Khoshekh got a good report on his annual checkup today, she said he's in great shape considering he's ten!

Though he needs his teeth cleaned again already.

Had to doodle this during today's episode. So enjoy this stupid thing.

I just now realise Pin should be covered in blood too but oh well. Someone cleaned him up.

I've been rewatching C4 this week & in a cooldown Brennan mentioned making wing guards for Thimble to prevent unwanted grabbing...

Presenting the Gympie-Gympie Pixie Wing Guards to prevent non-consensual touchies.
#criticalrolespoilers #criticalroleart #criticalrole
Art of a pixie wing covered in vine-like shapes. The text describes wing guards designed for Thimble from Critical Role made from the veins of the gympie-gympie plant which is covered in tiny hairs or needles. These needles embed into the skin and cause intense pain lasting for days, or can be shed by the plant and inhaled, which is also unpleasant.

Reminds me of the Hugh Jackman magazine thing. It's the difference between superhero Jackman and romcom Jackman. Threatening Jackman and huggable Jackman.
On the left is a fitness magazine targeted towards men, featuring a shirtless picture of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. He's very buff, with visible veins, and looks dehydrated and threatening. All the text is about muscle gain and workout tips. On the right is a 'Good Housekeeping' magazine targeted at women. There is a picture of a younger Hugh Jackman, he's wearing a blue sweater and smiling gently. He's fit but in a more healthy-looking way. The text all refers to articles of a variety of topics, and the article regarding Jackman is about his marriage.

I've only been able to make one piece so far this year, because my fatigue has been so bad. But I keep a list of all the things I still want to draw, and I love seeing what other people are making. Other people's art keep that fire to create burning for whenever I can get back to it!
A drawing of my Mourn Watch Rook from Dragon Age: Veilguard. He's wearing leather armour that has similar vibes to a formal suit, though the metal is a bit tarnished and the leather is cracked and peeling. He has violet eyes and dark purple hair styled in a half up-do, and he's trying to look debonair as he tucks a glove into his sleeve. A character sheet for a cloistered scholar satyr called Larkspur - a level 3 swashbuckler rogue, and level 3 swords bard who is a champion of Xenagos. The sheet has a full-body picture showing his gear, a portrait and lineart of him playing a lyre. It shows his stats, the design of his weapons, some pride flags indicating he's gay and a quote: "Wine isn't necessary for life, but it is necessary for living" A purple-skinned fey creature standing in a playful pose with a cheesy grin. They're wearing tattered overalls and a floppy hat. There is a frog in one of their pockets who is very displeased about his current situation. A portrait of a beautiful, young-looking woman. She has purple hair, light-purple eyes and spiral horns. Her hair is done up in a bun with a golden ribbon, and some hair is falling down her left shoulder. She has simple, gold jewellery and is wearing a burgundy Dorian Chiton. She is smiling faintly.

Show us your favourite character designs you've made 🌙✨

Definitely still my druid's level 11 look. Unfortunately that campaign has been shelved, but I want to draw what I think she would have looked like at level 20 and I think a lot of what I have will stay the same!
Tattoo and scar reference for my level 11 circle of stars druid, Rhys Galanodel. It shows runes for the three forms stars druids can use, the chalice, the archer, and the dragon. A character sheet for Rhys Galanodel, a level 11 druid. her hair and staff are glowing, with star-like lights in and around them to show what it looks like when channeling her magic. It shows Keldan, a Valenar Hound's true fae appearance, as well as going into some information about her. A character sheet for Rhys Galanodel, a level 11 Circle of Stars Druid. It shows her detailed armour, Staff of the Woodlands, Bag of Holding and other various items - some powerful and some sentimental. It also shows her companion, Keldan, a Valenar Hound who has grey fur and is wearing a teal bandanna that matches Rhys' armour. An outfit sheet for my stars druid, showing a casual outfit, her armour, some magic items, and then a cold weather cloak made from a dire-wolf.

Trying to make one piece a month this year! But for January it was my Rook! The outfit he switches to after recruiting Emmerich and deciding Mourn Watch armour wasn't as stuffy as he'd remembered it... (simplified a bit).

He has violet eyes and dark purple hair styled in a half up-do, and he's trying to look debonair as he tucks a glove into his sleeve. Three characters from Dragon Age: Veilguard represented as floating heads. Bellara says, 'Rook, you're dressing so fancy since we got back from the Necropolis!' Rook replies, 'I'm quire sure I have no idea what you're talking about.' He's looking at Emmerich who stands to the side, confused by the exchange.

It's #PortfolioDay and guess what, this time I actually have an up to date portfolio somewhere!

Hi, I'm Kis! I like cats, fantasy, games, & books. I draw things because if I didn't, my brain would be full of pictures.

I rolled for 2025 and got an 18!
Considering last year I got a 4, hopefully this means better things to come.

Gonna sneak in here just before the deadline with my boy Lark! I think you could do a great job with my charming party boy! (And gratz on 6.2k~!)

Khoshekh in 2015. Picatrix in Feb 2024.
And both of them now!

If you see this, post a vampire and pass it on.
A silly doodle of a vampire with grey skin, red eyes and white hair crouching upside-down on the ceiling. His white hair hangs straight down and the text reads 'Spider Vamp, Spider Vamp.'

I was so anxious about getting Khoshekh to the vets on time today that I showed up half an hour early. But it worked out because the person before me cancelled!

He got his vaccine and a good report from the vet! (Picture is from the other week cause he's mad at me & hiding right now).

Ooh have I got horns!
The last one is a little old but I still love it.

She has simple, gold jewellery and is wearing a burgundy Dorian Chiton. She is smiling faintly. A pale-skinned tiefling with purple hair and golden eyes. One of her hands is blackened and sprouting a few dark feathers. Behind her is the faint silhouette of a raven. A strange, purple-skinned fey creature holding a frog near their mouth, their tongue is out as if about to eat the frog whole. A text box reads: "POPPET STOP! That will kill you!" and then smaller, "How many times do I have to tell you not to eat random frogs?!" The frog is very unhappy about the situation he is in.

I've also been a tiny bit distracted by Veilguard...
Rook from Dragon Age Veilguard. He has curly dark hair, stubble and is wearing leather armour in the style of the Antivan Crows. He's looking slightly sinister and smirking.

Oh snap, I hit 100!

I've been in a prolonged art funk lately, but weirdly I've had the inspiration to start writing again. The downside of that is I don't have anything to share here.

But here, have a picture of my boys. Picatrix (left) just turned one, and Khoshekh (right) just turned nine!

Oh wow, we made our de Riva's so similar, we even chose the same scar! I'm also romancing Lucanis, naturally.
Clearly it means we both have good taste!

Oh gosh maybe this'll give me the oomph I need to pick this one up again. I've been working on it since -April- and I just got Stuck. It's a re-do of a piece I made in 2019. Initial thumbnail and where it's at currently.
A rough, thumbnail sketch of a woman with blonde hair, she has a halo that has rays of sunlight coming off of it. Her dress shows the colours of the sunset, with most of her skirts showing a starry night sky. A neater sketch of a woman in an embroidered dress, she wears a laurel of flowers. At the bottom is the rough idea of mountains and forests indicating the woman is Big. The artist cannot get the hair right.
