#PortfolioDay part two!

When I'm not tattooing, I'm illustrating scenes & characters from my ttrpg campaigns.

I also open commissions a few times a year and draw other people's characters!

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.

I got some ribbons to hand out at MCM! I'm planning to give them to WHA cosplayers, table artists, and people who recognise Olly when I cosplay him!!

Sooo much this. Less frustrating for the Guardians since you know exactly how much you'll get and when, but having played early access and tearing through the first regions of each run... the cattail and driftwood collection has been killing me.

And like. Basically every Type I have ticked off. And. So much orc culture lore. And. I. Truly I have never been more locked in.

This isn't even just about Thjazi and Hal hitting so many existing trigger points for Symon Family but also so many other characters. Teor SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE THIBAULT, accent, cadence and "introduces self with full name and handshake" all included. "Greyspire" and "Pridesire" even sound similar.
