for cblsanta my prompt this year is: choose any: collembola, any cathartidae, archaea, proteus mirabilis, or any parasite of your choice
CBL SANTA 2023 ART PROMPTS
(click to expand)
(only open the prompt of your asigned target unless you want to spoil the surprise i guess)
Ok my secret Santa prompt is just the theme of Circus Flea. It can be anything you want, a flea dressed like a clown or juggling swords, a tight rope walker, a lion tamer flea but the lion is also a flea dressed up. My only request is no more ring master fleas. I have too many of those already.
"the four humours personified"
"Body horror kaiju"
"Speculative evolution for an alien planet"
2 prompt options:
"Its body is canine and sturdy, much like a wolf, with two pairs of forelegs and one pair of hind legs. His fur is shaggy and grows longer along the spine and both of his two tails."
Alternative prompt: 'weevil kaiju'
OCs pictured (no need to stick super closely to the ref, have fun!)
Owl dragon / monster or insect dragon / monster... or BOTH as ONE....
me kitty / kitties (pictured) - i often like drawing them as RPG classes / characters so would love to see that. Black + white boy, Quill, is a big strong charismatic chaotic neutral man, and flamepoint cream gal Beebee is so very head empty bard / healer type of neutral good lady. Her eyes are a little crossed so I always love including that.
and if those aren't of interest to you, maybe your favorite animal / monster / critter celiebrating the Fall and or Halloween season!!
a pidgeot, and his pidgeotto and farfetch’d sons
The VERY flexible canopic jar/klein birds (basically just take a bird and make it weird shaped or some sort of vessel). Lots of pics to show how varied it can be.
Aubrit, my lethargic wallaby sona, also in several styles:
Yarak! The tatzelwurm-ish gryphon guy
Bugsona: a drainfly with glasses, any level of realism
in order of preference:
I'd love to see art of either of these characters of mine!
Dr. Espy
(you can draw either anthro or feral form)
If not that, I'd like to see art of any of the following characters (you can draw them normally or draw them as a bug if they aren't already a bug [of your choice, can be anthro or not])
???
Quo
Vide
Guzzenmite
Operator
Ian
Mrs Hawk
Merse
None
Izzy
M
if not that, then I'd like to see art of any of the following pokemon!
Espeon, Reuniclus, Shiinotic, Gliscor, Leavanny, Perrserker
Any creature/character from my toyhouse would overjoy me. You have my blessing to lean into your own art style and species interpretations while drawing who- or whatever you choose. :)
Alright for cbl Santa it’s safe to say I’m tossing Ahab in the ring
Or this copper dragon that lives in a labyrinth of waterslides
Otherwise anything birgworld works too
But if anthro ocs are not the vibe, then draw me as a 'sona of anything you're happiest/most comfortable with drawing. Monster, dragon, plant, fungus, bug, beast, bird, I'd love it all. If you pick this option I can answer any questions about general appearance/personality to help you out
Would love any drawings of uhhhh Biollante from Godzilla, Seabozu from Ultraman, or any cute drawings of Alipes grandidieri doing cute stuff
Misericorde, the fucked up and sad and extremely dead little pink fairy armadillo
Leopold, beloved mystery beast
Milkcat
Capy (smol or buff)
Or a really fucked up scrungy nasty greasy grackle goblin. Preferably a girl grackle as the basis bc they have my whole heart in how downtrodden and scrungly they are
the Penitent One from Blasphemous but he's a Orthoceras nautiloid cephalopod
my DnD character Gashanamir
a little hyena follower the style of Cult of the Lamb
Currently my splatoon characters are my beloveds and would be top priority for receiving art. Can draw with each other or solo in fun clothes, I don't really mind, I just like to see them
[link]
Slug city characters also very good. Always happy to see slug city art. Headworld about anthro inverts dealing with horrible things
[link]
Old gods, technically there are more characters but I don't have updated references for them yet. Good if you want to draw a silly creature with dubious morals
[link]
Downtown diptera, for if you'd like to draw anthro bugs. they are in a band!
[link]
general characters folder is also fair game for anything not listed here specifically!
[link]
That should have a pretty wide range of stuff to cover but in case none of those things pique your interest you are also welcome to draw some cool flies or anything with eyeballs on it. thanks for reading!
If you're a meat enjoyer: Kera'tiv. They're a carnivorous shapeshifter that dresses up and pretends to be a normal person. Currently employed as a doctor on a snowy frontier planet. Nicer guy than you'd expect! They have no bones
If you're an alien enjoyer: CIRCLEEYE. Extra-dimensional alien. Once worked as an exterminator amongst their own kind, now working in politics on a human-majority planet. They hate it. Fond of concrete, owns a large weapon collection
(First image is old but the colours are still accurate. Second image is how I draw them now)
If you're a human enjoyer: Dave Ward. Shockingly successful senator. Hyperactive, selfish, occasionally murderous. Not a vampire but he likes looking like one.
More art
If you don't like any of these there's more on my Tumblr idk whatever you have the most fun with
Here's some pictures of my axolotls, they are cute and silly lil guys.
If ya wanna draw one of my characters they're listed on my neocities here:
Apart from my skelizard thing I consider the subterranean city fellas my main guys, but you can pick whoever ya want I love 'em all.
You can draw a cool lil lizard or dinosaur or any other reptile if ya want, they're all cool lil guys.
My prompt is "A funny little Mouse or Frog wearing some kind of Circus Outfit"
What I would like depicted in secret is any of my Mindhaunt, I love them so much
The characters can be in any form, see examples of their likeness, depict any that is fun! Thank you!!!
combine your favourite fish with a canid of your choice :>
Either that, or pls draw me a funky homoculus or two!
"I have two guys I'd love to see drawn in any capacity (but requesting maybe theyre hanging out with the artists ocs?) in links below"
but if my artist doesn't want to do either im extremely laid back and would open the prompt list up to:
- an owl of their choice
- a bug of their choice or
- a chicken
Cleveland Shale biota! The Cleveland Shale is a geologic formation in Bedford, Ohio, and is host to extinct species such as Gorgonichthys clarki, Dunkleosteus terrelli, Bungartius perissus, Titanichthys agassizi, Stethacanthus carinatus, Cladoselache brachypterygius, and Orodus!

Guy Hancock (can also be drawn with Don, exes)
Gilbert (can also be drawn with Selena, rivalry)
tbh any character in these folders/settings with 10+ images (or 1-2 clean/colored ref pic lmao):
(if you really really want, if you see a page for a species that contains guidelines + examples, you can also choose to design some as an option and i will make them canon to the setting as bg characters lol)

Old Colorful Gaudy Tech, Y2K stuff
For prompts I'd love a Nosferatu or pretty much Any Wasp.
My sona - Literally just me but in a sheep suit. Kinda chubby! I like knitting, going on big silly walks, my cats, all birds of every shape and size, and uhhhhhhhhh having emotions over Spock from the original series Star Trek. Draw him doing literally whatever you want!
Hennock - a satyr warlock. Personality is basically Dean from The Iron Giant. Kinda tall and fat. Very chill, mellow easy going man who is genuinely a kind soul but with a Knowing ©️ vibe that makes him inscrutable in general and off putting to some. Wandering man who does odd jobs. Lives mostly off grid in wherever he can find shelter. Clothes are old and well worn but never too dirty. Smells like heather. Loves all animals but especially LOVES cats. Smokes weed, will share with you if you ask. Low key anarchist. Draw him however and doing whatever you want, just keep him fat with big horns! NOTE - headshot is older art and slightly offmodel, the fullbody is the more "on model" one!
fursona, for anthro enjoyers. enjoys classical vampire activities and turning into goop
DnD Wizard/street performer (being a wizard is his hobby & he does not use spells in his performances) very serious about bringing joy to people / his face is stuck like this
there's also this "spider of the mind" (and baby spiderling of the mind) I made for a game I was running, as an end-game boss encounter. it makes people who look at it mad, and if you fail a check one starts growing in your mind :) it'd be interesting to see what kind of colours/textures it could have! the abdomen can resemble anything that would illicit fear
I also LOVE WEEVILS and Sphingidae (the moths, not the.. miraculous ladybug villain?? of the same name?)
here are some of my favorite characters. you have complete and total artistic freedom to do whatever youd like with them, take as many liberties as you please :)
