This is your friendly reminder that Iguanodon is bigger than you probably thought it was.

Another Fae :3

#oc #ocart #ocsky #art #dnd #dndoc #dungeonsanddragons

A drawing of a man standing with his back to the viewer. One hand unsnaps the button of a sheath with a glass-hilted dagger in it, while the other holds a rapier at his side. He glances over his shoulder at the viewer with a smirk. The man’s hair is dark but has a splash of white at the forelock, corresponding with patches of pale skin that give him a white mustache and eyebrow on that side of his face as well

Kind of, it’s based around a scene where they’re hanging out in front of a statue after trying to cheer Yara up. Julie is just trying to be a good friend

I’M ALIVE AND CAPABLE OF MAKING ART and here’s a drawing of my dnd character as proof!!!!1!!

#dnd #dndart #oc #ocart #art #originalcharacter #ocsky

A drawing of a man with tan skin and dark hair leaning back on his arm. His hair has a bright white forelock that corresponds to a pale patch of pigmentation on his skin which also leaves one of his eyebrows and half his mustache white as well. His forearms are decked out in tattoos and he wears two signet rings. His ears are slightly pointed.

Thanks, I’m glad to have found a grass brush that’ll make painting backgrounds less of a chore.

No longer will I need to paint every blade of grass individually

BasiliskArt || Commissions Open || Buy my books @basiliskart.bsky.social · 24d

attempt at painting a landscape with some new grass brushes. I have a lot to learn

yeah that's exactly what I mean, the "wing support" barb that would actually harm its ability to fly

BasiliskArt || Commissions Open || Buy my books @basiliskart.bsky.social · 25d

found this image through pinterest. That weird barb at the elbow shouldn't really exist

BasiliskArt || Commissions Open || Buy my books @basiliskart.bsky.social · 25d

thank you kindly!

BasiliskArt || Commissions Open || Buy my books @basiliskart.bsky.social · 25d

if there is ANYTHING in fantasy creature design that pisses me *the fuck* off, it's when they give dragons that weird fucking elbow barb in wings.

Do you KNOW how wings work??? do you know how bat wings work specifically? I'm gonna tell you right now: they don't have fingers on their fuckin elbows

I've straight-up formed bonds with some online people where I show them WIPs in DMs before I post them publicly because they were so excited about my OCs

son 😈🔞 catching up @sinreiv.bsky.social · Sep 3

btw telling an artist you like their OC/want to see more has a lot more impact than numbers of likes and shares... obv those are appreciated too, but you don't really know what ppl sharing your art think of it unless they tell you. and it feels really nice to know! a kind comment goes a long way :)
