WIP! 2 more thumbnail sketches for class key art! doing two in a day was very, very hard and these were some of the most complex things ive attempted value wise. enjoy my lifeless druid and a fist fighter i first drew in april!

@g-elo.bsky.social challenged a few of us to make a whacky sketch from one or both of these references. I quite literally combined them. half erudition, half wisdom

still trying to figure out my rendering issues, spent about 3 hours and 40 minutes on this one! but i felt like a return to muscular women was in order even if it would take a while

WIP! part way thru a spur of the moment illustration from a couple nights ago. thought there was something symbolic about praying to a dead, skewered, strung up priest. something about acheron in star rail inspired bits of this

still under the weather but heres some rendering practice i did of kit harrington with almost entirely my square brush. almost 3 hours! rendering is definitely one of the harder things for me not to overdo
