We have got to bring back the trend of drawing your own characters in the arcane artstyle…

Here’s Ivy!!!

Sariel Meliamne, arcane archer.

Had a lot of fun with this piece, I feel it’s one of my best! Some improvement is needed with the face but that’s where I’m focusing next!

Oh and my next book I’m writing has the magic system built around the 17 bravais lattices because why would I ever make something simple for myself?

They’ll dissolve rocks to do stuff, use tempered glass swords, and have materials science knowledge far beyond their era.

Six magnetic poles why not

Too many snarky or arrogant dragons in fantasy that speak English…

I vow that wyverns in my book will communicate with mental depictions of fire flickering to the same vibe of their emotions or something like that.

They’ll also fly like F-35’s with afterburners

And have built-in speedometers

“Pave the path to Hell, Frost”

My dnd character, Eldorin Frost, and the entity. It’s decently easy to guess his class.

Lot of fun to draw. Very experimental on my part and it paid off! The face needs a lot of work, admittedly, but I’m still liking the end result!

Can’t believe I’m almost done with draft 3 of my novel

Looking like it’s gonna sit around 193,000 words… helluva drop from 300k and much better for it!

Just keep the title “Radiance in Ruin” in y’all’s heads cuz you’ll see it on bookshelves *someday* I hope

I’ve officially whittled my novel down to 200k words! (From 300k) Funny enough… the exact same chapter that brought me up to 200k in my first draft is the one that brought me down to 200k in my third.

Damn. Revising a fantasy novel is tough work. But hey! That’s a whole 100,000 words cut. Insane

I’m writing a fantasy novel. I’m nearly done. Then I get hit with a new idea and begin working on it immediately… temporarily disregarding all else.

When will this curse be lifted.

Ivy’s kinda like spiderman except she wouldn’t be allowed to visit birthday parties. (Lifetime ban at at least 4 different restaurant chains)

Here’s General Jenivel Stone of the Wyverix. You’ll get to read about it her *someday* when I finish that damn book.

I rarely ever draw fanart, but decided to give #malady from #divinityoriginalsin2 some love, seeing as there is criminally low amounts of art of her
