They wanted a monster. They got a dragon.
Reintroducing; Isoptra
#Isoptra #oc #ocsky #art
A brand new big piece of one of my OC's; Isoptra. Isoptra hovers in the air, her long tail curled and wings just out of frame. The orange sunset casts an amber glow across everything. Isoptra is an insectoid kaiju, created by a monster hunting organisation to lead them to a secret monster safe haven. The one thing they didn't account for was Isoptra defecting of course.

The front cover for "Dragonfire", another OC mixtape based around Isoptra by yours truly. Isoptra, my dragonfly kaiju, strikes a cool acrobatic pose amidst a lighting storm, her tail wrapped around the frame and wings outstretched. Her orange eyes glow in the darkness, and her wings are illuminated by a lightning strike behind her.

That moment you remember, they're your OCs and you can do what you like with them
#art #oc #ocs #ocsky #JustineTime #Isoptra
Two of my OCs, Justine Time (gender fluid time traveller, on the left) and Isoptra (peaceful ((sometimes)) kaiju, on the right) Justine says "Isoptra, I think we're going to have to kill this guy." To which Isoptra responds with *Disconcerting grumbles* WIP sketch for another OC Mixtape for Justine Time Isoptra next to Mothra (a BIG inspiration) She says "Ma'am, I just wanna say that I'm a huge fan."

Some things are best left alone... And some things refuse to back down!
Isoptra and Grogan return for Art Fight 2026!
#ArtFight2026 #Isoptra #Grogan
Isoptra (left) and Grogan (right) return for Art Fight 2026!! Isoptra is a large brown moth-like kaiju, with huge scythe arms, glowing orange eyes, a fluffy collar and huge orange dragon wings. Grogan is a slightly smaller blue crab kaiju, with a red shell, giant red claws and a beaming toothy smile. Large reference sheet for Isoptra, also viewable on my Art Fight page.

A 3x3 grid of my best/favourite works this year, with my face in the middle. From left to right, top to bottom; we have Shatter the Sky (NiGHTS), Slay the Princess, The Rani (Doctor Who), Isoptra, me, Art Fight, Mecha NiGHTS (NiGHTS), The Trip of a Lifetime (Doctor Who) and NiGHTS IS in Sonic Racing CrossWorlds. This year has been FULL of ups and downs, but I'd be lying if I said it hasn't been great at times, and very informative for my creative self. See all you crazy kids next year :)

Here's some extra lore ;)
#Isoptra #oc #ocsky #art
Created by a monster hunting organisation to locate a hidden island that only monsters could find. She was also designed to be gentle and docile, so she wouldn’t retaliate in any way. But when her new home was under threat, she snapped and defeated the invading menace. Isoptra now acts as the selfless protector of all monsterkind. - Kind and gentle with those she trusts - Absolutely monstrous when she locks in - Curious about practically everything - Just a big kid at heart

#Isoptra isn't a monster for multiple reasons. Here's just one of them;
Isoptra says "be kind" while holding several pride flags Isoptra gives a friendly warning to people who won't let people be themselves
