Digital painting fan art for Fear & Hunger 2: Termina featuring Daniël standing in near profile, head turned toward the viewer and holding a bloody scalpel in his left hand defensively near his throat. He looks aghast, his left eye socket bleeding from beneath the patch. His right arm is amputated below the shoulder and bandaged off. Pocketcat stands just behind him, grinning and half hidden. Rher peers out from the upper corner of the dark, textured background. Daan is partially framed by the sigil of the Sulfur God, drawn hastily in blood. Digital painting of Olrox and Mizrak from Castlevania: Nocturne referencing their last scene in the anime. A nude flesgling vampire Mizrak straddles Olrox , looming over him on a bed with a conflicted expression and blood around his mouth. Olrox , disheveled in a gold-trimmed white shirt and black panel-front pants, looks up at him with a reassuring smile, his torso studded with fresh bite marks. Warm sunlight rim-lights them from a window out of frame. Screencap redraw of Olrox from Castlevania Nocturne sitting up on a bed. Lineup of four character designs in various fantasy baroque style musketeer dresses and carrying weapons.

Flat colored sketch page. On the left: a bust of a young white woman in a ratty brown fur coat with piercings, grungy eye makeup, and long, partially braided blonde hair with black dyed ends. She is laying her hand alongside her face, middle finger braced on her cheek, and smiling with her tongue stuck out. She is wearing a camo crop top over a black tank. On the right: a half-body of a young woman with light brown skin, short, wavy mauve hair and freckled cheeks wearing an slouchy ruched black and purple striped shirt and distressed jeans jeans along with a collar and layered necklaces.

Decided to not have the target on this goal super set, because the number likely will fluctuate once partner is paid and we figure out bills/rent. (Thus I will adjust this as we go) But anything helps and boosts are appreciated. 💖

Hello #PortfolioDay!
I’m Runo, a freelance fantasy artist specializing in characters ✦🌿
A black and white drawing of a character with curly horns and long dark hair worn in two loose braids, surrounded by a forest background and a decorative frame. There's a scar running across their mid chest and ribs. The character is gently holding their hands over the scar, with a calm expression on their face, eyes closed. A black and white drawing of a long-haired character with antlers and fluffy ears, portrayed against a forest background. A circular shape frames their face from behind, and multiple sparkly shapes decorate the portrait. A black and white drawing of a character with long dark hair and curly horns, surrounded by stylized foliage. A symbolic dagger seems to be piercing their throat. The character has a calm expression - eyes closed and a subtle smile on their lips. A decorative and detailed black and white portrait of a long-haired character with pointy ears. They are dressed in fancy clothing and wear jewelry. Their eyes seem to be slightly glowing as they gaze at the viewer.

OC, Carmen Romero Digital artwork of a woman in lingerie and heels posed confidently in an antique upholstered armchair. In one black, clawed hand she loosely holds a cigarette holder and lit cigarette, which trails smoke across the top of the image, and her other hand is draped over the armrest. A Columbian rainbow boa curls up her arm and around her shoulders, and a second set of shadowy black arms pose eerily behind her. The image is lit with iconic film noir slats of light and shadow, and a large, theatrical black hat casts much of her face into darkness, except for one shining golden eye visible beneath the brim. OC, Victoria Sweet Digital painting of a deathly pale woman with long dark hair, multiple curling horns tipped in gold, and fangs backlit by a full moon against a starless night sky. She ecstatically holds a fresh human heart in one clawed hand as the fanged mouth in her palm bites into it, spilling blood down her arm. Golden light pulses at the center of the heart and sparkles through the blood rivulets. Another mouth lined with jagged teeth gapes open at the center of her external ribcage, and she holds her translucent, partially skeletal bat-like wings at a low, casual angle. OC, Mori Image of a red half-fiend woman with long red hair pulled into a ponytail sitting in a pinup pose on a burgundy skull chair. She wears a spiderweb corset in such a dark purple it's nearly black, garters, and iridescent feather collar, and holds up a finger encircled in swirling, crackling purple magic. OCs, Lucita and Zoya Digital artwork of two backlit women holding each other on a grey and gold art deco background. The Latina woman in the left, Lucita, wears a smart dark grey suit and Panama hat as she romantically dips Zoya, a peroxide blonde white woman in a pink gown, who tips her head back as Lucita leans in to kiss her throat. In her right hand, Lucita delicately holds the handle of her silver sword cane, which she's driven through Zoya's heart and out her back, spilling blood down the back of the pink dress.

Altar prayer card for the goddess Diana. A rectangular card has a black border with parts of the Orphic hymn for Diana surrounding it as a border in white text. In the bottom right are twin arrows over a crescent moon representing her and Apollo. In the bottom left and top right are white outlined 8 point stars. Inside the border is a marble shockwave black and grey pattern with white outlining that forms an arch at the top with lining to look like columns on both sides. In the middle is a stag skull with painted antlers of a diamond and star pattern. Behind the skull are smaller 8 point stars and cloud ripples. Above the skull is a scraggly branch of queen Anne’s lace with small dots above. In the top corners are two constellations for Sirius as her hunting dogs and Roman numerals for 13 and 8 for the date of the Nemoralia festival. Victorian Ward - Black and white illustration of a Victorian wall with a scarab ward framed. The border of the whole piece is a torn paper. Inside is Victorian black and white striped wallpaper with damask type filigree in the black and smaller stripes and speckles in the white with small vertical black stripes on either side. In the damask pattern are slightly abstract symbols of infinity, an hourglass and other resurrection symbols. In the middle is an ornate rectangular frame framing a large scarab beetle with its wings out. On its wings are celestial symbols like Jupiter, stars and the moon. Around the scarab are peony flowers and branches of a tree branching towards the top left with a vine white line swooping in an out and around the frame in the same direction. The scarabs body is engraved like metal with filigree. Behind the scarab in the frame is grain shading grey over black. Dark Vibrations - Inktober 2022 black and white ink illustration. Plain rolling hills lead to the door of a building with a large central spire and a small covered porch. To the left side of the building is a three facet bay windows and the other windows have ornate stained glass. On top of the central spire is a lighting conductor in the shape of a 5 point star. In the highest window of the spire is stain glass in the shape of an eye. Converging at the start is a large vortex spiraling and expanding through the whole sky. The vortex is pulling party’s of the building up towards it and cracking parts of the wood and foundation. The vortex is casting light and highlights on the building and the tress behind it. Converging towards the building is a circle of 12 white bird silhouettes. Swatch pattern card on top of matching pattern background. Swatch card is a large white rectangle with a square swatch of the NESS magazine brand pattern I designed in the 2025 summer issue colour-way. Swatch card has font at the bottom corner that read “BABE&OAK endpage repeat pattern summer 2025 client: NESS magazine” and the stamp for Babe&Oak in the bottom right corner.

An illustration of a long haired man with elf ears looking somberly at the viewer. He has tear tracks down his cheeks. he is standing in front of a series of eroded statues, each of which also has tears in its eyes and is overgrown with foliage. The sky is red and ominous behind them. An illustration with a decorative white border. In the center, a large, dark gray skinned man with glowing eyes is lying on his back, and a much shorter man with pale skin and long hair is resting on his shoulder, nude and draped in a dark blue cloth. In the background, various versions of the shorter man are lying dead, with a ripple effect distorting them and the background. A group portrait of five men (two at the top, one in the center, two at the bottom), with each of the outer four looking yearningly at the man in the center. The top-left man has dark skin, red eyes looking away from the viewer, and black coily hair which is tied back with a red ribbon. The top-right man has pale white skin and long, silver hair and yellow eyes, and is wearing a black bodysuit mask over his mouth and nose. The man in the center has medium tan skin and long, dark blue hair with silver streaks. His eyes are golden. The bottom-left man has light skin, short black hair with a silver gradient at its roots, a mustache, and is wearing a decorative red rose eyepatch over his visible eye. The bottom-right man has light skin, blonde hair cut into a choppy jellyfish cut with curls at the bottom, and pale blue eyes. An illustration of a man with shoulder length wavy hair turned away from the viewer, looking over his shoulder with a smile. He is standing in a field of tall grass, touching a stalk of amaranth with one hand. The image is framed with a decorative gothic border.
