Challenged myself this month to try this out. Got this far on my third attempt before tapping out.

Might’ve gone a teeny bit overboard on my entry for this month’s @trueref.bsky.social challenge, but it was fun!

A pencil sketch of a very large orc. They're sitting in a confident and relaxed pose on a rock, with their axe (because of who I am as a person, it's a pulaski, actually), dressed in tall logging boots, loose pants, and a leather armor vest over a flannel shirt with the sleeves ripped off. They have several tattoos: vine maple leaves on their right arm, some Sycthian inspired ungulates on their left arm, and the word "left", tattooed on their right knuckles (Look, you don't have to be smart to be good and kind and smash bad guys). The sides of their head are shaved and on the side you can see is another tattoo, a Scythian-style woodland caribou. Their hair is in a long braid, tied off with bear bells and steller's jay feathers.

Eep! I made an art. This is my D&D character, Will Feral. I don't know what else to say about them, lol.

I thought I'd make an illustration. The reference of July's Draw This! challenge of True Reference inspired me. I saw immediately a fierce gladiator, ready to fight...
Hope you like it

First post and first art challenge! Loved the pose, I've been wanting to do a dramatic illustration to get back into drawing. I always like the concept of the Lady of the Lake. I also got to try some cool effects to make her look more ethereal.

I made this based on the tutorial by Sylessae on TrueRef.
In order: Frankenstein (with extra adjustments and detailing), no reference and with reference.

Regora Firstdaughter, former Minister of Battles, Upriser and Agitator. She is a stout dwarf with short hair and mutton chops, wearing layered clothing secured by a belt. She is missing her armored chestpiece and shoulder guards, but still wears her groin protector, spiked bots, and armguards. Her mace rests loosely in her left hand. Regora is seated upon some rocks, gazing up to her right (the viewer's left).

War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions
Generals order their soldiers to kill
And to fight for a cause they have long ago forgotten

A drawing of a dark skinned, dark haired elf. Her head is tilted and she has a cocky grin on her face. She's wearing gold armor, a heavy red cloak trimmed with fur and sitting on an ornate gold, green and wooden chair. She's holding sword with a gold ornate hilt and lightning bolts wrap around her prosthetic left arm (viewer's right). On her right side lays a large fluffy black and white dog.

Behind them is an open panel of green and gold curtains.

On the side of a hill in the deep forest green
Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested brown
Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain
Sleeps unaware of the clarion call

#tradart so I am a touch paranoid about ruining it once I add details or color. so maybe #wip #fantasyart #art

Designed this OC on a whim; based on the reference image. This one really helped me put some of my worldbuilding ideas into perspective; the reference being such a striking visual that sent me down a creative rabbit hole almost immediately.
