Description After an amazing amount of art block (and lack of time for personal sketchings) I've finally got something out.

As you may or may not know, Gold Demona has been the character I've used as my avatar for about as long as I've been on the internet. Shamefully, that's closing in on twenty years now.

I've seen myself in her form for much of this time and have always been very attached to her despite her awkward appearance. I eventually felt the urge to give this character a universe to live in. Which is where my fanfic came from, the urge to create a home and a story for Gold Demona. This was only five or so years ago.

After I finished the fic, I felt like Gold had actually become her own character with her own life and her own friends and family.
I even began to expand on this universe, adding more characters and more stories. Sequels, prequels, everything-inbetween-quels. None of which I plan to post until I actually finish something, which I don't really see happening in the foreseeable future.

But I digress. The point is the character known as Gold Demona has separated herself from me, and I can no longer see her as my avatar.

So I created a new one. One that is not a character I cobbled together with her own separate name, but is plain and simply me as a gargoyle.

I plan to properly ink and color this eventually, but for now, I'm happy to just share this sketch.

.....Also, I fail at drawing in profile. XD

P.S. To those of you who are watching me for my Nuzlocke comic. Don't worry, I've still got that going. I've mostly just been playing my game and tweaking my script. Rest assured that there will be more pages. I just have to get around to drawing them.

I see you've gone from Brooklyn style wings to Goliath style wings.

They're technically still the same wings as before. I just added claws to them.

Jeez that hat must be a pain in the ass to put on and off even with the horn holes.

Yeah, curved horns are a pain, but at least they're curving in the same direction and not completely away from each other.

I think she suits you : )

I especially like the tufted tail, haha. My original garg-self has the tufted tail as well, although like you, I've been toying with the idea of a new design. My original design is going to end up being in a story herself, and I'd like there to be a version just for me, hehe.

Oh, and profiles are hard. Don't even worry about it. I commend you for putting it up there, even after a bit of an art block. I haven't had time for much sketching recently either, but I probably won't be posting anything up anytime soon, haha.
