<>(Pt.4)"Daze" This Hellspawn Witch stuns her opponent, through a mental projection of her patron's alien gaze.
Really proud of this one, this time rendering came much easier. Also glad that I found the tiefling equivalent in PF2E. I LOVE them:)

A woman with demonic features and red skin, gazes ahead with glowing eyes and points towards the viewer, while restiing her other hand on her temple. Viisual distortions and colors swirl around and behind her. A giant eyeball is in the baackground. A dazed backlit man is seen below her in the composition

*This* is what concept art is, by the way. It's designing what everything in the world looks like. It's not a minor aspect of a project.
A fold out page from Paizo's Draconic Codex, depicting an omen dragon; the omen dragon is an antlered dragon with a large crystal "eye" in its forehead.

Wow, this is even worse. He outright says it's not helpful or useful really except in some vague whiteboarding pre-alpha sorta way but they're gonna keep forcing it in and using it as much as possible because it might maybe suddenly not suck and be a magical golden egg? WTAF @larianstudios.com

Hey @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team please unsuspend Goran immediately.

Goran is a great person, a great artist, and the whole anti-Palestine thing youre on is one of those "Ford funding Hitler" disasters you remember being shocked and dismayed by when you learned of in middle school.
An art piece by Goran Gligovic of a sword resting against a battered tree in front of a rocky dungeon entrance amidst a snowy field. The text says UNBAN GORAN GLIGOVIC.

The outline of the map of Palestine, formed by writing its Arabic name in red, on a parchment brown background. Anemone poppies are placed over where Gaza is and the piece is framed with the traditional Palestinian embroidery pattern for watermelon.

This has been a pretty long hiatus and I know its awfully late, but better late than never. After all, we still exist all year long💜.
Also, implementing the colors of pride flags to each character and making different summer fits was a pretty fun process :)

Here are some random faces I drew for practise today, a process I enjoyed more than usual. Also, loved trying more diverse faces. I might color this if I ever feel like it.

A colourful painting of my OC Xander with "artshare" in front of him in pale golden gothic font, between two stars. He's a pale man with golden eyes and long dark hair shaven on the sides of his head. A part of his tattoos of black flames and a lemniscate on the side of his head is visible. He is wearing black robes, three strings of golden pearls in his neck and chest and a golden crown of laurel leaves. He has an ornate sword in his hand, in front of a desolate marshland with russet grass, exposed rocks, and smaller hills with trees on them that have lost their leaves already. There's a white glory behind his head as if it the Sun seen as a white disk behind such grey stormclouds would have been brought to the foreground, to be in the middle of the mountains visible behind the marshland.

«Pathfinder Cantrips»(Part. 3)"Caustic Blast" After 2 months and A LOT of effort here is the next cantrip on the list.
This Proteankin sorcerer clearly knows that swarms have a weakness to area damage!
I added the aftermath too, the spell itself is more of a prop.Enjoy !

A colorful humanoid with serpentine features is ready to hurl a bubble of acid towards an approaching swarm of monstrous wasps. The explosion of said bubble of acid seems to disintegrate said wasps:)

Feeling lazy, here is a 100% accurate representation of the boss encounter of our dnd group with a buffed up sticky mimic. This is probably the best drawing of Bog I've done and nothing will ever top that...😔

Here is a practise drawing for a brush I instantly fell in love with. Loved trying something different for once. If I feel like it, I may expand upon it even more XD

It's high time I posted something different. It's for a comic concept and it's in the back of my mind for the last couple of years, cause I'm very hesitant about it. But I am beginning to find my artistic footing slowly but surely :)

Example 1: The Desire to bring sleep ((I transcribe the contents of the speech bubbles in the other pictures' alt text.)) (speech bubbles from up to down and left to right): -GOODNIGHT(*stylized with a moon and stars as background*) -I know I promised to quit maaaan... But look, it's not thaaat baa- -JAMIE NOOOO (*stylized text to show intense emotion, and vocalisation*) -!This was done purely for demonstrative purposes. She swears she only uses her power to bring peace to any fellow insomniac in need. (Text from left to right and from up to down): -WHO TF ARE YOU? -USUAL APPEARANCE -Zero self care -Chronic Insomniac -Common occurance to be 3 days sleepless -Love/hate relationship with caffeine

It's been a month-long hiatus, but time to get into rhythm! Starting with a redraw of my current dnd character Bog cause our group is scheduling after a long time. I really like the more decrepit vibe. Will also post the whole roster the next few days.

A druidic slender figure is standing with their legs apart holding a staff and with the other hand in a beckoning gesture. Their long hair and tangled beard as long long as their cape have an implied flowing motion indicating the presence of wind. On their right arm a mossy shield is strapped. A glowing green halo of particles frames their head. The stuff is decorated with different multicolored fungi, and it is crowned with a skull. Out of it multiculted misty tendrils emit that partially surround the character. A close up of the head. Really put an effort at the shapes and the flow of the strands of hair. A close up of the staff.
