A person of black skin, with pieces of wood and metal in the body hang from a hinge using their legs, and using their tail -which is covered in vines- to hold to a column. Their face is covered in a metal mask. They wear green jeans, a brown vest, brown mountain boots, and a blue cape that is falling down. If you know Fragged Empire, they are a Zhou named Zeno. Two groups of pixel art monthly challenges. One is filled with christmas items and the other is filled with multiple fantasy swords. A sleeping person using a blanket as a pillow against a wall. They have green skin with lighter green scars, long brown hair tied up in a bun, tusks, long downward ears, and a brown long slightly fluffy tail. He wears a brown leather jacket, a white shirt, brown jeans, and brown shoes. A woman stretching her arms. Her skin is golden brown, with golden tattoos. Her hair is blonde and her eyes blue. She wears purple loose clothes and golden bracelets and rings. If you know the Stormlight TTRPG, she is from Iri.

Some environments I've sketched up! Really proud of these, they're all for the same planet so there's a nice bit of variety in places to worldbuild. #fantasy #worldbuilding #art #yonderverse
A drawing of a rural farmhouse. It is a brown building with a red roof, built around the stem of a giant flower. There is a field of flowers to the left of the house, and a mountain in the background. Two cows sit on a grassy field, one yellow and one pink. A drawing of two boats drifting between bushes on a lake. There are bright blue flowers growing in these rows of dark green bushes. There are mountains in the background, and a clear blue sky. A drawing depicting a grey desert with silver streaks in the sand. There are tall brown mountains in the background, and a clear blue/white sky. A drawing depicting a ruined building in a forest. The building has two lit lanterns above an archway. It is covered in moss, and there are dead trees in the background.

For more context on the people, I recently re-wrote my article on them!

Oanie
Sophonts native to Karkhala. They have displaced trillions of people from their home planets, and so have alienated themselves from the entire Yonderverse.

scary orangutan people are the big baddies of the Yonderverse 💪
While I enjoy creating aliens, I wanted these to look like something a bit closer to home! #art #worldbuilding
A portrait drawing of the oanie, an intelligent species in the Yonderverse. They have a similar physique to an orangutan, with a flat brown face, bright orange fur, two small horns, and long ears tucked behind their cheeks.

The Sun elves have an interesting profession called Sandshapers, who are storytellers that use magic and sand to create animated figures to tell their stories. It is said that their beautiful chants create optical illusions that transport you to exotic places!

Next article for #WorldEmber. And it couldn't be other than about the Sun Elves. I've made some shiny drawings for it , because I adore my little elves in the oasis of Karia. I sincerely hope you like them and the article itself!

The easternmost elves, the indigenous habitants of the Kingdom of Unhellion, perhaps the most sophisticated of all the elf Kingdoms.
