I'm Stellar. Artist/author of the New Gods web serial "Red Shift". I also make Alton Towers art, specifically for the rollercoaster the Smiler. I love dark, industrial, + science fiction themes.

A digital painting of a red cyberpunk landscape. A tornado rages in the distance and lightning strikes furiously. A digital semi-realism painting of a silver skinned horned woman with long, flowing dark red/purple hair. Her eyes are closed. She is in side profile, looking towards the sky. She has on a dress made of lava. There is a glowing orange and green cityscape behind her, crackling with fire and embers. A digital semi-realism painting of a woman with short, curly blonde hair done in a 50s pinup look. She has on green lipstick and her eyes are black with orange swirls. She has on a lab coat with a black/yellow corset on underneath. She sits at a desk with a syringe and other beakers filled with colourful liquids. A notebook is open with a smile scribbled into it. The background is black and repeatedly says "JOIN US NOW. SMILE ALWAYS. HA. HA. HA." A traditional ink drawing of two women within a abstract circle. One woman grabs her head while the other reaches towards her with a devious smile. Both women are "crying" black lightning. The entire drawing is filled with abstract patterns of chess boards, arrows, an alien language, etc.

(WIP) I told my brother when you get Marmalized by the Smiler that you immediately get a cool manga hairstyle and he asked "what happens if you're bald" so, like... you instantly spawn a cool hat. Also, I'm so happy with this drawing thus far! Her smile... ♡ 🌀 #ocsky #altontowers

(WIP) Stellar of Apokolips! One of the major characters of my ongoing New Gods web serial “Red Shift” (same lady that’s in my avatar). She is an Apokoliptian astronomer looking for exoplanets for her world’s military to conquer. She begins to question this halfway through the first book. Ω #ocsky
A digital semi-realism WIP of a woman with purple hair, red eyes, silver skin, and silver horns. She has a few extra eyes and there is text to her left that reads "Greetings! I am Stellar of Apokolips. My mission is to seek out exoplanets for my world's military."

“CORRECTED” (She wouldn’t leave my mind so I had to do a sketch of my Smiling Advocate! I’ll do a proper reference sheet for her later on.) 🌀 #ocsky #altontowers
A digital semi-realism drawing of a young woman with long purple hair and swirls in her eyes. She is wearing a black and yellow skintight suit with a smile on the right side of her chest. She is looking towards the sky and laughing uncontrollably.

(WIP) I'm really enjoying drawing Galactica! I've designed him to be a very shiny boi. ♡ #ocsky
A digital semi-realism WIP of a man with ice blue hair. His bangs cover his left eye and his non-covered eye is also ice blue. He is wearing robes and a glowing headpiece. There is text to his left that reads "Don't worry, Rita! We'll figure out how to take down the Ministry of Joy."

(WIP) Today I'm gonna be working more on my [REDACTED] Smiling Advocate sketch and Galactica's full body reference art for "Velocity of Sound". I ended up giving him cool, flowing robes as an homage to "Star Wars" since I'm a fan. ♡ #ocsky

(WIP) See, being Marmalised isn't scary! [REDACTED] seems to be doing just fine. Well, the Smiler is happy with her anyways... 🌀 (This is indeed the same lady from my last painting... after she's been Corrected. This is the form Rita will meet her in.) #altontowers

(OC) ("Let's Begin") Another painting I finished for my Alton Towers story "Velocity of Sound"! The Smiler (blonde lady) is a corrupt biologist looking to condense joy into a single serum. Here she is depicted with the woman who she will transform into her first Smiling Advocate, [REDACTED]. 🌀
A digital semi-realism painting of a woman with short curly blonde hair and black eyes with orange/yellow swirls in them gripping the face of another woman with blue eyes and purple hair. The blonde woman has on a white lab coat with a smile stitched onto it. She is wearing a black and yellow top underneath it. The second woman has a single tear rolling down her face. A surgical light is shining on both of them and a hazy medical room is the background. You can just barely make out a distorted smile on a screen and warning symbols on another.

(OC) I finally finished the full body for how Oblivion appears in my story "Velocity of Sound". She is the Smiler's girlfriend and a sentient portal between dimensions. The actual rollercoaster she is based off of was the first dive coaster in the world! It drops you 180 feet into pitch darkness. ♡
A digital semi-realism drawing of a silver skinned woman with extremely long orange/yellow/red hair reaching her feet. Her hair is turning into downward facing arrows. She has a glowing red eye and the left eye is covered by her hair. She has on black shorts and a black bikini top with a glowing red symbol on the center of her chest shaped like an oval + downward arrow. Colourful energy crackles beneath her and winds around her body. On her left are the words "DON'T LOOK DOWN" while on her right is the logo for the actual rollercoaster she is based on (Oblivion).

(OC) Just a sketch I did of my Smiler OC in my sketchbook while watching Minecraft ARGs the other day. Cleaned it up in Clip Studio Paint. I have yet to draw her *not* with something sharp in her hand. I should draw her chilling out with a coffee or something. 😵‍💫 #altontowers
A traditional ink drawing of a woman with short curly hair with swirls in her eyes. She has a mask on that looks like a radiation symbol and holds a scalpel in her left hand.

(OC) Rita: The Queen of Speed! And the arch nemesis of the deranged biologist, the Smiler. Rita wants *you* to join the fight in helping take down the Ministry of Joy! #rollercoasteroc #altontowers 🏁
A digital semi-realism painting of a woman with red and green hair in twin buns. She is wearing an orange, red, and green racing suit with a flame pattern going up the arms and legs. She is holding a checkered racing flag and flames erupt from her left shoe, right knee, right hand, and the top of her flag. The actual rollercoaster she based upon is drawn behind her along with the actual coaster logo.

I am eviscerated in the best way possible right now! I did it... I animated it. This is the opening video for my Alton Towers universe "Velocity of Sound". The art is by me, photography + video of Alton Towers by me, and the song is "Starfly" by she. ♡ #altontowers

(WIP) As I've been writing the prologue for "Velocity of Sound", I've had this painting idea stuck in my head of the Smiler about to create the first Advocate, [REDACTED]. Her backstory isn't told right away but you do get to meet her almost immediately as she's the first employee Rita encounters. 🌀

The second woman has a single tear rolling down her face. There is text above the purple haired woman that reads "Make me happy forevermore".
