This woman appeared in my dream, and I was so captivated I woke up and immediately doodled her. I have no clue who she is, but I'm obsessed

Digitized one of the sketches, and of COURSE it was of Sp3ct3r.
#digitalart #originalcharacter #dreamcharacter #myart #gimp #mouseart

At the very least, I did a digitized version of Sp3ct3r's reference. 'Cause why not? He was usually this blue-green color, but he could change his hues whenever he wished. He has a big gut, but he feeds off of little bug like creatures called Bytes in the dream.
He's typically very cheerful and protective of Emmie, but is upset very easily. He cried a lot when Polly tries t kidnap him in the dream, because he felt so betrayed.

Reddit post in r/dreams: Hello,
Last night I had a dream and I only remember fragments from it but at some point a dream character showed me these and similar symbols and complex formations made out of them, also some others but I only remember these. There was a dreamcharacter pointing at them with the messarn that those are important "sacred" symbols belonging to a holy language.
The picture associated with the post shows four symbols that depict cryptic looking squares

D-Raffe and Polly have arrived!
#digitalart #originalcharacter #dreamcharacter #myart #gimp #mouseart

D-Raffe, the angular giraffe. He always took on this look like he was cel-animated. Yet that seemed to fit his personality as a very kind teacher who had answers for practically every question. Emmie and Sp3ct3r sometimes rode on his back to get farther when searching gor the antivirus that Polly desperately needed in the dream.

The polygonal Polly. The tragedy of Polly in the dream is that her curiosity got the better of her, thus prompting her to explore uncharted territory and get herself infected as a result. This virus made Polly believe that she was being threatened by D-Raffe and Sp3ct3r. In trying ti infect him, D-Raffe scarcely escapes, while Polly could not find Sp3ct3r anywhere. Emmie does stop her with the antivirus that completely reset her mind.

Three Koopas and a dragon that came from my dreams many years ago.

#koopa #originalspecies #nintendo #koopaoc #dreamcharacter #dragon #dragonoc #dragondesign

This was when I wanted to make a new one who is not on either Mario or Bowser side. Asriel is one of Chibi's rivals. Asriel the Rouge Knight aka The Destroyer of Wishes is a fierce warrior from the unknown. With his meteor staff on his side, he not only summons meteor showers but can eliminate all stars and wishes.

(He is going to be heavily revised, so with his background that he came from an extinct kingdom)

Balthazar Koopa, Keeper of the Forest. Balthazar may look like a typical hermet, but he is always accompanied by various forest animals such as Cleo the Fox and Zig the Badger. If a poor soul is lost in the dense forest, Balthazar is there and helps him/her out of his home.

Brutus is one of my koopa characters who appeared in my dreams long ago. He was unique to me as I had remembered what he looked like. I had given him more attire to make Brutus more badass. His shell is made out of metal for protection

A character that appeared in my dreams long ago. I remember that he is a new boss for Donkey Kong 64. So I couldn't help bringing him in my sketchbook. Sadly he doesn't have a name, So he'll be Dream Dragon for now.

Three randos while one was my Dream OC (Galileo). All of these guys will get a visual update (along with many of my characters from the past).

#originalcharacters #dreamcharacter #characterdesigns #pirate #djinn #monster #knight #lion #fighter

Captain Anchor was once a noble Admiral of his crew before he was mutiny by his men and left him on a deserted island. Enraged, he swore revenge on those who betrayed him. He then did so with his new turn as a ruthless pirate. He fought his former crew in a deadly fight as he overthrew them to the sea. Captain Anchor had won his fight as he continued his life in piracy. Armed with his trusty anchor, Matilda, Captain Anchor also looks for any opponents to satisfy his craving for a grand fight!

Diago is a cheeky and mischievous Djinn from the Forgotten Lands. He will grant wishes to anyone who has obtained his magic lamp. But unlike the djinns in stories, Diago can refuse certain wishes if it either goes too far or is just ridiculous to grant. But heathe thou warning to one who obtains the magic lamp; as Diago is one of the few dangerous Djinns. The first warning, never call Diago or any other djinns monkeys or apes as he despises being called a simian, thus also an insult. Second warning, never steal from a Djinn, especially cutting off either of his hands. If one somehow is able to cut Diago's hand and run off with it, you are still able to grant any wishes.....with drastic consequences. When all fingers close, Diago will find you and he will be taking your thumbs as his own. But if he senses a wish that is far from greed, he will reverse the wish and take your life. Be wise with Diago.

Oukorot warrior Erin and Fi are ready to battle.

Galileo is one lion to avoid from the fight or at night. This vicious lion has a gift to see his prey at long distance even at the darkest night. Even his own pride are afraid of the Night Lion, so afraid that they exiled Galileo from his home. But it revered the lion as Galileo travels all over the world, searching for an opponent to fight.

Oil King

A tall knight/samurai warrior who earned his name because of the trails of slick oil he leaves wherever he goes.

This character I once dreamed about was challenging to draw, so most of the time I had to rely on pure imagination.
