In a spooky night-time scene, a girl - approximately 14 with shoulder-length brown hair and wearing jeans and a denim jacket - crouches on a dirt driveway and looks behind her in consternation. Behind her is a large dark house with peaked gables and spiky points sticking out of the roof and a tall tower. The top floor of the tower is lit - the only illumination in the house - and a figure is silhouetted in the window. Behind the house are fir trees and a huge full moon. the entire scene is in spooky greens and blues.

An illustration of a hippopotamus ice skating in the Olympics. She's got a lovely lavender dress on with lots of sparkly sequins on it. She looks very graceful and happy.

A panicked apprentice witch (she's human, with pink hair, glasses, and light academia clothing) makes a mess of her cauldron while being calmy advised by an older, wiser witch (who is a bear.) Aside from the exploding cauldron, the browns of the scene make it warm and cozy.

A digital drawing of my OC, Bridget. She’s sitting on a stump, looking startled or surprised at something behind her. She holds her sword pointed to the ground, rests one arm on her leg, and is bathed in the glow of a fire. The trees behind her have orange, red, and brown coloration to signify the fall season. She wears a blue brigandine, steel pauldrons and vambraces.

A digital pinup drawing of my character Sheila the Swordswoman. She emerges from a dark corridor with walls of grey stone. She has light blonde hair pulled up into a ponytail. She is garbed in revealing armor, reminiscent of characters like Conan, Red Sonja, or Xena. She carries a bloodied sword on one hand and has her other gripping the corner of the stone wall. She enters into torchlight, looking ahead to what lies in the next room. She herself is bloodied, with a cut on her stomach and her left arm, implying previous battles fought.

A pinup cover of my character Jenny Jolt, rocking on stage. She raises her guitar up, with lightning coming from it. There's a small crowd below, blocked by barriers, watching the performance in awe. The room is dark, and lit by the blue electricity from the top right, and offstage pink lights from the top left side of the page

A digital drawing of my cast of characters for an upcoming comic project. They're a party of fantasy adventurers enjoying some down time at the tavern. There's a warm light coming from above. The characters lean against the counter and sit on the stools, engaging in conversation, carrying tankards.

A stylized interior scene, likely from a video game or comic, depicts a dimly lit, earthy-toned shop or stall.

At a counter, a woman with pink/purple hair and a determined expression is smoking a pipe. She is dressed in light-purple garments with darker accents and light-purple/gray colored wraps around her wrists.

Opposite her, a character with reptilian features, blue-green scales, and a dark navy or blue uniform is standing. They have large, spiky head appendages, and they are carrying a large, light brown backpack. The character appears to be mid-interaction with the vendor woman.

The background features wooden shelving, warm-toned walls, and some other vaguely decorative elements.

A large red chest with large, jagged teeth along the bottom edge is in the scene near the reptilian character.

a dwarf lady with her hammer, grinning menacingly^^

Full shot of a vibrant, fantasy-style illustration.

A female character, with vibrant blue hair and a purple-blue dress, is mounted on a mechanical, fire-breathing dragon-like creature. She is mid-action, likely casting a spell or combat maneuver, as fire erupts from the staff she holds in one hand, and she's positioned in the middle of a cityscape. The city looks colorful and whimsical, with pastel pink, light purple, and light beige buildings.

The dragon is a rich, orange-brown color and has large, stylized wings. A smaller, darker character is seen on top of another portion of the large dragon.

The background features more fantastical structures and details, contributing to the overall vibrant and dynamic atmosphere. The lighting suggests an open, outdoor setting. The overall style is cartoonish and stylized, with a focus on exaggerated features and colors.

Full shot of a digital artwork or fan art.

The scene is a dynamic confrontation. A figure, resembling Link from the Legend of Zelda series, is prominently featured in the foreground, positioned in a dynamic stance, notably his arm is outstretched, holding a bow and arrow. His attire is the classic green tunic and pants, a hooded cloak, and protective leather armor. His expression suggests focus and determination, and there is a sense of movement and action in the overall pose.

Behind Link, a large ornate, dark gray metal-looking horse in an elaborate, protective armor that is ridden by another figure. This figure's armor is red with darker accents, and the armor seems very detailed. The figure on horseback has a grim and powerful face.

The background suggests a large, ornate room, potentially a castle or a similar grand structure. The style includes textured elements such as muted blues, reds, and oranges, giving depth and a unique coloring scheme not found in standard video game art styles.

A glowing, light blue fairy-like creature, or possibly a light effect is visible to the right of Link, with a misty or ethereal quality, and adds a touch of fantasy to the scene suggestive of the game's world atmosphere.

The artwork has a strong focus on action with the figures in dynamic positions, showing a sense of conflict. The colors and details both complement and contrast with Link, and the enemy figure suggesting a moment of high drama and tension.

Burnout. Illustration of a winged creature of humanoid shape with a flaming head. They're crying as they crouch, using a hand to draw with ashes on the ground. Their wings are extended behind them surrounded by disembodied open eyes.

Cosmic Geometry. Colorful illustration of an astronaut floating in space, making first contact with an unknown entity in the form of a giant ball of convulsive energy.

Mute. Portrait of a face with no mouth. In its place grow plants, algae and corals. They are looking straight at the viewer, trying to communicate something.

Jellyheart. A green skinned mermaid with long dark hair floats at sea, surrounded by a big group of jellyfish of all colours. Her skin is translucent, her empty ribcage clearly visible through it. She is holding a small pink jellyfish against her chest that symbolizes her heart.

I was quite happy with this one and it's likeness, but it got zero engagement here 🙃
If I was to do it again I maybe would have cropped it or made it so Columbo doesn't end so abruptly lol
