I love my British hypnotist father OC so much. This man will forever mean the world to me.

A sketch of my original character Michael James the Second looking at an offscreen character and smiling extremely softly. His expression reads tender, proud, and maybe even slightly solemn.

Don't worry! Jamie Hewlett style Ash isn't real! She can't hurt you!

Jamie Hewlett style Ash-

A sketch of my OC Ash sticking out her tongue in a semi/mocking manner and giving a playful/teasing expression to the viewer. Her fangs are visible as she smiles. A sketch of my OC Ash, but in the art style Jamie Hewlett, sticking out her tongue in a semi/mocking manner and giving a playful/teasing expression to the viewer. Her fangs are visible as she smiles; however, they are more subtle due to Jamie Hewlett's semi realistic style.

And here you go, have Dwight the Mechanic. Skilled with machines and semi decent with social situations, this poor soul gets stuck with Murdoc in a life pod and suffers a horrible fate. Wanted to sketch the lad and honestly? It's not too bad imo #ashsflame #sketch #gorillaz #gzbsky #subnautica #au

I'm too mentally exhausted to use alt text, please forgive me. This was supposed to not be a SUPER serious comic, but instead it's turned into a vent comic lol

🎉Congrats, now you guys see what makes Murdoc and Ash separate in my Subnautica AU 🎉I love angst when it goes towards character development.

A sketch of Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz in my Subnautica AU. He screams at an offscreen Ash, "They're DEAD, Ash! Stop playing hero- NO- STOP BEING SELFISH!!!" Murdoc is visibly tense and angry. He's drawn in the fully upgraded Subnautica swimsuit. A sketch of my OC Ash glaring down at Murdoc while he screams, "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LEAVE THINGS ALONE?!" Ash glares back coldly and states, "Like how I should have left YOU?" She is drawn in the fully upgraded Subnautica swimsuit as well. An offscreen Ash declares, "YEAH, I SAID IT!" while Murdoc is visibly stunned. He stares up at her in silence, grimacing in complete and utter shock at her statement.

Bet you guys thought I forgot about my Subnautica AU, huh? Jokes on you! Have Murdoc snapping at Ash and what ultimately leads to their breaku- "separation" that nearly kills Ash!

He pointed out there are no other survivors on the planet

A fully rendered commission for @maxwellflinch.bsky.social of his character Maxwell having an encounter with Ash during the night. Absolutely love the final result of this piece and I'm grateful to share it with the rest of you! #ashsflame #art #comm #commission #vampire #hypnosis
An illustration of a vampire named Maxwell (left) looking down at a victim, blood dripping from his fangs, with an evil smile. His eyes glow a dark red and orange while he and Ash (right) are illuminated by the moonlight. Ash smiles helplessly, hypnotized by the vampire's gaze and is blissfully unaware of her fate. Her eyes glow a bright red and she leans back, fully taking in the sight before her.

Have a sketchpage I did a few hours ago while just shutting my brain off. I forgot how nice it was to free draw with no clear vision. Just pure art. #ashsflame #oc #ocsky #gorillaz #murdoc #2D #scoobydoo #luigi #triforce
A sketchpage filled with various doodles of things I like. In the center is a large sketch of Ash looking off to the right with her tongue sticking out and her eyebrows raised. A small signature is beside her. The rest from from top left and bottom left to top right and bottom right: A sketch of Scooby-Doo's collar, Scooby-Doo, Luigi, the Triforce from Legend of Zelda, my OC Michael James the Second, "2D" aka Stuart Pot from Gorillaz, the Gorillaz Logo written by hand, Murdoc Niccals, and a mini sketch of Ash saying, "I'm very normal about Murdoc".

Ohhhhh the parallels... (funnily enough the Murdoc one WAS intentional, the Ash one was not)
#ashsflame #sketches #art
A sketch of my OC Ash presumably zonked out and drooling. A fang is visible in her mouth An older sketch from 2022 of Ash getting zonked out A sketch of Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz grinning down at someone A sketch of Villain Michael from the very end of 2024 smiling down at an offscreen person with a self satisfied expression. The words "Feeling weak?.. Good." Are written to the left of him

I'm projecting so freaking hard I swear to gosh. I'm literally about to pass out. I want to be zonked like Ash I just want to vibe. I don't want to think anymore

Have something really, really, REALLY stupid that I just had to redraw the second I saw it. These two idiots are trying Michael's patience LOL
#ashsflame #meme #yumeship #gzbsky #gorillaz #murdoc
A silly meme redraw of my OCs Ash (left) and Michael (bottom middle) with Murdoc Niccals (right) from Gorillaz. Ash has her eyes shut and her lips pursed out like she's trying to kiss someone. Murdoc is doing the exact same thing, but facing Ash while Michael's face is somewhat cut off on the bottom box. Michael seems visibly agitated and exhausted. The boxes from left to right, up to down are "Capt.Ash" "Murdoc" and "kill me now". A silly meme of two people in love and "kissing" each other on a video call, separated only by boxes. A third person is visible down below them admiring the lovers and just enjoying them being happy. The meme is by @/criahacesium on X.

Never again. I'm never doing semi realism EVER again "for fun." This kept me from finishing my short story LOL. This was also another infamous "warmup sketch" that ended up being a full blown study/commitment. #gorillaz #gzbsky #ashsflame #murdoc
A sketch of a semi realistic Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz. It was my version of his "realistic" Humanz design. This was pure pain and suffering. It may look okay, but I am dying after finishing it. Art of Murdoc Niccals from the cover art of Humanz. I love this artwork.

Welp I've done it. I'm officially the first person on planet earth to draw Naga Murdoc. The brainrot consumed me and I gave in. This was supposed to be a simple warmup sketch... Lol. All ref images are in the comment section under this post
#ashsflame #murdoc #gorillaz #naga #sketch
Murdoc Niccals drawn as a Naga, the mythical creature that is half man half snake. He eyes someone with a devilish grin, fangs and tongue out of mouth. He crosses his arms and rests upon his own coils. He has the pattern markings of an emerald tree boa all across his serpentine body.

Genuinely INSANE how drawing a character 1 million times actually shows a difference in how you draw them #ashsflame #murdoc #gorillaz
Cropped sketch of Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz eyeing a character to his right (our left). A bit of green blush can be seen on the tips of his ears and all across his face A sketch of Murdoc Niccals eagerly grinning at someone. This sketch is not only more accurate to his character model, but it looks better too!

This is easily my favorite sketch of Murdoc for 2026 so far #ashsflame #murdoc #murdocniccals #gorillaz #sketch

Looks like someone decided to swap clothes with a friend... But that's totally normal friend behavior and not relationship related whatsoever :3 #ashsflame #murdoc #murdocniccals #gorillaz #sketch
Murdoc Niccals in my OC Ash's hoodie. He's sitting up on the floor and grinning at an offscreen Ash lying on the ground in his outfit. He gives her a smug smile and simply observes her.

What could possibly go wrong with Murdoc finding out that Ash is easily hypnotized and will do whatever she's told?.. I'm sure absolutely nothing! #ashsflame #murdoc #oc #ocsky #gorillaz #art #sketch
Ash (left) completely zonked out and staring mindlessly into Murdoc's eyes. Murdoc (right) has a mischievous and devilish grin on his face as he gazes back at her. Drool is dripping out of the side of Ash's mouth while Murdoc just presses his forehead against hers. Both their hair is flattened against one another's.

I'm close to crashing out from irl stuff. So take Murdoc finding out that hypnotism is real and coming to that realization after goofing off with a pocket watch around Ash #ashsflame #murdoc #gorillaz #oc
"Hypnotism is real?.." Murdoc glancing down to the left, thinking about something while talking to himself. Ash has a dazed expression and is staring blankly into space. "I- ..." Murdoc staring out, processing something slowly. Ash is still dazed. "..." The gears are turning in that old Brit's head with a realization. Ash is still dazed. "𝘏𝘺𝘱𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡." Murdoc gives a very smug grin and says something reassuringly to himself, satisfied with a probably evil thought. Ash is still dazed.

I promise I'll finally lock in with a comm I need to do instead of drawing Murdoc & Ash for the 1,000,000th time after this (they're still TOTALLY not a couple). I just needed to blow off some steam so I don't go into art block #ashsflame #oc #murdoc #gorillaz #sketch
Murdoc Niccals (left) and my OC Ash (right). The two are staring deeply into each other's eyes and smiling. Ash appears to be looming over Murdoc with a toothy grin while he simply smiles back with his tongue slightly sticking out. The two "friends" (lovers) simply stare at each other longingly.

Art block sucks, but these guys suck more. I promise these guys are "just friends" and nothing more! Can't you tell by the way they look at each other?
#ashsflame #ocsky #murdoc #gorillaz
My OC Ash (left) and Murdoc Niccals (right) from Gorillaz. Murdoc is resting his head on Ash's shoulder and is grinning up at her. There's a subtle hint of blush on Murdoc's face and Ash is smiling back at him. Her blush is much more obvious

Michael has Ash's full attention while SOMEONE seems a bit distracted... I wonder what Murdoc's thinking about... #ashsflame #oc #murdoc #gorillaz #sketch
Ash (left) and Murdoc Niccals (right). Ash is smiling at an offscreen Michael while Murdoc is eyeing the oblivious Ash. There's a hint of blush on Murdoc's face and ears. It's subtle, but there.
