Finished Commission: Covert Snacking!

Finished Commission: Covert Snacking!

A flat-colour commission for @AdSatyr of their gargoyle-satyr sneaking some food from a feast he was meant to be guarding.

Surely they won't miss the feast that much, right?

This is a little different to my usual commission work but it's a cute and funny scenario

Status Update!

Holy cow I haven't been very consistent with updates, have I?

Well, better to write about it now.

I've gotten my second shot of Moderna vaccination, made a Pride month comic, and I've been doing commissions on my AD Twitter account, which aren't necessarily proper to post here.

So, what does that mean for this Patreon?

Firbolg-sona for Firbolg February!

I wanted to try and update my fantasy persona and potentially use this guy in a story I'm writing!

He's got a benign crystallization jutting from his chest that is a signifier for some of his more unique abilities, like conjuring glass-like cards and seeing into mystical planes.

2020 Art Summary

2020 Art Summary

I posted this on Twitter as well but I thought it would be fun to look back at the kinds of works I did in 2020.

I'd like to get better with backgrounds, but I really do have a lot of fun with designing characters too.

I guess we'll see what comes next and I'll continue to practice!

Drawing-Photography Project: Ventures Through The Fog

Hi! It's been a while since I've been on here, but I wanted to show what I've been up to in art school this semester.

The assignment was related to the concept of "Imagined Geographies"; photography used to construct myths and different narratives about space that aren't necessarily grounded in reality.

As my own take on the topic, I...

Meet Anpu!

Meet Anpu!

A new face for a story I continue to try to write!

He's a jackal-like fellow with a stylish sense of fashion, a sharp wit and an eye for character.

Between his hobbies as a stylist consultant and manicurist, Anpu also uses his spooky-looking energy abilities to negotiate and dispel wayward spirits that manifest from people's emotions...

Flat Colour Character Designs!

Flat Colour Character Designs!

It's been a while, so I thought I'd share some designs I've done recently!

The big lizard fellow is a gruff bodyguard-bouncer sort that I donated to a friend's Weird Wild West campaign.

The fluffy firbolg friendly face is a character design I was commissioned to do for a client's bard character for their DnD game!

Finished Commission: Kliff - Snow Owl Forms!

@Sp3qt0r commissioned me once again to design a new form for his voodoo practitioner, Kliff!

In this form, he gains the qualities of a snowy owl, including talons and a feathery cloak that can turn into wings!

I had a lot of fun designing the outfit and working with the feathers for this one.

Finished Commission: Durak the Orc Reference Sheet

@TheJontosaurus on Twitter commissioned me to design a new orc lad for him and I had so much fun figuring out how to bring this gentleman to life!

Boisterous but earnest and good-hearted, I'm sure that Durak has a good home with my client.

Commission Finished: Full Body Full Colour!

Done for @Sp3qt0r on Twitter, I had the pleasure of designing a new form for his voodoo practitioner character: Kliff!

In this form he channels the Loa powers of Agwe and La Sirene, both spirits holding domain over water.

The fish-patterning on the sarong as well as the effects of the scales and water trident were all a lot of fun to...

Finished Commission: Aerina the Sylph of Light!

Recently did the finishing touches on this pretty little lady for a client's DnD character and he ended up really happy with the result!

I'm actually happy with how I'm able to touch up backgrounds a bit more now and the shading in this piece was a good experiment for different layers of shadow. The wings were also very fun to do.

Ollaruk in some different outfits!

Ollaruk in some different outfits!

I got some outfit suggestions from Twitter for Ollaruk and they're turning out really well!

I've only got one or two more to do but I thought I'd share the work in progress.

Along with the outfits, some people made requests to be doing things with Ollaruk, so a follower had his bull-man and Ollaruk having some summer snacks together!...

A client wanted to update some concept work revolving around his vodou practitioner character and his alternative "loup-garoux" (werewolf) form.

The black and red colour scheme is meant for when the character is channelling a particular kind of magic/spirit in the story, whereas the brown and white colour scheme is a bit more neutral.

Since I missed Easter yesterday I think it's also a bit more important to say happy Easter, but I also wanted to acknowledge some of my creative roots today as I followed Homestuck for a long time.

Seemed only fitting that I did a little doodle of John relaxing.

Even when we're stuck at home, at least we can have our heads in the clo...

It looks like Ollaruk had a bit of a workplace mishap while working on the Splash Potion of Disarming idea he had.

At least it's only eating through clothes!

This one's a little bit saucier than what I normally do, but it was fun to do and I really appreciate everyone's support!
