Been trying to work on some personal art and characters again and finally want to share some ahhh. So many of these designs I have actually had for a long time I just get NERVOUS! But I wanna do lil arts and comics :D and also draw lots of queer ladies #ferntideart - ThreadSky

Oh my GOSH I love Charlie. What the flag other than lesbian?

basyboo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Apparently it’s polyamorous

candlekit.bsky.social•4 days ago

writing it down for... research purposes, yeah~

basyboo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Ooh mind sharing what the research is?
(Also worth noting her other flag seems to be butch lesbian specifically)

kiddlit.bsky.social•4 days ago

You've got such a great range of different styles and personalities for them, I can't pick a fav, love it 💕 And Charlie's poly!!

raccsnaccreese.bsky.social•4 days ago

Charlie is so cutiepie 🥹 I’d love to see more of these characters

charmhusky.bsky.social•4 days ago

I bet they each have a specific style of coffee or tea they order and it's a lovely time going to the cafe with them ;3

ferntide.bsky.social•4 days ago

oh yeah, now I'm gonna be deeply thinking about all their preferred choices all day haha

charmhusky.bsky.social•4 days ago

And pastry snaccs cause you can't forget about those 👀

I love all these gals!! It’s great to see you working on some personal art :D and I love all their shapes. Always great to see the variety you bring in the shapes you draw, it gives me lots of joy

ferntide.bsky.social•4 days ago

aw thank you ^^ im excited to draw more of them all!

All of these characters are such a vibe, but I wanna go dive bar hopping with Marlee in particular!

ferntide.bsky.social•4 days ago

she would probably be very down with that tbh

firebreath.bsky.social•4 days ago

I am really digging Juno's vibe! That bit of shyness and just... being present, unassuming. And glad to see us.
Charlie feels like she's be a cuddlebug. And I would oblige! <3
Marlee feels WAY TOO INTENSE for me. It seems to suit her. :3
And Rose is just adorabubble.

Such great characters. <3

imsnowflake.bsky.social•4 days ago

valkspouch.bsky.social•4 days ago

YESSS MARTEN we love a noodle

ferntide.bsky.social•4 days ago

yeah gotta have a noodle u3u important

penanigans.bsky.social•4 days ago

You're so good at drawing all sorts of body types. They all feel like real people..er, animal people.

Love seeing your OCs. :3

ferntide.bsky.social•4 days ago

aww ty so much! It's something I really enjoy showing through my art for sure ^^

penanigans.bsky.social•4 days ago

Also Rose's color palette is just *chef's kiss*

I love all the colors and styles! I also appreciate that they are all in their 30's. I think a lot of online queer spaces focus heavily on twentysomethings, so it's nice to see some characters who are a few more years along.

ferntide.bsky.social•3 days ago

thank you! I'm glad it's appreciated and I wish older characters were shown more tbh. All these gals will probably slowly age up as I do xD

anxiousmarsupial.bsky.social•3 days ago

Literally came here to comment on this - never got to explore my identity much in my 20s, so seeing characters who represent this age bracket is actually super validating!

I wish there wasn't such a focus on being "youthful"in queer spaces - but there is in cis/straight ones, too...

ferntide.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm glad to hear! I figured out my sexuality only recently and i like the idea of exploring that through characters~
