My newest #L5R fanart piece, featuring my OC Daidoji Tama felling a recently turned yobanjin zombie. Spent way longer on this than I intended, but such is it with drawing some times - still not super happy with it, but I do like Tama's pose and her overall flow here.

A digital art piece featuring two characters at night surrounded by fog, close to the path up distant mountains (and a distant third character that can be barely made out off to the right corner, on top of one of the mountains). The moon is full on this particular night, and there are heavy clouds scattering the sky. The figure on the left is a man from the north, beyond Rokugan's borders (called a yobanjin) who unfortunately was raised as a zombie. He is also unfortunate in that he is struck by a a blade in this very moment, and about to perish from the damage, thus his astonished facial expression, and somewhat staggered pose. He wears simple clothing in orange-red hues with a yellow belt, a grey wolf's pelt over his shoulders and a damaged headband. The woman who just struck him has black hair, a determined expression, and wears a purple travel kimono with long sleeves, tuckered into darker hakama-type pants. One can also make out part of her belt, where her saya (scabbard) for her wakizashi can be partially seen - the wakizashi itself, however, is missing (it was lost some time before this scene). On her right hand, she sports a yellow-orange specially-made half-glove, partially to obscure the damage done to her hand (she has lost two fingers as part of her journey) and partially to make it easier to hold weapons with only three fingers. She wields a butterfly sword.

Jeg er, for å si det forsiktig, skeptisk til å bruke KI som «sparringspartner» når vi formidler kultur og meninger. Utdyper her: www.nrk.no/spillbrevet/...

nrk.no

Er vi i ferd med å prompte oss inn i et kulturelt ødeland?

KI inntar dataspillene og livene våre. Mens varselslampene blinker.

Carmine 🖤✨❤️ @carminedeville.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

It's my birthday!! Bsky tradition holds that I can ask for shares for my birthday! 🎉🎂 If you don't know me, I'm Carmine, a pinup artist and OC designer with a number of queer horror comics in the works. I'm best known around here for women's wrongs, noir ambiance, and rabid lesbianism.

OC, Carmen Romero
Digital artwork of a woman in lingerie and heels posed confidently in an antique upholstered armchair. In one black, clawed hand she loosely holds a cigarette holder and lit cigarette, which trails smoke across the top of the image, and her other hand is draped over the armrest. A Columbian rainbow boa curls up her arm and around her shoulders, and a second set of shadowy black arms pose eerily behind her. The image is lit with iconic film noir slats of light and shadow, and a large, theatrical black hat casts much of her face into darkness, except for one shining golden eye visible beneath the brim.

OC, Louisa de la Vega (belongs to @dapperdinobot)
Colored thighs-up digital sketch of a Hispanic woman dressed stylishly in all black with a dark purple belt and purple feathers on her hat. Her face, neck, and part of her chest is painted to resemble a skeleton, and her eyes burn red from the shadows beneath the hat's wide brim. She poses against a grey background with a smoking pistol in each clawed black hand. Wisps of smoke and shadows swirl around her.

OC, Victoria Sweet
Digital artwork in gold, pink, and red of a monstrous dark-haired woman with horns, claws, and partially skeletal bat-like wings kneeling in a pinup pose in a pool of blood. She holds one hand delicately beside her mouth and leans on a human skull with the other while grinning mischievously at the viewer. A tail comprised of vertebrae and ending in fleshy, toothy petals coils around her. Behind her is a simple golden frame and ring of gold which frame her head like a halo.

OCs, Anja and Mar
Digital artwork of two nude women having an intimate moment on a dark background. The pink-haired woman on the left sits leaning back on her palms, head tilted back and eyes closed, tranquil and blissful. Golden horns protrude from her hair like a crown, and a second pair of skeletal arms grips the other woman's wrist. The blue-haired woman, with tentacle tattoos down her body, luminous, prismatic "wings" like a lionfish's fins and quills veined with creeping darkness like an infection, and a halo of drifting anglerfish lights, kneels between her legs and leans forward to slowly kiss the hollow of her throat, her hair streaming behind and above her as if underwater. Shimmering rainbow lights play over their skin.

Love your art! How do you decide which situations or characters to depict? Do you go through many iterations before landing on something?

Starting 2026 with sharing a bit about a project I have been working on for a while. "Death's grand tour" is a magical realism/historical comic in which death takes his reluctant apprentice on a Grand Tour Through Europe in order to learn about the meaning of life and deat's role in it all.

I don't know if there's a fanbase still for V5 now that V6 is in development (and from what I've heard, many don't seem to like either edition!), but I figured I could start converting all my Discipline cards to a smaller format and perhaps make a pack with a new look, should there be any interest.

Thea the Doesie @varrishan.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

Been sick today, but did have the time to read some of the V6 alpha rules. A lot of this is intriguing, some of it is much less so (to me) and I must admit I'm a little miffed at how much it seems to not want to build upon V5. Still early though, and I'll read more when I feel up for it. #vtm #v6

@gregersn.eurosky.social linket til det, men det stemmer at V6 er i ferd med å bli annonsert. Det er ikke helt offisielt enda; mer detaljer kommer veldig snart. Så hvis man vil ha den ferskeste utgaven av Vampire, så blir det mer snakk om den fremover. Nå liker jeg også veldig godt V5 da ^^

Singaporean artist Leia Ham reimagined LotR as Tale of the Middle Kingdom, since Chinese name for China (Zhōngguó) means "The Middle Kingdom." Her concept art includes the Fellowship, armors, buildings like Bag End, props like Aragorn's banner and Fellowship brooches, and more. #TolkienTrewsday

An illustration of the Fellowship, reimagined with Chinese-style period outfits.

An illustration of armors of Gondor, Rohan, and Rivendell Elves, reimagined using different periods of Chinese armors as concepts. On the top right are three side profiles of Rohan man, Gondorian, and Elf with different Chinese hairstyles. On the bottom right is Aragorn's banner redrawn with Chinese influence.

A concept art of Bag End reimagined as Chinese court houses, with tall stone gates, round wooden doors, curved roofs, and open courtyard, nestled in a hill.

A concept art of Rivendell in the style of Chinese painting. Next to it are several props drawn in Chinese style such as Fellowship brooch based on gingko leaves, lembas in the shape of mooncake, Elfstone as round jade, Galadriel's phial in a green jade bottle, and shards of Narsil.

More #L5R art featuring my OC, Daidoji Tama, and her major crush Ikoma Rieko. The latter is inspecting Tama's... rather serious wound after a big battle. Lots of context that I can't get into here, but suffice to say they have complex relationship.

Job hunting in a hostile environment. ✨

A three panel comic done in mostly a blue-purple ink. Frame 1: The artist, a tired person with their hair in a bun and a bag on their shoulder standing in the awning of a bus shelter. There's an ad on it that says "STOP HIRING HUMANS", above a woman whose face has been replace with the word "AI".
Frame 2: The bus comes, it's wrapped in an ad that also says "STOP HIRING HUMANS." The artist has a blank look.
Frame 3: A plane has now arrived above the bus and the human. It's carrying an ad banner that also says "STOP HIRING HUMANS".

A new drawing I did of my OC and player character Daidoji Tama from a Legend of the Five Rings game I am part of. I am kinda obsessed with drawing her lately, haha. #l5r

A digital drawing of a dark-haired woman with brown eyes, looking wistfully at something in the distance. She has a feather quill behind her right ear, and her hair set up in a simple bun, with strands of it falling down to the side of her face. She wears a kimono in purple hues, has a wakizashi tuckered into her sash, and a furoshiki (traveling pack) tied across her chest. The background is a simple circle in blue tones.

I've made some simple mons for the families of the great clans of Legend of the Five Rings! Free to use for everyone, really, as long as it's not claimed as your own or sold. You can find them here: drive.google.com/drive/folder... #l5r

The mon of the Agasha family: a golden dragon on a green background encircling and protecting an opened up pomegranate; the seeds within symbolizing thousands of possibilities and near endless potential.

The mon of the Ikoma: a yellow torii gate shaped like a lion on a orange-brown background, symbolizing the family's link to the spiritual realms.

The mon of the Asako: a hand holding a flaming quill in the process of drawing a circle, all in reddish tones on an orange background. The flames signify their Phoenix allegiance, while the quill and the drawing points to their focus on knowledge and ways to store it.

The mon of the Moto: a grim, stylized mask in golden tones on a purple background, pointing to the makeup their warriors often wear in battle to intimidate their foes.
