New Years 2026

Another year, another illustration to herald in the new year.
For 2026's piece, I wanted something that representative of my current art. So I leaned heavy into the horror, even having doodles of my characters crawling out of my persona's eye.

Final illustration. I used a special tricolored brush in order to achieve a chromatic aberration effect.

Bonus doodle. The smug bug in all her glory.

I liked this illustration so much that I used it as my banner for social media
If you've read An Immortal Laid to Rest, you might recognize where those eye tentacles came from.

Character/Doodlebug ref for Ms. Bug.
I tend to reiterate on her design every year, but I think this one will stick around for awhile.
