An A4 poster with a 'No Kings', anti-establishment theme. Around the illustration is a medieval style border in a maroon colour with gold accents. The accents are flowery with a focus on the Carnation which is very significant for the portuguese revolution of April 25th 1974. The illustration itself depicts a group of heroes of all ages and themes (Fantasy, superhero, vampire, sci-fi, modern), standing on a raised stone platform covered in carnations. This platform has a statue that is being pulled and broken out of it's usual spot. The statue depicts a stoic king with a D12 shaped artifact in hand. The kings head and legs have been broken, the statue is covered in red paint and crows steal the statues crown. Crows are the TTRPG Events mascot. On top of the statue, the Modern hero, wearing a loose yellow jumpsuit holds on to the statues hand and lifts carnations above her head. the carnations have a bright red glow and a 9 inside a D12 shaped sun. the 9 stands for the 9th year of Rolisboa. The heroes on the platform are interacting with each other and the crowd that gathered around, celebrating the fall of the statue and the king. In the background are great buildings in blue and red tones blurring into the sky that forms the silhouette of a carnation. The building has a plethora of portuguese graffiti. "Abaixo a Tirania" (Down with Tyranny), "Tirania nunca mais" (Tyranny Never Again), "Reis Não" (No Kings). Crows all around the piece drop carnations from the sky. The piece has a greenish flash of light behind the Kings head as it breaks that overlaps over the pictures frame but not the people. At the top the events logo next to a D12 is placed on a golden plaque covered by floral motifs. The events name "Rolisboa" is a portmanteau of "Rola" (Roll) and Lisboa. Next to it is the year 26 and below the words "Jogos Narrativos" (Narrative Games) At the bottom of the piece are the place and date: "Biblioteca Palácio Galveis" "19-20 Setembro" (September)
Had the opportunity to illustrate the poster of the biggest TTRPG event in Portugal for @rolisboa.bsky.social
It was an absolute blast and honor to be able to try my hand at such a fantastic theme for such a great event
