Rofelia Uril’hana • Druid-Circle of the Moon(s) • Half moon elf/Half changeling

This sweet bean is the reimagined version of my very first D&D character. Ever since I made her ten years ago, she has never left my brain.

#RofeliaUrilhana #D&DCharacterArt #DigitalArt #Illustration #procreate

A fair skinned half-elven girl, with pastel periwinkle hair and bright teal eyes, stands upright with head turned slightly. Her expression is soft. Contemplative. And perhaps a little sad.

I totally forgot I didn’t do an art challenge in 2024. Too burnt out from finishing the ol masters program lol

Last one I did was in 2023 so I’m definitely due for one

Day 1 + 2 of #DarkArtober2023 Noodle + Deer — I wanted to explore vibrant colors and oddity in my traditional pieces for this past art challenge. I think this first piece was a great start

#traditionalart #illustration #mixedmedia #noodledeer #AristocatsDraws

A wibbly wobbly deer, painted with vibrant colors of green, orange, yellow, and detailed with purple and black. It’s face and body are reminiscent of Mayan Guatemala wooden folk masks.

I’m thinking about doing an ArtTober thing again this year ✨ And I think I finally found a prompt list that I like. I’ll be combining prompts so I don’t burn myself out (and maybe on the off days I’ll post my 2024 pieces)

Anyway~ so excited!

I’m officially all out of artfight attacks/revenges to post. Now I can focus on spamming yall with my OC’s until the drawing challenge month arrives ✨

Ari-Stocats ☀️ @ari-stocats.bsky.social · 26d

Art attack I did for instagram.com/La_terrores/ of her character Kanelitoh. I fell in love with this little happy guy’s design~ He was so fun to draw!

Art attack I did for artfight.net/~Edens_Solst... of their character Nedrick. I adored this #halforc #barbarian in all his werebear glory~ So of course I had to draw him on the verge of losing it

#Artfight2025 #teamfossils #digitalart #procreate #dungeonsanddragons

A sturdy half orc with green skin black hair and beard, glares at the viewer with a fierce expression. His tusked teeth clenched tightly as if trying to hold back the beast. A glowing silhouette of a bear roars in the background.

Have I mentioned how much I love halforcs?

A enby elf with fair skin and extremely long wavy red hair. They have green eyes and a green tunic dress to match. They use their magic wand like conductor baton, weaving ethereal strophe in the air.

A red/purple tiefling (back turned toward you) smooching a changeling. Both faces are obscured by each others hair in this position. It’s pretty cute and very gay 🌈

Art attack I did for toyhou.se/moomoomarlowe of their character Lotus 🪷 As soon as I read this bunny boy’s story I knew what I had to do

#artfight2025 #teamfossils #digitalart #procreate #dungeonsanddragons

A harengon mage with black hair and ears, casting a spell. He seems to wince in pain at the sound the magic makes despite him being the one to manifest it. His arms are wrapped in bandages. From injury or insecurity? It’s difficult to say.
