It's not often that I draw a design that immediately becomes a character to me, but it happened here.

scanned a few more pen scribbles from my work notebook #art
G2 headshot pen scribbles of Loghaire Thunder Stone (uuper left, in teal) and the Silver Lady (upper right, in burgundy) from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. G2 pen scribbles of Magnus Shale Fist and Rí'an Mal'los (my custom elven Living One OC) from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. Rí'an is saying "There's no shame in being a city dwarf, Malcolm."('Malcolm' is Magnus' real name that he's embarrassed about.) Rí'an is sympathetic because she's a city-raised elf rather than the Glimmering Forest traditional elf. Various crappy G2 pen scribbles beneath my work notes. In the bottom righthand corner is my attempt to draw something with my non-dominant hand (left hand). very busy burgundy G2 pen scribble of Loghaire Thunder Stone, the elderly dwarven king from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. He's holding his family axe, Harrow.

An intimidating character taking a knee to reload her crossbow. She is wearing armor made up of cuir bouilli, maille and furs, topped with a long-beaked leather mask. She is wearing maille chausses over black fabric leg wraps, with maille thigh protection tucked into those. Those two elements are held on with leather straps and open in the back, which has the benefit of giving us a juicy thigh window. Some black fabric from an upper body garment is flowing both between her legs and around her back, the later being covered in part by large studded cuir bouilli flaps. Her arms and torso are covered in a long-sleeved maille shirt, with a cuir bouilli breastplate lined with fur covering her chest. She is wearing a belt at the waist carrying a fur covered bolt quiver and an early medieval sword in a scabbard. Her shoulders are entirely covered in a large but short black fur cloak tied in the front with leather laces. Her head is also completely obscured by the mask I mentioned before and also by a maille coiffe. She is holding a latchet crossbow with bronze fittings in one hand, and a bronze-tipped bolt in the other.

late night warmup scribble #art
A digital sketch featuring my elven OC, Rí'an Mal'los, mischievously saying "Think of the possibilities, Virgil!" to Virgil Brummond, a human NPC companion from Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. Rí'an is actually a good influence on him throughout the game, she's just being silly here.

A digitally-colored pencil half-body sketch of Virgil Brummond, a human NPC follower from Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. He wears late Victorian-era outdoor clothing, notably having a leaf-green plaid Norfolk jacket and a big brown hooded Inverness coat. He holds his default melee staff casually against his side.

The #WaybackMachine is more than nostalgia—it proves the web has a history. Sites vanish & links break, but memories & knowledge endure. That sense of safety & continuity is why preservation matters.

#Wayback1T
Gradient blue background with the limb of the Earth dominating the left side, and features the Internet Archive logo modified so that two of its four pillars make the characters 1 T, for one trillion web pages. Testimonial text reads: “The Wayback Machine is so important because the internet is temporary. Links break, sites close, content lost. Old paper records are safe in libraries and will last for generations, but our online content is at risk. The Wayback Machine preserving content is so important to make sure we don't lose our history, and can continue to discover and tell stories about where we've come from.” Signed Chris W., Blackburn, United Kingdom. Gradient blue background with the limb of the Earth peeking into the bottom of the image, and features the Internet Archive logo modified so that two of its four pillars make the characters 1 T, for one trillion web pages. Testimonial text reads: “Years ago when I first discovered that websites can disappear but are preserved on the Wayback Machine, it gave me a sense of security in digital content. In such uncertain times, being able to access information and content from my past memories makes me feel a sense of safety that is hard to describe, but means so much." Signed Amy J., San Luis Obispo, USA. Gradient blue background with the limb of the Earth dominating the lower half of the image, and features the Internet Archive logo modified so that two of its four pillars make the characters 1 T, for one trillion web pages. Testimonial text reads: “The Wayback Machine reminds us that the Web is no longer a ‘just now’ medium that lives in the moment. It has a history. Things change, become old, and die.” Signed Florian B, Wien, Austria.

An epilogue ✨

Recently finished commission for @stellastra.bsky.social.

I'm very happy with the result- it was fun working on a big piece like this, with lots of elements to incorporate ❤️

| #commission #arcanum #art #myart #artshop |
A portait of a couple. Characters are from the game Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magic Obscura of Troika Games. They are a custom main character, an elf young woman, and the npc Virgil -a male human mage. She sits in the front, with a long pink and purple gown. And Virgil stands at her side, behind the chair, in a brown coat and green vest. The scene is set in a room with a fireplace, there are trinkets from the story all around the place.

Portfolio update : The Mirror of Pride
"She's been following me for several days; I only see her at dusk. She always stays about ten paces away. When I confront her, she claims to be my shadow. I then asked her if I was her light. She replied that I was confusing my pride with her patience."
