I am beyond honored to have been given the chance to illustrate the covers for T. Kingfisher’s "The Saint of Steel" series. This was one of the most complex yet exciting projects I’ve worked on so far, and I’m so happy that it’s finally revealed!

One Last Ride ✨ My illustration painted during @abigbat.bsky.social’s mentorship.

Illustration of a knight and a pegasus, behind them a blue sky with golden sunset clouds.
The knight is wearing shining, ceremonial armour in silver, blue and gold. In one hand he holds his helmet, the other hand is stroking the nose of the pegasus. The knight’s head rests delicately on the horse’s, in a gesture of delicate friendship. The pegasus is raising one of his wings to hug the knight in return of the gesture.

A ranger and her jackalope friend~ Did this piece under mentorship of @abigbat.bsky.social ! It was a load of fun and I leveled up my skills >:) -- #art #oc

Digital art of a ranger and a giant jackalope equipped with a saddle and bags. The ranger is wearing a white cowboy hat, a red serape, and dusty mauve cowboy boots. She is down on one knee, examining a broken feather as she looks off in the direction of her quarry. It is midday - the colours are vivid and warm, conveying the heat and aridness.

My first completed illustration of the year is a follow up to one of my most popular illustrations (linked below). This new one is titled "Fealty." 😁

We peer through ornate curtains at a king kneeling before a man in armor who stands before him. The king gazes up at the knight and is in the process of shrugging out of his ornate robes, which trail behind him. The knight cradles the king's face in one hand, and the king has a hand on the knight's armored leg.

✨ Show me how you draw men ✨ uh. beefy, vulnerable and/or yearning, apparently! 😅

A large ocean wave is about to overtake a bedraggled man in a weathered rowboat. He looks distressed about this, knowing he's not going to be able to get clear of the wave in time.

A mermaid possessively embraces a man she's pulled under water in a pond; he doesn't appear to be struggling against her very much.

A man in a cloak and tabard sits on rock by the ocean, looking longingly out in the distance as waves crash around him.

so I watched the latest Starkid musical, Cinderella's Castle!! had to draw a ton of fanart for it because it had this major 90s-animated-fantasy-movie-don-bluth-nightmare-fuel vibe which I had to do my best to capture you can watch it this halloween week btw!! 🎃

illustrations from the Starkid musical stageplay, Cinderella's Castle. Ella, the titular character, a young black girl with a shabby green and beige dress, caked in ash and dirt. She sings like a disney princess, of course

illustrations from the Starkid musical stageplay, Cinderella's Castle. Ella's friends, a walking, talking toad knight in shining copper armour, made from the pots and pans she was told to cook him in, and his little squire- a tiny house mouse with a scrap of red fabric as a cape

illustrations from the Starkid musical stageplay, Cinderella's Castle. Ella's evil stepmother, a troll that wears the cobbled-together stolen skins of fair maidens to look like one, has a full figured purple outfit and a bright red "bob" haircut with a white streak, garrish makeup and red painted "claws". Ella holds a mirror up while she admires her true reflection, that of a gross troll monster.

illustrations from the Starkid musical stageplay, Cinderella's Castle. The charismatic tricky narrator of the story, a wandering bard character somewhere between Peter Pan and Jareth from the Labyrinth, with wild hair and a chizeled jaw and an extremely open shirt lol

Time for another reference dump! This zip file contains 2,566 photos (6.58 GB) from the Metropolitan Museum of Art arms and armor collection. I tried to focus on the types of details you don't see in most available reference, like hinges and fasteners. Enjoy! drive.google.com/file/d/1emF3...

A shot of an eggplant-shaped samurai helmet sitting on a wooden stand in a museum display case. It's made of darkened metal and has gold trim and accents.

A closeup shot of some buttons, fasteners, and ties on a small section of a samurai armor set's front chest plate. There are various ornate patterns, complex knots, and overlapping pieces.

A closeup shot of the thumb and forefinger of a European steel gauntlet inlaid with gold. It has bronze rivets and a white leather glove under the overlapping finger armor pieces.

A closeup shot of an extremely ornate double barreled shotgun's firing mechanism and trigger. The hammers are shaped like squirrels holding nuts and there is floral filigree everywhere.

Post your most popular art from Twitter ✨ This piece, by a mile. 😅

A king and knight, who both clearly yearn for each other, have found a private moment together. Both are in full regalia and armor, as though they'd only been able to step away for this one brief moment. The king leans in to kiss the knight, and the knight draws him closer despite making a half-hearted attempt to keep up the appearance of being on duty.

Hiya! I do a lot of colourful bright neon coloured animals and fanart.

Digital Art - a harpy eagle painted using the colours of the bi flag (pink, purple, blue). The background is black with blue highlights. A triangle with the bi colours as a gradient sits behind it

Digital art - Fanart from Critical Role. A beach by a city, with two people, Caleb and Veth, a man and a halfling, sit and watch the sunrise. The light in the clouds looks like a distant flame.

digital painting of two barn owls on a stump. one has blue and purple feathers with a purple and pink glow reminiscent of a galaxy. the other has a bright green glow and blue and orange wings. they are against a black and blue background.

Digital art: Cerrit from Exandria Unlimited: Calamity. He looks determined as he raises one of his tomahawks, ready for action. He is backlight by a bright blue light and there's a fine gold circle around his head with lines extending out, like a stylised sun. In the background is the darkened city of Avalir.
