forever Convinced that the butler and king from the match three game royal match are gay lovers. dude has his butler immortalized in the stain glass windows of the throne room. there is no heterosexual explanation for this
The throne room from the match three mobile game Royal Match. Purple drapes hang around the upper edges of the walls. A checkerboard red and off-red carpet with gold trim covers the center path to the red throne. On the back walls, there are two stained glass windows. The left features the king and his dog, and the right features the king’s butler The butler, king, and the king’s dog from the game royal match sitting around a desk. The butler is presenting the king with a velvet pillow atop which sits a blue jewelry box. Inside the box is a collectible card.

“Father… you were the only good thing Rapture ever gave me”

After 240+ hours of work, I have finally finished painting this! I love Bioshock 2 so so SO much, and adore the parallels between the first and (one of the possible) last scenes in the game 🥺 #art
A digital painting of young Eleanor Lamb as a child in a white pinafore dress, pulling along Subject Delta as he looks out at his own reflection through the windows of rapture. In the middle of the painting, a rush of water gives way to clouds surrounding Eleanor ten years later, wearing her big sister diving suit as she pulls subject delta by the hand now that they have escaped rapture and are on the surface. She looks like she’s about to cry. A digital painting, closeup of subject delta’s diving helmet. It has an ellipse shaped porthole in the front, with two headlights below it. The light of the ocean casts a tint of blue over everything A digital painting, closeup of teen Eleanor Lamb looking like she’s about to cry as she’s pulling her dying father Subject Delta along A digital painting, closeup of the detail on Subject Delta’s leather diving glove

I had a chance to light the Ancient Grotto in Emerald Stair while working on Avowed! This is the first map I have lit for ANY game, and I feel so grateful to have had the opportunity to do so. :D

You can see more of my lighting work on Avowed here: www.artstation.com/artwork/RKO41y
The entrance to a grotto in the game Avowed. Asparagus-shaped fungi grow in the ground near the edges of the cave walls on the right. On the left side of the frame, stalactites hang over an aquamarine pool of water surrounded by orange cup mushrooms. A bridge made of four long wooden boards leads to the deeper part of the cave; above it, light shines through a hole in the ceiling. Bottom left text: Avowed logo Bottom middle text: ©️2025 Obsidian Entertainment Inc. Bottom right text: Obsidian Logo A large combat arena in Avowed’s ancient grotto map. A bear sick with the Dreamscourge and covered in mushrooms naps in a sunbeam in the middle of the image. Holes in the ceiling let light shine through in the foreground, and past a two-story set of arches and pillars that have spiraled patterns and embedded rocks sculpted into each one. The pillars have green, leafy foliage climbing up the length of them. Branches hang through the holes in the ceiling, which is made of brown-grey rocks. Bottom left text: Avowed logo Bottom middle text: ©️2025 Obsidian Entertainment Inc. Bottom right text: Obsidian Logo A crawlspace in Avowed’s ancient grotto map. The ground appears wet and muddy, highlighted by a torch planted into the ground at a slanted angle, leaning right towards the path ahead. The crawlspace has reddish-orange rocks lining the walls of it, with light green shelf mushrooms embedded in the downwards sloping cave walls. Bottom left text: Avowed logo Bottom middle text: ©️2025 Obsidian Entertainment Inc. Bottom right text: Obsidian Logo An oasis in Avowed’s ancient grotto map. Light pours in through a massive hole in the cave ceiling, shining on a wall of overgrown leaves coming from a twisted tree. Four blue butterflies flutter in contrast to the greyish rocks of the background. A skeleton, the body of Maxim Vidarro, is laying face-down on a weathered old blue blanket with his arm outreached towards his journal. An empty bottle of wine is partially buried in the ground—he has been dead for at least ten years. To his right, the walls of the grotto have purple fluorescent light speckling the rocks, and an empty amphora lays tilted on its side.

ELEANOR!!!!!!!!!!!
A NECA Player Select Series Comic Con 2010 Exclusive action figure of Eleanor Lamb from Bioshock 2, still in the packaging. She’s wearing a diving suit with leather leg braces and arm braces and white canvas sleeves. She has chin-length black hair and frankly looks horrified. The packaging of the box has key art of the Big Sister with her red lens on her diving helmet, and the name “Eleanor Lamb” in an art deco style font. There is also a tiny doll figure sculpted after the doll she made of Subject Delta as a child, it has a baseball for a head, a watch face for the center of its “helmet,” and the body of a baby doll. To the right of the tiny doll is a “cured” Little Sister figure with a purple pinafore dress and light skin, with her dark hair tied back into a pony tail with a white bow.
