halloween alexa, ringmaster edition 🎩💗

[ #art #OCart #halloween #OCtober ]

Digital illustration of Alexa, a half-elven woman with pale skin, blue eyes and long red hair. She's wearing shimmery makeup and a circus ringmaster outfit. A heart-shaped spotlight is shining on her. She's holding a whip which is snapping in the air above her, as she touches a gloved hand to her top hat and smiles at the viewer.

Finished the ref for my spooky goth vampire boy, Edgar~ 👉✨️🌕

I've only played him once so far but he is v fun to play and also a bitch 💅 but that's just because he's jaded.

[ #artsky #ocsky #trrpg #ttrpgart #dnd5e #vampire #myart #digitalart ]

A digital reference containing two portraits and a full-body piece of OP's 5e player character: Edgar, a level 3 half-elf vampire lunar sorcerer ✨️

The two portraits are of the same character at two different ages: 14 y/o and 21 y/o. The younger portrait has shaggy short dark hair, pale purple skin, and silver eyes. His eyes are sunken and cheeks are gaunt from malnourishment. The older portrait has the same pale purple skin and silver eyes, but his dark hair is pulled back in a ponytail out of his face. His eyes are still sunken and his cheeks are still gaunt.

The full-body piece showcases his outfit consisting of a long skirt, dark form-fitting top, and a cloak with a high collar and sleeves that go to his knuckles. He is holding an umbrella to shield himself from the light. With his free hand he is pointing away from his body and silvery magic sparkles come from his fingertip.

Tracey got some new tattoos and a nice tan while at camp with Domino, so I drew a new VTT portrait for him. 👀✨️

(hello yes I'm not dead just fighting my mental health and v low on spoons lately but today was nice and relaxing, so art was made)

[ #ocsky #ttrpg #pf2e #pathfinder #artsky #digitalart ]

A digital portrait from the shoulders up of my Pathfinder player character, Tracey. He is shirtless, his tan skin is even darker with light tan lines from his shirt visible. He has dark, shaggy brown hair and bright green eyes, looking off to the right. There are green scars visible on his shoulders, neck, forehead, and chest as well as new fine-line magical tattoos around his eyes.

The sky behind him is bright blue with light clouds and Tracey is smiling, looking content.

My Pathfinder PC Tracey's first encounter with the Voidfish and the moment that gifted him his magic 👀✨️

[ #ocsky #artsky #ttrpg #ttrpgart #pathfinder #pf2e #art #myart ]

A digital illustration of my Pathfinder PC, Tracey, as a teenager underwater and floating above the gargantuan eye of a fish. Tracey's back is to the viewer as he floats with his hands up in shock at what he is seeing beneath him.

The giant eye of this fish has what appears to be a green moon as its pupil, surrounded by a dark iris with star-like lights shimmering through it. The fish is a dark green in color and sumilar sparkles shine on its scales.

This image depicts the first time Tracey touched the "time stream" and encountered what is known as the Voidfish. The lake where he lived as a teen was a time-locked area. One night, he and a few friends were out late swimming and messing around near the lake and Tracey tripped off the dock and fell in, crashing through what he *thought* was a reflection of the moon... Only to see this beneath the surface of Lake Halcyon! 👁

Cyrwen Mercar🐉 & Saros Thorne ⚔️

Finished portraits of my two Rooks✨️
I tried to embrace the texture of the brushes I always use a bit more on these instead of blending everything into oblivion 🤔

[ #DragonAge #Veilguard #DAtV #Rook #myart #digitalart #artsky #fanart ]

Side-by-side digital portraits of two elven men, Cyrwen (left) and Saros (right). Cyrwen has warm tan skin, wavy dark brown hair, and heterochromia in his eyes (his left eye is green, his right eye is brown). Saros has olive tan skin, short near black hair, red eyes with black sclera, and darkened veins visible beneath his skin. Cyrwen is smirking and looks playful, Saros has a serious expression and looks stern.

There is a small rainbow flag and trans pride flag beneath Cyrwen and a small bisexual pride flag beneath Saros.

Some NPCs (former PCs) for my friend @mishimallows.bsky.social's game, Lazarus and Stratus 💪

I finally finished something whee✨️

[ #ttrpg #ttrpgart #pathfinder #pf2e #artsky #ocsky #digitalart ]

Digital half-body portraits of two men, one a duskwalker covered in blood and the other a half-orc with lightning arcing from his fists.

The duskwalker is Lazarus; he has gray-blue skin, dark hair pulled back in a bun, and bright white glowing eyes. His fist is raised and covered in blood, he's smiling with blood splatter on his face and chest.

The half-orc is Stratus; he has greenish skin with a tan chest, stomach, and muzzle, dark hair pulled back in a braid behind his head, and dark reddish-brown eyes. He is cracking his knuckles in front of his chest with lightning arcing from his fists.

Lazarus is a champion (paladin) and Stratus is a monk. 💪✨️

Not me drawing an OC I haven't drawn in actual years to repurpose him as an NPC in the Mass Effect 5e game I'm gonna try to DM...... 🫣

This is Turiv, Reaper War veteran, Spectre, and typical Turian hard-ass. ✨️

A digital portrait of a stern looking Turian wearing black armor with red lights and accents. His carapace is brown in color and his eyes are a bright green. He has white clan tattoos/markings on his face, primarily on his chin, nose, and forehead.

It's become a running joke in the campaign I'm in that my character, Tracey, looks constipated whenever he tries to lie 😂 he has NO charisma and the only reason he's good at schmoozing at all is because of a persuasion bonus from an item he got playing cards with a Goddess.

Tracey's "lying face" ⬇️

My DM commissioned pieces from @/luxris on Tumblr of the campaign characters based on silly emojis and this is Tracey's lying face lol

He has tan skin, dark hair, and green scars with a sweaty, nervous expression on his face. The only way he could be more obviously lying is if his nose grew like Pinocchio.

Tomorrow is the big day for Jester & Fjord!

Are you all ready to celebrate the wedding in perfect Mighty Nein style? I’m sure nothing will go wrong at all 😂

A reinterpretation of Leighton’s “Call to Arms”, dedicated to the bride & groom💙✨
#criticalrole #criticalrolefanart @criticalrole.bsky.social

An illustration re-interpreting the painting “Call to Arms” by Leighton. Jester and Fjord are leaving an elegant building after getting married, followed by Caleb, Essek, Beau, Yasha, Caduceus and Veth, as Kingsley stops them on the steps, seemingly telling them about something important and pointing to the side.
He’s asking them to join on a new adventure or maybe fight an incoming danger.
All of the Mighty Nein are dressed in very fancy clothing, Jester has a beautiful white gown with pink embroidery. Every’s face is either shocked or excited.

In the background, we see various buildings, one showing the “Lavish Chateau” sign.
Many NPC, guest characters and easter eggs are hidden in the image.

Recently someone said to me, “After WWII, how many of the Nazis do you think simply folded back into everyday life, still believing they were right?”

It’s tough to stomach that there are people who really stand by the tyranny wholeheartedly.

We don't, there will be a new (and hopefully better) normal after this, that said, for the rest of our lives we'll have to be aware a non-trivial number of neighbors and fellows voted for actual fascism, and that's always going to be a bummer

the rapture happened & an angel surpassing all human gender norms appeared with this message 💌🪽

Illustration of a floating angelic masculine person with long ginger hair and white, blushed skin. The angel has four wings on the back, and two sprouting from the temples. The angel is clothed only in a rose pink cloth around the waist draping down. On the angel's chest are radiating scars, much like on the angel's face. The angel carries a long scroll that rolls down reading "My gender is / BIBLICALLY / ACCURATE". The angel is on a beige background surrounded by cream white stars.

Ysa, Mistress of the Fate Weaver.
A purple skinned tiefling with twisting, upright horns tipped with gold. Her long hair flows down behind her and gradually blends in with a galaxy that she wades through like water.
She is posed with her hands held chest high as stars drip from her finger tips.

Argo & Dean
Two women embrace leaning in to kiss one another.
One the left is Argo, the shorter of the two. She wears a long yellow open backed gown, her dark hair swept to one side as she looks up longingly towards Dean. One finger is hooked through Deans tie, pulling her closer.
One the right is Dean, she wears a dress shirt with a black tie, and black pants. Her long blonde hair is tied into a plait fastened at back of the head with a large black bow. One hand is placed on the back of Argo's head as if to pull her in closer, and the other hand is placed gently on Argo's arm.

A person stands with their back to the viewer.
A bunch of wild flowers grow in place of their head, while multiple hands gently touch their arms and shoulders.

small comic like page illustration of 2 women - Dean and Argo.
Dean is slim, covered in floral tattoos, with long blonde hair and wears ripped jeans and pale baggy tank top. Argo has a curvy figure with shoulder length blue hair and wears a sports bra and pants with white socks.
Argo leans back on the bed with their legs wrapped around Deans hips. Dean leans into Argo gripping her thigh and waist.
3 small panels surround the main illustration.
At the top is a close up of Deans eyes.
The second panel is of two hands - one pins the other to the bed.
and at the bottom is a close up of Argo's mouth, with Deans thumb gently brushing against the bottom lip.

underwater scene of yareli floating at the bottom of the ocean. she's in blue, white and cyan colors with silvery accents and green-cyan emission channel. she's facing the camera, her skirt and tail slightly blurred, as if balancing her against the flow. she's holding one arm in front of herself, and the other is raised to her side, her fingers meeting a snout of a sharrac fish, which looks very happy. at the meeting point hear-shaped bubbles and water flow. the foreground is composed of rocks and corals, behind it a sandy ocean floor with the light dancing across the green-yellow dunes. around, seaweed and rocks, rock arches, between which we can see a yogwun, khut-khut and a hiding norg. from above yareli, sunrays penetrating the surface of the water.
