Cleaning up and organizing some work files.... don't think I ever shared these test renders of the Kryptis Skyscale from GW2 Secrets of the Obscure. Bits and pieces of him ended up getting reused throughout that expansion like demon lego bricks. He kinda makes me think of raw chicken. #art #gw2

I just realized the previous version had some pretty serious color and image quality issues, so I'm reposting it. This piece features my parrot and my dragon OC.

a little tiny microscopic dragon, rotifers passing by. I've spent a lot of time peering down a microscope in the last few years, enjoyed taking inspiration from the real tiny organisms to make one of my own.

Watercolour and pencil illustration of a microscopic dragon sitting on a plant root. It's body is transparent and it has two rounded wings covered in beating cilia hairs. It has a long neck and blunt snout with long whiskers. Inside its neck, large jaws are visible and it has tiny black eyes.

The dragon has large claws on its feet, like a water bear, and a long segmented tail hangs down and splitting into a fork at the end. From the root, golden diatoms are growing, and sun animalcules creep along it as a group of rotifers swims past.

I keep drawing people with either missing hearts, hearts being devoured or eaten, or things pouring out from their hearts. i'm sure that's nothing I need to worry about or think too deeply about, lol

A pencil drawing  of a sad woman standing among lotus leaves. Three great blue herons surround her, pulling out pieces of her heart to feast upon (this is stylized and not gory or scary).

Little hungry guy I found living in the campground bathroom last weekend. I have no idea how he got in there but he had three prosperous stashes of seeds stockpiled in each corner and seemed to be living his best life.
