Uhhhh deeply sorry that there's no search bar, but Ctrl + F is right there, good luck buddy

Why is it called "Proto Livastia?" Good question, hypothetical confused individual. I call the early days of Livastia by this name because it's a period of its development where I really didn't take it seriously at all, and thus a large chunk of the art from this time depicts lore and events that were retconned or don't exist anymore. For example, an MAI/Vehicle LAI used to be able to be literally anything - WWI tank, excavator, cargo ship, you name it. Now, however, with further thought and development, these concepts that were once true no longer exist in Livastia canon unless under rare and odd exception.

Proto Livastia, as a matter of fact, was actually initially created as a joke of sorts. The first MAI to ever exist, Kelly Segal, and the first proper LAI to ever exist, Lazarus Sasaki, were at one point nothing more than gag characters that I made as a silly "what if" type of thing. Aren't you glad that I started seriously thinking about the reasons for their existance in a serious manner and getting myself sucked into a multi-year running worldbuilding project? Don't answer that that's a rhetorical.

06-28-2018 traditional [REVISED]Kelly's Friends: Sadly I kinda just dropped these guys when I started modernizing designs, but they were never major characters in the first place - just side characters to complement Kelly. Funny enough, the first plane is where Kelly inhereited his invasion stripes. Now that they've been retconned, however, They now once belonged to another late friend of his that has remained unnamed.
06-28-2018 traditional [REVISED]Starsaff Ejecting Pearson Scouts: OK BYE SON
06-25-2018 traditional Dirtbike LAI And Rider: To ride this specific fella would normally be a grave mistake, that's why the rider is covered head to toe in burn-resistant gear because riding a solo-racing dirtbike is like riding a bucking bronco that can give you third degree burns. NO footholds, NO handlebars, NO exhaust protection, hold on for your life, buddy. That dirtbike probably doesn't want you on its back anyways. I mentioned earlier that cycles are a common vessel/avatar for A-class LAI and MAI, but this specific dirtbike here would probably be a B-Class since it's made just for sport.
06-24-2018 traditional [NONCANON]Apollo And Shannon: He's not terribly irritated here he just has RBF sometimes...ok maybe he's a little irritated. Also from a roleplay scenario, because these two wouldn't actually know each other in canon.
06-20-2018 traditional [REVISED]ADU-08 Sketches: Anatomy visual and, uh, hold gentle like hamburger.
06-20-2018 traditional Adrik Is A Little FLustered: Think I drew this when I was thinkin about Adrik being a generally almost aggressive feral MAI, but he's a big softie around Nikita specifically.
06-19-2018 traditional Apollo Sketch: First Apollo sighting?? It's more likely than you think. I made this guy expressly to be buddies with Nikita and Adrik. He's a feral MAI, but one that's slightly more sociable than those two.
06-19-2018 traditional [REVISED]Kelly Tries Pontoons: oh goodness gracious he's a little wobbly someone get out there and hold him still
06-18-2018 traditional Cessna Paintball/Plane Snoot: I was trying to think of some fun things for LAI to do sports-wise. Strap a big ol paintball canon to them so they can shoot each other with it? Why the hell not / I just wanted to draw a silly little guy, methinks. bonus caption about snoot
06-12-2018 thru 06-14-2018 traditional [REVISED]Alexia Being Idioromantic With Asriel: Attracted to dumb of ass, pure of heart...
06-09-2018 traditional Kelly And Loon's Wedding Attire: wuv, twue wuv....
06-09-2018 traditional Shannon Gun: Man I have a lot of sketches from this day - idk, Shannon with a gun. She has opposable thumbs but I guess she was bent on using her ears
06-09-2018 traditional Passenger Drone Concept Art: hehe legy
06-09-2018 digital [NONCANON]Some Guy Punches Nikita: This is a scenarion from a roleplay I did with some buddies - yeah, boo me, "ohh cringe!" I know just let it out real quick, get over it LMAO - but no the punching does not hurt Nikita. NOt physically at least, but mentally... why the hell is this guy punching solid metal? That's GOTTA hurt - I honestly can't remember how the punching started but it was pretty funny.
06-06-2018 traditional [REVISED]Nikita Side Sketch: Starting to get to a decent skill level of drawing tanks here, they don't look too terribly distorted anymore, which even back then I knew was a huge issue I had with them LMAO
06-06-2018 traditional Hetzer Tiny Doodles: Aww he's just a lil guy look at how small these doodles are
06-04-2018 traditional Shannon Alt Paint/Angy: Damn girl you got a little something on your face there, do you need help getting that off or... I think this is the part where I started makine E-20s a lil more scary/a force to be reckoned with.
06-02-2018 traditional Kelly And Loon Fly Together: Don't ask the logic of this formation, my page space was limited
06-02-2018 traditional Kelly And Loon Kis - The Sequel: Peace and love on planet earth
