I found some old fan art I did of October Santerelli's story Glimmers in the Night. This is the main character Jeth, the witch's son, pre and post the events of the story. Go check out October and their excellent work at: @okwrites.bsky.social

Drawing of a young man before and after an arcane transformation. On the left, he has dark hair, wears a long hooded coat and fingerless gloves, and carries a messenger bag. On the right, he appears more confident, his skin more saturated and his hair white. His coat is more tattered, but is covered in sparkling star-like dust. He holds an arcane jar in one hand that he is looking at with a somewhat cheeky expression.

Made these for a friend a while back. It's Mae Borowski from Night in the Woods! Two facets of her, at least. Really oughta replay that game at some point, especially now that it's autumn... 🍂

3/3 More profile pics. I rocked another elfy looking one for a while that I edited down and recolored from a fuller illustration. I like where I landed recently, will probably keep it a while until I get indecisive again. Ever evolving, ever elfing ahead.

2/3 More profile pics thru the years. As you can see, I did variations on a theme. Girl girl, elf girl, devil girl for Halloween. Oughta do one of those again sometime. 🎃

1/3 Thought it'd be fun to do a retrospective of the various profile pics I've made for myself through the years. The first is the oldest I could find, then I tried something vaguely Disco Elysium-y before settling on a comfy standard I kept for years.

The last of these pen and ink experiments I'll share for the moment. Had an idea for an armadillo dragon and just went nuts. Tried to make this look a lil vintage, like something you'd find in a weird ttrpg zine from the 80s.

#PortfolioDay #inkdrawing #armadillo #dragon #fantasyart #vintagestyle
A giant armadillo-dragon steps over the hilltop, bathing the land in bilious fire. A tiny spearman is rushing in to fight it while an archer takes aim nearby. A civilian cowers beside a knight with their shield and morningstar up, and an elven wizard in the foreground takes a break from reading their tome to look at the viewer.

Two gay bank robbers coping with the disappointment of a heist gone wrong. They'll get 'em next time, probably.

Two would-be bankrobbers hold hands before an open vault door, one consoling the other. Behind them in the vault, a pedestal is empty of its treasure. Someone clearly beat them to it, but at least they have each other, and some leftover dynamite.

A match struck in the gloom. Another foray into digitally-colored pen & ink.

Also, apologies if I'm flooding your feed with this big ol' backlog. Figured I'd strike while the iron's hot on Portfolio Day, but I promise it won't always be like this. 🙏

Another old depiction of my OC Mal. Had a little fun getting vaguely vaporwave-y with this one. When the world's on fire, might as well smoke up and gaze wistfully into the dusky distance.

#PortfolioDay #penandink #OC #vaporwave #surrealism #cigarette #lighter #characterart
Drawing of a girl sitting on top of an upside-down triangle, looking through a rectangular window at a surreal landscape. She wears socks, jeans, and a sweatervest, and is smoking a cigarette. Its smoke wafts up through the window, out of which we can see a heavily-wooded hillside with a radio tower in the distance. An enormous cigarette lighter the size of the hillside rises into a sunset sky, its flame blazing to the heavens.

One of my favorite traditional ink and digital color experiments I ever did. This one depicts my fave OC Mal, a trans girl embattled in a world that serves up nothing but battles.

Our view is from behind her, down a strange corridor. She wears a backpack and carries a nail bat over one shoulder, and is looking to the side thoughtfully. She has freckles and winged eyeliner, and her dark hair is kept up in a half-ponytail, a streak of grey running through its front. Beyond the doorway is a hazy expanse of green and sky, swarming with clouds of bats.

As with the drawing I posted before this, this was from when I did more physical pen & ink drawings and colored 'em in digitally. Hurts my hands to do much P&I these days, but I cherish these stupid things all the same. Gonna post more shortly.

Drawing of two teenagers running away from something offscreen. One is dressed like a greaser, with a ratty lil mustache, a slick pompadour, and a leather jacket. His friend is dressed in a button-up shirt, has big boots and a bowl cut, and is flipping someone the bird.

An ode to tabletop gaming, a hobby that's forever shaped and bettered my life. It brings people together like no other, and I can't think of a better way to spend time than pretending to be wizards and elves and shit with my friends.

#PortfolioDay #ttrpg #tabletop #roleplayinggames #inkdrawing
A drawing depicting a group of teenage kids gathered around a tabletop game. Miniatures are scattered across a grid and the table is littered with notebooks, dice, and snacks. Behind the GM screen, the GM evokes a scene that appears behind her. In the scene, a gargoyle grabs a character by the cape and drags them away, while their traveling companions struggle to help. The game's players look nervous, communing among themselves about what to do.

A lil pack goat I drew for a Skyrim-themed 'draw this in your style' challenge a few years back. He brings me joy. 🧀

Figured I'd also post my banner image, the same one I've used for years. It contains the sigil tattooed on my right hand - my first tat, a promise I made to myself when I turned 30. It's called the Eye of Nyx, representing a hope for safety and rest in the long nights to come.

A witchy background for zoom that I never ended up using, back during one of my shittier jobs. It's a space I'd like to inhabit during rough times under late-stage capitalism. I hope you like spending a lil time here too. 💙

An interior scene of a witchy space cast in the gloomy blue light of a rainy day. A progress flag hangs in the window over a cabinet, atop which sits a Baphomet plushy, an open book, a teacup, and a cat gazing out the window. To the left is a shelf stocked with tomes, a dog skull, a potion, and a vintage cassette player.

This piece is very important to me. I completed it to mark my 30th birthday - freshly freed from an awful relationship, on my own for the first time in a decade, and fully embracing my transition. I hope to carry on this energy for all my days. 🏳️‍⚧️❤️‍🩹

#PortfolioDay #transart #zodiac #transhope #virgo
A drawing of the embodiment of Virgo, represented with angel wings, demon horns, and flowing hair. She wears a shoulderless summer dress, and carries a stalk of wheat in one hand and a bunch of grapes in the other. Throughout the drawing is a subtly written quote by Julien K. Jarboe: "Why does God create grapes and wheat, but not wine and bread? God does this because God wants us to share in the act of creation". It's a quote that's always resonated with me, and has meant a great deal to me in my transition.

Art I made for my fellow players in an old tabletop campaign. I adored their characters and wanted to do a lil piece for each of them. L to R, we have a swashbuckling artificer gnome, a highly secretive warlock, and a good, good sun boy.

Art I made for an ex who definitely didn't deserve it. I was nonetheless proud of it. Was supposed to be me on the left and ex on the right. Nowadays I prefer to think it's just some random furry trans gals. Careful who you give your heart to, y'all.

Also, here's some bonus art I did for the artificer class. It was based on a character a friend played, inspired heavily by Dr. Robotnik. It was simply too silly to finish, but let's consider it an honorable mention.

#PortfolioDay #linedrawing #d&d #artificer #characterdesign #drrobotnik
Line drawing of an artificer that looks vaguely like Dr. Robotnik. He wears a suit of heavy blast armor with technological pieces - including a tesla coil backpack, a power glove with a gem in it, and a power core at the breastplate's center. He holds a ray gun. On his head is a helmet and goggles, and his face is dominated by an outrageous set of muttonchops.

Finally, the last of the core classes! A classic wizard, ready to slay in more senses than one. ✨

A more brutal take on a hexblade warlock - introducing the eldritch berserker. With their dragon bone battleaxe, they shall cleave a path for their patron to emerge into this world once more.

They wear a helmet that vaguely resembles a beetle and obscures their face - save for their eyes - in utter darkness. Over one shoulder is slung an enormous battleaxe made from dragon bone. Their right hand resembles a shattered claw, the eldritch flames of their patron empowering their dark quest.

A sorcerer who leans a lil into warlock territory. Sometimes you're born with powers you don't understand, and it's one helluva mystery trying to figure that shit out.

She smokes a cigarette and wields a shortsword, and her left hand glows with a dark, sorcerous power.
