I’m so happy with how this turned out!!! 🤩 Preview of the cover for the bestiary I am working on “Questing Beasts”, full of nerdly goodies! ❤️ : #art #preview #cover #fantasy #artistsoninstagram #swamp #marsh #ahuizotl #giant #trees #light #ahbuamaqu #pathfinder #dungeonsanddragons #rpg #intotherunaverse #adventure #questingbeasts #amadan #sohappy #procreate #digitalart #fromsketchtofinish https://www.instagram.com/p/CDoOGz7jAf6/?igshid=11e3u9i5qnmxm

The Iku-Turso, or ‘the eternal Turso’ is a malicious sea beast from Finnish folklore. Their modern word for octopus is derived from this creature’s name, BUT iku-turso is an old word for ‘walrus’ in Finnish. I’m wondering was enormous prehistoric walrusesque monstrosity attacked ancient Finns to create this legend. : #mythology #ikuturso #finnish #monster #sea #watermonster #concept #design #art #artistsoninstagram #sketch #sketchbook #blackandwhite #ink #pen #walrus #folklore https://www.instagram.com/p/CDlj_o8jTZn/?igshid=dkchmkx30txc

The Bukavac! A Slavic monster that cried into the night with a frightening “BUKA!” I see a lot of interpretations that look like a frog, but I decided to go with more of a salamander. : #stepbystep #art #ink #blackandwhite #sketch #design #monster #slavic #mythology #bukavac #salamander #intotherunaverse #bestiary #dungeonsanddragons #pathfinder #rpg #amphibious https://www.instagram.com/p/CDj_8Q5DlYH/?igshid=am2kwt01h525

@roarinbooza is unbelievable - she ordered me this for my birthday, but it took a while to get here because she got it CUSTOM ENGRAVED! She spoils me, how did I get so lucky. SO MUCH GOODNESS TO COME FROM THIS PUPPY!!! : #ipadpro #birthday #bestwife #artwork #nextsteps #art #custom #engraved #spoiledhusband #love #whaaaat #soexcited https://www.instagram.com/p/CDjxjB3D23o/?igshid=z3r5gq7ah1dd

I should probably start keeping a camera to stream this as I do it...but for next time. Anyway, here’s some process shots of the current monster making session. : #art #concept #design #monster #creature #bestiary #bandersnatch #intotherunaverse #stepbystep #drawing #ink #dungeonsanddragons #rpg #pathfinder #comingsoon #campaign #sketchbook #sketch #fantasy #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CDjXZbLD_lM/?igshid=8wd0r314ozvp

Wtf did I just draw. This started with me drawing the curve on the left side of the body and then just kept sketching... : Now I gotta make something out of this.. : #wtf #sketch #pen #ink #fromnothing #art #drawing #artistsoninstagram #random #blue #legs #creepy #mask #horror #monster #intotherunaverse #conceptart #bestiary #dungeonsanddragons https://www.instagram.com/p/CDhvaIFj8vb/?igshid=1ey47qkae2cy7

Cover concept art for the Runa bestiary ‘Questing Beasts’ - Campaign coming soon! I was always enamored with the gritty covers of the Pathfinder bestiaries, and how they would elicit the feelings of adventure; hoping to get a somewhat similar feel for mine. : #sketch #pen #ink #cover #concept #bestiary #adventure #pathfinder #dungeonsanddragons #intotherunaverse #runa #campaign #setting #comingsoon #staytuned #fantasy #rpg #ttrpg #art #artistsoninstagram #rough #swampgiant #ahuizotl #monsters #heretherebemonsters #swamp https://www.instagram.com/p/CDgmNJKjqZp/?igshid=5ixtcnltc6fq

Some monster sketches I was doing yesterday. The alkanost (like a friendly harpy), and a hanniver (an aquatic gremlin). Both to be appearing in the Runa bestiary - campaign coming soon! : #monster #creature #art #pen #sketch #ink #blackandwhite #pensketch #alkanost #hanniver #gremlin #harpy #mythology #runa #intotherunaverse #bestiary #comingsoon #dungeonsanddragons #5e #art #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CDd0zQYDnq4/?igshid=ui9567rkq72h

The dapper dhampir is all did-up now. Coming SOON in the 5e campaign setting ‘Into the Runaverse’! Very happy with how this turned out. As it would happen, finding a convincing skin tone for a half-undead was a little more challenging than originally anticipated. : #dhampir #art #artistsoninstagram #characterdesign #color #dungeonsanddragons #rpg #ttrpg #character #dapper #vampire #undead #cloak #redeyes #runa #intotherunaverse #fantasy #comingsoon #timelapse #timelapseart #campaignsetting #adventure https://www.instagram.com/p/CDL0hx_jae5/?igshid=1xcuzvioamka2
