Here come the cats Run, little rat [ #FFXIV | #FF14 | #Lalafell | #OCsky 🎨]

Yuyuka, a horned lalafell unwilling retrofitted with a regulator, stares at the viewer with murderous intent despite her hands being tied behind her head. Blood drips down from her nose.

OUUUUGHHH THEM. I love our rodents who had lived rent-free in our brains for 5 years. Bex this is stunning; I'm really proud of you for trying something outside of your comfort zone for this one! You did a stellar job for your first attempt at not just one but THREE comic pages!!! 💞

The Summit of Mt. Gulg (CW suicide) Been rotating this comic in my mind for years and my Patreon supporters voted to make it happen! Here's how Mt Gulg went in the #Brambleverse, and a love letter to one of my favourite scenes in the game 🎨 #bexarttag #FFXIVart #FFXIVSpoilers #Shadowbringers

FFXIV comic showing my Warrior of Light, Roscoe, a lalafell with long dark hair and all-black armour, kneeling on the ground at the top of Mt Gulg. Emet-Selch says to him, "What a disappointment you turned out to be. I placed my faith in you. Let myself believe that you could contain the light. But look at you now... halfway to becoming a monster." He kneels down and uses a gun to lift Roscoe's chin, saying "You still retain your form and your senses... but you have all but become a sin eater." In the background, Yuyuka, a blonde lalafell with horns, looks on in horror.

Page 2 of the comic. The panels pan across images of the structures of Mt Gulg, the Crystal Exarch unconscious on the ground, Alphinaud and Thancred gritting their teeth, Alisaie and Y'shtola looking tense and horrified, and Yuyuka on the verge of tears. Emet-Selch continues, "Whether you will it or no, your mere existence will serve to engulf the world in Light. Those few left with the will to fight may rise up against you. But before your absolute might, they will quickly know despair. "There is no hope." "We are finished." "Mankind is finished!""

Roscoe puts a dagger to his own throat, saying, "No. I won't let that happen."

Page 3 of the comic. Roscoe slits his own throat, with red blood spraying across the panel. Yuyuka runs forward with a scream, tears pouring down her face. A close-up of Roscoe's eyes shows them slowly closing as Emet-Selch says "I shall look forward to seeing you bring the world to its knees... hero."

D&D party commission for Omar! ✨ This is the biggest commission I've done to date, and was an interesting challenge because each player also wanted their own character individually, so the poses need to work together and solo. Thank you so much for trusting me with them!! 🎨 #bexarttag #VGenComm

A group illustration of a D&D party on the deck of a ship. There is a winged red-skinned tiefling in a long coat with a gun; a human woman with an eyepatch and a left arm made of enchanted armour, wielding fire magic; a puppet-like creature in a long purple cloak with mechanical hands and three glowing eyes; a lion-like man with black fur wearing an open red shirt and loose trousers; a man with a goat-like skull for a face and black fur; a black-furred young tabaxi dressed in green wielding a bow and arrow; and a skeleton bard playing a lute which glows with spectral effects. In the background, floating in the sky, is a frog with dice around them, representing the DM.

Coloured sketch from the shoulders up of Yuyuka, a blonde-haired lalafell from FFXIV. She has horns with the right one broken, and is wearing a strapless green dress. There is a strong shadow across her eyes, and she looks at the viewer with a disgusted expression. A speech bubble next to her says "Pathetic."
