After 9 months of weekly sessions, we finally finished our playthrough 🥹 Here's the final comic I made about how I (Pistachio) got obliterated in the Iron Throne.
A three-panel comic. The first is a blue hue (to represent the underwater Iron Throne level of BG3 act 3). The gnome with a green face tattoo and prominent bald spot has a mischevious look as she pushes her drow companion away and towards the stairs. There is green text above her reading "Outta my way gayboy, I'm bout to get it --" The second panel is a mix of several fiery explosions. The third panel is a vibrant sunset over the ocean. Several sailboats are going past, creating godrays of light around their hulls and sails. Pistachio is seen in shadow, in the family guy death pose. She lays 'dead' on the beach, looking out over the beautiful ocean scene. The text above her reads "all of our troubles seem so small from here..."

saw that post going around with wrestler Maika & my gay little hands needed to draw it.

(accidentally uploaded the wrong version at first, oops)
two images side-by-side. The first is a picture of the Japanese Professional Wrestler Maika posing in the ring. She is sitting back, her elbow propped up on her leg and her finger twirled in her hair. The second image is a monochromatic study of the pose + shading from the reference image.

I made a pixel version of Kim Kitsuragi using the Wplace colours so I could smack it over my hometown.

digital portrait of a man cloaked in dark red. He stands in front of a dark red rectangle (shape for effect), looking over his shoulder at the viewer with green eyes that match the colour of the floating laurel crown perched in his hair. His expression is neutral. a digital painting practice of a screencapture from the linked youtube video. It depicts the singer Moses Sumney during a COLORS SHOW performance of his song "Cut Me." Just like the video, he is pictured against a vibrant red background as he sings directly into the mic. He is wearing all black, with a black, knit fringe scarf around his neck and a leather coat draped over his shoulders. His hands are pinched in emphasis in front of him as he sings. The lyrics of his song "what cuts me, cuts me, cuts me cut me, cut me, cut me," are shown against the background behind him in cascading order, fading from white to black text. A portrait of a DnD Fighter. She stares menacingly at the viewer with ruby red eyes. Her tan-dark skin is splattered with blood. Most of it is clearly from her adversaries but there is a trickle of blood from her own nose that is darker and glitters with subtle crystalline effect. She wears a blood-red shawl around her neck and has heavy armour atop her shoulders. Behind her is a sandy-brown background and two metallic rings halo her head for effect. digital art painting. It is a portrait of a woman against a background of tropical flora (specifically palms & monstera leaves). The woman's design is inspired by the Kulve Taroth (from Monster Hunter). humanized version designed by MuHut from. She is posed with her chest proudly out, showing off the gold scales which cover her chest & ribs as well as the stalagmite-esque spikes protruding from her sternum. She has short, dark hair in a cropped bob, glittering gold eye makeup (to match her scales) and similarly coloured lipstick. Atop her head are large, curling dragon horns that are turquoise with gold lines through them, fading to the same pale grey as the spikes on her chest. Her face is mostly in profile, but she looks sidelong to the viewer with lizard/cat-slit eyes (also gold. Her hand is poised near her face, showing off her long, sharp talons for fingernails. Her skin is brown and fades closer to black the nearer to her extremities, so her hand is a much darker colour and the back of her hands/arms are littered with the same gold scales.

Hey artists, QRP with your sketch vs final!

A plain, grey background with a circle cut-out at the centre. Within the circle--and poking out through it--is exxvikyap, the BG3 NPC. She is a gold-toned dragonborn with shining scales and grey colouration around her eyes. Her arm is raised up in a friendly wave. Around the circle (which has a green-yellow background to parallel the colours of her dragon-y face) is two simple quotes of hers: "HiiiiI!!!" & "Byeeee!!!" A character portrait of a gold-toned skinned man with blond hair and a swirling red face tattoo that trails down his neck. He is wearing a shiny, red robe with gold ornaments and holds a Spider Lyre on his hip. His eyes are pale grey and his expression is something between neutral and bored as he looks off to the side.

Some WIPs from a writing project I'm working on! 🧡
OC: Luis (AKA ຕ່າຍ), the rabbit with venomous fangs.
two panels featuring WIPs. The first shows a rabbit and a snake (specifically, Phanya Nak from Lao mythology). Both have matching, dark eyes with stylized lashes beneath them, radiating off like sun rays. The snake is winding and coloured orange and goes around the frame like a book cover (which is likely what this will end up being). The rabbit is white-furred against the white background. It is stretched in a dynamic angle, its one foot tangled in the tail of the snake. It wears a single, gold hoop in its ear. By the poses, the rabbit is reaching out, tentatively exploring the world and Phanya Nak is curled up defensively around it, protecting it from that same world. The second panel features a character card of my OC Luis. He is standing in a stance that shows he is prepared for combat, armed with a small dagger that has the hint of yellow snake venom on its tip. His name is featured in cursive writing "Luis" but behind it is the partially faded old name that he left behind: ຕ່າຍ (Tai). The faded, orange background features the vague silhouette of a sailing ship and gulls flying the air. Luis is bare-chested but wears a long orange robe (uttarasanga) reminiscent of a buddhist monk & dark pants. On his chest are visible scars that litter his skinny chest (his ribs are quite visible) including thick red scars beneath his chest, indicating top surgery. His hair is shaved down to just stubble and he looks at whomever he is preparing to stab with malice beneath a shadowed brow. His eyes are noticeably large and almost cute, juxtaposing his otherwise menacing expression/stance.

loving photo mode! feat. Pistachio + the whole squad
a BG3 screenshot that features my character--a balding, brown-skinned gnome with a green face tattoo reminiscent of a pistachio nut--with glowing red eyes doing two thumbs up to the camera with a completely neutral expression. A BG3 screenshot featuring my group session squad. All four characters are on top of the defunct fountain in front of Last Light Inn. Pistachio the gnome is laying face-down on the ground, ass up in the air. Montague the drow is posing dramatically, one hand on his hair and the other outstretched behind him as he stands in a lunge over Pistachio's prone body. Dagthar the half-orc is voguing beside him. Pel the dragonborn is leaping with joy in the air behind them. It creates a fun tableau of the entire group posed together.

I've been making little commemorative doodles/memes each week as our session reminders:
meme depicting a picture of two characters posing in the foreground while another character is getting demolished by imps in the slightly blurred background. The format is done like a FB post, where the poster says "out here living my best life." There's a reply from another character, calling out the downed character ("Monty is dying") to which the original poster replies "this ain't about him" A scene depicting our wizard Pel being confused as he flilps through his spell book. In the background, a cartoonish ogre is trying to eat the gnome character (Pistachio) while the other two companions rush in to help (one is jumping with an axe in hand, the other has a hand outstretched to try and send some healing Pistachio's way) A 3-panel comic depicting a common occurrence in our group session. First panel: in the background, one character is very poorly playing the lute. In the foreground is a half-orc woman with a question mark beside her head as another character, just peeking into frame from below (you can just see a hint of her bald spot in frame) calls her name with her thick, french accent (her name is "Dagthar" but it's written as "Dagthagh") Second panel: The gnome rogue Pistachio who notoriously looks everything and anything is shown to be overencumbered, with dozens of pieces of armour, weapons, ink wells, shields, etc... She is looking at Dagthar (who is obviously a warrior with higher strength) holding all the junk out with the expectation that she will take it in her inventory for her. Panel 3: Dagthar is drained of colour and poorly rendered as she grimaces down at Pistachio. Beside her are three dots to show her disquiet/annoyance over this situation she has ended up in.

In honour of Patch 8 today here's a lil comic from my group sess, where my gnome Pistachio met Halsin in all his glory.
#bg3 #halsin
A comic depicting Halsin from BG3. It is in the template of a 'draw your characters in this' comic. I wasn't able track down the OG artist from this format but if I do I'll link it in the replies. Halsin the druid is shown looking down at a small gnome character (who has a prominent bald spot, which can be seen in the foreground). Halsin is shown to be talking excessively, as shown by the wall of text behind him as he rambles on about himself, the grove, and lore-dumping about Act 2's Shadowlands. He is bare-chested, and it is featured very prominently. From this vantage point, the character is looking up at him and can see more of his hairy chest and large pecs than his face. His face is only slightly rendered while his chest is very detailed, showing where the character's eye is drawn. Then, in the second panel, there is a far less rendered caricature of the player character (gnome). She has a bald spot on the top of her head and inverse-coloured eyes (black sclera, white iris). There is no mouth, just the ouline of her head, her hair, and her eyes. There is a slight bag under each eye as she stares up blankly at Halsin. His ample bosom is casting a shadow over her face and the entire panel.

QRT your growth :)
2015 vs 2025 👑
[2015] A monochromatic portrait of a woman with long hair pulled over one shoulder. The art is done in sketchy lines, and cuts off at the bust in a stylistic triangle. The woman has dark lipstick, showing her slight smile, and she is wearing a wide-brimmed hat over her hair. [2025] a portrait that is much more detailed and dynamic than the comparison. This is a commission done for a friend's D&D character. She has dark brown, braided hair that goes down the centre of her head like the plume of a roman helmet. She is staring menacingly at the viewer with ruby-red eyes and a snarl over her face. Blood is splattered across her face and neck, and she is wearing heavy plated armour. Atop her armour is a blood-red scarf worn around her neck. She is shown against a sandy-brown background with an iridescent, golden halo around her head.

A sketchy doodle of Thistle from Dungeon Meshi / Delicious in dungeon. He has a little smile and mischief in his eyes. He is wearing his white, red, and purple jester outfit. Behind his head is a red tile which features white icons of eyes, symbolic of [spoilers] his eyes through the dungeon.

Realized I've never posted my first/main Tav!

Tavenir was a good-boy-golden-retriver wood elf druid who ended up having the most narratively perfect tragedy with Lae'zel. 💕
He was also accidentally Halsin's 2.0

#bg3 #baldursgate3
Three portraits of my BG3 Tav, Tavenir. The first is him sticking his tongue out against an olive green background, inlaid with a white Druid class crest. He is brown-skinned with dark hair that has a tint of red in it. He is shirtless, showing off his broad chest. He wears the hair that I think was called the knave braid: it is like a mohawk of braids (with the sides of his head shaved) that is tied off into a single, segmented braid down his back. The next is his portrait against a dark, red circle. It shows off his heavy black eyeliner, forehead tattoo of a glittering star, and the wrinkles that betray his older age. He has a scar over his lip and multiple silver hoop earrings that adorn his long elf ears. Finally, the third image of him is in the format of the "Cover them up slut" meme, which has a pop-in of Lae'zel's blushing face saying it to mimic the tiktok commenter of the original. It shows Tavenir with his chin tilted down to wrinkle it while he has an utterly blank expression. His ample chest is on display and shining in the light to emhasize that this man has TITS. He is against a blue background, complemented by similarly blue icons of his two favourite spells: mass healing word & owlbear shape.

THANK YOU LARIAN #shadowheart #laezel #bg3 #shadowzel
Laezel is getting her flower crown (pictured in the original post from Larian studios) woven gently into her hair by Shadoheart. Both are wearing their camp clothes and both seem to be tentatively comfortable with one another. Teasing, even. They both have smirk-like smiles on their face.

Harpy 🎶

My first Durge who started as a joke but quickly became one of my favourite playthroughs.

#bg3 #baldursgate3
Waist-up portrait of a half-elf bard created in Baldur's Gate 3 as The Dark Urge (AKA Durge). His expression is mostly neutral, with a slightly raised brow that reveals his personality of having perpetual, judgmental contempt for others. His tan skin has a golden glow that is reflected similarly in his blond hair. A red, swirling tattoo sprouts from his left eye like smoke tendrils that bleed up into his hair and down along his neck. His golden-hued hair is loosely tied back. Several stray locks frame his face with the rest of it braided back. His slightly blood-shot eyes are so pale that they look almost pure white save for his small pupils. Only a faint grey rim reveals where his sclera ends and iris begins. He was designed to be a golden reflection of his half-sister, Orin, really rubbing it in that *he* is Bhaal's true golden child-- not her. He is dressed in the Poisoner's Robe dyed ruby-red and accented with gold trim & buckles. It shines brightly in the light, showing how shiny the fabric is and revealing the web pattern that covers it. He poses tall and proud, one leather-gloved hand on his waist, jutting it out to the other side where he rests his Spider's Lyre (Stolen from Minthara, it's the one used to summon Kar'niss in Act 2).

Things that are entirely possible in canon

#howlsmovingcastle #ghibli #hmc
A monotone doodle done in purple depicting the characters Calcifer and Sophie Hatter from Howl's Moving Castle. Both are looking towards the screen skeptically. Calcifer looks more confused, Sophie does not look impressed as she hunches over her cane. Above their heads reads the text "are you wearing the--" in reference to the meme from Devil Wears Prada & Ignore the outdated watermark that says "Tayonetta" because that's my old art handle. Wizard Howl (AKA Howell Jenkins) is in a pussy-out sort of look. he is wearing a loosely fitted white shirt, evidently no pants, and black, high-heeled boots that go all the way to his hips. He is balanced precariously on a stool, one hand stabalizing himself and the other posed dramatically over his face. His eyes are shut and he is smiling, content and modelling as sparkles float around his face. His booted legs are propped up: one rests its high stiletto heel on the edge of the stool; the other is pointed way up in the air. Text above his head reads "-- the Chanel boots? Yeah, I am."
