Can't show the painting yet but hot damn this color is great. Even mixes nicely with quinacridone red.

I have canceled my Hartford appearance. Sorry to those hoping to see me there. After Baltimore, it was looking like too much of a gamble and things weren't trending in a good direction. So it may be May before I do more SCG events.

I'm an official D&D/MTG illustrator working on a game that's p much a love letter to everything I like about RPGs. and more: it's pay-what-you-like. get OMIOS URES for free if you want, I don't care. spread the word, play the game once with your group and I guarantee they will want a campaign. :)
page of OMIOS URES. digital painting over graphite sketch of a chameleon hunter with a hand cannon. his prehensile tail is holding a torch behind him, and various items are strapped to his body. a bandolier with potions, a large bag with a bear trap sticking out, a fairy in a cage hanging from a rod. waterskin, pocket watch, sleeping bag, retro aviator-like goggles on his forehead. he walks hunched, as if sneaking about, and his delicate gait - exactly like a chameleon's - is a visual play, resembling the tippy toe walk of a cartoonish hunter

Got some work so calling this warrior token done. Been meaning to paint an otyugh before now. In 2018 I did an ink drawing fan art of Nicholas Eames' Bloody Rose and always liked the pose/attitude of the piece so this was a chance to revisit that (altho no longer fan art).

a black and white illustration of a woman with long wavy hair draped over her shoulders seated on some mossy rocks in a dark forest. she is leaning on one knee and has her other armed draped over the hilt of her well worn longsword.A black and white illustration of sunset over a vista of wheat fields that go off into the mountainous horizon, and are bordered by distant forests. Scattered throughout the fields are a half dozen bonfires where dark plumes of smoke rise into the darkening sky. Tall robed figures carry wood from the forests to the bonfires to keep them lit. In the foreground you can see that skeletons lie beneath the lush fronds of wheat.A color cover illustration for the Little Wolves TTRPG with muted purples, blues, greens, yellows, and reds, with black line art. The title logo is done in a yellow stylized blackletter ambigram style that reads the same upside down and right-side up. The logo sits in front of a large red moon. The main focal point of the composition is a young werewolf with glowing eyes, running along with two wolves behind them. The werewolf is tangled in the vines emerging from the silhouetted trees that frame the composition. Along the edges of that frame, in four circular vignettes created by the branches and vines, there are cameos of the four queens of the game: the witch queen, the troll queen, the pumpkin queen, and the mermaid queen. A banner along the bottom of the cover reads “A realm of folk and fae from Dinoberry Press"a black and white illustration of a creek in a dark forest where a pine tree has e fallen and cast a shadow over the creek. in the distance there is a group of naked people having sex. there are inset comic panels that feature in sequence: someone eating pussy, someone licking another person’s armpit, a fledgling downy woodpecker in a pine tree, someone pulling someone’s hair from behind, someone licking a woman’s dick, and a frog on a rock in the creek.

I'm (slowly) building my own world!
Collage of two digital paintings.

image on the left: Digital painting of a man called The Wanderer. His hair is short and white, with a teal green streak on the left bang, he has brown skin, and his brows and goatee are white. His left eye is also icy white, he has pointy ears, and he is wearing a feather shaped earring.

He is wearing a hooded open vest, showing his bare chest, two elbow length gloves with both hands out. He has a sling bang and an obsidian black sword in a sheath hanging from his belt.

His loin-cloth is teal colored and has a fish-tail shaped train on the back. Underneath is a pair of blue pants, and he is wearing a pair of cream colored boots with white and teal parts.

His expression is serious and determined.

The background is a vibrant blue sky with clouds on the horizon, and the ground he's standing on is a shoreline with the water directly mirroring the sky.

Image on the right: Digital painting scene of an aquatic humanoid warrior, perhaps leading a battalion of other merfolk and aquatic warriors into an attack on land. 

The warrior general has thick, scaly silver skin, adorned in gold armor and plating, and he's wielding a giant golden axe with an odd shape. He's standing on an elevated rocky platform covered in moss, with three aquatic creatures surveying the attack alongside him.

The creatures in the foreground have humanoid bodies, but heads of fish and merfolk. The same species of creatures can be seen rallying in the background. Lastly, there is a giant serpent towering the scene in the far back, it is pale in color, and it seems like it has a man-made golden structure attached to its face, like a helmet of sorts.Digital painting of a merfolk-monster mutant. The merman is mostly humanoid; with human legs and barely any aquatic features, but on the nape of his neck is a fleshy appendage, that tethers him to the spine of a giant, mutated anglerfish, as if he's the lure and bait instead of a faintly glowing appendage.

The merfolk is floating above the large and open jaws of the anglerfish.Digital painting of a giant ominous man, sitting cross legged, levitating in the sky, surrounding by flying giant oarfish, overlooking structures and buildings. 

The man is a merfolk; mostly humanoid, but with a giant oarfish tail that he's sitting on. He's dressed in a religious tunic, with a red band resting over his shoulders, a helmet fashioned to look like an oarfish head, and he is holding a horn closely, as if he's about to blow it. The his sclera are bloodshot.

Around him are dozens of giant oarfish, rising from the sea and floating mid-ar. Beneath them are deserted buildings, homes and infrastructures.Digital painting of Patsu.X's KaiJune entries. It's a layout showcasing all 11 creature designs of the series so far.
