Had inspiration for a rough sketch. Markus, but in WoW Forever as a paladin. He's very sane and well adjusted, certainly is! Armor was very much inspired by the Inquisition aesthetic in 40k lmao, it's still got its hooks in me. #OCArt #UndeadPaladin #WoWForever

I ended up stripping and completely redoing my Way Seeker, and I am much happier with the result. It's not perfect, the helmet is still bugging me, but I think this is the limit of my current skill. #MiniPainting #Warhammer40k #Aeldari #Eldar #Corsairs

I figured out a way to make his eyes look like they glow instead of fighting with directly painting pupils, I'd say it worked well!

I'm having a much easier time painting minis, I should share! Not quite done, I still need to do highlights and make another touch-up pass before I add some details. I really did not pick an easy first mini 😂 so many PURITY SEALS. #Warhammer40k #minipainting #GreyKnights

My brain is being a bit ornery about fully realized art pieces, so I started working out Markus's implant ports and tattoos. I considered doing a bunch of scarification of scripture and holy symbols, but then realized... I don't wanna draw all'a that lmao. #Warhammer40k #psyker #Darktide

I got an essential oil spray from my local witchcraft shop that's SUPPOSED to be used to protect taxidermy... but I spray it on my clothes nearly as often because I love the strong, spicy tobacco scent. Brand name is "For Strange Women," but I mean... Taxidermy spray doesn't seem gendered to me LOL

Caas's original demon soul was a Felstalker that mutated into a Charhound while bound to them. The bindings became unstable and a Dreadlord pushed them to the limit. In desperation, they agreed to a ritual conducted by a very skilled warlock, who stabilized them by patching in an Inquisitor soul.

A photoshopped cutout of Caas, my demon hunter from World of Warcraft. He has red scales and rugged armor of gold, black, and crimson. He's wielding a pair of fel green axes. His feet are clawed and he has a scaly red tail with a bristling tip of spikes (using spare parts from a red dracthyr)

A digital illustration of Vantablack, my elf street samurai from Shadowrun. He has white hair, lavender skin, and violet cyber-eyes with black sclera. Black dermal plates cover his chin, jaw, neck, triceps, forearms, and shins. He has top surgery scars all along the bottom of his pectorals, which meet in the center at his sternum. He is wearing black shorts. His left arm is covered in a tattoo sleeve of a snake and chrysanthemum flowers. His left pectoral and side is covered in a tattoo of a red phoenix that gradually becomes pink and blue. underneath black shorts, he has a tattoo of an orange tiger climbing a mountain on his left thigh. Where the tattoos are covered by the dermal plates, he has colored LED lights continuing the design.

Rillian's magitech armor is FINISHED. This was my first time using the dress-up/paper doll layering technique for armor/outfit design, and it was SO helpful. I plan to turn these into a refsheet in the near future, probably with a back view too. #DigitalArt #OCArt #Warcraft #ElfEnjoyers

A digital illustration reference of Rillian, my dark ranger from World of Warcraft. He is wearing black and silver shorts to show his physique and scars. He has grayish skin, long blue-black hair that's shaved on the sides, a dark chinstrap beard, red eyes, and charred markings on his hands, forearms, feet, neck, sternum, and around his eyes. He has an autopsy scar along his sternum, collarbones, and abdomen, an X-shaped slashing scar on his right side, and two gunshot wound scars on his chest and midriff. Glowing red veins are visible beneath his skin in places, and a red glow inside his chest is visible around his sternum. His right ear is charred and melted down to roughly half its natural length.

A digital illustration of Rillian in the bodysleeve layer of his magitech armor. The sleeve is black, and glowing blue lines of magitech circuitry approximately follow the shape of his musculature.

I keep wanting to fuss with his color palette. He's supposed to be very gray in color (almost like dark elves in Elder Scrolls), with blue-black hair, but I also kind of like the tanned tone with dark blue hair that some artists I've commissioned have done. Anyway, another day, another WIP.

I decided to wait until he had something resembling a shirt before posting a WIP 🤣 I realized I actually liked the black, white, and silver aesthetic of his in-game appearance, so I've already started re-designing his techsuit. Which may turn into redoing his refsheet. I swear I'm not a masochist.
