This century-old tradition dates back to the 1850s when a bishop's daughter first trained the birds to pull a hanging rope for lunch. IG: @maddy.lee.98 Bishop's Palace in Wells, Somerset, England

Voyn's first design. I kinda miss him, a little bit. In this iteration, he was a grumpy, trigger-happy medieval warlord-priest who is more than glad to get into trouble and just be a menace. #digitalart #fantasy #originalcharacter #warrior #warlord
Elric's losing his patience veeeery gradually- #digitalart #swordandsorcery #fantasy #conanthebarbarian #conanthecimmerian #jirelofjoiry #elricofmelnibone #crossover
The only reason this is taking me almost a whole week to draw is because I have work lol. Being an adult is so boring sometimes xD
Just realized I've not uploaded this Jirel piece I made in June #digitalart #blackandwhite #ink #lineart #swordandsorcery #newedgeswordandsorcery #jirelofjoiry
Good day to feel existential dread and inferiority complex. Not sure how those two correlate but it's a vicious combo
What's happening here? Wrong answers only (though it's highly probably all are correct)
Celebratory meal after a successful adventure... or not
Ranking the Moore Jirel stories from my fav to least fav cuz I'm bored Black God's kiss The dark land Hellsgarde Black God's shadow Jirel meets magic Quest of the starstone
My fav non-canon crossover, hehe #digitalart #swordandsorcery #fantasy #crossover #conanthebarbarian #conanthecimmerian #jirelofjoiry #elricofmelnibone

Unused Rite of Spring Elric piece that I decided to finish anyway. #digitalart #swordandsorcery #elricofmelnibone #stormbringer #michaelmoorcock
Voyn in the Vily Circle The female silhouette is absolutely intentional #digitalart #fantasy #originalcharacter #oc #fantasy #blackandwhite
Voyn, my guy. He's basically if you mixed Elric with Giselle (the ballet) #digitalart #ink #lineart #originalcharacter #oc #fantasy
I forgot how funny these comments are. But this is why you gotta know your audience, I guess. Funnily enough, I toned down the androgyny in my Elric design by a considerable margin. Jirel shade will not be tolerated, though.
In sword and sorcery, you don't hit rock bottom when you want to fuck a blonde (they're incredibly rare, in fact). You hit rock bottom when you want to fuck wizards.
DND classes be like Conan: (lack of direction in life) barbarian Jirel:(flawed authority figure) paladin Elric: (pillow biting princess) warlock
In case you wonder, I love drawing noses, hehe And collarbones, I wouldn't know why.
Jirel of Joiry is therapeutic to femininity, if that makes sense. She is fierce, she's intense, loud and proud. And she's compassionate, vulnerable, protective and unashamed of her desires. She carries a sword, yet has no issues donning a dress. It just heals something within me as a woman.
Oh, the troubles of finding a perfect gift. Oldish art. Circa 2023 #digitalart #originalcharacter #oc #fantasy
'Gorgeous prose moves this book at a fantastic pace. I was riveted from the very first page. The action is brisk, the character is deep, the world feels alive, and the themes will be churning in my brain for a long time. Every Goatskin tale I read is better than the last.' -- reader review
