“Obsidian Peaks”, an 18”x24” oil painting showing a dark foreboding sky and black-blue mountains. A brief opening in the clouds shows the blue sky above, shining down on a valley teeming with forests.

18”x24” oil painting of a graveyard in autumn among a hilly landscape. The sky has yellows, reds, oranges and purples of sunset. A pumpkin sits against a large, bare tree, with gravestones dotting the landscape and into the distance. Grey fog creeps along parts of the ground.

Thanks for sharing! I make oil paintings of natural & fantasy landscapes #art #tradart #oilpainting perceptivepumpkin.com/gallery/ shiftypumpkin.etsy.com ko-fi.com/shiftypumpkin twitch.tv/shiftypumpkin

“Orange Nebula”, an 8”x10” oil painting of a dark, night sky with nebula patterns in different shades of orange and red.

“Stairs to the Sky”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a windy, winter landscape, inspired by Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. A frosty blue sky looking over cloudy, windswept mountains, while old rock stairs, buried in snow, lead upward to the summit. A stone cairn with a billowing, ragged cloth marks the path.

“Misty Woods”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a dark, closed-in forest with breaks of sunlight and fog. Streaks of light shine through the dense canopy as a small, hidden feline watches the surroundings from a safe enclosure.

“Night Wave”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a sea at night. A large wave crashes into tall rocks along the sandy brown shore, as the moon trickles shafts of light below the clouds.

I'll start! ✨ Hi, I'm Lourdes, a Brazilian illustrator inspired by folklore, mysticism, horror and fantasy. I create illustrations for RPGs, card games, books and personal projects. 🖤 lourdessaraiva.artstation.com

Title: Retribution

The painting depicts the goddess Nemesis as an embodiment of punitive justice. There is a female figure suspended in the air, with her arms outstretched, holding a sword in one hand and an hourglass in the other. Her hair is dark and windswept, and large golden wings extend behind her. She wears a light-colored tunic with flowing fabrics, against a misty sky in shades of blue, green and gold.

Fanart of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. There is a female figure with short, almost white blonde hair, golden tears streaming from her eyes and a serene expression. She wears a red outfit with a white lace collar. She holds a black cat with pale green eyes, surrounded by light-colored roses with thin streaks of blood staining their petals, foliage and thorny branches. The background features shades of blue and black, with golden thorn-covered branches forming a halo around her head.

Title: All Beauty Will Vanish

There is a female figure with dark brown hair styled in a voluminous bun, with loose strands framing her face. She wears a light white and pink outfit and holds a bouquet of flowers in shades of pink, lilac and white. The background features shades of brown, with a golden circular halo behind her head.

Title: "Pulled out my tongue, so I can't speak the truth.", referencing the lyrics of The Warden by Chelsea Wolfe.
The painting depicts a female figure with closed eyes, long light-colored hair in shades of white and lilac, and two dark, curved horns. Surrounding her head is a luminous radiance with branching forms, reminiscent of the radiant halos found in religious iconography. Blood tears stream from her eyes and blood runs from her lips down her chin. The background features shades of blue-gray and black, it makes a contrast with the luminosity of her hair and the radiance.

As much as the massive downgrade in pay and work flexibility has sucked since they laid me off, there's some small comfort in knowing I won't have to have some tech dork evangelizing this shit at me every single day (also damn that sucks, sorry you'll inevitably have to put up with that too)

Oh man, seems like there are so many classic/cult games from the 90s/00s tied up in licensing issues. CS is especially rough because it's SUCH a cool IP and there's a massive amount of potential with it. I remember finding collections of short stories online like 20 years ago that were so much fun.

You could argue that it's been the same game, only prettier, since AC5 in 2004. Sure. But it's barely been four mainline titles in 20 years, and *nobody else makes those.* (Project Wingman notwithstanding, which was a miracle, but can't compete on budget and therefore scope)

More than that, it oozes character from every pore. It makes you care about its world, about its *people.* Convicts, mercenaries, mechanics, princesses. It does so effortlessly.

It's Metal Gear Solid with planes (I refuse to believe that Tasha calling the player character "Ray", as the successor to "Rex", is a coincidence), and it's also Top Gun, Star Wars and Gundam, and it's made with love and attention to detail. You should see the dev diary dedicated solely to *clouds.*

That last point in particular is something nobody in the West does. All military flight sims went all-in on the idea of "dynamic campaigns" which, while extremely replayable, are also terminally drab. We miss Crimson Skies, X-Wing Alliance and Freespace 2, and that's what Ace Combat gives us back.

The hype is that there's no series other than Ace Combat that does this unique blend of great gameplay, gorgeous graphics, phenomenal soundtrack (Kobayashi, Watanabe et al. are gods) and high-melodrama storytelling.

CRIMSON SKIES YES. I've been saying for AGES that a new CS game with the same level of polish as AC with that awesome alt-1930s pulpy adventure style would be incredible.

When the 205live boys had to sneak out to meet Pac, we just wanted to see our friend again. Our fearless leader.

Pac wanted to meet us for something else. He told us that he wanted to apologize for leaving. That he felt he left us hanging. We had to assure him that we all supported him and him fighting the machine. Despite everything he was going through, he was thinking of us.

As we said our goodbyes, Pac pulled me aside and said “Don’t let the rat bastards pull you down, bubba.”
