here's our concept sketches because i think they're neat! we both made sketches on paper and then i collaged them together to make our composition.
pen and pencil drawings that look like they have been cut out from their pages and overlapped like paper dolls. they form the same image that was described before, except the swirls don't fill the sky and their are lilies at the bottom of the composition

if you see this, post a monster.
an digital illustration of five red figures with halos melting together at the torsos. some have distinct arms legs and hands, and some are nearly completely merged with the rest. the figures are framed by black and white glassy tiles that seem to be part of a wall. thorny vines with grape leaves are growing up the wall and around the figures.

I draw dnd characters! these are some of my favorites so far. hopefully i'll be drawing more soon dnd stuff soon once the next campaign i'm playing in gets started (max in the middle illustration will be for that campaign!)
to the left of the image a blonde elf in armor is laying in the grass with their eyes closed. surrounding them is their walking stick, cloak, and beaded leather bag. a large black bird is flying overhead casting a shadow below. to the right of the image is a section of text in ornate lettering. the text reads: Paladin Subclass Oath of the Ancients The tenets of the Oath of the Ancients have been preserved for uncounted centuries. This oath emphasizes the principles of good above any concerns of law or chaos. Its four central principles are simple. Kindle the Light. Through your acts of mercy, kindness, and forgiveness, kindle the light of hope in the world, beating back despair. Shelter the Light. Where there is good, beauty, love, and laughter in the world, stand against the wickedness that would swallow it. Where life flourishes, stand against the forces that would render it barren. Preserve Your Own Light. Delight in song and laughter, in beauty and art. If you allow the light to die in your own heart, you can't preserve it in the world. Be the Light. Be a glorious beacon for all who live in despair. Let the light of your joy and courage shine forth in all your deeds. a gnome character with two bottles of mountain dew and venus de milo for scale. the gnome is about half the height of the statue. they have short salt and pepper hair. she is standing on one foot and tugging at her tie and fidgeting with her tail a notecard annotating the character's name reads: M. (honorific) Ellis (given first name) Euphonia (name of an honored relative) Lamont (name from parent) Remington (name from other parent) Maximillian "Max" (chosen adult name) Robinson (family last name), Esquire (legal title) underneath this there is a stick note that reads: pronouns: they/she class: order cleric race: gnome occupation: lawyer a half elf character sitting on her bed in the early morning light, dropping flowers from her hair onto the ground. the mirror behind her creates a halo around her head.
