Back from a bit of a hiatus with some GW2 fanart! Halloween is my favorite in-game event so had to draw some Mad King art 🎃

#GW2 #GuildWars2 #GuildWars2FanArt #MadKing #Halloween

Half-Body illustration of a skeleton with a pumpkin head and a metal crown, engulfed in flames. Simply rendered bats are flying around the skeleton and a simple off-white circle to represent the moon is set behind the skeleton and bats as well.

I will be temporarily removing my limit on these, if any of you are interested in a lil chibi guy.

The proceeds will go to helping Sparrouu out in this tough time.

Hi #PortfolioDay! 🥰
I'm Dijana, a concept artist and illustrator, with traditional and gamedev experience. I love designing and painting characters, illustrations and portraits. I'd love to work on more covers and TTRPG illustrations ✨

📧: [email protected]

Demon Hunter - illustration
The image is a book cover for an upcoming fantasy novella by Daina Rustin. It depicts two main characters facing off a monster in a forest.
The main characters - Gray and Adrien - are turned away from us, and facing the monster hidden in the bushes. Gray is a slightly darker skinned mage, with long straight black hair, wearing a light green tunic and brown pants. She's placed in the foreground to the right.
She wears a wide belt around her waist, and has one shoulder bag and one smaller bag visible hanging around her waist. She is preparing a fireball in her left hand.
Adrien is a knight, and he's placed towards the left of the image. He's pointing his sword at the monster. He's wearing the Ravensguard blue tunic over a chainmail shirt, and brown pants.
The monster is in the middle background, it's tall, standing on back legs, black with reddish highlights, red eyes, big beak, and two very long claws in front.

Four of Wands - Radiant Fates - Stained Glass Tarot project
The illustration depicts the Four of Wands tarot card. The card carries the meanings of family, celebration, home, belonging, etc. The themes of the card are depicted by 4 women sitting on a swing bench together, each holding their own wand pointing upwards. The swing has 4 branches going upwards, arching and connecting in the center, creating a frame around the women and a rosette-style window depicting a castle. The background is a glassy texture with a soft gradient incorporating blues, purples, yellows, oranges and pinks, with a yellow graphical element extending from the castle frame, and stars. The foreground is covered in more flowers in pinks and blues.
The image is stylized, with heavy black linework, referencing a stained glass look in theme with the project.

Aurelia - character illustration
The image shows a stylized character illustration of the main character of Sky Across - Aurelia - on a white background. The character is a female, standing while leaning on a tall regal staff, while dressed in a "ceremonial" outfit for her setting. She’s wearing a stiff pale cream dress with blue decorative linings around the edges, and a v-neck cut, a gold feathery shawl draped over her shoulders, and she has thigh-high blue and orange leather boots with a small heel. She’s wearing gold jewelry, her earrings feature the same blue gemstone as her staff, while the leaf motif repeats between the bits of staff and her necklace pendant. She’s wearing a gold feathery tiara that matches her scarf. Her hair is long and dark red/purple, with a braid coiled around her head behind the tiara.

Crono, Marle and Frog stand on a colossal chain across the Mountain of Woe, looking to the Kingdom of Zeal in the distance (inspired by Chrono Trigger).

Painting of the bottom of a grand waterfall in daylight. A small island with a large rock settled on it emerges above the water; the legendary Mana Sword is embedded in the rock, glowing softly with a magical blue light. (Inspired by Secret of Mana)

Painting of an underwater themed temple, heavy on blues and sea-greens. Water curtains line the sides, supported by aged, twisted stone columns. Stained glass windows flank the focal point in the center; a pedestal with the magical Mana Seed floating above it. (Inspired by Secret of Mana)

We’re in a pleasant forest setting, with lots of greenery and the sun peeking through the canopy. We see tree houses made of natural materials on the trees.
A young, dark skinned elf is running madly towards the camera, laughing. He’s holding a chicken under one arm and a rope strung with strange berries in the other hand. A whole flock of chickens is following him, apparently crazy about the berries.
The chaotic scene is being watched by two shocked bystanders.

A ladybug clad in an armor made of leaves and flower petals stands on a large white flower. They’re wielding magic wands, a spellbook and a shield made out of a seed husk. White war paint adorns their face and shield. They are casting fire spells against a horde of wasps.

Destiny, painted for the 2024 Upper Deck Fleer Ultra Matriarchs of Marvel set.
Portrait view of a figure wearing a mysterious golden mask. She’s wearing a hooded black cloak. In front of her there’s an open book with glowing writing, she’s extending a hand gloved in black fabric towards it and the viewer, as if to read the words. Pages covered in glowing symbols float away from the book around her.

A depiction of the tarot card six of swords. We see a stylized image of a woman rowing on a small boat. There’s a white cat cradled in her lap. The sea behind her is rough, but gets progressively calmer in the direction she’s going. Six smoky hands wielding swords are pursuing her.
The style of the painting mimics a stained glass artwork.
