A digital illustration of Rí'an Mal'los, my Living One (custom protagonist) for Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, accompanied by Dog, an NPC companion from the same game. Rí'an is an elven woman dressed in 1890s outdoorwear, with the pink and purple outfit colors being based on her in-game Fancy Dress sprite. Her veiled tophat is based on Victorian riding attire while her overall outfit references an FIDM display of an 1890s Mountaineering outfit.

I wanted to draw Rí'an in an outfit more closely based on her in-game equipment, mixed with Victorian sportswear because she's gotta be fit for adventure! 💪

A digitally-colored pencil sketch of Magnus Shale Fist, an NPC companion from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. He is a young adult dwarf with dark shoulder-length hair and a modest beard, wearing leather armor.
Magnus is saying, with a flustered face, "A-And who might YOU be to ask a dwarf h-his name?! B-BAKA!" (a parody on tsundere tropes)

It's poking at one of the first lines Magnus says to the player character when they first meet him: "And who might YOU be to ask a dwarf his name? Bloody ignorant outlander, I'd say. As if a dwarf would give his name."

A rough digital cooldown sketch of Lavinia von Valancius, vtmbbot's custom protagonist for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. She is a voidborn psyker using her powers toward the camera. The art is in grayscale, with selective coloring uses to emphasize her purple eyes (from psyker power use), her purple psychic abilities, and the red purity seals on her outfit.

Rough pencil full-body and headshot sketches of Loghaire Thunder Stone from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. He is an elderly armored dwarf with long thick braided hair and beard, which is tucked into his belt. His hand is rested on the pommel of his family axe, "Harrow."

Every time I draw Loghaire, his beard gets a little bit longer. I think I've settled on "long enough to braid and loosely tuck into his belt" for now~

A digital illustration of Nels Llendo, an NPC from The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. He is a redheaded Dunmer man wearing bonemold armor, standing around the area of Pelagiad where he's found in-game. One of Nels' hands rests on a dagger at his hip while his other hand holds a Coda Flower up to his winking, smiling face.

A digital illustration featuring the Nerevarine and Azura from The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. On the right is Kirch, callistron's custom Nerevarine, who is a blond Altmer/High Elf man with golden skin, orange eyes, and wears blue clothes with chitin armor. On the left is callistron's Altmeri design for the Daedric Prince Azura, shown as a woman with pale golden skin and long night-purple hair with stars shining in the strands. Azura wears a dark blue gown with little jewels and golden accessories, and atop her head is a crown of roses glowing in the color of sunset. Kirch looks up at Azura in either awe or fear as the Daedric Prince holds Kirch's right arm up, and in Azura's other hand, shining brightly is the Moon-and-Star ring.

It is March 2, 2025. My plan was to leave the world on March 2, 2024.

What a difference in a year. I still have bad days. But reasons to stay are easier to find each day.

Thankful for family, for friends, for library kids who ARE going to save the world. Once a library kid, always a library kid 💚

Some digital bust sketches of three characters. In the top-left is An'zen, who is an elf man with pale skin, black hair, downturned pointed ears, and dark amber-brown eyes, and is of the fantasy setting's equivalent of east Asian heritage. The elf woman in the top-right is named Tui'las, and she has long red hair in a braided updo, rounder facial features, upturned pointed ears, blue eyes, and is of the fantasy setting's equivalent of western European heritage.
At the bottom of the image is the front + 3/4 face view of An'zen and Tui'las' daughter, Rí'an, who has a blend of their facial features, sporting an angular face, long black hair in a chignon, upturned pointed ears, and blue eyes.

Some sketch ideas of Rí'an's parents (+ an old sketch of Rí'an's face for comparison). They're all city elves~

It's fun to "reverse engineer" an OC's face to figure out how the parents look like (pardon the random/historically inaccurate hair/clothes, I was largely focusing on their faces)~
