Guardians make their own fate and I will continue to do so....

Quick throw together for Ophelia's ever shifting appearance. unfortunately the veil covers all my effort to give her skin a pearly look shifting from blues to yellow to pink. I also lost my pearl beads brush on csp when I moved to the tablet >:c I'll need to find that again because now she looks naked without her billion strings of pearls.

Oh wow, my first DnD character was a long time ago. But if memory serves me correctly, it was Tolmen Tealeaf, a halfling rogue! He turned over a new leaf (pun intended) throughout the campaign, learning to use his thieving skills for the better. Very typical first ever character. Unfortunately, I have 'retired' him as a character. Though many of mine get recycled into new stories, he has sort of been eclipsed by my newer cast.

Made for this year's Valentine Art Swap for @altaniadventures !!

I was participating in Wolchefant Week over on bsky. While im not happy with it, im tired of looking at it so its staying this way.

Its a vampire story. In fact, its my OCs canon story with all their origins and how they all meld together in one story. Its also like a melting pot of all my favourite vampire media. like VtM, Vampyr (that video game that came out in 2018), Castlevania, Dracula, IWTV, etc. So if you like those things, you may like this.

I've also been writing these two a fuck ton lately. Their novel now sits at 42k words and I feel like I've barely scratched the surface; I've also finally got a proper plot and not just story beats I want to hit. With a clear goal in mind now, everything is coming along much smoother.

ANYWAYS I'm back on that V Rising kick. Conquering Vardoran by night, playing vampire interior designer by day.

Ophelia got a new look post boss fight so I figured it was as good a time as any to keep at the no line art practice. No longer a tiefling, now the DM's home brewed race 'Lunarian'? Anyways, she can float now and is no longer semi dead and kept alive solely by the power of her god.

Finally did a fully 'painted' illustration? Maybe, still working out this process.

how are yall out here painting haaaands, my brain cannot compute the refs and translate them to the image. theyre too big or too small or too wide or not posed the way I want them. either way WIP for sword week thing

im like 🤏this close to letting go of my line art crutch, but today is not that day
