The bird I made this image as a book cover for a client over a year ago. It's an older art. Unfortunately it is connected to a bad client situation. I wasn't sure if I even wanted to post the bird, but on the other hand, I have put a lot of hours into it. So here's the bird

Another in-progress art today. This is an artwork I'm painting for myself as a cover for my D&D project, Feylights of Gaol I copied wings from my concept art and I'm overpainting them slightly. This is bug elf is based on black swallowtail butterfly :3 #wipart #illustration #d&d
In contrast to the previous artwork, here is a rainbow faerie I'm painting for a private client It's very much a mid-render in progress thing #wipart
This is a sketch commission I did for a @jawmachineart.bsky.social This is Victor, a demon, with some pretty fun bug elements! I was delivered a pre-prepared character design/concept art, and my job was to just draw it in my own style #sketch #art #fantasy
This time, I'm doing big art for myself We are slowly but surely finishing Demo for the bugelf book (Feylights of Gaol) I feel like crying :''> I painted two versions of the cover, I need to pick one now #dnd #d&d #illustration #wipart #sketch
I posted some D&D homebrew, and an awesome person responded with a document giving me detailed critique and feedback. I decided to draw them something in return because that means so much that they wanted to help and feedback my silly writing They wanted a tarrasque, here is early wip sketch :3 #dnd
This is an illustration of a mindflayer dragon + dragonborn I painted for an anonymous client for their ongoing campaign, inspired by Baldur's Gate 3 #bg3 #dnd #illustration #art #dndart
New Banshee design. Because I just felt the old ones, based on Mantis insects, were not exactly what I had in mind Hope the idea is more clear now #sketch
This is a mantis fairy I sketched for a private client. This one was a bit of a challenge, but I hope in the end it works <3 I love it when people come to me with their own bug characters #sketch #art #sketchbook
There is no good way to post it (art too long) This is DM Screen I painted for Adventure Calls Entertainment (ACE) company. This illustration is ~110cm long and I spent months painting it. I got tasked with painting a group of bug adventurers #illustration #ttrpg #dnd
I'm in progress of rendering a double dragon piece for a client. Work going slower (I got a bit sick) but I'm slowly crawling back to my normal speed. Today I've done the mountains in the background and the jaws #wipart
This is an illustration n of an ancient deity conceptualised and painted for a private client. This was a partial character design work, as I received a pre-owned design. They are pretty different from each other, but I thought it's good to know #art #fantasy #horror #illustration #characterdesign
Here's the second Weeshee I drew. They are elves based on glowworms :3 This one is definitely creepier but it also shows the anatomy better. It's part of a series of my bug elves, which portray playable species for my D&D 5e setting. #dnd #sketch #art #characterdesign
Here's the new bug elf, finished! This is a Weeshee, the glowworm elf. This species are trickster spirits, whose sense of humour may be anything from pretty harmless to straight up malicious #conceptart #sketch #dnd #art #fantasy
Here's a halfbody art of a Siren/Water Nymph named Rhea I painted as a commission. This was not a character design, more like a light re-design of a pre-existing concept
I got some extra free-work time in between commissions so I started working on the next Bug Elf for the book. This is an elf based on a glowworm. I wanted to make them cute and whimsical, but I started getting ideas midway shape study and I ended up with a haunted skeleton :V #sketch
Hi hi! I remember a few of you really enjoyed this dragon, so here's the finished version! I was tasked with doing a creature design of a dragon with two heads but one head at the same time. This is what I came up with :3 #digitalart #dragon #art
Magister Profesor Eberhardt Orza One of my characters I especially love. Quick warmup before serious work #sketch
Just some quick warmup sketches of two hobgoblin NPC's for my upcoming campaign. Hobgoblins are my favourite classic D&D species <3 Anyway, these two are called Maorice and Vakh #sketch #dnd #dndart #hobgoblin
