Artists, show how you paint stars!

Digital painting of a male elf paladin. He is kneeling, a glowing sword in one hand and shield in the other. His hair is black with some white strands in the front. His armor is dark blue and looks like the night sky, details are golden, some glowing stones in it. Behind him is a stained glass with moon motifs and dark-blue walls with golden stars.

Book cover artists QRP with your book covers

Digital artwork, a book cover. Three characters standing in a forest, the light is golden as it's near sunset. The character in the front is a female paladin wearing simple armor, her hair is dark, her skin is light, she wears glasses, there is a sword in her hand, and glowing yellow butterflies around her. Behind her two male characters. One is a dark-skinned mage, his hair is dark and curly, he has three eyes, white raven flies near him. The other is white haired elf with pale skin, he wears light armor with purple glowing stones in it.

A book cover. A male half-elf is sitting on the edge of a table and holding a glowing purple crystal. The room in the background is a study full of books and different objects.

Two book covers.
On the first one two women are standing next to each other. One is dressed in white dress with pink flowers in her blond hair, the other is dressed in black dress with some armor parts.
The second is an illustration of a female warrior, her appearance and armor are in Viking style. Her skin is pale, hair is blond. She has a sword in one hand and a white flower in the other. Some white flowers grow around her between rocks. There is smoke close to the ground. In the background there are mountains and gray clouded sky, some spots are in sunlight.

Digital painting, a book cover. A young man in a trek suit is running up the ladder in a dungeon, he is carrying a mimic. An ogre is chasing him, and a floating green scull is laughing at him.

It feels so great when someone commissions you a piece with your favorite character. I missed painting The Emperor so much, and really liked this Tav too 💜 Commission for Elsenova. #bg3fanart #baldursgate3

Commissioned digital painting, fan art of the game "Baldur's Gate 3". Female Tav who is half-transformed and The Emperor are standing next to each other on the Astral plane, like it was in the romance scene in the game, but there is still some distance between them.

"Inside" New personal piece.

Digital painting of a woman dressed in a black coat over the creme blouse and a black hat. She is not looking at the viewer, her face is covered with a transparent black lace veil. Under her coat there is a spot of darkness with a glowing red eye in the middle of her chest, and black hands with claws are forming from the darkness. Her hat and coat are slightly covered with something that looks like snow, but it's ash, some ash and sparks are flying around her.

Hello #portfolioday ! I'm Shade, a freelance artist who loves fantasy and sci-fi. ✉️shadeofstars@outlook.com Portfolio: shadeofstars.art

Digital artwork. It is a wedding scene, the bride and the groom are both dressed in white and gold, they are surrounded by knights in armor holding their swords above the couple to form an arch. There is a flower arch behind them and flower petals are flying in the air.

Two book covers.
The first one. A young man in a trek suit is running up the ladder in a dungeon, he is carrying a mimic. An ogre is chasing him, and a floating green scull is laughing at him.
The second is an illustration of a female warrior, her appearance and armor are in Viking style. Her skin is pale, hair is blond. She has a sword in one hand and a white flower in the other. Some white flowers grow around her between rocks. There is smoke close to the ground. In the background there are mountains and gray clouded sky, some spots are in sunlight.

Digital illustration of two characters, they stand in the dark forest. A woman in a long white dress with long dark hair touches the face of the paladin who looks like he is an undead, to cast a spell - an illusion that he is human. Golden magic flows between the paladin and the book in the woman's hand.

Two illustrations.
the first is a digital painting of Varellus from the game Space Marine 2. Varellus is standing on the fiery battlefield, there is a dreadnought and Ultramarine banners behind him.
The second is a fan art of the game "The Talos Principle". Characters in the artwork are robots Athena and Miranda and a ghost of Alexandra Drennan.

I had such a great time exhibiting at MegaCon Live (my first con of the year) and I loved my minimalistic table setup! But the con flu afterwards is a struggle. 🤧 I’m trying to recover asap because I’m doing an event in Manchester this weekend. (The artists are named in the comments!)

A table with a purple tablecloth and a white tablecloth showing the text “C. K. Andersson Fantasy Author” in black with a black cat sitting atop one of the letters. On the table there are art prints and books displayed and a row of purple stone LED lights. There is also a yellow medieval looking envelope sealed with red wax on the table.

Little drawings of sea creatures 🦑 I wanted to explore watercolor + colored pencils technique, but after the 1st one (the turtle) I switched to watercolor pencils instead of watercolor for the base layer and I like it more.

‪Hello #portfolioday ! I'm Shade, a freelance artist who loves fantasy and sci-fi. I do book covers, illustrations and character art. ✉️shadeofstars@outlook.com cara.app/shadeofstars

Digital artwork, fanart of a game "The Talos Principle 2". A robot of red and white colors named Byron is suffering from some kind of malfunction while touching a computer panel. He is on his knees, not able to free his hand. In the distance another robot named 1K is rushing to help, but he is too late. They seem to be inside of a huge artificial structure, but the floor is filled with water, Byron and the computer panel are located on an island of rocks with some pine trees and plants.

Digital illustration. It's autumn, the day is gray, the leaves on trees and on the ground are golden yellow. A young woman sits under the tree at the edge of a forest and casts a spell - glowing golden magic around her, it's an illusion of a lot of things and characters, she seems to tell a story. Near her is a black horse that looks at the magic in awe. A cat sneaks behind the tree and looks at them too. Far in the background is a small town with colorful houses and some colorful fields near it, some light shines through clouds and lightens the town.

Digital artwork, fanart of the game "Baldur's Gate 3". Illustration of two mind flayers walking and holding tentacles instead of holding hands. The mood is calm and romantic.
