Look at my beautiful (late) yule art of my OCs: Bael D'Nath Gra, and her beloved, Lady Dilelle Pendolrian!!! They're characters from my werewolf/knight thing and this is the first time I've drawn them. Very exciting 😁

#myart #ocsky #ocart #fantasyart #Beldin
Digital art of two woman holding each other in a close embrace as if they were in the midst of slow dancing together, and are just about to kiss. They are backlit by a warm golden light and are framed by deep green evergreen foliage s well as the railing and column of the gazebo they are standing in. One woman, Bael, has features vaguely reminiscent of a dragon, from metallic bronze skin and some scales, to horns and spikes framing her face, and amber eyes. She is is a dark burgundy dress and has a golden band wrapped around her head, holding her pale hair in place. She has one hand on the Dilelle's waist (the other woman), is looking fondly down into the face of Dilelle. Dilelle is back on to the viewer and is tilting her face toward Bael, eyes closed. She had her dark brown hair up in an elegant up-do, and is wearing a green dress with a high lacy collar and pearl earrings. Her hand is raised to twine her fingers with Bael's free hand.

Page 44 of my webcomic, Hex & Seal. Hex gives Jake a confused and concerned look, tilting his head. Jake stammers a bit, Um, didn't know that? Jake says, Well, uh... People tend to act like it's contagious. Jake raises his hands up to face level and wiggles his fingers spookily but his furrowed brows reveal the discomfort hiding under the silly demeanour. Y'know, like I'm emitting some kinda death spores. Hex looks down sadly. He's sorry to hear about people's treatment of Jake. Hex then raises his face again, giving Jake a small, compassionate smile, as he tries to left the mood. So they fear you'll pass on the death?

Made myself get some fresh air for my brain or whatever. I'm mad it helped, but not surprised. Took a pretty picture of the winter sky for reference. Kinda wanna try recreating it with markers.

(I could add a sketch of my oc from my fic in the foreground because it takes place in the winter and-)

It’s bad when I start inventing reasons why I should write an essay about how I interpreted a character/writing choice in the show instead of managing other priorities. Send help.

Not been here much because I’ve got a case of brain rot. I’m 16k words deep into writing a fic no one asked for while also trying to work on my numerous WIPs (so I can then do fan art bc I said nothing new and a whole fic is already a breach).

A digital illustration of Erik, the docksman, sits on the dock, gently caressing Goro, the merfolk's chin as they look cheerfully at one another under the night sky overlooking the sea. A short comic of Erik holding Goro's face as he encourages him. Speech bubbles: Panel 01 Erik: "Goro, you are enough." Panel 02 Erik: "You have always been enough." Panel 03 Erik: "You don't owe your father anything. You are, and have always been whole!" A digital illustration (2022) of Lyka Mae Ragasa, a younger femme tiefling donning a white and yellow dress standing in front of her older brothers. On her right, Datu, the shorter of both with upright horns, short black hair, leather armor and a black tunic over a green shirt. On her left, Ramil, the taller, but second eldest, with longer black hair tied back and a teal robe over a yellow tunic; on his back, he carries a kudyapi. A 3/4 angle illustration of a young non-binary half-orc/hal-elf with bespectacled pink eyes, light sage skin and silver capped tusks. They're wearing a yellow puffy coat tucked under a wide brown belt over leather armor. Under the belt is a red wine sash over teal poofy pants. They have a small pack on their belt and wear brown calf-high boots. They also carry a blue wide-brimmed hat.

She wears a long yellow open backed gown, her dark hair swept to one side as she looks up longingly towards Dean. One finger is hooked through Deans tie, pulling her closer. One the right is Dean, she wears a dress shirt with a black tie, and black pants. Her long blonde hair is tied into a plait fastened at back of the head with a large black bow.

Digital art of a characters posing against a spark purple and blue background with a sword in one hand, and a skull in the other. He has a dark blue cape, an open red shirt showing the majority of his chest, as well as his numerous pendants. He is wearing regular pants of a dark grey, but the lower part of his legs are protected by shiny metal armour. His hair dark blue and sweat back to better show his smirking face. He has small curling horns decorated both silver bands and chains, and star shaped glasses that are lowered to reveal goat-like yellow eyes. For someone wielding a weapon, he does not seem particularly menacing. If anything he looks like he’s posing for a bizarre fantasy fashion ad. Digital art which shows a stylized scene of two characters on a staircase, almost entirely side on, though at a crooked angle. On the bottom stair stands a man in a bloodied apron and rubber gloves, with a veil covering the entirety of his head. The veil is nailed in place by four finger sized pitons at the base of his skull. Above him, near the top of the stairs is a teenaged girl with chin length, light coloured hair, shorts and a baggy shirt. She is stumbling backwards in alarm, though something about her expression registers close to disgust. The light in the scene is the vibrant orange-red of late evening, and it casts rich red and purple shadows across everything. There is a graininess to the image, as if it were being viewed on an older television. Digital art of a dark cavernous room resembling some sort of shallow indoor pool with marble columns, and a dark arched entrance. In the entrance is a sturdy man in handy-man clothes with a flashlight. His pants are slightly rolled up as he steps into the dark green waters of the pool. The light of his flashlight illuminates a twisting serpent tail twisting in and out of the water, up over railings and around columns. From the ghastly blue-green shadows, the serpentine-creature’s upper body rises out of the water, humanoid in shape but with purplish skin. She stares back at the intruder; still and intrigued.

Werewolf death tarot card commission from a couple years back. Trying to get back to this more this year.
Werewolf howling and tearing themselves open at the chest revealing it’s skeleton coming out entwined with roses and mushrooms. The werewolf’s abdominal viscera is out on display, also with mushrooms growing out of them. There’s a simple rectangular card border with mushrooms and roses on the ends. Behind the werewolf’s head is the roman numeral for 13 “XIII” which is the number of the Death card in tarot’s major arcana.

Bust portrait of my fey oc Fiorlys (they/them). They have platinum curly hair with small horns and pointed ears with insect wings and gold jewellery. They are decorated with tattoos and are wearing rich, dark clothing and a black pansy flower crown. Textless album cover illustration for TTRPG battle tracks. A battle-worn knight wields a huge great sword to stay his enemy on a burning battleground. The knight is a bearded elf, with an eyepatch, and scarred face. He is sweating and bloodied, wearing chainmail and heavily damaged armour. Bust portrait of a kind old goblin lady with braided hair and a crown of leaves and berries. Amongst the foliage are tiny petal-like creatures that are playing, napping and exploring. Her neck is covered with a patterned scarf, layered over a thick, tasseled shawl. Illustration of a skeletal lich that has rotted away and is being overgrown by ivy, flowers and fungi. Its original legs have fallen away, replaced by new, branch-like legs that sprout from its back and carry the rest of the body like a spider. The skeleton glows from within, lighting up its skull and ribs as it raises one glowing hand and drops its jaw open to scream a spell at its target

A woman stands barefoot among trees set aflame. Her golden curls are wild and windswept, a strand passing across her face. She wears a golden corset and skirt which billows at her ankles. The fire behind her illuminates her. Painting of a woman with pale skin sitting in the sea on a rock formation. She has pointed elven ears. Her long blue hair cascades in waves down her back. Her soft purple gown shows off her figure and falls like water. A moon hangs behind her like a halo. She has stretchmarks on her thighs.
