been a while
The scene is dominated in red, as a devils lounges on an obsidian throne, holding a golden goblet out with an inviting smirk. The membrane on his large inverted wings juts up and catch much of the light, while the more solid "fingers" arch towards the viewer and remain tonally cold.

10 - Why are we walking?, featuring Galmron (left), then from bottom to top Thonis, Dralgon, and Tios by @space-salaman.bsky.social

Characters had a limited color palette before the details and gradients came in, seemed cute and helped with the cohesion later on!
The hotheaded (literally) Galmron stares at Thonis, wondering what's gotten into him trying carrying their pet (and ride home). He doesn't disclose a clear answer, letting him guess eitther a sense of pride or a dare. Dralgon slumbers peacefully regardless, enjoying the nap. Of course Tios still fits and is thus unbothered, concocting the sufferings of tomorrow. Character base colors and shadows, sharing from 11 colors overall. Some base colors are shadows in another and vice versa!

9 - Common ground in Craft, featuring Kabob by Wipyjun (IG, deviantArt) and Instar (my character)

Weird perspectives sometimes give me enough space to add multiple characters while equalizing their presence in a piece. The lighting and characterization in their roles here are just fun to realize!
A blob of glass glows with heat, showing the two artisans working on the project. On the right is a cloaked robot keeping the piece in place, her accessories green and copper in color. Beside her is a chimera centaur with blue scales and dark brown hair and fur, carefully twirling a string of molten glass around the main blob while preparing to cut the stream. His snake-tail positions beyond the drawing watches from a distance.

8 - Dead Weight, starring Shoro Coro and Cane Gluvar by JomoOval (deviantArt)

There's a whole webcomic about these guys I couldn't read in time, and I may have slimmed down the raven too much for the perspective. Hand wings came out right though, and flying with fire magic is an awesome visual!
Wearing a sly smirk, the raven flies precariously in a diagonal position, opossum in tow as he's held by the back. Clouds swallow the scene, with a purple region illuminating the two. Stars fly alongside them carrying a red tint; a salvo of fire magic also conjured by the raven. The hapless rodent can only look down in horror, not even seeing the ground below.

7 - Catch of the Swamp,starring BiiBee Beaverson by Crimson_Leporine (Artfight) and Britny Scaks by Zyrdalf (Unvale)

This one finished itself by asking so many what ifs, each one more stupid fun than the last.

Started with "what's in the net?",
Responded with "who's in the net?".
A goblin fisherman with a beaver hat pulls in a net cast in the swamp, shocked in fishing out what appears to be a bug hag influencer, illuminated blue by the phone she holds up. She seems unfettered by the whole net situation, maybe even posting about it to her active, trillion strong fanbase of bugs.

6 - For the Memories, featuring ice cream parlor, "Claire", and Retro by KaleidoShark404 (check him out in Artfight!)

The energy on this! Was blasphemy to draw with the lights and perspective. Also just wizened up with how to manage layers just then, looks rough to me but still a vibe nonetheless!
A groupie of a trio in a skating rink blaring with colorful lights, taken enthusiastically by a woman utterly ready to party. A guy of dazzling colors and retro attire poses for the camera while pulling a struggling guy in ice cream uniform (his free arm sloshing in the air — it's made of ice cream). Most of them will look back to this memory in fondness.

5 - Exclusive Interview, featuring Frayed Mantra by @slowedmountains.bsky.social

One look and I knew I HAD to draw her, then the sketch formed so quickly I thought it would've been more raw if I left it as-is. The circular focus to her is just too good to pass up. Would wanna refine/redraw this.
A tiefling monk in white and green grab stares directly to the viewer, raising a rapier and readying her spare hand. The perspective bends the rapier to appear curved. The hint of a background in mint and white also swirls around her.

4 - Trio, featuring Tenor, Soprano, and Treble by PartiallyPeculiar (tumblr)

One of my favorites! The intensity of the aqua is strongest when rain strikes a surface and flies up slightly. Treble (tallest) wears that blanket to to avoid injury via spines, so his actions here come in layers! Love it!
The scene drowns in aqua due to heavy rain, and yet a few souls have made a quick refuge after running out of options. The orange-tailed mono whips up a quick meal, and the blue-tailed mono snuggles around layers of fabric, her tail illuminating its patched patterns. Meanwhile, the tall, spiny mono covers the former with his pink-tail and props up his purple blanket-cloak to cover the latter.

3 - A Streak of Red and Blue, featuring Lancelot Featherlight and and his giant blue jay Mordecai by JustATopaz (can't find socials ><)

The flow came so easily, some anatomy break made the weapon grip sketchy... still looks more fun this way!
A jerbeen and his giant blue jay companion zip through the sky, his weapon and scarf trailing behind as their point of origin quickly shrinks behind them. While the jay and sky nearly blend into blue, the uniform is strikingly red, hailing from a supposedly extinct legacy of Featherlights; skyward guardians especially trained against magic. As the only Featherlight sailing the air, the legacy lies on him.

2 - Glimmer in the Dark of Night, featuring Elias by @sukkosukoyiko.bsky.social

I was playing with perspective enough as is, coupled with the blue scheme I wanted to make something that would appear eerie in the dark until you look at him long enough
Two eyes glowing like stars illuminates the subject; a young entling in casual wear stares up at the viewer, legs curled up and and in one hang holding (more growing) a berry. He looks with curiosity, possibly wondering how he was found in the middle of a forest washed in darkness.

Here starts Art Fight draws (should've posted my link here whoopsies)

1 - Life of the Party, featuring Tame by mexbushida (Instagram)

Last year had me draw 3 attacks in a day, of course I had to make it up, and this piece set a good pace
A girl with opossum features strikes an energetic pose with her drum sticks; cross armed dual wielding arched with one leg still in the air. Her loose shirt and hair flowing as if she had just arrived to the pose. Colors streak around the blue backdrop, ranging from faded purples to popping orange and yellow.

Friend requested I draw an angel PC in BG3
a muscular angel in gold and white stares up defiantly while stepping down on a cloaked figure. A couple golden weapons also appear lodged into some hooded figures as well — a zwëihander and a morningstar. Together they paint the floor red, the carnage appearing small and far beneath the victor and his gilded weapons.

didn't learn my lesson that dark don't play nice with phone screens, but here we are
In a scene of pure black, a man rises out of a pool, barely visible due to the strange light in the pool. As if having heard a sound, he lies low and looks to the side in caution in contrast to his bulky frame. He dons a necklace that resembles a snake head and tail meeting at the center.

Old concept art of this was too cute for DnD
A sketch of a lizardfolk standing and looking up, his large tail pointed up and his crooked jaw bearing a smile. His pink scales on the limbs are rigid while the ones on his face and trail are rounded and layered, almost free flowing. While the final design had angles and edges, this one has none. A sketch of the same lizardfolk with a color scheme closer to the final look. Sand color scales replace the pink (but not entirely), while a mix of purple and maroon for the underbelly. The limbs bear stripes and blends of both sand and purple. I should use this guy some other, happier time.

(slight violence and blood ahead)
Got a request for a Yuan-ti barbarian, had no right posing them like this and yet...
A muscular yuan-ti halfblood stands (slithers) at the center of the frame, his hood flaring out displaying snake heads as is resembling anathema. His lower almost torso looks plated before transitioning to a huge, colorful snake tail, red inward with the scales reflecting all sorts of colors. His hands mercilessly clutch another yuan-ti by the head, squirming helplessly as he's further coiled by the tail. Blood drips from the grip, but also on the victim's claw puncturing his captor's right arm.

Drew a Terraria character from a Thorium run, I like to imagine he's a satyr or smth
A Terrarian satyr bard eyes something while seated on the ground, donning gold bracelets and a loincloth. Sitting on his similarly yellow, messy hair are a set of violet antlers (fake, it's a worn headpiece) and two small red horns. More notably, waist down he's covered in violet fur. A smaller drawing depicts him being chill with a thumbs up, and another looking focused on playing the organ.

"Summer Alt" to my DnD character as an excuse to play with anatomy 👀
Skylle Auburns, a half-elf paladin in green trunks sits on a bench behind the beach sunset. His left arm is slung behind the bench, the orange sky highlighting his torso as he lightly bends. Between this, the spread legs, and the cocked head with a smile, his demeanor is one of invitation to whoever he may be looking at.

[old - Apr 2024] DnD oneshot character Obol: as imposing as this guy may appear to be, the guy's VERY scared of the dark.
A traveler carries a torch in a campsite, illuminating the marsh and one of its denizens. Hanging atop on a tree, a sand-colored lizardfolk watches over the camp, as if ready to jump down on the person. Though Obol is framed in almost a sinister light, the lizardfolk is only interested in the torchlight. "The dark can hide any monster, or every monster", is what he would say if prompted about his intrusion.

[old - Apr 2023] Anemo Hilichurl Rogue! (Genshin Impact)
An Anemo Hilichurl Rogue holds onto the inflated anemo slime, slightly tilted in its ascent due to the added weight. The hilichurl sways back, cloak swishing opposite as he tries to stabilize himself. Nonetheless his blade is unsheathed, ready to strike right after.

[old - Oct 2022] Berry Bros (Wildfrost)
Two brothers (with pink skin and berries for heads) are in a moment of relaxation. The hulking Big Berry rests his arm on top of a wooden club, a simple smile (only ever) forming on his face. Lil' Berry stands on top of the club, swinging to the side while grabbing his brother's scarf for balance. With a wide smile, he brandishes a wooden sword.

Was requested to draw a vampire doctor, hypothetically stumbling to his boyfriend's powerful tome...

#dnd
Having found the warlock's tome, Randall draws power from it as it hovers in front of him. The book and sanguine goblet not only lights the doctor, but also reveals a large creature. From the smoke, a long arrangement of segments and legs would take form near its summoner, an ethereal centipede manifesting at his will.
