Painted for: Pathfinder Hell's Destiny Adventure Path AD: Sonja Morris I did these paintings back in 2025. I always enjoy working on characters of all kinds, even in smaller illustrations or simple portraits. I always imagine the worlds they live in and the adventures they might experience.

Every time I haven't used my sketchbook in a while...

A three-panel comic titled 'Muscle Memory'. An artist is ready to draw in their sketchbook "Time to draw on some real paper!" In the next panel the artist is trying to draw "Oh, that's a bit small. I can't see..." The final large panel is a close-up where they use their fingers to try and zoom in on the paper as they would on a digital device, saying all confused, "Why won't it zoom in??"

#PortfolioDay 🥀

🌿viktor aleksander🌿🌸patreon launch!🌸@nooskadraws.bsky.social · 4mo ago

good morning #portfolioday! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 i'm viktor, a trans gay illustrator, looking for work in books, fantasy book boxes, ttrpgs, and comics. historical fiction, fashion, & fantasy is my cup of tea ✨🌿🌸🍵 ✉️ alex_dingley@hotmail.co.uk 🖼️ www.nooska-art.com 🛒 nooskaart.etsy.com ☕ ko-fi.com/nooska [ #art ]

A digital illustration of a scene from AV Wilkes' 'All the White Spaces'. Jonathan, a trans man and the protagonist, stands in the centre, facing the viewer. He stares ahead in horror, his right hand clutching his throat. From his left eye, strands of bleeding red aurora stretch outwards. These auroras show visions of Jonathan's brothers on the Western Front of the First World War:
- A moustached officer smokes a cigarette in a trench, looking away.
- A soldier is twisted in the remains of barbed wire.
- Three soldiers wear gas masks, emerging from clouds of mustard gas.
- No Man's Land exploded to all hell. A tank is submerged in a shell hole in the distance.
- A skull pressed into the earth.
- A soldier holds a rifle and makes his way across the strait of No Man's Land.

Two portrait aligned digital illustrations of book covers.
Left: An illustration of Afaeran and King Galdor from the webcomic Wundor. They stand in the centre, facing each other. They are bordered by Ancient Greek inspired white columns and an arch above them. The columns are covered with grapevines, vine leaves, and hanging purple grapes. Afaerun is an oche skinned elf with flowing light pink-white hair, and wears a curved silver and ruby tiara, he smiles as he looks at King Galdor. King Galdor is a purple skinned monarch with a single white horn growing from his head. He has flowing dark purple hair, and wears a red leaf laurel. He holds Afaerun's cheek in a romantic embrace.
Right: The cover for the book The Need for Dandelions by Alex Larkspur.
Two men stand back to back surrounded by depictions of dandelions. The man angled to the front is Galen. He has tan skin, red hair, and hazel eyes. A large portion of his face is covered by a burn scar. He wears a yellow tunic and brown pants, along with a pink flower pendant. He lifts up one hand, and looks concerned. The other man, facing towards the back but looks over his shoulder, is Sasha. He has light brown hair, dark brown eyes, and stubble. He is wearing leather armor and green shirt and pants. He is holding a sword.

2 different portrait illustrations side by side.
Left: Alder is a green skinned eladrin elf paladin. He stands nude in a forest. He wears a gold crown of laurels on his head. He looks down at the ground. He holds a sword in one hand, and a sprig of alder branch in the other, he has a shield attached to one arm. He is surrounded by green trees and yellow flowers.
Right: A digital illustration inspired by the pairing Hansry (Hans Capon and Henry of Skalitz from the game series Kingdom Come Deliverance). The illustration is influenced by a scene in the 2005 film Pride and Prejudice. It is separated into 3 panels.
Panel 1: Hans Capon looks behind him in quiet shock at his bodyguard Henry.
Panel 2: Henry has touched Hans' ungloved hand with his gauntleted one in a gentle hold. The panel is surrounded by blooming flowers: herbs and plants that Henry can forage on his journey. Marigold, St John's Wort, Valerian, Sage, Chamomile, and Dandelion.
Panel 3: Henry meets Hans' eyes with an unreadable expression. He quietly yearns beneath it.

A digital illustration of a purple, green, and grey-blue themed bookshelf. The book shelf is filled with old tomes, Victorian inspired knick-knacks such as keys, teacups, candles, and a flask of a potion. On one of the shelves there is a framed picture of an anatomical human heart, along with a skull resting on a stack of books. On another shelf, there is a bust of Diana the Greek goddess.

Digital painting of a giant man with royal blue skin, and a literal fish for a head, with a human face. The creature's head is adorned in ornate white patterns, the material similar to stone or granite, and its expression is solemn, with its eyes closed.

There are bands of varying sizes around its right bicep, left forearm, both thighs and both ankles, the material of which is similar to the granite sculptures on its head. It is wielding a staff, with a sharp fish hook shaped blade, possibly made with marble.

fairy with giant blue morpho butterfly wings and a faint halo, holding a lantern that attract butterflies.

Digital painting of an elegant merman. There is a glow of royal blue coming out of a cavity in middle of his upper torso in the middle that extends to his abdomen, and out of two columns of holes in his bottom portion. His tail seems to be a hollow flesh and the blue magic extends out to form his fish tail. There is a royal blue sword on top of the character; the sword is slim and sharp, and the blade is sculpted to have an impaled fish on its end.

Digital painting of a merfolk-monster mutant called "Siren of the Chasm". The merman is mostly humanoid; with human legs and barely any aquatic features, but on the nape of his neck is a fleshy appendage, that tethers him to the spine of a giant, mutated anglerfish, as if he's the lure and bait instead of a faintly glowing appendage. It is ivory white and spiky rocks spread across its jaw, belly and back-side, as if they're barnacles attaching to it. The fish is practically an extended jaw.

The merfolk is floating above the large and open jaws of the anglerfish.

Hello #PortfolioDay! It feels a little strange to upload these works, since I have a lot of new paintings under NDA which I wish I could show. Thanks to everyone! I'm not good with social media but really appreciate the love my art gets from you every time I stumble in with a new painting ❤️

An illustration of a goliath hunter on his mount in snowy mountain terrain, facing off against a crag cat. The Goliath is a young man, dressed in brown and white furs, accented with red and blue woven panels. He wields a red horsebow. His mount is a mixture of a reindeer and a markhor goat. His tack and gear matches the colors and motifs of his rider. He is mid leap. In the foreground, a white sabertoothed cat pursues the pair. In the background are snowy peaks and Giant ruins.

A cleric astride a flying broom raises a glowing sword above a battle field. Golden, rays of bright light stream out from the sword. Her party members and herself are wrapped in golden glowing flowers and vines. They stare up at her in awe.

The party members, counter clockwise from the top left are: A dwarven artificer wearing jeweltones and riding a magic carpet, the cleric wearing a gold breastplate and blue robes; a giant fighter in full adamantine plate and a dragon helm; a half-drow Psi-fighter in blues and purples, floating mid-air and holding her crossbow; and a tiefling ranger, arms stretched out in joy and relief.

Behind the party members is a truly gargantuan giant, you can see him only up to his knees. He wears silver greaves and you can catch a glimpse of his great axe.

Ruins of a city are in the distant background.

Two front covers.

Reigning Souls: By Her Will by Elyse Sylvan ( @elysesylvan.bsky.social )and Martina Pine (@pinemartina.bsky.social ). A view through a window from a palatial fantasy interior, inspired by Gothic and Moorish architecture. Through the window is a view of a fountain in a rose garden. Beyond the garden walls are rolling hills, a magical cityscape, and a twilight sky over mountains. The color scheme is shades of blue, purple, and pink.

Reigning Souls: By Her Heart by Elyse Sylvan ( @elysesylvan.bsky.social )and Martina Pine (@pinemartina.bsky.social ). A view through a window from a cozy but grand 17th century manor with Tudor style wood paneling. Through the arched window is a view of a snowy scene. A medieval French country manor sits in the distance, windows glowing warmly in the twilight. The transom is filled with leaded glass, and at the center is a wooden relief sculpture of a dove. The color scheme is shades of maroon, pink, purple, and blue.

TEXT: Pistolheart, A Western Campaign supplement for Daggerheart by Carlos Cisco

A train with a big green crystal in the front is coming toward the viewer while two gunslingers, one a fungril and the other a clank, leap from their mounts (a roadrunner and a robot horse) onto the train. Bandits on top of the train fire at them with guns.

“Life cannot exclude death, just as good cannot exclude evil.” This is Callibas, an elf who got banished. He vanished a long time ago, and there are fairy tales and stories about him which make him sound like he might be something monstrous.

This illustration by Wiktor Kozyra shows two adventurers traveling between fantasy and sci-fi worlds. As the composition moves from left to right, it fades from rough grayscale sketches to to finished linework.

I painted this one back in 2023 when I had just started oil painting. I remember how much I struggled with it. I didn’t really have experience with mediums, and one of them made a big mess all over the canvas. You can see it when looking closer at the texture in some areas.
