A memorable scene from the one-shot I DMed these last few months... Outshining everyone with their most beautiful dance #dnd #art #ocssky
A blond half-elf (Tatin) with a red shirt and flowy green, patterned cape is dancing gracefully with a grey-haired human (N.S.) wearing greenish-brown tattered clothes and red goggles on top of his head.

Forever together but the pain never truly goes away... #dnd #art #occsky
Charles (with blond hair) and Grim (ash brown hair with light tips) are embracing each other, both firmly grasping the wrists of the ghosts of their respective past selves. Young Grim is holding is hands up, ready to cast another fire spell, and young Charles is holding two knives, ready to avenge his family. Their present selves are wearing matching wedding rings, shining with the colors representing each of them (pink for Grim and purple for Charles). Long ago, Grim had caused a fire out of despair and rage for his biological father, that accidentally killed his beloved younger brother and Charles' wife and young daughter. Seven years later they met again, fell in love and discovered their stories were closer than they thought. Still, after fighting with the grief, guilt and pain from their past, they overcame it all to let the love they have for each other blossom, and eventually married each other. The drawing is framed by orange blossoms (representing Charles' wife Lorena), a lily-of-the-valley (for his young daughter Layla), forget-me-nots (for Grim's younger brother Vivi/Megveil), wilted iris (for the part of themselves they lost in fire) and a broken ornamental sword (that Grim left in his father's bed before starting the fire, implicitly telling his father before his death that the fire was intentional and that Grim was the one who killed him).

BROTHERS - Part 2/4
I've always wanted to do both of their backstory in comic format (they're both my dnd characters!), this is just a snippet but I feel like comics are the best medium to do it... Please enjoy!!! #dnd #ocssky #art

BROTHERS - Part 1/4
Last month I made a 12-page comic in two weeks, under the theme "the end", following Grey and Vivi as the brothers read a new kind of book for this night's story-time. I'll be sharing the pages little by little here!! #comic #ocsky #dnd
Vivi, the younger brother, gently puts a toy crown on his older brother Grey's head. A toy sword rests in front of them, and they are surrounded by a flowery frame, with forget-me-nots in every corner. The titles reads "BROTHERS, tales from brighter days" Grey is choosing a book and bringing it back to Vivi's room. The title reads "BROTHERS, a bedtime story" Grey's dialog reads "Vivi...? It's me, I'm back!", whispering

Cowboy Grim and his pretty mare, Darling 🤠🌺 #ocsky #art
A framed illustration of Grim in a cowboy universe with his mare, Darling. She has a dark coat with a lighter brown nose, and has a lot of equipment attached to the saddle. There is a large dead tree behind them in silhouette. Grim is wearing a pink shirt and a brown cowboy hat, and has a short scarf around his neck. Around the drawing is a desaturated pink/purple/green frame depicting strawberries, barbed wire, stars, azaleas, rosemary flowers, the sun and an american badger, with its corresponding pawprints.

A collaboration between @mielothe.bsky.social and myself, for Jack's birthday!!! ✨ This is their character Charles in a greenhouse he definitely would build in the sweetest of all universes #art #dnd #ocsky
A painting with two scenes, both framed with intricate flower designs. On the left, Charles (Jack's dnd character) is picking a raspberry. His left hand is scarred from old burns, and he has a thin golden bracelet and a cute beaded bracelet, with pink and red pearls and a raspberry bead. This side of the frame has blue violets, stars and leaves in a wavy pattern. On the right, Charles is sitting, trimming a bonsai while his ermine Cupcake is napping on the table. They are in a sunny greenhouse filled with different plants, such as heliotropes, an orange tree, wisterias, a strawberry plant (with no strawberry) and various leafy plants. This side of the frame imitates stained-glass windows and is filled with forget-me-nots. On the bottom of the frame, surrounded by azaleas is a wooden plate that reads: CHARLES DUMARCHAND

Mein, a little character I'm developing for a comic project 👀 #oc #ocsky
Multiple drawings of a grey-haired character (named Mein) with brown eyes, wearing a phtalo green short scarf and purple top with an intricate brown leather belt, beige pants and long black boots. They are using magic in one of the drawings, creating a tiny flame to light their way, and another drawing is of their green and purple grimoire.

Slowly coming back to life (me, not the cuties in the pic unfortunately) #dnd #ocssky #wip
Work in progress drawing of a family of three standing in front of a portrait of a different family of three. Lorena, the mother, has her attention taken by something off-screen while Charles, the father, is laughing with their young toddler. In the portrait, a red-dressed woman is surrounded by her son and husband.

Hi #PortfolioDay!! ⚔️
I'm Mars, an illustrator who loves DnD and pretty frames!

🔹 Links: linktr.ee/mars_imelo
Illustration of Megveil, my DnD character, a fighter with a rapier and lightning magic, with two of his role models: his dead older brother Grewis on the left and the mercenary V.S., his brother's old teacher. On top is written "YOU CAN LOSE", "YOU CAN CRY", "I STILL BELIEVE IN YOU" Illustration of Yansef, a dark-haired rogue with brown skin and blue clothes, framed by orange decorations, a ship with a dragon bow in the background. Grim and Charles, two cowboys, kissing on the lips as Grim prepares to leave on his horse, both framed with decorations, orange blossoms, strawberries and their respective firearms (two revolvers for Grim and a rifle for Charles). Illustration of V.S. and Charles, both the same character but in different universes where their story took different drastic turns, framed with decorations like orange blossom and a burning book, their respective swords and items (a longsword and empty wine bottles for V.S., a rapier and his ermine companion Cupcake for Charles), their respective hands reaching out of flames. On top is a half-scratched nameplate, where Charles' full name was written, only "--MARCHAND" remaining.

Collection of sketches of them 🩵⚔️💙 #dnd #ocsky #art
A collage of four drawings of Megveil, my dnd character, and Yansef, his NPC boyfriend, all pictures framed by pink decorative drawings of roses, stars, fish, a ring and Nithi, Megveil's dragon familiar. On the top-right, they are riding a horse together, Yansef is whistling and holding the reins while Megveil rests behind him, arms wrapped around his waist. On the bottom-right, they are sleeping peacefully. Megveil is on Yansef's chest while he gently holds him. On the bottom-left, they are play-fighting. Megveil is on Yansef's lap and trying to grab his turban, unsuccessfully. Yansef is at ease, smiling, while Megveil is tense, trying hard to win over him. On the top-left, they are kissing, lips gently pressed together. Yansef's hand barely touches Megveil's cheek, and they are shyly blushing, as this is their first kiss.

The familiar has warm grey fluffy fur with darker grey and white in some places, little horns on top of its head, a long tail and translucid wings.

Down with the Arch Consul 🔥 (birthday gift for my dear friend Miel of our dnd characters!!) #dnd #ocsky #art
Three characters from a Dungeons & Dragons campaign are having a toast, Megveil a human fighter, Fenrik a tiefling investigator and S'asha a tiefling artificer. Fenrik announces "Down with the Arch Consul!", the words written on a wooden board. Behind them is a discreet pinboard with maps, documents, newspaper articles, various pictures pinned belonging to the investigator. Around them, a decorative frame adds more context to the drawing. On top, a landscape depicts a marble city, home of the Arch Consul, next to a lake where the moon is reflected. Above this section are the seven symbols of every member and every branch from the Arch Consul. On the sides are various flowers, with on the left column the silhouette of Grewis, Megveil's brother, and on the right column the silhouette of D'omynec, S'asha's father, both standing in front of large flames. On the bottom left is a young Megveil escaping a burning mansion, asleep on a horse. On the bottom right are villagers trying to escape as the streets gets engulfed in flames. On the bottom center, between the two, is an owl delivering a letter, presumably the order to kill all the villagers depicted on the right signed by the Arch Consul. Above the entire bottom section are the words "STEP OUT IN THE BITTER COLD" and "WATCH HISTORY UNFOLD".
