Inktober 2025-18 "Deal".
Cheated a bit and used color markers.
Bonus head sketches. Trying to do these when I have some time over. Sometimes with photoreference but these are are not.

A painting of a tall pine tree looming over large, pink, moss-covered rocks. In the distance, there are other trees, rocks, and water in the distance. The sky and the water in the painting are blue. The painting is in a simple black frame.

First non-digital painting in at least a decade and a half :O ... trying gouache for the first time, as well... the blue is crazy in real life, not sure how to capture it digitally.
#gouache #physicalmedia #art #landscape #painting #bluesky
A gouache painting of a green, rolling landscape with a mountain range in the horizon and a blue sky with billowing white clouds, kissable like cotton candy. Artist holding up a gouache painting, trying to capture the amazingly deep blue, but technology fails him and the Disappointment can be tasted in the air.

Greyscale markers and B&W inks. I'm starting to really like the Posca white pens. The elf lady was done with Copic markers that has a brush tip, allowing layers of shading.
#markers #ink #art #physicalmedia #fantasy #sci-fi
Black and white rendition of an elf. Done with Copic markers, Posca white pen and brush tip ink pen. 60s style woman in black and white. Rendered with marker pens, Posca white pen and brush tip ink pen. Scrappy robot in black and white. Done with marker pens, Posca white pen, brush tip ink pen and fine liners.

Some quick faffing around with markers and ink. It's quite satisfying how big they are... almost like between a brush and pen. Some of the colours on the lady didn't look less vivid scanned, I think it's because they are flourescent.

Did a very self indulgent paint job last night for my newest #D&D character.
Meet Scruffles the Wizard. It's going to be very interesting to play a wizard without hands

A session working on Rowan, @trottimus.bsky.social's OC. Two faster pieces and one I worked a little longer on. @highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya fan-art.
#madewithrebelle
Rowan in the dark, backlit by a window. Panicking, Rowan realises just how afraid he is of being scared. Rowan finds a shiny friend in the river. We see his amazed face in the reflection of the water. Rowan sees something that reminds him of a funny piece of shale he saw once and chuckles to himself.

Sometimes
you just feel inspired to draw an NPC that has only appeared in a @highrollersdnd.bsky.social episode for about 3 seconds.
Especially when @sherlockhulmes.bsky.social threatens to kill her.

We would protect her at all costs.

@highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya Campaign fan-art. @amadeusfink.bsky.social's OC Xantheus.
#madewithrebelle
Xantheus rises from having been forced to grovel by a domination spell and glowers slightly off screen. He has summoned his spectral, runic wings while the taint of crown steel burns from within his arm.

I loved this little skeleton guy by @madeleinefjall.bsky.social 💀 I vibe with his anxious energy and he has a great design! Love the big hat! 🤩 Very fun attack to draw!

[ #art #artfight #teamfossils #skeleton #druid #dnd #undead ]
Attack on the skeleton Druid Nicodemus. He is a full undead skeleton with hair still attached to his skull. Most of his body, except for his face, is covered by green, patterned robes and a short orange cloak. A brown hood wraps wound his head. He wears a large sun hat and a black veil drapes down to obscure his face. He is draw as if he is caught off guard and surprised.

Another @highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya fan-art (very grateful for the inspiration 🙏). Characters: @nanosounds.bsky.social's Gruff, Kalifris (NPC) and the boot of Xantheus (@amadeusfink.bsky.social). First go at Rebelle 7!
Gruff uncomfortaly seated next to Kalifris on a couch. Xantheus can be seen leaving for the afterlife (as per usual) on the right side.

New background I made for "1000: The All-Mothers Embrace" by @nktkrkv.bsky.social 🌝🌚🌚
Background for a visual novel. A midday landscape view from a mountain peak, overlooking a village and vast fields. On the left side of the composition, an apple tree leans over the cliff edge, while above stretches a deep blue sky crowded with clouds.

@highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya fanart. The sea dudes attack from the deep during the party's drama sesssion! Avast! About half a day in Painter 2023. #HighRollersDND #CrabsArePeople
Creatures from the deep attack the boat of the High Rollers Altheya group. A crab like monstrosity crashes out of the sea, sending salty spray over Xantheus who covers in fear.

I started playing Death Stranding (the first… I wanted to play the new one but I don’t have a PlayStation) and it’s pretty amazing so far.

Had to draw this hilarious scene from EP66 of @highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya 💀 Rowan’s descent into gambling! 💰

#AltheyaTDE #HighRollersDnD #rollonsunday #art #dnd #giant
Rowan from Altheya the Dragon Empire. A half-giant man with grey skin. His arms are covered in a green, geometric pattern. He wears brown leather armour, a large green scarf, and sandals. He is sitting on a chair that is too small for him, operating a slot machine made of purple wood. The symbol of the Lavender Gardens is upon it. He has a wide eyed stare as he turns to face the viewer, clearly caught in the act.

I'm an artist working as a graphic designer, creating is my life. But if the industry changed and told me I could only work using AI I'd change careers in a heartbeat. #fuckai when it comes to any form of art, it's a mockery of human creativity.
