Chief Arbalister Fjorna Daro. An illustration for Relinquished Realms (Book 3 of the Noss Saga). I cropped out the spoilery bits and will reveal the full image sometime after B3 is out. If you've read Wolf of Withervale, does this kinda match how you pictured her?

Portrait of a warrior with silver-blonde hair draping over her leather-armored shoulders. Her face is a battleground of badly mended scars, her left eye sagging lower in the shattered orbit. She looks determined and powerful. The stock of a delicately carved crossbow can be seen hanging behind her.

And here are some photos of the finished #bronze #sculpture of “King of Inlé, which weighs around 50 lbs with its granite base attached. #WatershipDown #fantasyart

Photo of bronze Black Rabbit of Inlé sculpture with finished patina, right side view. The Black Rabbit has counter-shaded coloration, with his dorsal surfaces black, and his ventral surfaces grayish. He has dark red eyes with no pupils. The small rabbit is a deep bronze. The cliff the Black Rabbit is crouched on is a mixture of browns, greens, and ochres.

Detail shot of the Black Rabbit’s head and large, long ears, which are pointed at the very tips and curl slightly inward. A waning crescent moon shape marks his forehead, and there are spiral shapes on each of his pinnae.

"Petroglyphs" An illustration I did for Masks of the Miscam, Book 2 of the Noss Saga. I unadvisedly chose a line hatching style that fully embraces carpal tunnel.

An old man wearing scant but colorful robes holds up an ammonite-decorated cane to cast a shadow on a wall covered in cryptic petroglyphs. He is holding a lamp with a green flame and is facing toward the wall, looking frail and ancient, his long gray hair and beard draping. The eighteen glyphs on the wall are arranged in a hexagonal pattern. There are runes all across the rocks of the dark cavern.

Really cool seeing these come together. Focusing mostly on commissions owed this week, but I want to try making 3 more cards.

Ace of swords. Illustration of a wolf growing and a sword between its mouth. On the sword is a crown with olive branches. Red vines weave throughout.

Two of swords. Two sword obscure a wolfs face. Red vines weaving throughout

Three of swords. Three swords and a wolf looking at the viewer. Red vines are densely tangled, obscuring the wolf.

Four of swords. A wolf sleeps above a sword, and three swords hover above the wolfs head. The red vines are loosely weaving between them. There is a black crescent moon to the top right of the illustration.

New piece! I struggled with this one a lot back when I started it a year or two ago, but it finally came together nice and easy when I went back and took a second look at it. 😊

A minotaur with a sword sunk in his chest and several cuts on his body, but from each cut flowers and flower petals flow instead of blood. His face looks sad and pleading, and he raises a hand as if to fend off an attacker.

This was one of those quotes that had me sitting back and going whoa. Both because the book had me thinking a lot about my own personas(“masks”) and names and how they show who I am as well as me going oh my god as i thought of a certain character and his experience/remarks about the mask he wears

A watercolor painting of Ferdinand the bull. He sits in a field of daisies under a leafy tree. The sky is blue with a large idyllic cloud. Two chonky bumblebees drift around behind him. He is content and happy looking. On the left side of his shoulder a small series of scars can be seen if you look close, showing that he has been through some shit - but he's OK now and very happy.

these precious kittens

An anthropomorphic caracal tenderly embraces the thick head of a giant smilodon. The caracal has orange and cream fur and is wearing a leather kilt. He is smiling, eyes closed. The smilodon has smoky red fur and seems deadly yet friendly. A lush forest envelops them, filled with lianas, ferns, and giant leaves.

Tutorial time! 😻 1. Found cute photo and sketched teef 2. Got half naked and hugged big cat with tweaked proportions. 3. Photobashed a forest because leaves are hard! Added basic colors but still with flat lighting. 4. Drew all the damn leaves and more, then did my lighting pass and overlays.

Photo of a lioness and her cub with a crude sketch of a person hugging her muzzle (she's even taller than the person). Smilodon teeth also roughly sketched in.

Modified version of the lioness photo with changed proportions and added back legs with a short smilodon tail, and also added a photo of myself wearing only shorts posing with the giant felid, heads tapping.

Full sketch in color using of the smilodon and anthropomorphic caracal in a rainforest, using the photobash as a reference and to trace over. Now they are in a forest of cheapy stock photo plants badly photoshopped together.

Final image. An anthropomorphic caracal tenderly embraces the thick head of a giant smilodon. The caracal has orange and cream fur and is wearing a leather kilt. He is smiling, eyes closed. The smilodon has smoky red fur and seems deadly yet friendly. A lush forest envelops them, filled with lianas, ferns, and giant leaves. A gnarly tree curves around the figures on the right side. There is another felid hiding among the vegetation.

Wolf of Withervale cosplay thread! I'll add new ones once a day. Photos taken by my husband, @dahlumii.bsky.social, during our end-of-year roadtrip through New Mexico, Utah, and Nevada.

Cosplaying as Lago Vaari from Wolf of Withervale, wearing the black canid mask, a blue wool tunic, a leather belt, dark pants, and blue nail polish. All photos in this thread share that same description, so to avoid overdoing the ALT texts, I'll only describe the location and poses in the rest of the photos. Bright setting—walking toward camera like a supermodel in a snowy, aspen forest.

Wide shot, standing on a sandstone formation. It's all fiery-red rocks, all around, a fully alien landscape with no sky and no plants.

Jumping in a field of sagebrush, gray cape flowing dynamically, with a sandstone butte rising in the background under a darkened sky.

Sitting thousands of feet up at the edge of an elevated mesa, fingers interlaced, nails painted blue. The very distant background shows a sunset over a landscape of rusty buttes, mesas, and spires.
