sorry for no art in a while - I've been making dnd maps since I am now preparing to DM my first campaign.
Grid map of a nearly circular temple floor with mirrored portions of the centre cut out to make 4 small courtyards around a central room with grand statue baring a glowing halo and staff.. The floors are tiled teal and white patterns forming a walkway through the space dotted with small fountains along the inner side. Grid map of a large ship at night, lit by ominously green lanterns. The ship has a raised rear deck with strange engines on the back hull, two masts on the main deck, and a slightly elevated fore-deck. Cannons are mounted on the rear and front decks. Grid map of a ship interior featuring an engine room with large steel apparatuses and several bedrooms, 6 of which are private, 1 of which is shared with 2 beds, and 1 which appears to also be used as a laboratory of some strange kind. grid map of an enclosed stone dungeon-style area. it features many chambers off of the unlit hallways. One chamber holds a bedroom with a magic sigil drawn in blood on the floor. the one across from it has 3 cribs and nothing else. The largest chamber has many altars with strange items alongside a large coffin. The chambers after that include a hall of featureless human statues, a small room with a cauldron in a ritual circle filled with ominous black liquid, a circular room with a glowing brass orb flanked by fish fountains, and a long chamber with nothing but a large glowing crystal.

Still piddling about with the illustration: but decided to break the artists block by going back to ye old faithful character portraits: slightly redoing this man's face and getting him his devil design!

Rough sketch of a young man's portrait. He is dressed casually, has long loosely braided hair and several ear piercings in addition to one on his left brow. The sketch is made of several layers in different colours, increasing in opacity as the drawing gets more refined. Rough sketch of a demonic man's portrait. He is dressed in a high collared shirt, has long loosely braided hair and several ear piercings. In addition to conventional devil horns and snake-pupil-ed eyes, he has curving marks on his cheeks and forehead and several protrusions along his jaw which is split in the middle. The sketch is made of several layers in different colours, increasing in opacity as the drawing gets more refined.

My darling Luqa and gremlin shithead Quin. The fake hostage noble/bastard son of a traitorous family, and the chaotic crime lord/secret revolutionary.
Illustration of a man in pseudo-historical dress sitting at the end of a dock on a misty day. A colourful city sits on a hillside across the bay behind him, a great castle of marble and stained glass high atop the cliffs. portrait of a long haired person looking cockily down at the viewer with a smirk. Their eyes are a vibrant sea-teal and their sharp nails painted gold on the hand that caresses their chin.

Congrats on 10K! that's awesome and well deserved!
Portrait of a red-haired person looking down at the viewer. Their expression is smug and their sharp-nailed hand caresses their jawline. Illustration of a man sitting on the docks at night. The cliff-side city is lit up across the bay behind him, buoys glow sickly green in the waters between. illustration of a cloaked man with short horns protruding from his forehead, his clawed hands stained blue as one holds up a revolver. The moon lights the night over the waters behind him. illustration of two chained men floating in abstract spaces. The left man is sleeping bound in silver, the right in tarnished copper - reaching for the other but stopped by a glowing barrier.

Pardon the probable pasta sauce on the paper version, but I've decided I like this old sketch well enough to try and start a digital render.

New #DnD oc Gildi the imp! Future familiar so long as my boy survives long enough to dual class into warlock.
#art #digitalart #illustration #ocsky #oc
Illustration of a purple devil crowned with golden horns perched upon a slender pedestal. Their scorpion tail coils beneath them and their wings surround their filigree adorned body like an open cocoon.

Well here's my #WIPWednesday for the week, designing a new DnD imp familiar for my future warlock. Their name is Gildi - pronounced as close to guilty as you can get it without losing the sound of the d.
#WIP #WIPart #sketch #drawing
Drawing of a scorpion tailed devil with many short sharp horns perched on a plinth of some kind. The drawing is made of several iterations from thick and rough lines to fine and detailed ones in different colours and opacity, the more opaque the line the more refined the drawing gets.

A pair of #caturday snugglers. You can't see my legs under the blanket but the boys are on my lap - though I did have to put a pillow over my feet because somebody was getting a little enthusiastic with the needle toes.
Photo of two kitties laying together on what looks like a lumpy sofa but is actually a blanketed human, their sweet little faces are looking at the camera.

An update on Madam Jack - final lines and the flat colour. Rendering is underway but not at the stage where it's pretty enough to share yet.

#oc #ocsky #digitalart #digitalillustration #art #illustration
Unfinished illustration of a dark haired woman sitting in a chair with one leg crossed over the other and a smoking pipe held aloft in one hand. Behind her is a bright circular window and dark curtains that billow dramatically into the room. There are also clusters of pigment dots corresponding to the colours of the scene.

Reminiscence - the blood on our hands

And here's Kida finished up, used one of my old geometric pieces for the panels on the wall.

Congrats on 9K! that's awesome.

I'm Crow/Corvo - I mostly do OC's (I have too many), I'd say I have a strong tendency towards fantasy settings with the occasional touch of sci-fi.
Digital illustration of two chained people floating in a divided space. One is bound in silver, the other in copper. The silver man sleeps in a fractured haze of copper, the other reaches for him from the void but is blocked by a shimmering veil. Digital illustration of an indian woman with braided hair riding a skateboard. She looks off to the side with a light smile, her body relaxed into the motion of the board. She is dressed entirely in shades of purple with golden adornments. The background is rough strokes of teal with sketchy purple graffiti lines - including the character's name Maya. Portrait of a woman facing directly towards the viewer. She has one hand tucked behind her back, and the other held in front of herself like she's preparing to bow. Her clothing is in dark shades of purple, with copper adornments including a great dragon's head affixed to a wide choker. Illustration of a smiling brown skinned person with bright dragon horns reaching forward, palm cupped around a burst of lightning that spirals gently outwards.

And now my darling Nimuel has been completed - going for an intermediary stage between the human and draconid forms from the group pieces.
