A shepherd, nothing more

A black and white vignette of a shepherdess with a flock of sheep. In front of her is a black one, and she’s nuzzling into the hand of the girl. The shepherdess is posed in a guarded and unsure way. Her dress is simple and rumpled, and the skirts are lifted up just slightly, showing a pair of black hooves underneath.

A drawing of a woman, sitting gingerly on a windowsill. Her hair is blonde and curly, her face is pale and focused. She’s wearing a blouse, a vest and a long bright orange skirt. In front of her stands a little easel. She paints.

She’s not a girl who misses much

A painting of Nina Fortner, done in cool tones. She’s aiming a gun off screen, but looking in direction of the camera with a sad expression. On the background there’s a mansion and a few more buildings are visible, as well as some tangled rose bushes. A sleeve on her right shoulder is torn, showing blood.

Caressed by words

A painting of a person who stands in front of some bookshelves, with a poetry book open. Out of a book, a bright red ghost flies out, gently caressing their face. Their eyes are closed in bliss.

28/30, telling lies

An ink drawing of Nick Allen, smoking and speaking. Overlapping his body in places we see a faint outline of a ghost, repeating - or, perhaps, originating- the gesture.

27/30, cheater

An ink drawing of Nick Allen, sitting relaxed and calm at a game table. There are some dice just thrown at the table in front of him - and there’s a third die, concealed in the palm of his hand.

25/30, close quarters

An ink drawing of Nick and Olgerd hiding from a guardsman in an empty carriage. The only light in the image is a bright pointed light of a guardsman’s lantern, but you can still see their faces: Olgerd is tensely following a guardsman with his eyes. Nick is looking right at him, holding a finger up to his lips. Their legs are interwoven to fit the tight space.

Don’t you know an apparition is a cheap date?
#monsteranime

A painting of “Anna Liebert” and Jan Suk sitting at the bar. Jan is leaning at the bar top, staring at his companion lovingly. “Anna” is sitting up straight, holding a cocktail glass in her hand. Her upper body is based in a bright blue projected light, giving her ethereal appearance and making her face hard to see. They are sitting close, but at no point their bodies touch.

24/30 a year ago

23/30 hellish things

An ink drawing of Nick Allen sporting a new set of arms and armor. His knife is replaced by a black arched dagger. His old crossbow - by one made of a scull of a minor demon. Under his usual white shirt he is wearing a set of black armor, almost scale like, leaning close to skin. However his clothes and his skin alike sport numerous marks of tears and burns to show for it.

22/30 breaking and entering (but mostly breaking)

An ink drawing of Nick Allen with his colleague, Reed, a goblin artificer. They are both jumping into a broken window, except there’s minor explosion happening in the room that they’re braking in, and Nick is trying to shield himself from the blast. Reed is looking right at it excitedly, wielding another explosive in his hand.
