Dwarf Fortress co-creator Tarn Adams says he has no need for GenAI, because his artists are bursting with cool, weird ideas like meat biomes and sphincter doors. "[Tolkien] didn’t have a sphincter door. I mean, I don’t think he did… Who knows what’s going on in, like, Minas Morgul though."

I always wanted to do one of these space nebula pieces and our game required a key visual and main menu artwork. Spread over many months I drew grasping arms of nebula, shining stars and the titular moons that shape the setting of this game. Enjoy :) #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

Character Class Portraits from "Das Schwarze Auge" known as "Realms of Arkania" in the US (1992-1996). There's just something inherently German about these grounded designs. I also find the depiction of both genders together endearing.

I had a dream about falling into a bush in a foggy field, and in it lived a massive red rattlesnake; I dreamed that she both bit me and spared me at the same time

Digital painting of a bush in dark blue-green tones with a ruddy rattlesnake curled in its branches; she has glowing red eyes and the white symbol of a hand over her head

a horrid beast. a rancid, screaming infant.

a medieval woodcut style illustration of a stacked city made of walls and limbs and fire - capped with a screaming misshapen eagle-like bird. the eagle’s mouth is open and its gullet is crammed with coins. its tongue is a furling striped flag. the eagle holds bunches of arrows in both of its outstretched hands. hands reach through the doors and arches of the stacked city. the hands grab at buildings and walls and claw at mounds of coins at the city’s base.

the text reads: ‘A horrid beast. a rancid, screaming infant. it knows naught but blood and hunger. it will choke on its own grasping fingers.’

#PortfolioDay ! I'm a traditional illustrator who's worked for a number of small press fantasy publications and TTRPG projects. I recently self-published a graphic novel featuring a kaiju in a sword-and-sorcery setting.

A necromancer armed with a sword and a spell descends the steps of a castle, surrounded by her skeleton guards.

A four-armed giant stands waist-deep in the ocean, face obscured by a green hooded cloak, holding a staff covered in bones and pulling a star out of the night sky.

Two adventurers, an elf and a dwarf, traverse the ruins of an ancient underground city while a shoggoth lurks on the cavern roof above.

Cover of the graphic novel GARGANTUAN, displaying the title and the protagonist, Queen Pharseia, standing amidst scattered, abandoned armaments and looking up defiantly as the shadow of a huge monster looms over her.
