Ey. So I woke up from a nap and figured, "What the heck, I've already got a ton of stuff, Wynaut share it?"
So yeah. I don't have a digital art program or a scanner, so everything you see here is pencil or something else traditional on paper, photographed by a smartphone. Apologies for the quality in advance.

... I'll just start by giving someone a decent idea of what goes on in my head.

For the Jirachi and T. Rex, did you use oil pastels? The colors on them are so vibrant.
 
Wow, these are great! I can't even pick a favorite! I really like the first one because I'm not very good at armor or scales, I love the mix of mature and adorable on the second one, and the way you drew the wings is gorgeous for the fourth one. I also love the colors for the third one (Kingdom Hearts reference!!) And the pallet for the last one. Overall, really great job!!
I'd also like to know what you used to color those two, I've been thinking about getting into pastels for coloring sketches.

Everything that isn't a pencil sketch is colored with Prisma pencils, oil-based colored pencils. They're a bit more difficult to blend, and coloring large areas is an absolute pain, but they aren't as messy or imprecise as pastels. They're good for small, detailed things, which means they're ideal for me.

With enough time and care, they can make some really great stuff. One of my favorite projects is in oil pencil:

The one below has nothing to do with oil pencils, by the way. I just got bored one day, pulled up the Fire Emblem Awakening boxart, and made some adjustments.

It worked sooo much better than what I'd expected.
 
It's been a while.

I need to make my pencil drawings a bit sharper and less sloppy. Old habits die hard.
 
Wow, I love them! Touka looks adorably angry aha.
