Going back to finally finish working on my Astarion's piece 👀👀
A procreate's cropped windows is showing a (WIP) work in progress of a repaint of a frame from the movie Interview with the Vampire where Astarion is taking the central stage. Astarion, the vampire from the game Baldurs Gate 3 is looking slightly on the side of the viewer while a red stain of blood is tainting his mouth, preparing to drip down.

I shared all of this on IG asking everyone which one is your favourite outfit (it'll be hard but don't count the poses) so I thought about hearing your opinion here as well!

I can't do a poll so probably just write down what you think and I will gladly listen to it!!

I'm finally working on a redesign for my (favourite) OC Faas, people said it wasn't possible, and yet, it happened!!

Would you like to see some behind the scene of how I'm actually doing it?

hands hands hands

A (unfinished) painting of two hands on a black background. The skin is incredibly fair and covered in Lichtenberg figure scars, in them hidden two medical scars (one for each arm). A study of my changeling wizard, named Galen.

Congratulations on 8.3k!! That's a whole lot of people and you do deserve all of them!!!

I only have few and unfinished art of my OCs but I am working on some more behind the curtains, so, behold my bestest boy: Faas!
Not a mermaid; but mermay is the only time where I get to play with him!

Absolutely deserved, my dear!! ✨

I'm Heraldo your local friendly fantasy artist! My favourite thing to do is give life to worlds beyond our own and make some bold fashion choices while at it! I love painting characters but now that I'm free I'm focusing on illustrations so who knows!! ✨

I struggled a lot, in 2020 is when I started wanting to paint my art, I had no idea how and I had to work a bit to figure out a way!

I really hope I learned something!
Art at beginning of COVID A blue firbolg holding a hand to his chest while standing in front of a bush decorated with white flowers. Vs. Now! Commission work: a drow knightly warrior stands ready to deflect any harm with a tower shield decorated with a beetle. His armour is dark and reflective, light blue lights cover the entirety of it holding it in place like magic. The free arm is charging a thunderous strike, ready to launch. His face is serious yet shows how young he is.

Last but not least: the very rough 3D and base sketch before the colour and rendering process!!

Some close-ups!

For once I didn't have to render much cloth or texture details, but I learn that metal is even harder to work with!!

for a private client!

It was truly a challenge to give justice to a character with such complex shapes and materials, I even had to learn 3D sculpting from scratch to model the entire tower shield but I really like the results!!

New Outfit for my (changeling) Wizard's persona Raquïel!!
I can't wait to also draw how this clothes would fit their base form (Galen)!!

I hope you like them as much as I do, they are obviously just a sketch but I enjoyed painting the fabric!

A woman elf figure covered in fancy clothes. Her form are soft and plump while a dress made almost of taffeta and satin cover her body leaving a deep V cut open on her chest. Her make up is runny like she's been crying. The hair, long, are braided, almost reaching the ground. On top of the violet/navy dark dress, a bright red cloak covers her shoulders reaching the ground tailing behind her.

So, I'm pretty much speechless still but I wanted to show you my entry for Shenpai ( @shenpai.gay )'s Art Contest!
The theme was Pride and this is my personal rendition of it!

I'll try to be more in depth down below!!

#Shenpaint #pride #art
The picture depicts two winged figures, a young man and a woman sitting on a grass field with flowers all around, The woman is wearing a shirt with the bisexual flag on it. She is placing colored strings on the wings of the man in the pattern of the pansexual flag. The man is wearing a shirt with the aromantic flag on it and is holding a small black duckling that holds the gay flag. In the background a forest is visible and beyond it, a mountain split in 2 with a city built within it.

I wasn't completely immune to the mermay propaganda, but it took me way too much time to do anything, so now I'm just enjoying painting for me ✨

My dear Faas, who at this point appears more as a fish than the half elf he is (tehe).

#WIP #art #dnd #dndoc #oc
A work in progress of a merman looking straight to the viewer. He is looking rather lascivious to the viewer with a faint smile on his lips. Wet dark hair with white spots cover his face and neck. He is covered in various scars. The page is written kinda everywhere with notes about the art.
