Hi #PortfolioDay, I'm Alena, a freelance illustrator who loves painting things with character, capturing little story moments. Working mainly - but not only - in card/board games & book covers.

Take a look at what I do at www.ajinak.cz 🎨

A collage of digital paintings: A sneaky red dragon above a forest stream, examining a little garnet. Two trios of bookmark illustrations, one centering around scenes (viking/valkyrie/valhalla, dwarf and swords, innkeeper and his rat inside a tavern), the other around female characters (vampire ball, steampunk, dark fantasy and magic). A cat warlock with glowing dual-bladed sword in a dusk scene. Arthas as a puppet paladin held by a boy, with red rose petals swirling around. An albino murloc pirate strolling a sunny beach, grinning, holding a sabre and a bamboozled fish.

One character has with pale blue-green skin, dark eye makeup and long orange-red hair, in blood-red and black helm and armor resembling the carapace of a Japanese rhinoceros beetle.

Right: the character is an early-twenties, masculine human. He has warm pale skin, light brown short hair and green eyes. He wears a deep olive green and gold blouse, brown cropped pants, and brown lace up boots. He carries a brown leather messenger bag, and a barn owl is landing on his shoulder.

They have light tan skin, pale ash blonde hair and fur, digitigrade furry legs and split hooves, curled horns, deer ears, and a long tufted tail. they are androgynous, wearing a cream blouse and green pleated skirt; and carrying a red hardcover book.

Happy #PortfolioDay again! I'm also Jori, the fantasy/scifi/cyberpunk illustrator. Hoping to include more of the "fantasy" genre in this portfolio, but who has the time! Right now I do lots of work for Catalyst Game labs and the Shadowrun IP.

#illustration

Final cover art by Jori Bolton for the Shadowrun novella, The Mosaic Run, by Jennifer Brozek. The artwork shows two young women running down a narrow corridor in a server room while a security drone pursues and fires upon them. One woman aims a firearm at the drone.

Illustration by Jori Bolton of a dwarf woman wearing a flowing red cap and firing a crossbow at a leaping vampire-like creature in a desert cave for the Shadowrun TTRPG book, Astral Ways.

Illustration of a dwarf man and an ork woman in a dark, underground, abandoned subway station being used as a laboratory. The dwarf man grimaces and holds a hand up to glowing scratch marks on his face, while the ork woman in the background shines a flashlight at an apparently immobile rat monster held up by metal posts and connected to glowing orange tubes. Illustration by Jori Bolton for Catalyst Game Labs and the Shadowrun TTRPG.

Cover art for Shadowrun: Margin Calls, a TTRPG gaming supplement from Catalyst Game Labs, with an illustration by Jori Bolton showing a young girl walking with a glowing purple/blue coyote and looking towards the background of the image where a massive, diamond-shaped sign has fallen from the top of a high-rise onto a parked delivery van, crushing the van's roof and part of the windshield. Police stand around while a forensic team examines the vehicle.

I just finished this up in a SmArtSchool mentorship class with Sam Weber. 😊 The assignment was to create an illustration with an original character, and I went with my current D&D character 😅

A woman with a shaved head in gold armor stands among dark briars. The briar thorns pierce her armor and skin in a few places, and she hangs her head in a defeated posture.

Illustration of a drow standing in front of a large white snake with wings. The drow has long white hair and dark green clothing with copper accents. He holds a dagger above his head with blue magic arcing between the blade and his hand. They are in the Underdark, with blue spores and mushrooms surrounding them.

Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. They are at a high altitude looking down into a valley with a river. From left: Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape); Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes, holding a blue palantir); Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff that crooks over and holds a glowing white stone); Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in one hand).

Illustration from first person view, showing a hand holding up an opalescent stone with a hole in the center. The stone has brass filigree, and through the hole is a view of a mountain sheep. The background is a mountainous landscape. There are slight magical effects showing that the view through the stone is a zoomed in view of the background.

An alabaster gargoyle and a feminine figure dressed in black robes with their faces shadowed by hoods. The pair are within a gothic styled church, standing before an altar on a dais, preaching to spectators behind the POV. Candles cast plenty of light in the room despite the flames being purple, and all the decorations and the architecture is gothic in design. They look as though they are in the middle of performing a sermon in unison
