A colourful artwork with a ducky throwing a frog happily up while floating along a pond filled with pink lily flowers.

Floris the Frog reading a book in his bed with a quilted plaid and a frog tea pot on it.

Essek Thelyss from Critical Role but reimagined as a frog (or a Grung if you wanna go D&D TTRPG specific). He's floating while casting a Dunemancy spell inbetween his hands.

Circe, Greek Mythology, the first witch, walking through her forest amongst two hogs, two wolves and a lion. She looks to the viewer from a side eye as if you are suddenly spotted. Inspired by Circe by Madeline Miller

Share your couples art 💕

a couple where the man holds the girls head and smooshes his face/lips onto hers. She has a surprised expression and clearly didn't expect it. the artwork is in grey scale and has a big pink heart in the background

grey scale artwork of a man and a woman hugging under a starry sky. We see the upper back of the man while the woman is hugging him, half of her face peeks out over his shoulder, she has her eyes closed.

a couple sitting cozy together, with the half orc having one eye closed while the drow is nuzzling/trying to kiss her cheek. Characters belong to ClaraSalizArt and Itsberru

I've never seen Floris be so soft and fluffy! 🐸🐺✨

#art #froggoween #floristhefrog #pintober #werewolf

digital artwork of Floris the Frog as a werewolf. He has brown fur all over his body and two ears protruding behind his eyes. There are 5 pointy teeth sticking out of his mouth and at the end of all his digits are pointy nails. This is part of an enamel pin design for Pintober Froggoween.

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.

The title/thumbnail combo ended up way too dramatic 🙈

The most powerful way to market your art as a book illustrator (doubled my income!)
