A chance encounter

illustration inspired by the Scandinavian fairytale, "Bride of the Lindworm". A prince in the form of a lindworm perches on a moss-covered rock and peers curiously at a shepherdess from across a dark pond. The woman reaches toward him. The scene is set in a dark forest.

Two vampire themed artworks!
(Made for larsyy__ on toyhouse, 2nd one made for stirfried_worms on toyhouse)

A digital drawing of a young man sitting on a chair. He is seemingly a vampire, with sharp canines. In his right hand, which is a metal prostethic, he holds a written document. In his left hand he is holding a necklace between his fingers playfully. The room is adorned with decadent decor.

digital painting of a woman (vampire) leaning over a young man lying on the floor injured. She is wearing renaissance style clothing, her dark curly hair has grey streaks. The young man is wearing a soldier uniform. They are in a forrest.

I want to stay positive though, but it gets to a point guys, it gets to a point. I am still in the mode of not having given up yet though so I just bank on it all kicking in soon and working out in the end. I have to put in more effort for that to happen, but let´s stay positive

Everything has been really stressful for over a year now. Financial problems, pressure at university and just overall shittiness. After my financial problems calmed down two months ago, I thought it would be uphill from there, but really I am noticing how this whole existence in stress had a toll.

For a boardgame by Board&Dice I was asked to imagine religious ceremonies in ancient Minoan culture. Ritual leaping over bulls is a common motif there.

And yes, this was exactly as challenging to draw as it looks!
I looked at SO many pictures of gymnasts to figure out the jumper's pose. 😅

Illustration showing a ritual leaping over bulls in ancient Minoan culture. 3 young men are demonstrating the stunt: one of them is shown mid-leap while 2 others watch and cheer him on. In the background an audience is watching.

Digital painting of an angel with upside down bird-wings, wielding a sword made of blood, and a flaming crown on top of his head. His eyes are closed, and he has a blank expression, pale skin and voluminous platinum hair. He is also showing his left palm, which has an open eye embedded onto it.

every month or so someone makes a viral joke like this about how drawing porn (it’s usually specifically furry porn) is easy money. meanwhile every professional porn artist i know is constantly terrified that another site is gonna crack down on adult content due to pressure from paypal or mastercard

Digital drawing. A young man stands in the center of the composition, looking up into a light shining from above. he is being surrounded by a crowd of humanoid creatures who have urchins as heads. The enviroment is dark and you can´t see where it is taking place. The background is patterened with simple shaped eyes.
