am I doing a bit to cope with money insecurity? yeah
do I also really yearn for that kind of wide spanning creative experience? absolutely
@ big benevolent ttrpg creators please pay me to spend like a year drawing one hundred million neat little guys for your game
we all know I have no life, so:
free level design advice for creating an FPS arena that people will call the best multiplayer map ever made for generations.
Are you interested in illustration for your #ttrpg project, your #dnd character, or something like that?
I've got some more art in my media tab now, so a next step for me is gonna be opening for commissions soon, once I've got promo materials ready β but I'm happy to discuss comms in DMs now!
I def remember having a LOT of fun with it hehe
I love Heavy Paint a lot but I hope someday it can be free from the seemingly inherent bugginess that comes with being a web app
I think I drew this in 2024? Kind of an OC that never got a name or anything.

I never posted this?! This was a self-portrait I drew late last year to use as an avatar but I didn't like how it read at that scale β but I'm pleased with how I captured my own likeness.

A pair of old @friends-table.bsky.social pieces from the very start of their Sangfielle season, still quite fond of the style experimentation here :)

For context, @/gentledownpour was an old twitter alias, and luxatile was and is my furry alt. Sometimes I just don't sign my art, sometimes I just put IA (my initials) or something. I'm very good at brand building, you see.
Don't mind me y'all I just remembered that uploading old art is a thing I can do and it didn't just have to go down forever with Twitter π€
Also if you notice my art being signed by lots of different aliases... that's all me lmao. I hope my art style is consistent enough that it doesn't look sus >_>
Illustration of a woman wearing a mask and white robes, swinging a smoking censer while readying a kick. Chained crows are flying behind her.
Commission from a few years ago, for Maid (who I don't think is on bsky?), of her D&D character.

Illustration of a drunk skeleton dressed in ragged, bullet-ridden gunslinger clothes, leaning over a table with scattered cards and coins.

Art from a few years ago of my character from a Songs for the Dusk (by @yrgirlkv.leafside.studio) campaign, Aivi, and her very strange little familiar.

Illustration of a deer witch in front of a bubbling cauldron, holding some ingredients and examining a vial of liquid. The background is an art-nouveau-inspired abstract tapestry.
Commission for @yrrzy.net from a few years ago!

I wanna draw so so much more but lately my energy hasn't come until like 9 PM. Oh, disability...
Sneezing a lot around a well-mannered cleric until they run out of spell slots
I do genuinely really love thinking about this kinda stuff though. In my world dwarves belong to the same genus as humans (homo) and I've thought a lot about how evolution might've worked to give them the classic dwarf features we know and love.
it's funny how I try to push proportions and stuff when I do "species designs" or whatever but I still think I went pretty tame even though they look like 1:2 brick shithouses haha
me: posts a pair of humanoids standing in the void with room for jesus between them
bluesky moderation bot: awoooga!!! ππππ bit spicy there don't you think!!! π₯΅π³π³
Two dwarves: A light-skinned male dwarf with a full beard, and a dark-skinned female dwarf with long hair and sideburns. They're very hairy.
psa if your fantasy dwarves look like they shave you will not see heaven
I'd been in Norway for a bit, that was me coming back a few days ago ^^
A long stretch of a raised indoor walkway with windows on the left and a reflective surface on the right. The ceiling is curved and fitted with intense blue light that colors the entire space purple and indigo.
utterly bizarre (/pos) vibes at the Manchester airport the other night
a collage of pencil sketches in a white papered sketchbook. the subject of the sketches is myself in my true sluglike form, and it is making many silly faces and poses.
some quick sketches... I am a creature of many squishy shapes
Now, both of the wolves talk sometimes, and they're both really quite confident that if I just do the thing the first wolf wants then it'll be so inexplicably amazing that the universe will reward me duly
I don't know how to tell the wolves that they're kind of dumb and arrogant
Inside me there are two wolves.
One wants to make an interactive memoir in the form of a 3D recreation of my family's cabin from memory with all the rich emotional residue from that place, including little static scenes no one but me can relate to
The other wants to make money
A crow is standing next to a melting snowbank and says "I love when the snow starts to melt and all the treasures appear". It hops along and says "Let me show you my collection". We see an assortment of objects at its feet. "54 aromatics nubs, a fine preener, assorted flavour discs, beak lovelies, flim-flams, shiny poke-stick, and best ofβwait..." We see a close of of the crow looking over its shoulder "where's my jiggly squibbler?"
