Ralph Horsley @ralphhorsley.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Battle Hymn - Composition studies I usually work up a line drawing, like on the left, then add shading using ink and white paint. This time I wanted to work in colour to better portray the flaming battlefield, so painted over that line work in acrylic paint. ©WotC. AD Mari Hall 0172

Ralph Horsley @ralphhorsley.bsky.social · 11/05/2026MagicCon Vegas was a great show. One of my best ever. Thanks to everyone who stopped by. I’d never been to Vegas before, and it was quite an experience. The hotels on the strip are huge, and quite bonkers. A canal and gondolas on the first floor (second floor to any Americans) - why not! 060
