Wrapped up a Daggerheart one-shot! Got to play Herriette, a Halfing Hedge Witch! She got wrecked, but the group made it through and can enjoy the celebrations she dressed up for! Thanks, @loremistress93.bsky.social for GMing! (Quick doodle done by me)

A woman halfing posing while holding a staff. Her brown and silver hair is in two thick braids that stick out on the sides of her head from under a green and gold witch hat. Her dress is in teal, green, purple and gold trimmed, with fluffy moss trimming her bodice, wearing tights with purple floral pattern on one leg and teal-green teardrop pattern on the other. A dark purple caplet with gold silk underneath is kept on by a small pony skull on her shoulder.

Illustrated a new player character for an upcoming Draw Steel game! Can you tell what class they are? 😅 #TTRPG #CharacterArt #TTRPGArt

An adult in a golden mask standing with right hand flourished up and left casually reaching out. Long hair of dark blues and purples and dusty lavender skin. Wearing clothes of varying patterns and textures in blues, purples, reds and pinks with gold trimmings and brown leather, styled like a Venetian jester. Name written beside them reads, "Aurea."

And this moment also happened in last night's game, so I can now share it with the speech bubbles! It didn't happen exactly as written, and it did get more in-depth, but close enough. #TTRPGArt #Sentai&Sensibility #SupportArtists

A comic book spread of a dark-haired man and a red-haired woman waking up in bed. The panels show the woman snuggling up to the man, with him smiling. However, the woman is sad, and the man shows concern when he realizes it.
The conversation:
Beatrice sniffles, then says, "I'm sorry... I won't do it."
"Oh, love," Robyn responds. "You have my support—"
"I know," Beatrice whispers.
"So why change your mind?"
"I read your letter, and if felt like you were... Saying goodbye without saying it."
"Bea, I didn't—"
"I don't want to say goodbye."
"...I know," Robyn whispers.

Last night in our Magical Sentai game, Beatrice disguised herself as a gentleman, Mr. Felix Llewellyn-Wyrd! A "cousin" of Beatrice. With some magic to subtly change her features, it seems to be working! Illustration by me. #TTRPGArt #illustration #characterart

An illustration of a young man with long, ginger hair, wearing a deep black-green 3-piece suit with a cane. A coloured full-body illustration, a sketch from behind, and a portrait of him pulling on a glove with his teeth.

As a kid, I drew on whatever paper was available with whatever pencil/crayon/pen was available. For a time, I had a box of dot matrix printer paper from my mom's office to draw on.

It breaks me that one of my fav TTRPG character portrait sets I ever made was designed for commission examples, not for a real AP. 😭 I'd love to see this style out in the world~ #TTRPG #TTRPGArt #Commissions #OCArt

Four character portraits. Left to right, top to bottom: A woman with shaven hair wearing read eyeshadow and lipstick, dressed in gothic clothes: Seraphine, She/Her. An persn with shaggy, dark hair with silver strands and a single, glowing green eye, dressed in a stripped collar shirt and green vest: Cael, they/them. A man with pure white hair, and deep violet eyes, wearing a thick, high collar coat: Enver, he/him. A person with long hair, gradient from black to pink ends. Pinkish eyes with purple-lensed glasses, wearing a white blouse with pink tie: Ari, She/They.

It's a little thing, but had a cat visit the house today, and it made me so happy. I did not take a picture, so here is a poor sketch from memory. His name is Waffles. He is a cow, but is a good boi and working on it.

A rough sketch of a black and white cat in an orange harness. He is big and round with a little head, and tail up.

I've been working on some private commissions, so I haven't been sharing art as much. Here is a poster I designed a while ago with my PC, Beatrice. I designed it before some events in our game, so the imagery has become fortuitous.

A stylized poster of a curly-haired woman, first raised and confident, wearing a Greek-inspired Chiton, with woad paint markings on her arms and face. She has woad-coloured ribbon in her hair with a feathered wing. Poster is illustrated with copper leaf and black ink on a grey background. The border has elements of clouds, sun, stars, lily of the valley, and a sword and hourglass sand on the right and left sides of the poster. Text in a bottom box reads "Long May She Reign."

Continuing my trend of using my TTRPG PC Beatrice for some fun illustration practice/warm-up.

A white woman with long ginger hair standing with a serious expression. The moon is large in the background, backlighting her, with a shadow of deer-like horns made of thorns. The pupils of her eyes are giving a green-yellow glow like a night animal.

Words on the illustration read: The Moonlight glow reveals the truth. A shadowed crown of thorn and root. She sees beyond with eyes of night. Wild and focused until first light.

Catch us for our premier! Here's Bronwyn Hills. Blood Hunter, Order of the Ghost Slayer, bastard ward of the Silver Maiden. www.twitch.tv/zealzaddy #ttrpg #actualplay

A rough-looking, handsome woman. Dressed in reds, teals and browns. She has black hair tied back in a ponytail with a white streak. Her warm-toned white skin has a ghostly white, lightning-like scar that comes from under her collar and up the side of her left face. Her eyes are blood copper with a crescent of silver on the bottom. She holds a sword in her right hand, and her left glows with a ghostly pale teal mist. An emblem of the Silver Maiden Goddess hands around her neck.
Text reads: Bronwyn, Blood Hunter.

Since it's Sentai and Sensibility night over on Coziest Trauma Corner, here is the letter that Beatrice wrote from our live stream last week!

A burned-up letter pasted on a new sheet of paper.
Burnt portion reads:

A love, gentle and wild, of soft warmth and caring cold
Filled with whispers of enticing dreams and passionate wishes
For what bliss has been found that has lifted burdens and unlocked [burned portion].
Fear [burned] no purch[burned] For f—th i- heart.
(Remainder torn/burned off)

(The non-burned paper reads)
From ashes beauty waits. Under shadows, new strength grows ~ holding our hearts and claiming joy with revitalized souls.
Hope, bound to fates that we decide.
[For] with shared [heart] we brave the world.
Faith in love to ease what hurts from which we’ll find ourselves changed once more.

A warm-up illustration with Beatrice from my Sentai game. Keeping to a near complementary colour palette has been interesting to stick to. #illustration #TTRPGArt

A white woman with ginger hair in a light green dress with a dark green bodice is dancing with a shadowy, masc figure, surrounded by thick black mist.
Text reads: Swept up by shadows that desired her shine, yearned for her grace, and craved to have her eye.

In our Sentai game last night, we got to see Beatrice's Battlizer form from her High Priestess card for the first time. More wild and hound-like than the elegant, structured base form.

Beatrice's ranger looks. On the left: Dressed in late-regency, early Victorian military-inspired fashion of dark greens and brass. Has a Spencer jacket, a brass-coloured bodice, and a deep emerald-green skirt of feathers. Her ranger helmet has pointed ears and a longated shape.
On the right: The outfit's details are styled to look like fur. A breast plate and pauldrons with embossed fur. Wispy long sleeves, and a skirt made to look like long fur with a long train that looks like a hound's tail. Shin guards shaped to look like fur at knees and ankles, with the toes detailed to look like hound paws.

My GM wanted me to make art of the sad moment from last week's Sentai and Sensibility. So I took a break from my school work to illustrate. Beatrice invoking her husband to stay with her 😭 CW: Blood #TTRPG #TTRPGArt #Illustration

A pale woman with long ginger hair in a white and gold trimmed dress is holding a man in a black suit and gold tie with dark tanned skin and black hair. She holds his hand to her chest, and holds his head in her other hand as she kisses his forehead. Deep, lush greenery and glowy lily of the valley flowers bloom around them.

For those who joined us for our Sentai and Sensibility AP last night: here is Beatrice's Henshin from season 1 and her new look this season!

A regency-style black power ranger. All black outfit with copper trimmings. She has a long skirt with a wing pattern wrapping around, copper trim creating feathers on the shoulders of her full jacket, and copper bracers. The visor on the helmet has a swan silhouette design.

A dark green Power Ranger, dressed in regency-era, military-style clothes. She wears a layered green feather-like skirt over pants, and high boots with brass trimmings. A tight-fitted bodice with, coloured like brass patina. A military Spencer jacket in dark velvet green, a black-green silk ascot, and long black and brass gloves. Her shadow has a cat, and a design of a claymore sword next to her.

#ArtVsArtist2025 This year was a lot of drawing of my TTRPG PCs. Zatza from my Wildsea campaign has the most art I've ever done for a PC, potentially ever for an OC, and strengthened my comic art style. And a screenshot of one of the things in progress from school.

Eight various illustrations surrounding a portrait of a brown-haired, pale-skinned woman. Left to right:
A train conductor man having a cigarette.
A noir-themed, monochrom illustration of a serious woman dressed in black, holding up a cigarette.
A green moth person, floating through the air on a pale fog.
A Hades video game-inspired illustration of a golden-winged woman.
Photo portrait of GhostCandle.

Last year, I had the joy of trying out a different art style and made Tarot cards of my Sentai and Sensibility group. Our PCs used Tarot cards for their henshin, so the top row was our starter and the bottom row we earned.

A set of ten Tarot-themed illustrations done with mostly flat, saturated colours. In order from left to right:
The Fool - A blond-haired, pale-skinned man dressed in red and yellow, facing towards the sun.
The Magician - A pale man in a brown and purple cowboy outfit, smoking over a table with player cards and coin.
The Hanged Lady - A blond-haired, pale-skin woman in a yellow dress, hanging upside-down in a tree and playing a phantom piano.
The Moon - A black-haired, dark-skin man dressed in cream and purple floating in the ocean with the reflection of the moon.
Temperance - A red-haired, pale-skin woman in black and grey pouring water from a pewter pitcher into a basin.
Strength - The blond-haired man in a red vest sitting with a golden lion and mountains in the background.
The Emperor - A brown-haired man dressed in purple, smoking while sitting in a large thrown with an owl carved into it.
The Chariot - The blond hair woman against red drapes, holding up a conductor's baton with two white lions holding red ribbon.
The Lovers - The black man dressed in creams and gold, dancing with the blond woman under a willow tree.
The High Priestess - The red-haired woman in a grey dress, sitting with her legs in the water at night with a book and a sword. A black cat lies in a tree behind her.

I'm laughing at how I managed to get the same position for taking a photo of me as Nike, and just how different I look between session 1 and finale because of makeup and lighting.

A pale-skinned woman dressed as Nike; Gold costume wings, a golden laurel crown, and long dark brown hair. She has gold makeup and black paint marks.
