amusing to do som...
