2025 main art gallery of BLUE HORIZON characters by naila moonsi.


A new page for the upcoming new year! It's 12/22/2024. I might have a bit of art to show off soon.

The 2022 to 2024 page has a secret! Poke at it if you want. If it's too difficult to find, it's on the main page with other secrets, too. It's secret, but it's not "secret."

I keep making cover art! This is for the upcoming 18k interactive fiction/text-based family + LGBTQ/gay/boys' love game featuring Raj Rivera...! It should drop within a few days' time (it's currently 02/21/25).

Here's a smaller version without the text:

Here's additional artwork that will be a part of the game!

Spoiler art for main routes within the game:

New 02/25/25 character art with extreme spoilers for a route within the game:

Secret route art.

[Current note 02/23/25. Moved the old Hibiscus artwork to the sketch dump section of the site, here.]





I created the cover art for the side story novella/light novel and dropped it after the new year, around January 23rd...! It came to me as a vision. (I'll put up a version of the artwork without any text in the way eventually; am just being lazy RN.)

chibi antonio chandrani-rivera is quote unquote singing and/or (likely actually) speaking to alejandro altaha, who is blushing at him. cousin layla chandrani is shocked and concerned toward antonio's identical twin fernando seeming to have colorful tv/computer-fritzing static on him, and he quote unquote sings or speaks with a rainbowing pixelated music note. he has an eye of ra or horus on him. his shirt has a sun with an odd pink-red pixel on it. antonio description: closed eyes, brown skin, blue hair like waves, blue panjabi-like attire with 6 stars around a moon and waves below. aqua pants. blue shoes. alejandro: smiling, blushing, red eyes, light bronze skin, red tunic, pink wavy pattern at the bottom with a rainbow of eyes, a sky blue shirt collar with sun pattern, dark pink pants, sky blue shoes. layla: white wavy hair, darker brown skin than antonio, black eyepatch with esoteric moon-and-stars, shocked and concerned expression and exclamation point and question mark, white european suit, green shirt and red tie, aqua pants and blue shoes. fernando: identical to antonio excepting freckle and braid and 'regular' violet-looking black hair. aqua shirt, sun design, odd pink-red pixel by the chest, blue pants, no shoes. staticking song icon, staticking tv + computer rainbow

Beyond that, there's two new regular artwork upcoming...! Until then, here's a sketch of the Main 4's Ancient selves via blog. It's of Nasir Hadid-Salah (Antonio Chandrani-Rivera) and Leila Hadid-Salah (Layla Chandrani) and their besties. Will be finishing it up soon.

As for the rest of the newest artwork...they are mainly all chibi! One is the header art for the site now, and the rest are enamel pin designs.

The header art:

The enamel pin designs...!

antonio chandrani-rivera with blue hair like waves, brown skin, and red eyes is stressed and trying to reach alejandro altaha with light bronze skin, red eyes and long violet hair with pink highlights, who is smiling up at him adorably and seems a bit oblivious to his stress. there is a scarlet reddish pink rose beneath. the outlines are normal black and violet. antonio is wearing an indigo blue chandrani outfit with silvery stars and moons falling into waves. alejandro is wearing a pink-red outfit with white flowers reaching up toward his abdomen with green leafy design trailing down to the side. there's an extra skirt that's darker pink and he has a shirt collar design that's gold blue with waning and waxing and full moon design. the bg is light spring green. Armando Rivera with dark blue falling hair, light bronze skin, amber eyes and a red speck presses his hand against Ranvir's in an attempt to hold it. They are both blushing. Ranvir with blue waterfall undercut hair, dark brown skin, umber eyes with a red fleck is peering down at the hand, seeming a bit bothered. Armando is wearing a violet shirt with darker violet undershirt as well as gray pants and white sneakers. Ranvir is wearing the dark blue Chandrani uniform with a visible hoodie and a fall of silver stars and moons into waves. There's a rainbowing sunflower behind them; it is a fantasy sunflower with blue filaments. The BG is light violet. Alia with dark brown skin, red eyes and curly indigo blue hair falling behind her is staring at Layla with a pensive expression and a blush, while Layla with brown skin, red eyes and wavy silver hair looks more wonderingly at her. They are above a red water lily flower with yellow filaments and there is a red ladybug with dark dots on it. There is a blue-green pond surrounding them and green outside implying grasses. Alia wears a dark blue captain-like outfit that's long with blue pants and V-like coat-lining that's light blue with silvery buttons and has a frilly white shirt collar beneath. Layla wears a white suit with red tie and dark blue shirt.

As noted on the main page, Alejandro's frock-like attire is based on historic photos of Apache men's outfits. Antonio's is just his Chandrani family's fantasy uniform. As noted in the 11/23/24 blog post, Alejandro [Caldera-]Altaha is mixed Apache and Mexican.

I didn't think about how 2025 would begin with the chibification of Blue Horizon characters. Fun way to begin it, art-wise...! Relaxing. I've been used to drawing chibis for a long time, despite otherwise doing an extremely extensive art break for about ten years.

Here's a few of the last artworks of 2024:



SO... I was stubborn back in February of 2024 and assumed I'd draw a few more (and actually reach my goal of finishing 30 daily sketches instead of only 20), but I never did!

I never dropped this sketch I completed in February 17th of 2024. I will actually drop the somewhat edited version of this sketch here (I'll be less lazy and drop the edited version of other daily sketches here eventually).

It's of older Armando Rivera and Ranvir Chandrani, the dads of Blue Horizon! The first digital art I ever attempted was of them at 18 or 19, so it's interesting to see my slow progress thus-far by comparing them.

A comic panel where the young man with red eyes, blue hair like waves and blue panjabi Antonio Chandrani-Rivera is looking cockily with a grin at red-eyed violet-and-pink-haired Alejandro Altaha, who's looking down and blushing with a sweatdrop and exclamation mark. The main difference is Antonio has a bubble with lgbt flag and question mark.older armando and older ranvir respectively under a rose arch. the roses surrounding them are pink and darker pink upon a spring green arch. behind them are implied bushes with implied lavender-colored flowers and a grassy lane with flower petals implied to have fallen on the grass. armando with medium light brown skin is looking at ranvir a little shyly with a slight blush; he has black pomade hair back with a gray streak and a beard and a lopsided smile. he wears a white shirt with a purple tie and gray pants. ranvir with dark brown skin is speaking to him with a smile on his mouth and is relaxed; he has short gray hair and gray beard. he's wearing a white undershirt and blue lungi with aqua stripes falling like water.

I'm currently largely focusing on the upcoming Kickstarter and art I want to get done for that! So I haven't been sketching outside that much.

Due to this, here's a few comic sketches to give a better feel for my current art, from March 2024 onward (the last one is from late July 2024):

Antonio pulling Alejandro's arm against his chest, holding it. Antonio is smiling with furrowed brows at Alejandro while mostly submerged back against the ocean, with only his face and part of his head unsumbmerged. His shoulder-length blue hair is drifting in the water, and what's underneath the water is darker or bluish, including his diver-like dark blue suit, his skin and his hair.Antonio pulling Alejandro's arm against his chest, holding it.

Rajab looks back at someone with a serious gaze, silver eyes, dark brown skin and silver hair with a flowery white print shirt. The seas behind him look mystical and swirling. Antonio with his typical darker blue hair [within the comic] like waves looks brash with a sharp grin, with glowing red eyes and blood splashed on his skin. Fernando, who is identical to him except with [anime] dark violet hair with a flying braid, looks back at what looks like Antonio very seriously with his golden eye glowing and a small frown, wearing a red shirt and with his waves whirling behind him.Rajab looks back at someone with a serious gaze, silver eyes, dark brown skin and silver hair with a flowery white print shirt.

Diego is trying to comfort Antonio's golden-eyed identical twin Fernando, sweating a bit while blushing and awkwardly conversing (implied). Fernando's tearful, with his feet to his chest and tears fallen on the hands on top of his knees. They're indoors sitting on a windowsill seat, and Fernando is wearing only an teal lungi with violet diamond patterns at the bottom while Diego wears a plaid shirt and gray jeans. Diego's skintone is light brown, while Fernando's skintone is medium brown. Diego has black hair that's pomaded back, while Fernando has dark violet hair that's implied to be black that has a braid hanging down in front of is chest. The clouds are gray outdoors and the wall or balcony door Diego holds onto is lavender.Diego is trying to comfort Antonio's golden-eyed identical twin Fernando, sweating a bit while blushing and awkwardly conversing (implied).

The silver-eyed Raj Rivera is crying while glowing violet-eyed William is trying to comfort him, holding onto his arm while blushing heavily. William has long brown hair that's a little wavy, pale skin, and freckles. He wears an orange shirt with fuchsia v-neck lining and a fuchsia four-pointed star/sparkle on the chest. Raj has silver-white anime hair color and dark brown skin. The tears are noticeable on his face, even though he's smiling, and it spills over onto his black undershirt.The silver-eyed Raj Rivera is crying while glowing violet-eyed William is trying to comfort him, holding onto his arm while blushing heavily.
