Hi! Today I bring you a re-paint and a collection of artworks I did featuring one of the NPCs from my D&D book, Feylights of Gaol. This fella here is an ogre (meaning a giant). He's an antagonist (tho, obviousely, he may be portrayed as an ally), and I like him very much :3 #art #fantasy #dnd

The Citadel in Dis, an illustration for the Feylights of Gaol book . I'm not like, the best enviro artist in the world (in truth, I suck a bit), but for my book, I have to learn. And so I painted one of the book's location as illustration for the project #art

It's still unfinished but I'm slowly getting close to making second cover for Feylights of Gaol (my book). It takes over 5 days, which is very slow for me, but I want to make sure it looks crisp in print I hope you will like it when it's done <3 #wipart #art #illustration

Comm posting time! Here are some portraits I painted for different groups and clients over the period of late summer/early autumn. Sketch portraits are the simplest comms I offer. They are very rough around the edges, but some people enjoy that effect <3 #sketch #dnd

This is another concept art showing Weeshee, aka glowworm bug elf. This one is named Edgar. Edgar is not feeling so good. He is, hmm, departing, bleeding quite a lot of Feylight. All of the bugelves need this substance to survive. This is what their souls are made from #sketch #dnd #conceptart #art

I had some troubles designing the Banshee this year, so I decided to go back to the drawing board and give them one more shot. So here is the new banshee design sketch They are the only ones I lack until I have 10 bugelves completed #sketch #wipart

Here's a quick sketch I made some time ago of a bee queen for my bugelf series. I made some wonky hexagonal patterns too. At first I wanted to do honey hexes by hand but no. That was a very bad idea, why did I even. She is based on a carpenter bee btw #sketch #wipart

Hi! I wanted to share some more bugelves with you. This is Beatrice, a Sluagh drone, based on a bee. Bea here was painted in 2025 but I had to re-paint her a bit. Sluagh in general are based on order Hymenoptera. In-game they come in three types: drone, warrior and queen #art #dnd #sketch #fantasy

Here's a sketch I made to portray the Powrie, Squirrel Gnomes from the Feylights of Gaol D&D book. In the setting elves are bugs, gnomes are small forest animals, and dwarves are simply horrifying. I really wanted to do Redcaps, and picked the squirrels to represent them #sketch #characterart #dnd

It's not even an artwork per se, I'm just thinking out loud. Current Banshees (B) have a LOT of limbs and I'm not totally sold on that idea. I'm leaning to (C) but I need some second hand opinions. Thoughts?

Cheers! Today I finished painting all the artworks for the demo my book, Feylights of Gaol, which is a D&D setting/expansion. I've been crunching days on after work. Today and tomorrow we are finishing the layout. Next task: translate the demo to English, so everyone can read it! #sketch #art #dnd

Here is an illustration of a Botfly Bug Elf (this species is called a Feirak) for my book, Feylights of Gaol. It's a D&D fanmade project I've been working on for some time Feiraks are natural necromancers and they are my favourite species of elf. I base them on the order Diptera #sketch #art #dnd

Here's an early sketch for the botfly Feirak (fly elf) for my D&D project. I don't remember if I shared this concept art before. Originally, it was made as a part of a bug elf giveaway, but the person who won never responded to the sketches and whether they like them or not :'< #sketch #wipart
