Fall is (finally) coming! Just a few rough WIPs for a personal piece. Knight of Autumn? Herald of Mabon? Hopefully soon to be finished :D

Character bust sketches I did last year for a sci-fi TTRPG project that unfortunately never came to be. It was fun to delve outside of fantasy for once :D

I don't draw sci-fi stuff as much as I would love to. Here is a dragonkin (very) heavy shooter from the Starfinder universe, plus some color tests.

Aerotitan sudamericanus: a new portrait of the Patagonian azhdarchid pterosaur. Aerotitan is known only from a very fragmentary fossil of a partial rostrum, so this depiction is largely speculative… but was fun to do. #SciArt
A portrait of Aerotitan, a prehistoric flying reptile with an estimated 5 metre wingspan. The head and neck portrait show is it with mostly dark grey skin, with a bright orange crest and throat pouch, and very long, pointed beak. It is shown against an out of focus background of sparking water and lush foliage, with countless tiny insects swirling in the air.

I've always liked the old king archetype (I should probably blame From Software for that), so here's a crimson-armoured old man. He likely has a sad backstory.

I was told I could have become anything in life, so I decided to become a poster boy! Given that I’m devouring an obscene amount of Warhammer 40k lore, I’m obviously at that stage where I HAVE to pick a side 🤣 FOR THE EMPEROR! (For now 😏)

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.

Hey #PortfolioDay! I'm Jasper, a fantasy illustrator from Aotearoa. I'm available for work from June and I'm looking for projects in the TCG and bookish space. 📨 jasp@jaspermillerart.com 🎨 jaspermillerart.com
Illustration of a drow standing in front of a large white snake with wings. The drow has long white hair and dark green clothing with copper accents. He holds a dagger above his head with blue magic arcing between the blade and his hand. They are in the Underdark, with blue spores and mushrooms surrounding them.Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. The angle is low, looking up. The sky is dominated by a cloud lit by golden hour, and there are cherry blossom trees sending petals through the piece. From left: Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff); Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape);  Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword);  Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in two hands).Illustration of Ivy (pale woman with red hair) and Lucanis (man with olive skin, black hair and beard). She sits on horseback (the horse is kinda messed up and looks undead) bidding him a sad farewell. Spite's wings enlclose her. In the background are the ruins of Weisshaupt.Two images side by side.

First: A stylised illustration of my Rook, Dawes Mercar (short dark hair, green eyes, thick brows, olive skin). He stands with on arm crossed in front of his face, obscuring his mouth, and holds a white silhouette of Solas's dagger. In the background is a Shadow Dragon mural of diamond design in teal, with red chains crossing over. A mural of a dragon emerges from it, passing in front of Rook.

Second: A stylised illustration depicting Taash from Veilguard (qunari, muscled, one green-glass horn, white hair ina braid) and Qatesh (shorter qunari, nude from the waist up showing scars, black hair pulled back in a bun). A golden staff rests in front of Qatesh and she is winding white energy from it. Taash rests their cheek on Qatesh's horn, one hand on the crook of her neck.

Hey everyone! Today I’d like to show you the double-page spread I’ve created for the new Disciples of Tzeentch battletome in Age of Sigmar 4th Edition. For the first time, I had to deal with architecture and perspective across most of the image, rather than simply as background elements 1/2
