My OC Xander portrayed as the High Priestess Major Arcanum of the Tarot, inspired by both the Marseille and the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot. A pale man with long dark hair and tattoos, here he is sitting/crouching on the ground, as if he's slightly moving away from the viewer while looking at them, one hand on the ground, another at his face, almost pointing towards his right eye that is covered by a luminous white flower affixed to his face. His left golden eye is visible, and a drop of red liquid is falling from his lips, from the pomegranate he ate, that is in pieces on the ground around him.
His outfit is largely inspired by one of ARTMS member Kim Lip's outfits she wore during their Dall era. He is wearing black leather clothes: a hood with golden spikes at its edge, a top that exposes his collarbones and arms, a fingerless glove with a golden chain at his elbow on his left arm, pants that leave a part of his thighs visible stitched together with red laces, and knee-high laced platform boots with golden eyelets. He wears a red choker on his neck, and a golden chain from which a shining mirror is hanging. Some of his tattoos are visible (see the comments below the piece).
Behind his head is the Moon, and behind the Moon are dark veils that hang from two columns, a black and a white column, similarly to the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot's imagery of the pillars of Boaz and Jachin, where they symbolise dualities like severity and mercy. They are sparkling with stars and flowing motifs, some of which come to the foreground, like the star obscuring Xander's tatoo of the astrological symbol of Mars,  and a crescent that echoes the crescent Moon. Behind the veil and the Moon a part of the Cosmos is visible, a spacescape with orange-brown dust clouds surrounded by bluish illumination and many bright stars.

A portrait in colour of Director Krennic standing in front of his creation, the Death Star, with its targeting systems right behind his head. His hands are clasped together, with his pistol in his left hand. Behind him orange light and dust is coming forward, spilling into the foreground, covering him partially. Behind all of it is the dark starry sky.

A coloured painting of my OC Xander, a pale man with long, dark hair, tattoos, and jewelry, sitting on an ornate brown-gold throne. He is wearing a golden draping over one of his shoulders, leaving the majority of his torso visible, along with a deep red draping on his lower body. His tattoos on his arms are visible, with dark fiery motifs, a skull with a parchment coming from its upper jaw, and the astrological symbols of Mars, Jupiter, and the Sun, the rulers of the Zodiac signs Aries, Sagittarius, and Leo, on his arm that he is resting on the armrest of the throne, with his hand facing us. He is wearing golden jewelry: two collars on his neck and three on each of his upper arms, and he is wearing nipple piercings with golden chains on his upper body. Behind his throne a segment of a simple wall is visible on the lower half of the painting, and on the upper half of the painting there are mountains and a blue sky with clouds above the wall. The back of his throne is like a gateway to the darkness of space, it is pitch black with small glowing stars seemingly coming out of it. He is slightly turning towards the side, and his eyes are covered with a whisp of yellowish flare that appear to connect him to the Sun behind his head.

A black-and-white painting of my OC Xander, a man in water up to his waist, approaching towards the viewer. His eyes are not visible, black liquid is pouring out from the place where his eyes should be. He has long dark hair that he shoves back, the sides of his head are shaved and tattooed, and he has several dark flame tattoos down his neck, shoulder and arms, along with a motif of a parchment and a skull holding a parchment with text on his left shoulder. Ports are visible on his body throughout (he is a Space Marine OC). The dark liquid from his eyes have accumulated behind him as he's approaching, and with his hand he seems to direct its flow forward, too. Behind him is a black hole enclosed in an armillary sphere with ornate rings. The front, horizontal ring has the Roman numerals XVI, XVII and XVIIII on it, there are two rings very tightly closing up the black hole, and two outer, concentric rings. The uppermost ring has the texts "XVI - LA MAISON|DIEV", "XVII - L'ESTOILLE" and "XVIIII - LE SOLEIL" on it, along with the alchemical symbols of sulphur, the element of fire, and the Sun, as well as the symbols of the following in pairs: the Sun - the zodiac sign of Leo, Jupiter - Sagittarius, Mars - Aries. The lower part of the rings is lit strongly. On the upper part of the painting, above the rings, the distortion of the black hole is visible on the background stars and interstellar medium as their images get "flattened" around the curved surface of the outermost ring.

I went on multiple hiatuses during those months, I was painting here and there then, too, but I kind of let those be. That Xander portrait is still among my favourites though, and it felt good to include it here. Maybe I'll work a little more on it before posting it, it's a bit more sketch-like now.

I’m a witch who paints the whispers of the forest, the shadows between worlds, and the quiet melancholy.

My OC Xander portrayed as the High Priestess Major Arcanum of the Tarot, inspired by both the Marseille and the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot. A pale man with long dark hair and tattoos, here he is sitting/crouching on the ground, as if he's slightly moving away from the viewer while looking at them, one hand on the ground, another at his face, almost pointing towards his right eye that is covered by a luminous white flower affixed to his face. His left golden eye is visible, and a drop of red liquid is falling from his lips, from the pomegranate he ate, that is in pieces on the ground around him.
His outfit is largely inspired by one of ARTMS member Kim Lip's outfits she wore during their Dall era. He is wearing black leather clothes: a hood with golden spikes at its edge, a top that exposes his collarbones and arms, a fingerless glove with a golden chain at his elbow on his left arm, pants that leave a part of his thighs visible stitched together with red laces, and knee-high laced platform boots with golden eyelets. He wears a red choker on his neck, and a golden chain from which a shining mirror is hanging. Some of his tattoos are visible (see the comments below the piece).
Behind his head is the Moon, and behind the Moon are dark veils that hang from two columns, a black and a white column, similarly to the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot's imagery of the pillars of Boaz and Jachin, where they symbolise dualities like severity and mercy. They are sparkling with stars and flowing motifs, some of which come to the foreground, like the star obscuring Xander's tatoo of the astrological symbol of Mars,  and a crescent that echoes the crescent Moon. Behind the veil and the Moon a part of the Cosmos is visible, a spacescape with orange-brown dust clouds surrounded by bluish illumination and many bright stars.

My OC Xander portrayed as the High Priestess Major Arcanum of the Tarot, inspired by both the Marseille and the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot. A pale man with long dark hair and tattoos, here he is sitting/crouching on the ground, as if he's slightly moving away from the viewer while looking at them, one hand on the ground, another at his face, almost pointing towards his right eye that is covered by a luminous white flower affixed to his face. His left golden eye is visible, and a drop of red liquid is falling from his lips, from the pomegranate he ate, that is in pieces on the ground around him. His outfit is largely inspired by one of ARTMS member Kim Lip's outfits she wore during their Dall era. He is wearing black leather clothes: a hood with golden spikes at its edge, a top that exposes his collarbones and arms, a fingerless glove with a golden chain at his elbow on his left arm, pants that leave a part of his thighs visible stitched together with red laces, and knee-high laced platform boots with golden eyelets. He wears a red choker on his neck, and a golden chain from which a shining mirror is hanging. Some of his tattoos are visible (see the comments below the piece). Behind his head is the Moon, and behind the Moon are dark veils that hang from two columns, a black and a white column, similarly to the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot's imagery of the pillars of Boaz and Jachin, where they symbolise dualities like severity and mercy. They are sparkling with stars and flowing motifs, some of which come to the foreground, like the star obscuring Xander's tatoo of the astrological symbol of Mars, and a crescent that echoes the crescent Moon. Behind the veil and the Moon a part of the Cosmos is visible, a spacescape with orange-brown dust clouds surrounded by bluish illumination and many bright stars.

A colourful painting of Corvus Corax in his simpler armour with raven skulls on his belts around his waist. He has his right hand on his heart, and in his left hand he holds a whip that seemingly melts into darkness along with the ends of his robes. Red glowing embers are surrounding him, painting his feathery cloak and the feathers of his large wings a red light. The planet of Kiavahr is behind his head as a red halo, and above it is Deliverance.

Elegy, or at least how I imagine it, from The Lands Remaining TTRPG. Set on an island filled with graveyards, mausoleums gloom and veiling nobles, this is the place where character wake up from their death.
