The final third quest. It was a useful experience.
Drawing other people's characters allows you to step out of your comfort zone and experiment with different styles, helping you to improve your skills more quickly

A creature on a red background is looking at the viewer. It has the body of a large cat with a loose tail. Instead of a head, it has a yellow star with one eye.

#CloudyJam #art #request #cobold #DnD #pen

Second request.
The Kobold character was created from a text description for the DnD party.

The character is a young
kobold sorcerer named Rago.
He has bluish scales and amber-yellow eyes. He is the only one in his clan who has the ability to use magic from birth. It is likely that he inherited a portion of real dragon blood from his parents.
The final point in the
story of life in the clan was an incident
at the warehouse. While on duty, he
couldn't control the magical fire that
had erupted in his stomach, and he
accidentally burned down the entire
warehouse with a month's worth of provisions.
As a result, he was banished from his
homeland with rags and sharp objects.
While fleeing from his kindred, he
lost a piece of his tail, now
shortened by about a quarter.
In the current time, Rago has got out
on the surface and is learning to live in
the civilized world, and along the way
learning his magical capabilities.
Wears he either everyday clothes,
or light leather armor, and on the
back likes to put a small
cloth cloak.

#CloudyJam #art #request #traditional #pen

I've collected some requests on one social network. I finally found the time to post them here as well.

The first request seems quite mysterious to me. I used alcohol markers and a regular pen.

A portrait of a young man surrounded by three herons. He has long black and white hair and his face resembles the coloration of these birds

The space around you is filled with the smell of dampness and mold.
All you can hear is the creaking of rotten wood that is ready to collapse beneath your feet at any moment.
Four predatory eyes stare at you from the darkness.

Four predatory eyes stare at you from the darkness.
You see two creatures coming out into the light. They look like cats, but their bodies are so covered in moss and mushrooms that it's hard to believe what you're seeing.

An African centaur?! Yes, I definitely needed to do that..

I thought why not make an African centaur. I took a zebra, Ethiopian traditional clothing, and weapons as a basis. The result is a spirited warrior who protects her tribe.

My favorite underground thorns

I continue to fill my red sketchbook. I remembered the dragons from How to Train Your Dragon. They are very unusual and memorable.

Usually, the eye pattern on the wings serves to protect them from predators, but these butterflies are also looking out for their victims

The black background is dotted with red eyes, among them you can see moths on the wings of which red eyes are also depicted.

On the surface

Bubbles appeared on the surface of the water. Hair appeared in the sea foam. The mermaid poked her head out from under the water. She was serenely rocking on the waves and looking up at the dark sky.

The other day I found an article where they found a frog on which mushrooms grew.
I was inspired to draw what will happen with this frog in a while. The future fate of the frog is up to you..

It wasn't jam

The mermaid I drew thanks to the randomizer. She's lying somewhere on land, and she's obviously eaten something.
