too busy with client work (which I'm very thankful for!) to post much art, but I've found the energy to work on this Marshcrawla during the evenings #warhammer #paintingwarhammer

An illustration of a goliath hunter on his mount in snowy mountain terrain, facing off against a crag cat.  The Goliath is a young man, dressed in brown and white furs, accented with red and blue woven panels. He wields a red horsebow.  His mount is a mixture of a reindeer and a markhor goat. His tack and gear matches the colors and motifs of his rider. He is mid leap.  In the foreground, a white sabertoothed cat pursues the pair.  In the background are snowy peaks and Giant ruins.A cleric astride a flying broom raises a glowing sword above a battle field. Golden, rays of bright light stream out from the sword. Her party members and herself are wrapped in golden glowing flowers and vines. They stare up at her in awe. 

The party members, counter clockwise from the top left are: A dwarven artificer wearing jeweltones and riding a magic carpet, the cleric wearing a gold breastplate and blue robes; a giant fighter in full adamantine plate and a dragon helm; a half-drow Psi-fighter in blues and purples, floating mid-air and holding her crossbow; and a tiefling ranger, arms stretched out in joy and relief.

Behind the party members is a truly gargantuan giant, you can see him only up to his knees. He wears silver greaves and you can catch a glimpse of his great axe.

Ruins of a city are in the distant background.A hammerhead shark-based mermaid swinging a glowing pink sword in the dark depth of the sea.  her upper half is a red-skinned tiefling with large halo-esque horns.  She wears large, circular, purple sunglasses.  In the darkness beyond are a couple of swimming hammerhead sharks.A man and a woman ride their mounts towards the camera side by side.  They reach out to each other to hold hands. Joy fills their faces.

The man is a Goliath a long fur lined vest (no shirt underneath), riding a reindeer-esque mount.  The woman is a curly-haired human wearing a loose western inspired smock-shirt tucked into tight riding pants with fringe at the hips. She rides a draft horse.

a horsey for the Year of the Horsey
A drawing in three panels - on the left, a view from a window towards an island. There is a lit candle in the window. In the middle, a person on a horse is holding a shooting star on a long stick, around them are clouds and stars. On the right, a picture of a tower on a small island. The moon is visible overhead, and there is a light in one of the tower's windows.
