The phoenix’s library entrance is only available through water. Isn’t that convenient?

Today I painted a concept art of a Karkana (centipede centaurs for my D&D setting) based on a Mint Legged Centipede/Scolopendra. I'm also adding a second Karkana I painted. Their name is Saldek. I don't have the name for the first Karkana :< Maybe you have ideas?

The flowers in the background were photobashed from this free royalty photo on Pexels. They will be overpainted in the final image, but I wanted to have a good base reff for wisteria flowers: www.pexels.com/photo/vibran...

I asked my players how she should look like, and "buff" was the most common answer 😆 So I did exactly that. They want muscles? They'll get muscles

I always imagine mushroom tissue as very soft so it's still huggable/10 in my book :3

I just went with "random bones go" because the creature doesn't have to make an anatomical sense. It's just a rule of cool, anything goes ♥️

a black and white painting of an insectoid angel. it has long arms and a winglike cloak of black, starry feathers. its entire body is comprised of interlocking, smooth chitin, and it has an earwig-esque tail sprouting from the back of its head that holds numerous glowing contellations. its set against a purple gradient background, and a logo in the top left corner reads "Delta Hexagon 2026" a close up of the insectoid angel's head, showing the constellations and its facial features in better detail. its eyeless face sports a beetle-like horn, and its framed by 8 delicate insect wings a close up of the insectoid angel's wings, showing the delicate veining in finer detail

commission for @nweress.bsky.social ! and i had so much FUN WITH THIS GUY. an insectoid angel based around constellations and the sky

Today I bring you an artwork I painted for a client. This creature's name is Alithea and they are a fungi/mushroom monster made from dragonborn body parts, random bones and all the good stuff. I like it very much, this is my comfort creature, and I want to hug it <3

I'm open all the time, technically, the only issue is that I have a waiting list system and it takes months from signing up to me getting to the request ;_;

Last concept art of the mosquito. Each one has a "tail", an external stomach, that fills up after they feast. They stay happy for as long as the stomach is full, and then then need to hunt for another victim. They are a odd version of vampires, basically. And yes. They do sparkle.

I started rendering the buddy from the bottom up, because his "dress" is such a big part of the design. And I am VERY aware that if I started from mushrooms I would overfocus on that and ignore dress
So I'll treat myself with the fungi tomorrow :3

Next sketch for next client! It's another mushroom creature and I'm SO EXCITED. Somehow I get to do a lot of fungi recently and that's a great joy for me!
Anyway, it's a cool, creepy, undead monster, dark fantasy themed!
