Hello there! I'm Dea, a freelance illustrator from Malta. I mostly do character illustration and cover art for books and TTRPGs, and I generally just love painting most things fantasy! (and also a lot of fanart).

Been on a bit of a Marvel high since Thunderbolts (which I loved) so here's a study of Yelena (from reference)

some recent mouth/teeth studies from photo reference
I still struggle to draw open mouths/teeth from imagination so this was some much needed practice. Tried to find some interesting looking ones for variety.

The illustration course I took with the wonderful @paulscottcanavan.com finished today! 🥰And so did I 🫠
Such a fun Illustration to work on and SUCH a fun brief over all!
I really fell in love with these noodly swamp puppies, they were an absolute delight to paint.

Finished version of the Shallan sketch that I had done a while back.
The sketch was originally fanart at the time, but a few months later I was asked to do a finished version of it for Brotherwise Games.

Just realised it's been 4 months since I last posted. I'm so bad at staying active on here when I'm busy with work 😩
Here's a warm-up sketch/wip. Not sure if I'll ever finish this one so I'm just gonna post it as is cause otherwise it'll probably end up never seeing the light of day again 😅

It's my level up day today! 😊 Reaching lvl 36, and would be happy to celebrate with everyone here.
So, might I asked for reposts?👀 I heard that's a thing. I offer angels, OCs, cool old ladies and cute frogs in return!
