QRP to reintroduce yourself!

Hii I'm Julien, a freelance italian artist who works on illustrations, concepts and book covers with an intense love for dark fantasy themes! 🖤
"The great hunt". Illustration piece I did for Paul Scott Canavan's mentorship. It represents an haunt scene, the hunter is mounting a big white tiger with piercing white eyes -sign that she's blind- which is roaring as she's sprinting through the action. The hunter has heavy clothing on, inspired by the Mongolian and Slavic clothing. He has long black hair moved by the wind, and he's holding a sword in his hand, ready to defend his wood. The environment is a snowy wood, old trees and branches all around the scene, as the white snow covers them. The sun is setting, and the overall atmosphere looks pinkish, lightened by the lights of the time of the day. Pink, yellow and blue shading on the sky, as the clouds move, forming interesting shapes. Portrait illustration of an original character owned by client. The overall mood reminds the one of a renaissance painting, and the mood appears heavy. The character has white dreadlocks tied up in a clean hairstyle. He has dark skin and wears a light blue armour filled with golden details. He has a somber expression on his face, looking downwards as he's resigned to his fate, represented by the hands of his old father that is putting a bloody crown on his head. The crown is golden with lots of stones in it, and it's stained with blood representing the guilt and the violence of the kings action. Illustration I made for S.A. Harian's book Briardark. The scene is showing a young woman wearing a blue coat lost in an heavy atmospheric forest in which the trees tangles with each other and the roots are everywhere on the ground. The woman is sitting - knees down - on the grass, the look on her face seems scared and hurt while she tries to extract a glow arrow from her chest, dripping blood as she's looking at the viewer, terrified. Next to her, on the grass, there's a bloody knife almost hidden. Illustration I made for S.A. Harian's book Briardark. The image is showing a deer skull in a central composition, with songbirds on its horns. The songbirds are chirping and flying around, with white flowers and climbing plants intertwined around it.

Character and sketch by the wonderful @lunamoonaaa.bsky.social 🖤, render and background by me.
#collab | #digitalart
Digital painting of @lunamoonaaa's oc Edison, who is wearing dark red armour with ornamental silver accents and looks down at the viewer, pale face lit from below, a glint of light catching in the crimson eyes. Behind the figure, equally red trees shine before a night sky with the full moon breaking through the clouds, leaves dancing through the air.

Important PSA: I hope you never see other artists as competition. Please take their success as proof that you can also succeed here.

I was on a hiatus, but my birthday was on the 13th, and I'd be very grateful for reposts on my art as a (belated) birthday gift! Thank you for your support! 🖤

Here are the paintings I've done so far of my OC Xander as Tarot Major Arcana 🖤
#Tarot #TheHighPriestess #TheEmperor #TheSun #TheStar #ocart
My OC Xander portrayed as the High Priestess Major Arcanum of the Tarot, inspired by both the Marseille and the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot. A pale man with long dark hair and tattoos, here he is sitting/crouching on the ground, as if he's slightly moving away from the viewer while looking at them, one hand on the ground, another at his face, almost pointing towards his right eye that is covered by a luminous white flower affixed to his face. His left golden eye is visible, and a drop of red liquid is falling from his lips, from the pomegranate he ate, that is in pieces on the ground around him. His outfit is largely inspired by one of ARTMS member Kim Lip's outfits she wore during their Dall era. He is wearing black leather clothes: a hood with golden spikes at its edge, a top that exposes his collarbones and arms, a fingerless glove with a golden chain at his elbow on his left arm, pants that leave a part of his thighs visible stitched together with red laces, and knee-high laced platform boots with golden eyelets. He wears a red choker on his neck, and a golden chain from which a shining mirror is hanging. Some of his tattoos are visible (see the comments below the piece). Behind his head is the Moon, and behind the Moon are dark veils that hang from two columns, a black and a white column, similarly to the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot's imagery of the pillars of Boaz and Jachin, where they symbolise dualities like severity and mercy. They are sparkling with stars and flowing motifs, some of which come to the foreground, like the star obscuring Xander's tatoo of the astrological symbol of Mars, and a crescent that echoes the crescent Moon. Behind the veil and the Moon a part of the Cosmos is visible, a spacescape with orange-brown dust clouds surrounded by bluish illumination and many bright stars. A colourful painting of my OC Xander, a pale man with golden eyes and long dark hair shaven on the sides of his head. A part of his tattoos of black flames and a lemniscate on the side of his head is visible. He is wearing black robes, three strings of golden pearls in his neck and chest and a golden crown of laurel leaves. He has an ornate sword in his hand, in front of a desolate marshland with russet grass, exposed rocks, and smaller hills with trees on them that have lost their leaves already. There's a white glory behind his head as if it the Sun seen as a white disk behind such grey stormclouds would have been brought to the foreground, to be in the middle of the mountains visible behind the marshland. A coloured painting of my OC Xander, a pale man with long, dark hair, tattoos, and jewelry, sitting on an ornate brown-gold throne. He is wearing a golden draping over one of his shoulders, leaving the majority of his torso visible, along with a deep red draping on his lower body. His tattoos on his arms are visible, with dark fiery motifs, a skull with a parchment coming from its upper jaw, and the astrological symbols of Mars, Jupiter, and the Sun, the rulers of the Zodiac signs Aries, Sagittarius, and Leo, on his arm that he is resting on the armrest of the throne, with his hand facing us. He is wearing golden jewelry: two collars on his neck and three on each of his upper arms, and he is wearing nipple piercings with golden chains on his upper body. Behind his throne a segment of a simple wall is visible on the lower half of the painting, and on the upper half of the painting there are mountains and a blue sky with clouds above the wall. The back of his throne is like a gateway to the darkness of space, it is pitch black with small glowing stars seemingly coming out of it. He is slightly turning towards the side, and his eyes are covered with a whisp of yellowish flare that appear to connect him to the Sun behind his head. A black-and-white painting of my OC Xander, a man in water up to his waist, approaching towards the viewer. His eyes are not visible, black liquid is pouring out from the place where his eyes should be. He has long dark hair that he shoves back, the sides of his head are shaved and tattooed, and he has several dark flame tattoos down his neck, shoulder and arms, along with a motif of a parchment and a skull holding a parchment with text on his left shoulder. Ports are visible on his body throughout (he is a Space Marine OC). The dark liquid from his eyes have accumulated behind him as he's approaching, and with his hand he seems to direct its flow forward, too. Behind him is a black hole enclosed in an armillary sphere with ornate rings. The front, horizontal ring has the Roman numerals XVI, XVII and XVIIII on it, there are two rings very tightly closing up the black hole, and two outer, concentric rings. The uppermost ring has the texts "XVI - LA MAISON|DIEV", "XVII - L'ESTOILLE" and "XVIIII - LE SOLEIL" on it, along with the alchemical symbols of sulphur, the element of fire, and the Sun, as well as the symbols of the following in pairs: the Sun - the zodiac sign of Leo, Jupiter - Sagittarius, Mars - Aries. The lower part of the rings is lit strongly. On the upper part of the painting, above the rings, the distortion of the black hole is visible on the background stars and interstellar medium as their images get "flattened" around the curved surface of the outermost ring.
