Happy Dragon Age Day!

If these games have brought you half as much joy (and torment lol) as they have brought me over the past 16 years, I’d appreciate the shit out of you taking a peek at my DA stickers and prints artbyloreperkins.etsy.com

Some fun enamel pin designs I’m working on for my DnD table. Habrix, my fey wanderer ranger, is on the right and on the left is their revenant wife Taibhse. I have spent a significant amount of time crying over these sweet, gay halflings and their tragic romance

I went with a modern AU Orym’s super chill Air Ashari plant daddy home gym “workout cooldown beats” vibe for @exandriaartists.bsky.social Critical Role-Fi project and my only regret is not have more time for fun little details

Happy Pride!! 🏳️‍🌈

Thinking fondly of my sun conure aaracockra inquisitive rogue that I made for TTRPG Pride last year. His name is Socrates and he’s based on the Questioning flag and I made him a little last minute but he’s important to me 🧡💛💚💙❓

Happy 10 years of Critical Role!! Sorry, we’re all out of cake at the moment, Trinket got to it first 🫠

It was a joy to paint Trinket the Wonder Bear as my contribution to @exandriaartists.bsky.social CR 10th Anniversary Project

Six fists of differing skin tones burst forth from the open jaws of a snarling wolf. The fist of a dark-skinned person holds aloft a trans pride flag, and a lighter skinned arm shows a tattoo reading “trans liberation now”

Quote with a fantasy being that's NOT a vampire or a werewolf!

I am sadly unable to continue the centaur theme but have another blue-skinned Corellon 💙
A low angle perspective of a blue-skinned figure of Corellon is in a 3-point landing pose after taking the eye of muscular, green Gruumsh, who stumbles and clutches at their bleeding face behind them. A burning field rages below and an ominous sky of clouds illuminated by otherwordly light above. The awe-stricken, tiny figure of a soldier looks up at the towering gods as he is about to be hit by a massive, arcing blood spatter that extends from the ground up into the heavens above.

Hey 💙☁️ I’m Lore (they/he), a trans non-binary guy, formerly a professional scenic artist for film & tv. I love fantasy art, painting DnD characters is my absolute favorite. Blorbos from my shows are ofc a close 2nd (primarily blorbos from CR, D20, Good Omens, LotR, & Dragon Age fyi)
The blue-skinned figure of Corellon towers over a burning landscape, kneeling after striking a blow to Gruumsh’s eye, which bleeds as the Ruiner’s massive form stumbles in the background, clutching at his wound. A tiny, awed soldier below stops in his tracks to take in the scene as a giant arc of blood that reaches from the ominous clouds to the blackened ground comes toward him. The round and expressive face of Michael Sheen as Aziraphale in Good Omens, warmly lit by a fire, is gasping in shock at something out of frame A freckled halfling with long red hair stand with a quarterstaff with detailed flora and fauna carvings. They are dressed in a dark green heavy fabric kilt and a leather armor shell that resembles autumn leaves in shape and color. A close up of their face is in the upper left corner, where you can see one green eye and one bright purple, and they wear a crown of autumn leaves with a small vole skull in the center, carved wood antlers atop it. Low angle of a stoic, backlit, seated figure on the Inquisition Throne (from Dragon Age Inquisition) with raven hair in a side shave. They rest their head on a skull they are holding up next to them and wear elaborate black and red leather boots finely decorated with raven imagery to pay homage to their home in the Free Marches. They are the Inquisitor, who has an open wrap shirt and a flat chest. They wear gold jewelry and behind them is a stained glass window the beams of light stream through.

Corellon the Arch Heart takes the eye of Gruumsh the Ruiner during the Calamity as an awed soldier stops mid-battle in the burning fields to witness the spectacle.

(right before being drowned in the massive arc of centaur-making Betrayer God blood, presumably)

#criticalrolefanart
Corellon, a blue-skinned figure wearing sparse gold armor, kneels after striking a blow on his opponent, the massive green-skinned Gruumsh, who clutches his bleeding eye, where Corellon struck. An arc of blood sweeps down from the ominous clouds to the burning fields below as the tiny figure of a terrified soldier looks at the towering gods battling before him.

Orym of the Air Ashari, Savior Blade of the Tempest, Wielder of Seedling, the Wayward Pilgrim, Bold Warrior of Bells Hells 🍃

Some @criticalrole.bsky.social art I just finished up right on time for Orym to get a new look 😭 Time to start a new piece of my favorite gay halfling, I guess
