A digital portrait of a woman holding a book. She's dressed in a medieval fantasy outfit in shades of blue and purple. Her circlet and the rest of her jewelry are silver with amber gemstones, and her red hair is styled in two braids intertwined with purple ribbons.

I'm not dead, here's a new picture from me. It's a portrait of @the-art-of-hobbes.bsky.social 's character.

I don't know, I really like how 1-3 look so I'd like more pictures of them but the designs are already fine. I guess you could always give them alternative outfits, though.

This is the second time I've seen a "there's only 1-5 eldar fans in existence" joke in a comment section and it's weird it happened twice.

New picture of characters I've had since 2017. Not enough space for the full description here. Actually, I have a couple of posts with them here. But *this* outfit is atypical of him.

That's because they treat the others like clipart/stock photos for their slideshow of semirealistic paintings, and your drawings are very recognizable and whimsical. You're kinda famous... as far as I know.

New picture of Stabri, by the way. Wanted to try out opalescent/iridescent effects on the pupils and skin.

He was inspecting the animal on the ground but something made him look up.

Statue in the back has a mechanism that displays a holographic map of the galaxy.

Thank you so much for this depiction of the boy ^^ Having someone make your character feels great!

So because i am impatient, and none of the target recepients follow me, here are my very first sticker designs with my OC Endimion! We are both very excited to meet cosplayers this year!

I drew this on ibis paint x, btw, on smartphone. Most successful attempt to date. Subject to potential change.

I know you tagged me a long time ago but I didn't think I have enough purple pieces (that I still like). But on second thought a lot of pics I made of these characters have plenty of purple-adjacent hues.

Come on guys, we're not even halfway there. Gotta pick up the pace if we want to reach the goal by the end of July! Also, if successful, this can set a precedent for software in general.

Serious question: is the daemon ichor harvested from actual daemons, and if so, what are its properties?

Your designs are better than the IP rebrand ones anyway

Reposting on here, some Dark Eldar (you'll never catch me calling them their IP rebrand) characters I haven't drawn in a little while

a meme

top panel of the image is isildur from lord of the rings, holding the one ring which is labelled as "a vague new WIP idea that's about to take over everything I'm currently working on"

next panel is Elrond shouting at Isildur "Cast it into your 'ideas' folder, delay it!"

next panel is Isildur who is labelled as "writer/artist" replying "No."

What happened to the whole "a specially trained psyker weaving it practically out of nothing by playing a weird musical instrument" bit?

A character (male elf in dark segmented armor holding a knife and a pistol) in front of the sinks in a delapidated public restroom, facing in the direction of the stalls. The viewer's point of view is from inside the stall (the door is open). There's red light coming from the direction of the floor just behind the character, illuminating a humanoid entity with a dessicated appearance floating right behind his back with arms outstretched as if to grab his shoulders. The walls appear to be oozing streaks of dark reddish liquid and the mirror is cracked. The elf is about to turn around to face whatever is behind him.

I'm finally posting something brand new (finished this yesterday).

Yeah she looks so different from the newest picture (and shorter)... but I can't keep from staring at the sentient fur's expression :D

TBH Rick Owens (in interviews) looks like he might himself be a haemonculus (the intentionally uncomfortable furniture in his home and everything) so it makes sense.

Digital painting of a young woman with white braided hair and purple eyes. On her head is a gold bejeweled tiara and earrings in an art nouveau-inspired style. She's wearing a sheer white dress with gold details, with an iridescent sheer shawl patterned like insect wings with gold veins.

From February 2021. Someone had reposted this one on twitter recently so I figured why not post it here now. For context, she's the same entity as in my profile pic but this is her preferred human form (took her a while to get the hang of it).
