Jori Does Art

I’m not sure what else to put here but it felt weird leaving it at two sentences.

A commission from one of the players in my Curse of Strahd party of her sorcerer, formerly divine, recently retooled to clockwork soul.  She’s a very fun character to play along side of, and I was thrilled to get to spend this much time and effort into drawing her :>

Sometimes the dice fall in very narratively exciting ways.  Signe has now gotten actual divine intervention twice in a row.  Both times our DM asked me to roll a d100 just to see what happens, and both times I have gotten a 99.  

Sometimes having all the attitude in the world isn’t enough and you need to turn into an angry bear to get your point across.  And sometimes that means channeling Angry Kirby energy for a while.  

First art for this year, featuring my druid in Full Audacity mode. She was told that she’d get the information she was after if she helped clear out a mine. She was not told that there was a dragon in the mine. 

Art dump of some of the work I’ve done over the last year or so.  All done for EN World’s various publications. 

Have I mentioned that I’m involved in probably too many D&D campaigns? Signe is my Circle of the Moon druid, self-proclaimed witch, currently on a quest to stop what she’s pretty sure might be an apocalypse that she’s been getting premonitions about.  She also has a level of barbarian, as a treat. I joined the campaign a few sessions in, and in her introduction to the party, she absolutely neglected to mention the “i can turn into a very angry bear” portion of her skillset, and tanked approximately 200 damage at level 3 thanks to having multple health bars.

Oops been too long since I posted art My Curse of Strahd group did a one-shot for Halloween (that ended up lasting 11 hours but that’s neither here nor there) I finally got a chance to play a gnoll bardbarian who is an aspiring comedian.  Everyone had to deal with my awful jokes the entire session, as well as the occasional raging when the jokes didn’t land.  

The least roguish rogue.   Zephryne is my incredibly dashing and charming Eladrin swashbuckler with more style than common sense.  That 6 in Wisdom has been incredibly fun to play with.   Also, she has a gun. And acquired a broken sniper rifle last session, so I can’t wait to get that fixed and sneak attack from 200 feet away.

*dusts off the art account* Apparently getting heavily back into D&D was the creative kick I’ve been missing, since of course a new campaign requires character art. Valya is a Reborn Champion Fighter in our Curse of Strahd campaign, is just a tiny bit dead and has 0 idea who she was before she was resurrected.  She’s designated herself the protector of the group and is usually on the front lines. Also she likes to embroider to pass the night while the rest of the party is sleeping.   At the end of our previous session she was attacked by a creature that stole her eye, and since she was already missing one she’s dealing with suddenly being completely blind and trying to still fit in that protector role.   I’ve been having a lot of fun playing her.  I’ve never had to update my character art before leveling up before, though. 

I’ve been doing a lot of animal illustrations/studies lately.  I’ve been having a ton of fun with them :>

a bit of a quiet day to wrap things up, got to work on a sketch that might become something in the near future :3c It felt great getting back into things, thank you to new followers and everyone who stopped by to check out my work!
