Right, about time I did this - hi!! I'm Nat and I draw fantasy art!

I'm usually inspired by my own D&D characters, and I'm trying to make things as dramatic and cool as they are in my head. I hope people are happy to be around while I'm trying to do that 💖✨
A scene of a study lit by warm light. The foreground shows a ginger gnome (Helfi) on the right, leaning their upper body across the table top and resting their left arm out in front of them while their right, a gold prosthesis, is tucked in and being used to rest their face. Helfi is watching their mechanical bird companion (Berty) sing a tune, the both of them haloed by the window behind them. Further to the left of the foreground a small mechanical suit sits unused atop a stack of books. The background contains shelves of books, as well as different knick-knacks: an old golden prosthesis labelled "ol' reliable"; a pressed flower; an alchemy set up; goggle hung up on a tool pegboard; an unclear framed portrait; and a gold and glass, syringe-like gun. A landscape painting showing a wizard blasting a lightning bolt. They're flanked by a crackling storm cloud, small sparks of lightning are shooting out and illuminating the surrounding clouds, and it billows away from them from the force of the blast. The spell itself is a bright blue and white, glowing and shooting off frame in a dark environment. The wizard is moving backwards and their hair, long, dark and braided, is flattened to their back and the ends fly from between their legs with the force of their movement. A single hand is outstretched to cast the spell. A black and white painting of a drider from the waist-up. She is naked, and holds her left hand up in front of her chest, looking down at her palm with wide eyes and a too-wide open mouth. She has eight eyes, a crescent moon on her left cheek, and her mouth, full of sharp canine-like teeth, tears into her cheeks, joined by a few strands of flesh. She has striking, silk-like white hair, that falls behind her and over her left shoulder. A red-skinned tiefling, her right hand reaching up, her tail lightly coiled under her, and floating in space with her left leg outstretched while her right is drawn towards her torso. She has a classic, pointed devil's tail, adorned with three gold rings, and curled ram-like horns - the tips of which are black before fading into her red/pink skin tone. Her tail and other limbs share the same black to red gradient. She wears a primarily black outfit, with an asymmetrical cloak, different length boots, and dark trousers, embroidered on the seams with celestial-style imagery of stars, moons, circles and suns. Her top is a white/cream colour, with a gold trim around the collar and on either side of its fastenings. She is smiling, a gentle but happy expression, and her eyes are wholly white and glowing, with a third, vertical eye on the centre of her forehead. Her dark hair is billowing behind her, and she has bangs that rest between her horns.

Seafare --- Elven Migration

-- I think all of Ben McEntees illustrations influence my colors here a lot. Was a nice challenge working more mono colored for once.
Fantasy illustration for a Tabletop Role playing game project. Illustration depicts a society of elves migrating through trees on a rickety bridge, with long legged mechs walking above carrying elderly, children, and royals.

Quick doodle of one of my favourite #OC from an original setting. I gave them a bit for a "makeover".

I really enjoyed the Frankenstein (2025) movie that came out recently! I thought the costumes and the sets were so beautiful!

QRP with your #sketch vs final artwork!
Really rough, shitry digital sketch laying out the basic idea for the following artwork. Who fuckin knows how I managed to interpret this scribbly garbage. Digital artwork of OC, Victoria Sweet, a more mature femme fatale with long black hair with a champagne streak, sharp teeth and nails, and mouths where mouths don't belong. They wear an elegant blood red dress decorated with strings of pearls and various jewelry, and pose with a human heart in one hand and skeletal hands on her hips.

A rough sketch of three teenagers running down a city street Three teenagers (back to front: Mimi, Gentu and Rebel) run down a city street on a clear day. They run on a cracked, yellow pavement past a pizzeria and other stores, all looking over their shoulders at each other or something that has caught their attention.

A Persona 5 fanart painting of Joker and Ann sitting in their homeroom class. The view is through the side window and Joker is looking out of it towards the viewer. He has his cat Morgana hiding inside the desk while the other students lazily sit in the background.

A zombie swinging a large tombstone around. He as green skin, with scars on his nose and left cheek, and wears a simple dark outfit, accented with red and large metal spikes on his shoulders. A page spread of a full body and move set sketches. The character is a zombie, swinging a large tombstone around. He as green skin, with scars on his nose and left cheek, and wears a simple dark outfit, accented with red and large metal spikes on his shoulders. The sketches on the right side of the page show his tombstone being swung in an arc; a movement animation of jumping down into a grave and popping back out with his tombstone; and an ultimate attack consisting of slamming his tombstone into the ground, raising others in an area of effect around the impact.

#art #oc #ocsky
A digital portrait of an Asian man tilting his head upwards ever so slightly while holding a red eye above his face, close to his missing eye. He has gray hair and one dark eye that is looking at the camera. His lips are slightly parted and he has a silver piercing on his lower lip. He's dressed in a black nondescript jacket with a white turtleneck and he wears a skull earring. Two of his fingers are prosthetic. The background is gray with some pink impasto textures and there's a circle decorating around Su-jin's head, with a small bird sitting on the branch.

Great article, as always.

I've been playing around with the new Affinity Studio since it was released. TLDR; It's good. Very good. How long will it stay that way? It's still too early to tell.
