[hardy gulch]

ooh, you got a piece of artwork?

[fossil wyvern]

Oh absolutely

[hardy gulch]

that's really beautiful. what subclass of warlock are they?

[fossil wyvern]

She’s a tome pact warlock, that’s as far as I’ve gone with her

[hardy gulch]

ah, ok

[solemn bay]

@sonic grail i couldnt resist doodling your character ... i got too excited seeing a kitsune ❤

[sonic grail]

ok thanks

can i keep this

[unborn mica]

Wish I knew how to draw or knew someone who could draw

[hardy gulch]

i'm mediocre at drawing and i have quite a bit of free time. if you want something drawn i could try it

i'm still waiting on my drawing laptop though

[unborn mica]

Well if you want to give it a try

[solemn bay]

@sonic grail haha of course!!! It’s yours !!!

[sonic grail]

thanks

[unborn mica]

my current PC is a high elf druid, Really tall and slim, long dark brown hair, looks very elvish, used to be a pirate, carries a really nice Cutlass, has a green coat, like of a pirate captain, that is a bit old, has a belt that goes over his shoulder, like a knife belt, but he keeps 2 books with leather covers. Also some tall boots, a few bags on his belt. Also has a tattoo of Bahamut (kinda like a ouroboros) on the palm of his hands

On his backstory he lost his memory when his ship sank, His mother owned a bar and his father was a famous captain, he is looking for both of them

Was stranded on a Island for a few years, managed to get back to civilization

got a small cabin in the woods from a friend he had made after returning, when that friend passed away of illness

and lives there from now on as an apothecary and barkeep

If anyone wants to give a try drawing this mess have fun xD

[steel yoke]

Your hook sounds nice, but without any bait I don't know if you're gonna get a bite

[old cape]

@red mural THATS SO CUTE WTH

[unborn mica]

I'm broke xD

If I had some money I would gladly pay

[fossil wyvern]

If anyone draws and is interested in a program, clip studio has 3D models for anatomy

[unborn mica]

I prefer just 3d modelling

I got away on drawing class by just making models of what i wanted to draw and drawing over then

[wicked yoke]

Kitsune are fun.

[red mural]

@old cape that was from session 0

My bard boy

[old cape]

He’s so cuteeeee

[red mural]

Thank you

[agile rock]

Tried to paint again for the first time in a long time, my friend's Cleric 😬

[waxen star]

nice 😄

[steep hull]

Looks good.

[agile rock]

Thank you both. ❤

[oblique cargo]

It's not easier painting 3d printed minis either, very well done 😃

(I'm working on converting the PHB into an epub. It was more work than I thought. It's now approaching the "arts and craft" level 😂 )

[neon peak]

Project Saltmarsh update
||Basement done including secret doors||

[waxen star]

ooooh

[neon peak]

I don't know if there's a better way to share lots of images on discord?

I would do an imgur album, but then you lose the spoiler option

[neon peak]

That's nice, I love the linework

[sacred zealot]

That's a great drawing and yeah super well defined line work

[waxen rain]

Thanks!! ^^

[waxen rain]

I also did this.... my character got roughed up by some vampires ;/ man, they really suck sometimes.... .

[neon peak]

ba dum tss

[waxen rain]

; D

[wispy wren]

Finished another 2 hour painting of one of my player's DnD characters, Adémar the Eldritch Knight. Reader of trashy romance novels, drinker of wine and conjurer of green fire.

Did I mention he has an outrageous French accent? Well, he does.

Hope y'all like the art! ^_^

[waxen star]

Looks awesome 😄

[wispy wren]

Thanks @waxen star !

[neon peak]

I really love the composition and the lighting

[solemn bay]

i think "epic" is the best way to describe your work @wispy wren

[tawny escarp]

Firbolg Gloomstalker

[sour lotus]

an 8ft tall invisible stabby lady? damn thats terrifying

[tawny escarp]

Try 10.5 feet and 550 lbs. You better water your plants

Face close up

[sour lotus]

I though Firbolg only went to a little over 8 ft?

[steel yoke]

tactical heels

[sour lotus]

I mean most typical ceilings are 8-9 ft tall

and doors are 6ft 8 inches

almost 4 feet taller than a door

[unborn mica]

Looks like me

(I'm 6ft 2in)

[solemn bay]

damn you 're tall lady @unborn mica !!!

[unborn mica]

Lady?

[tawny escarp]

Forgotten Realms wiki has them listed up to 11.5 feet

[unborn mica]

I meant that firbolgs in general looked like me xD

[steel yoke]

If you follow the citations, those are from older TSR supplements that don't reflect the 5e rendition of firbolgs

according to Volo's Guide to Monsters, "Firbolg are between 7 and 8 feet tall and weigh between 240 and 300 pounds."

[unborn mica]

on 5e they are a bit more grounded

[tawny escarp]

🤷

[unborn mica]

being 3m is a lot

[steel yoke]

I mean, you do you, and if your DM is okay with it more power to you

I just hope she's used to stooping more than usual

[tawny escarp]

I am sure this will not have any negative implications at all /s

[sour lotus]

yeah 5e has them as a reasonable height

considering your disguise self lets you look up to 3 feet shorter

at 10 ft you could only hide as a goliath/bugbear lol

[tawny escarp]

This disparity is only hieghtend by a party of a Gnome, 2 Halflings, a sub 5 foot Drow, and kobold. Hrm. I must flee to the character sheet for edits

[unborn mica]

Call her snow white

[mellow dawn]

Finished a chibi version of my and my gf’s characters

[solemn bay]

@unborn mica ah my bad. Since the character was female I wrongly assumed you were too. And yeah @tawny escarp my firbolg is 9ft tall and one of his signature moves is crouching down hugging his knees when trying to stealth (which still makes him a freaky giant boulder figure) and ask his rogue « do you think they saw me? »

As long as you have fun. Ain’t nothing wrong.

[unborn mica]

That is basically me playing airsoft

I look like a tree instead of a bush while wearing camo

[solemn bay]

Hahahaha well, that’s still some sort camo!!

Just stand still and move with the wind

[wispy wren]

Thanks @solemn bay ! ^_^

[plain badger]

After busy working at my new job for a week, finally got around to apply for the sealer.

Gotta finish it this weekend.

[wispy wren]

Did a one hour speed paint of one of my DnD NPC's as a wind down before bed. ^_^

She's a Water Genasi Monk Kensai.

Hope y'all like the art!

[neon peak]

[steel yoke]

Very to the point. I like it!

[steep hull]

Looks great!

[hexed nimbus]

Small sassy lady, smallest and skinniest of the team, yet only actual adult in the party. Rest of us seem to be mentally 5yos

[steep hull]

Is it really d&d without immaturity?

[hexed nimbus]

No, and that's one of the reason we love it

[plain badger]

Teehee

[unborn mica]

It is always good to have one or two immature players to make the game more fun

or at least who roleplay as immature

[copper ravine]

Painting the rainy day away at the local game store.

[agile rock]

Whoa, the fleshy inside of that maw is super well done.

[copper ravine]

Thanks. It needs touching up though now that I have some proper detail brushes.

[steep hull]

They do look great!

[copper ravine]

Just finished putting a dark wash on the base of the fire beetles. Amazing how a wash and dry brush can take a boring flat color mini and bring out a lot of details.

[unique cargo]

That's one fearsome purple worm

[copper ravine]

Barely started on that one. That's just the base coat. Haven't touched anything else other tha the base.

[copper ravine]

Almost done.

[neon peak]

That looks terrifyingly awesome

So I'm at the stage where I need to make the cave walls for my project

Foamboard and mountboard are both to hard to sculpt around the tiles

what do people thing of this?

It's just heavy gsm card

The seems don't look too bad

The left is a tab, the right is a tab and a support. I think the left works better?

[plain badger]

First base coat. Now I am not sure if I should paint it silver or white.

[neon peak]

Silver would be sweet

[plain badger]

Hmm, OK. Will stick to original plan.

[unborn mica]

I would paint it black and just put a really thinn coat of silver

will give a worn metal look

[plain badger]

May have to coat it in silver and dry brush the edges and morphed parts with black instead because am currently super low in black

[fringe cosmos]

@unborn mica has someone already drawn it?

[unborn mica]

?

[unborn mica]

my PC? i didn't really expect anyone to draw him tbh

[fringe cosmos]

I will

I am studying for a master's in art

I'll draw him

[unborn mica]

wow

[fringe cosmos]

But I'd like to keep In touch, start with a few rough sketches

And work from there

[unborn mica]

Well, I didn't expect that

[fringe cosmos]

Ok so to start with

What style?

B&w pencil,

Colored pencil, oil pastel,

In no good with paint

White on black

Or even just sketched

What'll it be

Oh and uh

My specialty is in the study of human anatomy in the 7 1/2, 8, and 8 1/2 canon

Ping or dm me when you decide @unborn mica

[waxen star]

You should talk to him via PM 😃

[plain badger]

Only varnish left.

[lofty cedar]

Why does does this look so cool to me!

[plain badger]

Thank you.

Eveeeeeeeel dice.

[lofty cedar]

Wait how u make that I need this in my life XD😂

[plain badger]

Start with a cardboard version of d20 and add air dry clay.

Then paint.

[wispy wren]

Had the pleasure of painting this piece for DnD Beyond's 'Heroes of the Vale'

Hope y'all like it. ^_^

[solemn bay]

PIGGY BACK RIIIIIIIDE !!!! i wanna be that character so badly hahaha

[copper ravine]

95% done now. Need to try and do some dark brown washes on the spikes and teeth, but that's gonna take some time.

[steep hull]

Looks good.

[tawdry shoal]

@wispy wren Thank you for your art!! I love it SO MUCH!! Orkira and Penelope go for a flight!!!

[copper ravine]

Just finished the dark wash on it. Huge difference.

[thin relic]

beautiful

[errant nimbus]

Oh boy that's terrifying

I love it

[solemn bay]

Yeaaah always better with a dark wash. Love it

[sudden echo]

@copper ravine looks really good

[copper ravine]

Thanks.

Just finished a hydra.

[sudden echo]

damn

[copper ravine]

Big monsters like the purple worm and hydra are pretty easy to get done quickly. THough painting all the bone spikes and plates sucks.

[sudden echo]

yeah i mean it looks great in the end though

[dim axle]

So I just finished painting my first miniature in over 25 years. I am less than pleased with it. Any tips for heads/faces/eyes? Even with my smallest brush, the eyes seem impossible to do. Thanks in advance.

[barren iron]

I need to learn how to paint minis

[copper ravine]

Paint the color you want first, then use a fine detail brush to add two dabs of white on either side of the color to make the iris. Tiny tab of black using your smallest brush for the pupil.

@kerm

The hydra was dead simple. Base coat dark green, dry brush light green on the scales, detail the claws, bone spurs, etc, and then use an ink/wash on the mini. THen do final touch up.

[dim axle]

Thanks! Is there something smaller than a 000 or 3/0 size brush? It's the smallest I've found so far and it seems too large for that kind of detail work.

[copper ravine]

I don't know brush sizes. I skip eyes for now.

[neon peak]

Still need to add some details, flashing on the roof, furniture, props etc, but ||Saltmarsh Manor is basically done||

[copper ravine]

Probably a brush out there with a single strand for eyes.

[neon peak]

I like how the caves turned out

Next up, ||the Sea Ghost||

[unborn mica]

Damn that is amazing

[neon peak]

Taken me maybe two weeks of work

The boat is probably going to take half that, at least I hope

[steep hull]

Looks great!

[humble turret]

holy cow davyd

amazing work

[violet furnace]

Neat

[thick smelt]

@neon peak that is amazing

[echo shell]

Fun flat image of my goth cowboy elf (shadar-kai blood hunter)

[harsh basalt]

Starting a series of robot sculptures inspired by one of my players who makes clockwork familiars. What do you guys think?

[thin relic]

I like it

reminds me of some cartoon but I can't place it

[ancient wyvern]

Kinda reminds me of a cross between littlebig planet & invader Zim. Like a gir costume for the main character

[harsh basalt]

Haha thanks yeah Invade Zim + steampunk clockworkish is what I'm going for. Gonna do a brass robot next

[obtuse helm]

Kinda reminds me of Clank from Ratchet & Clank

[plain badger]

The Mimic d20 is now completed. Hope the person will like it and not toss it straight to the bin (yes, it had happened before).

[wispy wren]

50 min into a sketch of a mindflayer doing its thing.

[quick viper]

om nom nom

[signal sky]

He hunger. The mindflare looks great!
Tank that mimic is awesome! I hope they don't throw it out.

[waxen star]

@wispy wren that's terrifyingly great!

[wispy wren]

Finished! I stopped at the 2 hour mark.

[solemn bay]

looks like that guy wont be having any more migraines from now on

[wispy wren]

@solemn bay No need for painkillers when theirs no brain pain .... Or brain for that matter.

[solemn bay]

precisely. that mindflayer is just being a really thorough neurologist. "SLUUUURRRRPPPP.... NOPE. No tumour. Good job being healthy."

[quick viper]

he's cured his patients of every mental illness ever had. best doctor 10/10

[turbid fiber]

One of us... One of us... One of us 10/10

[solemn bay]

speed painted the next bad guy (girl?) for my players... Ganaar. 20 min in ^^

[violet furnace]

Strategic golden scales~ 😄

[solemn bay]

yeaaaah clothes didn't make sense on her. Had to come up with something ...

[unborn mica]

Dragon centaurs

amazing

What is she actually?

A polymorthing golden dragon?

chimera?

[digital canyon]

It's a female gold dracosphinx.

[violet furnace]

It's Wendy

she's not an object, jeez. She has a name and a family!

[barren iron]

^

don't objectify her!

[violet furnace]

I've never been able to get metalic colours right whenever I've done art, so I love that goldness

[solemn bay]

HAHAHAHAHA omg you guys. She's the reject of a gold dragon family. an oddity that was never meant to be born, and hence has rejected the wisdom and way of life of her metallic dragon siblings, and has turned into a cruel sadistic hermit ... thing.

so more like a... magically malformed dragon ?

im classifying her as legendary abomination

[unborn mica]

It is a bit weird, the golden dragons would probably experimented the hell out of her

they have a weird fascination with magic and science

but they are usually good

they would probably investigate so such thing didn't happen in the future

Maybe she was used by them for testing, didn't belive the greater good that her family believed she was being experimented on and scaped

[solemn bay]

there's a lot more to her backstory yes but i wanted to avoid posting a 30 pages essay on here hahaha

[quick viper]

"we're gonna do tests on you" "lol nope"

there you go, 30 pages succinctly stated

[solemn bay]

bahahaha

perfect

[violet furnace]

Weird ones are probably the exception

[quick viper]

i don't care if she's weird
she purty

[violet furnace]

No mean golden dragons in general

like I'm sure you have weird celestials too, but they'd be in the vast minority

[hardy gulch]

weird celestials are definitely in the majority, though

[solemn bay]

whaaaaaat is thaaaaaaat ? The one ring to watch them all ?

[hardy gulch]

it's an ophanim, a type of abrahamic angel

not a demon, an angel

[solemn bay]

nice !

[quick viper]

it's in Dante's Divine Comedy!
In the part known as Dante's Paradiso

[queen crag]

My digital painting of a Lich like entity

[steep hull]

Looks good, what program?

[queen crag]

I did it in Adobe Sketch

I recently switched to Procreate, though

[steep hull]

Cool.

[thick timber]

I'm too lazy to do actual lineart :>

[agile rock]

😮 The values on the face are killer.

[cosmic flare]

@thick timber Certainly not laziness

Been working on an animatic for my players bios. We made folk songs, and recorded voice overs. It's gonna be a whole thing.

So in turn, it feels lazy to not do a background or color

[torn granite]

i make sfm art by the way.

[shadow nimbus]

First time painting miniatures

Or, painting at all, really

[plain badger]

You guys have seen the group picture. Here is my character. Having a soft spot of all things Drows, there is no surprise my first option always goes to one of their lot. Folks, let me introduce my OC Nhilva Arab'und

[dim axle]

Nice work, Kronos! Way better than my first efforts.

[frail juniper]

finally etched some clear acrylic 10x10 sheets to toss in my bag...

little dry erase, toss some maps underneath... chuck scatter terrain on top...

[steep hull]

Cool! Great idea.

[frail juniper]

so tired of carrying around a tub of foam tiles lol

[unborn mica]

I just draw everything on the spot on a piece of paper

[frail juniper]

yeah ive done that too but wanted something reusable and more versatile

[unborn mica]

I'm looking forward to building my full D&D set out of an enciclopedia

will make a "secret" compartment book

it will be a dice tray and will have mini/dice storage and map/combat grid storage

I think i will make like 4 sheets of acrylic like you did and place them over the map

the Dice Tray will be inside the compartment, I will be able to remove the dice tray and use the book as a DM screen

[neon peak]

I love working with foam board. With ||saltmarsh manor|| done, it's time to move on to the titular ||Sea Ghost|| from Ghosts of Saltmarsh

With full deck plan

[unborn mica]

Amazing

[agile rock]

😍

[neon peak]

Got to add all the internal detail, plus some work to the outside to smooth out the hull a bit more

[shadow nimbus]

Some random terrain I made, it was cool to paint

[neon peak]

Ooooh, nice foamwork

That's a lovely paint job

The highlighting is great

[shadow nimbus]

Thanks! White drybrushing is my specialty

It's practically all I can do

[neon peak]

Ha, well it's certainly an efficient skill

Get good at drybrushing and you can accomplish a lot

[unborn mica]

Dry brushing is life

[plain badger]

Agreed!

[shadow nimbus]

specifically white drybrushing

[unborn mica]

I remember my times of dry brushing

Silver dry brushing cockpits of scale planes

Until I took a paint brush to the knee

[copper ravine]

Inking and drybrushing are awesome.

[wraith swallow]

@shadow nimbus How did you make those edges?

[timid trellis]

Looks like drybrushing

[dim axle]

First pieces in 25 years. Practice pieces before I start the minis for our current campaign. Any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated. I currently am not pleased with my skin tones or my finishing washes.

[storm osprey]

'finishing washes'?

[dim axle]

Just a homemade wash (very thin coat) I've been applying near the very end...to help bring out shadows and deepen details.

[storm osprey]

The general modern consensus is that a wash will make it look dirty and grimy if slopped on, and so unless ure pinwashing (pin point application) it's basically the 2nd step

Base
wash
rebase everywhere but the recesses*
progressive highlight/drybrush up

Might be why ure not happy with it? Kinda dirtied it up? Bit hard to tell from the distance and photo quality

[dim axle]

Thanks. From the videos I've watched...it was about 50-50 on washing before or after dry-brushing. I'll try it earlier in the process.

[storm osprey]

Also, how is your homemade wash behaving? running into recesses or beading up like water?

[dim axle]

I do think applying the wash later does adversely affect the skin tones more than other colors.

It's super thin and runs into crevices like you would want...but I often have to remove excess with a drier brush.

Last night I heard adding some soap to it helps it behave even thinner.

[storm osprey]

^^

that was where I was getting to

[dim axle]

👍

Thanks for the feedback, TD.

[storm osprey]

no worries m8

welcome back to the hobby!

[dim axle]

Thanks!

It's so friggin hard! I took it up as a relaxing hobby. Not sure what I was thinking there...

[storm osprey]

it totally is, most of the time 😛

[dim axle]

Do you think it's worth buying pre-made washes instead of mixing your own?

[old finch]

A sketch of my tabaxi, Navi.

[vestal nexus]

Cool, what class is she? Rogue?

[thick timber]

and she blep

[old finch]

Yep shes a rogue

[solemn bay]

being a ranger is tough you guys ... i cant stop drawing her

[violet furnace]

😄

[wispy wren]

Painted another DnD character! Noxas the Tabaxi Fighter! T'was very fun to paint! :D

It's in my new style as well. About a 4 hour paint. ^_^

[wicked yoke]

That's pretty neat!

[wispy wren]

Thankyou!

[shadow nimbus]

Some mediocre art I did of a cursed sword I'm probably going to make a plot point for my campaign

[violet furnace]

neat!

[storm osprey]

@dim axle yes, at least for the 'big 3' of black(ish), brown and red-brown

the ones that will do 95% of everything ya need

nuln oil, agrax earthshade and reikland fleshshade if looking at gw

[storm osprey]

Be sure to get the normal ones, not GLOSS

[storm osprey]

@thick timber I love the blepping drow, is there more?

[elder glade]

Catchup on the painting thread - if you want brighter looking, then basecoat in your desired colour,. wash, and then drybrush highlights with your original colour.

alternatively, have a peek at GW's new Contrast paints, which are very interesting for ham-fisted painters like me 😄

[plain badger]

I literally did the opposite on my Mimic d20. But it was only because I have very small amount of black colour left.

[elder glade]

Waiting on my batch of Contrast paints to arrive (I normally use Army Painter paints and ink washes). and (nor I have a camera set up over the workbench) I might do a 'watch a ham-fisted painter turn out something vaguely decent' video

as I have some Saxon warriors to paint

[dim axle]

Thanks TD and Mike!

[neon peak]

My players are about to start their own AI franchise

Don't think any of them speak legalese

[quick viper]

are those real wax seals?

[barren iron]

AI?

[quick viper]

[thick timber]

@storm osprey I don't have more of her right now but I plan to draw more! :)

[neon peak]

@quick viper yep, real wax seals

I really need to get some different seals, I only have one generic one

[quick viper]

Still looks quite impressive

[neon peak]

Thanks

They're going to be opening an AI franchise as a cover story for being in Waterdeep to do Dragon Heist

[steep hull]

The contracts do look good! I love how AI can be incorporated into almost anything.

[neon peak]

Yeah, it's great because it adds something of a purpose to downtime activities

[steep hull]

And adds a new aspect of rivalry to keep players on their toes.

Damnit you dirty pirate. Stop moving while I both heal and traumatize you.

[dense lion]

Ooooooo is that your Gnome Ranger? Also! Super I love with your art style!!

[steady marten]

I want to pet the cat so bad ._.

Really like the style aswell, good job Jenga

[solemn bay]

@dense lion yes it is. Just finish a game this morning and as per my personal tradition I always doodle 3 highlights of the session ^^

[old cape]

Wish I had the motivation to do that

[dense lion]

That’s such a cool idea! I’ve been meaning to go back and do something similar. Right now, we just document fun quotes from Trakins campaign.

[steady marten]

How do you do them so fast though O.o ive been trying one and I still havebt finished it xD

[solemn bay]

Hahaha it’s just a doodle. There’s no shade no light source. I draw a first layer with rough outlines, then color the background and another layer in the middle to contrast the characters. Takes about 20 min per drawing max

[dense lion]

I am kinda jealous! My pieces (even sketches/doodles) take hours!

[steady marten]

Still though, the line art looks so crisp. It’s really good

Im in the same boat as you, Tiger, hours for line art here as well

[solemn bay]

...thanks you guys 😳

[hexed nimbus]

.... i like making character based off of old designs of other things c:

[violet furnace]

😄

[wooden dagger]

a little WIP of my half-orc hunter. I might leave this one behind for a few days to work on a few commissions 😃

[quick viper]

sideburns give a +1 to any persuasion check

[wooden dagger]

I was aiming for intimidation, since he's a half-orc hahaha

[steady marten]

Thanks y’all! Ill post the finished piece once I get back to her

[wary tree]

Not sure if it counts as art, but, I mean, I technically designed it. 🤷 This is the forest gnome arcane archer that I'm going to be playing soon, Tornrik.

[copper ravine]

Cool.

If you're any good at shading, you could do some coloring of that in photoshop or gimp.

[violet furnace]

I've done that. Works fine

[dim axle]

Hero Forge?

[copper ravine]

Yeah, that's what that is.

[dense lion]

YO @steady marten Your art is HELLA GOOD! I can’t do action poses at all! But man! I’d totally commission work from you even if it took months to complete! Would definitely be worth it!

[waxen star]

Yeah, it's fantastic 😄

[dense lion]

I guess I should share some of my art now too...

This is my Protector Aasimar (homebrew) Dragon Domain Cleric who I am currently playing in @signal sky s Eomay Campaign.

Her name is Ithuriel Rimi and she’s 7ft tall! She’s in her mid 30s but appears to be in her late 20s and surprisingly has had two kids (that no one needs to know exists 😉).

I’ve been working on her for months. She’s gone through armor changes and everything. So this is her now, with her radiant soul wings active and her weapon and shield on display.

[waxen star]

Wow 😮

Fantastic work

[dense lion]

Thank you! Probably the best work I’ve done in a while... I need to practice more! Have yet to develop any sense of my own style.

[plain badger]

My third character for my group's level 10 one shot arena battle.

[copper ravine]

If anyone needs a fancy title graphic for their GoSM campaigns:

[plain badger]

I've been using the font from NWN2: Mask of the Betrayer since forever. But this one look neat too.

[timber arrow]

I did a lil sketch for a character that I’m playing as in a home brew one shot

[wispy wren]

Did a 2 hour paint of Fjord from the DnD show Critical Role doin' his ELDRITCH BLAST.
Hope y'all like it! ^_^

[steep hull]

YEEHAW!

Looks great!

[shadow nimbus]

e l d r i t c h b l a s t

Fjord is my favorite critical role character, he looks great

[quick viper]

Enough to make a warlock cry

[timid trellis]

HOOOOW
If i spent two hours painting i would have.. well a mess

[vestal nexus]

[shadow nimbus]

Very, my painting skills only come out as kinda okay on a miniature

[violet furnace]

This channel is powerful

[marble osprey]

anyone here do comissions?

[wooden dagger]

I do @marble osprey

[marble osprey]

got a price sheet or DM you with the details and get a qoute

[wooden dagger]

it's on #dnd-advertisements but I can DM you

[chrome sonnet]

Playing around with editing and I came up with this for my Warlock

[plain badger]

You guys are so good. Make my little doodle look shabby (hides them)

[solemn bay]

@plain badger Noooooo !!! No hiding anyone’s art!!! This channel ain’t no competition ! We all have our styles and technics ! That’s what’s so awesome. The diversity!!! I like your work ! POOOOOST !!! NO HIDIIIINNNNG

[violet furnace]

The ||Sea Ghost|| from Sinister Secrets of Saltmarsh is finished

With fully accessible levels

That marks the end of my foamboard endeavours (for now)

[tall rose]

wow, very impressive!

[oak hearth]

noice!

[thin relic]

You should make/share some foamboard tutorals

[agile rock]

^Agreed

[unborn mica]

well, check Adam Savage's foamboard tutorial, it is pretty great

[shadow nimbus]

I would like to do more stuff with foam, but I don't have the right tools for it

[tough bridge]

I made a few character cards for our 2-man party dnd team 🥰

[vestal nexus]

They’re pretty

[tough bridge]

Thank you 😁

[vestal nexus]

How did you make those?

[tough bridge]

In photoshop, I've saved the psds too so as we level up or find things that change our skills (like the luckstone i found last session 🙌) i can just edit them real quick

[vestal nexus]

Okay, I was hoping it was a website so I could make one easily

[tough bridge]

Ah nope, but I'm always looking for new things like that so if i do find anything online I'll be sure to post a link here!

[vestal nexus]

Thanks

[neon peak]

@shadow nimbus As far as foamboard tools go, I just used an xacto blade and a ruler, plus some sandpaper after watching the tutorial @unborn mica showed me

[shadow nimbus]

Yeah, I dont have good enough foam for that, won't give a clean cut at all

[neon peak]

I just used 5mm foamboard from amazon

Pack of 10, £25

Still have 4 4/5 left

[tulip panther]

Them character sheets look very cool

[solemn bay]

Thought I’d share my latest commission with you guys. Done for @signal sky loooooved working on this one

[opaque kraken]

Nice!

[signal sky]

Yessss! My beautiful barbarian!!

It looks so fantastic

[agile rock]

The patterning on the scales looks amazing

My world map!!!

[shadow nimbus]

Looks amazing! I wish my maps were as stylized as that

they're pretty barebones functional

[quick viper]

give them some sort of grid, and a circle border

make it look like someone in the game drew the map

[hasty plinth]

Love the gunslinger build with a passion. >:}

[quick viper]

yeehaw

[wispy wren]

Did a 2 hour paint of Yasha from the DnD show Critical Role about to lay down some hurt on disposable demon spawn No 31.

Cue Thunderstruck.

Hope y'all like it! ^_^

[keen dome]

wow that's great

[wispy wren]

cheers!

[gleaming jasper]

Amazing!

[quick viper]

Critical Role is real awesome

and so is the fanart

[wispy wren]

Thankyou. ^_^

[quick viper]

Have you considered submitting your critical role fanart to their fanart email?

You may get your picture in one of the videos either during the break or during the amount of time after the game

[wispy wren]

@quick viper I do! Won a signed dice tray because of it. 😃

[quick viper]

Oh WHAT

dope

[waxen star]

@quick viper nice 😄

My "dice tray" is just the lid of the Starter Set box plus a spare mousepad

for my metal dice anyway

for my players, I use a dice tray that came with another gambling-themed game (I don't remember how I got it. present maybe?) called Last Chance

[quasi crown]

Have an old travel backgammon board that works reasonably well as a dice tray. Have found metal dice need a little more room though.

[shadow nimbus]

A family member actually made a dice tray for me, it's pretty cool. Black and red, favorite edgy color combination

[plain badger]

Our group DM practically put the Mimic dice chest I made him on the top of his cabinet for everyone to see. Feeling proud every time we go for our sessions.

[plain badger]

Recently sorting out my art folder and stumbled across this. Back in the days I didn't know how to use Photoshop at all so this is all pencil.

[solemn bay]

@wispy wren i think what I love most about your art is your use of light. You somehow renderer it so perfectly and consistently. Growing a big fan here. Got an instagram?

I know it’s not the point. But I LOVE YOUR LETTERING !!!

@plain badger

[plain badger]

you were talking about my lettering or tartankiwi's?

[solemn bay]

Yours haha

[plain badger]

Oh okay. Thanks.

I got one that actually have more writings on them. It was a poetry from that game, not my creative writing.

Apology for the mushiness.

[waxen star]

❤

(you did rhyme gold with gold though in the first line 😛 )

[gleaming jasper]

This makes me want to draw a dwarf or two. Shame I haven't practiced in ages... Or know quite how to draw a dwarf.

[plain badger]

@waxen star That was written by David Gaider.

[waxen star]

ah

what game

[plain badger]

Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark.

I have the original legend edition but I think you can get it on Steam now?

[waxen star]

ah. never actually played any NWN game

steam does have NWN Enhanced Edition and DLCs

[plain badger]

That series was the gateway to all things Dungeons and Dragons for me.

Especially the Underdark.

And Drows.

[violet furnace]

It's really good art.

[neon peak]

race looks like a thri-kreen to me?

[quick viper]

aren't those more centaur-ish?

[neon peak]

Nope

4 arms, 2 legs

[tawdry shoal]

@wispy wren Welp glad I got my commission in early, after that piece and Mercer calling you awesome I hope you are super busy!

[left portal]

Thri-Kreen Barbarian

[quick viper]

nice

[shadow nimbus]

I actually have a country in my world comprised of thri-kreen

[wispy wren]

@tawdry shoal Aha it's forced me to open a print shop! I am though, if you need a piece done I can whip it up quick smart just like before. 😄 If I have heavy deadlines for other projects I'll tell ya. ^_^

[tawdry shoal]

@wispy wren Good deal. Let me get past the July 4th holiday and the trip I gotta take and then I'll have more money to throw at you 😄

[wispy wren]

fair! Hope it's not all coins or that will hurt! haha. @tawdry shoal

Hope your trip goes well. ^_^

[plain badger]

For those who are experienced with painting the minis, I have a question.

How do you guys paint the eyes?

I found unless you have a microscope, it is almost impossible to do any detail on the eyes.

But for races like Drow, Dragonborn or Goblin, their eyes are usually in some very specific colours.

[shadow nimbus]

I still haven't figured out how to paint the eyes

[plain badger]

It is so tricky. A couple of members of my group got their minis but all of them kind of stop at the eyes, not entirely sure how to do it.

[storm osprey]

Ok so a few things are gunna help get fine detail like that

first things first let's establish what looks good when painting an eye.

Skin to white just looks off, it never looks good. The eye should have a dark rim around it

so we start with it being dark and in shadow in there, a dark base, not black, but like a dark purple or something

Now we come to the white of the eye

the trap is going for the teeniest tiniest brush you can get, a 30/0 or something

it's a trap because acrylic paint dries so fast, you aint getting that paint off the brush until you push it up in there and apply too much pressure and BAM, there's too much white everywhere (go for an off white btw, not a pure white)

What you do is get a nice small brush without it being too small, let's say a 0 or 3/0, around there

and some flow aid

[plain badger]

flow aid?

[storm osprey]

https://proxy.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.dcInoK-5_vyefayPbvFG_AHaSN%26pid%3DApi&f=1

This stuff is the big secret to all fine detail

it's super effective, needs diluting with water like 10:1

but when you have the right amount in that paint, take the brush to the paper first to get rid of excess, it will just flow off the fine tip of your nice brush like... well perfectly

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khaA0gNY-EU&app=desktop this video will take you through it, vince's stuff is the best

[plain badger]

Golly I need to bookmark this vid.

and a very good magnifier.

[storm osprey]

@plain badger all his videos are great, all intermediate-advanced stuff, really a way to take one's stuff to the next level

[stoic rivet]

Very pretty!

[violet furnace]

Neat

[woeful surge]

ohh that's awesome

[old cape]

Why are tabaxi so hard to draw ;-;

[neon peak]

Because getting a cat to sit still in a rogues costume and pose is almost impossible?

Like, why won't they just old on to the damn tiny crossbow and sit still?

[vestal nexus]

Also Furries

[mellow dawn]

This is what happens when you mess with whale’s milk merchants

We were running a modified version of wild sheep’s chase

[vestal nexus]

Whoa okay

[wicked yoke]

A lot of people draw Tabaxi as Khajiit, if that helps.

[woeful surge]

It shouldn't be far off conceptually

[old cape]

Okay then

[plain badger]

Actually the first time I heard if Khajiit. Had to look it up.

Goodness.

[solemn bay]

Too bad. Cause Khajiit has wares if you have coins...

[burnt beacon]

this one has wares if you have coin

[violet furnace]

Which one?

[old cape]

haha i searched it up too

[plain badger]

My baby girl drew me my Drow OC and Nott

[vestal nexus]

She’s better than me at drawing

Lvl 20 Tabaxi for a oneshot this Friday. Not s full char sheet, just basic info

[vestal nexus]

Jealous of artist skills

[oblique dragon]

What do i fill in there?

Backstory i get, but the others not so much

[acoustic garnet]

You don't have to fill anything out there

[quick viper]

that's just flavor you can think of later

[acoustic garnet]

In some Adventurers League games there are factions you can join or ally with

Or if you have a background like "folk hero" or "noble" you could put "commoners" or "nobles" under allies just to remind yourself that those people like you.

Etc.

[old cape]

@vestal nexus thank u I put much sweat and tears ;o

[vestal nexus]

Your welcome, I have no artistic skills and have extreme respect for those who do.

[marble osprey]

DnD beyond is pretty good at pointing out if you missed something

you find it at the Attributes tab

[steel yoke]

I think you might've missed your starting equipment?

Where can i fond that

Well you'll have to remove the daggers from your inventory

I want to play a Human Barbarian with magical dragon scale armor where it is on her

Well if you wanna use it feel free

[turbid fiber]

a dragonblood line sorc as a monk?

[vestal nexus]

Multiclass

[marble osprey]

had a friend who wanted to play a deathclaw, Honestly this looks like a race/class that has some deathclaw like traits

[vestal nexus]

To me that looks like armor

Or scales growing over skin

[untold bolt]

Meant to be scales or rocks

[vestal nexus]

I see scales

[honest parrot]

Looking to buy mini’s but reaper don’t have what I need. Where else can I look? That has great quality

[rose aurora]

@honest parrot Dark Sword Miniatures is good, Warmachine has some really awesome miniatures. Kingdom Death has some high quality if not a bit risque models, and Warhammer Fantasy has some reallt awesome models too.

What wxactly are you looking for? I may be able to help you look.

[honest parrot]

I’m running storm kings. I have a few giants but want a few more. Also a roc and beholder. Cuz I’m doing my own encounters.

[rose aurora]

Nolzur's has a pretty nice looking beholder.

http://www.shieldwolfminiatures.com/index.php/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=20

Here's a roc mini i found. Personally, im not too crazy about it.

Better quality image of the sword model

[ancient wyvern]

@errant nimbus if general grievous entered the world of doom -^

Also, @unborn mica, you may want to either lengthen the business end of the blade or shrink down the handle to help the proportions look just that tiny bit more tangible. Other than that, lookin’ great!

[errant nimbus]

yeah that sounds like a cadaver collector

[unborn mica]

It is just the angle of the pic

the guardians of salt marsh

[signal sky]

Yes it's all perfect. They look great!

[unborn mica]

well, guardians of the galaxy have a really well structured D&D party

Rocket = Artificer, little crazy personality
Gamora = Monk/Ranger? really serious and is bad at representing feelings
Starlord = Fighter, Charismatic and sarcastic party leader
Groot = I don't know for sure, could also be barb
Drax = Barbarian, doesn't understand what most people consider normal

They follow group archetypes similar to D&D parties

that is waht I want to say

[marsh flame]

You're not far off, actually...

Again, L-to-R: Artificer, Knowledge Cleric (with Wizard Initiate feat), Rogue (going Swashbuckler, then possibly Hexblade), Bard (college of swords?), and Druid.

@graceful quail's art is always amazing. Glad D&D Beyond ordered another season of his art!

[marsh flame]

I was looking for his handle in the server's members and couldn't find it! Curse my inability to search properly...

[torn granite]

i make sfm posters by the way.

[unborn mica]

gotta love corvo attano

want to give a corvo cosplay a try some day

[torn granite]

i wanted to give him some justice in SFM since he's one of my favorite characters in gaming and since Dishonored is my favorite game.

takes the bland "stoic, silent protagonist" trope and gives him real depth.

[unborn mica]

I'm thinking of getting the outsider's mark tattoed to be fair

Not on my hand like corvo, but still I would love it

[wicked yoke]

@unborn mica Starlord is a total bard.

[unborn mica]

Multiclass

[wicked yoke]

Fair enough.

[unborn mica]

Yondu is for sure a Bard + Fighter too

100% arcane archer

controls arcane arrow by music

[wicked yoke]

With Curved Shot++++

[tawny escarp]

Recently commissioned piece I did

[unborn mica]

This is Trickster's Bane (AKA, Longsword of Missing)

After every time you miss it decreases your To Hit bonus, but also adds one extra damage dice after every miss, it ignores all of your to hit bonus, it has a fixed 0 that decreases every time you miss, after 5 misses it will do 6d10 slashing damage, but you have a -5 to hit. If you mix for the sixth time the sword deems you not worth of it and creates a tear in dimension and goes to another owner, causing 10d10 damage to everyone in a 15ft radius that fails a dex save with a fixed DC of 12

And this is Cataclysm, a Sword of imense power, said to be forged way before the human age, it is told that it bears powers of leveling entire cities! Design and lore by Kronos, Model and render by me

[shadow nimbus]

And more lore to come about such a weapon

[mellow dawn]

Did a ref sheet for my DnD character Catherinsa Utily (Also, facial expressions)

[violet furnace]

Zoo keeper! 😄

[mellow dawn]

she is an archeologist

but yes she did look like a zoo keeper

will draw a more scholarly outfit for my wizard

[violet furnace]

hehe, it's still nice

[mellow dawn]

ya i have just started learning drawing

and drawing is fun when you have developed confidence

[violet furnace]

Definitely. You just gotta keep practicing.

But you're off to a great start!

[mellow dawn]

thanks Nick

[unborn mica]

Add a hat

every archeologist needs a hat

or be Alan Grant, even tho he is a Paleotologist

i cannot think of an Archeo or Paleontologist that isn't Alan Grant

[woeful surge]

Indiana Jones is an Archaeologist

[unborn mica]

Indiana Jones and Alan grant are the same person in different realities

One fights a highly intelligent and organized society of beings, the other one fights nazis

[wooden dagger]

just finished this commission! I'm so happy with the result and even happier because the client seemed very satisfied too! ❤

[vestal nexus]

Pretty

[signal sky]

Love it!!!

[proven estuary]

thats pretty :)

[wooden dagger]

thanks!

also, commissions are open again (:

[proven estuary]

I would love to have one for my party :)

[wooden dagger]

hey! @proven estuary I'll DM you about it, if that's okay

[heavy dust]

Loving my new Tiefling Paladin. Commissioned from Wintercoco

[waxen star]

those abs

I'm in love

that said, this armor seems highly impractical 😛

[stark kelp]

what armor? all i see are shin guards

[hardy gulch]

she must be the type of paladin that only fights small creatures like giant rats, goblins, and kobolds

[sacred cipher]

That or she's just relaxing at home.

To be fair, as a fellow Tiefling Devotion Paladin, they are super fun to play.

[hardy gulch]

could be, although you never know with those pesky kobolds. they could pop out of the ground any minute now, ready to strike at the knees

[grim ivy]

I'm thinking of starting a podcast where I read short stories submitted by viewers, would any of you be entertained by that?

[tawny escarp]

Firbolg Gloomstalker with different outfit

[ancient wyvern]

That is a far cry from our usual Pumats & Caduceus’s

[neon peak]

Is that style considered usual now?

It resembles the Volo's Guide style which I thought was still considered the norm

[plain badger]

I still prefer pencil over anything tbh.

[tawny escarp]

@ancient wyvern tbf the only DND stream I watch is The Chain by MCDM

[tawny escarp]

Portrait of the above

[fluid coral]

My current party! (I'm the Dwarven Palladin)

[quasi hare]

each of them look so lovely!

[final raven]

I'm loving the "Zardoz" outfitted human

Basically exactly how my barbarian dresses when he performs in the gladiatorial ring

@fluid coral do you know if the humans outfit was a reference?

[fluid coral]

It's a Sean Connery character, but not sure from what, I was just shown the photo reference

[agile rock]

Amazing designs.

[violet furnace]

Cursed image,

[final raven]

I'm glad I recognized it haha

[wise spruce]

i'm mostly done with this dm screen, i just need to add the hardware tomorrow and finish sewing the pockets but the carving is done and all of the finishing is done too https://www.instagram.com/p/BzgcSKqnV8-/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

[ebon yew]

Can I get some comments on my art please

@wise spruce what did u think

[wise spruce]

memes are always good

[plain badger]

Found myself start planning to make a Jester Plushie. Yes, THAT Jester.

[mellow dawn]

i just got some overhead slides and printed my AOE template

because in my current game i use dragon's breath a lot

[marsh flame]

Is anyone else doing the RPG Writer Workshop?

[steel yoke]

I am!

[wooden dagger]

wait, what workshop is that?

[plain badger]

Workshop?

[ancient wyvern]

I drew my own reaction to a player death in my game.

[errant nimbus]

Tabaxi Wizard of the school of transmutation.

[lethal tide]

Made a thing. Who like reading books ?

[shadow nimbus]

Woah! Looks sick. Also, nice gummy bears, crazy coincidence, I have some as well

[lethal tide]

Haribos are the best XD

[dense lion]

Holy shit yessssssssss

[plain badger]

Luv it!

[errant nimbus]

A aasimar oathbreaker Paladin of Helm

[wicked yoke]

Nice look.

[wicked yoke]

Can't figure out how to compress this well, but here's my new map so far.

Definitely not to scale. Otherwise the towns would be like 30 miles large.

[opaque kraken]

Noice!

[gleaming parrot]

@wicked yoke do you have any tips for amateur map makers?

[wicked yoke]

Wonderdraft is a great map maker program, and there's a few good videos about map making from aswd20.

Such as realistic topography, how rivers run, the lush and dry sides of mountain ranges, and other things.

[gleaming parrot]

Cool, thanks!

[wicked yoke]

Biggest thing to think of by and large is to imagine your rivers as starting in higher places, as they flow downhill.

[olive shard]

Water always flows downhill unless the landscape is enchanted somehow. It'd be a pretty cool way to show the observant adventurer that something in the area is a bit odd

[wicked yoke]

Mhm. And lakes don't empty out of more than one low point either.

Unless for instance, you have a dam where you release water from two points at the same level. In my map, the mountains ringing the water, that is a massive dam.

[olive shard]

Another thing that would be interesting to include, at least in your own notes as a DM, are odd landscape features

Like that river in England that looks like a gentle stream from the surface, but a foot below that is a deadly undertow into subaquatic caverns in excess of 200 meters deep that literally no one has ever actually explored because no one survives long enough to do so

[wicked yoke]

Well, that's kind of hard to show on a map 😛

[arctic thicket]

its just an idea to add in your dm notes

[olive shard]

That's why I said your own notes 😉 so if someone is dumb enough to go for a swim in that hex they've got no one to blame but themself

I like looking at real-world natural formations for indoor in things like that

[plain badger]

Found this old binder journal and decided to turn it into my player's handbook. There is Nhilva's house glynth and her name written in Drow on the cover. Alas, the silver permanent marker ran dry half way through, making it look funny.

[thin relic]

It is just travel wear from being in your pocket

[olive shard]

Can I just say how amused I am that you just have a fidget spinner with your handbook. Props, dude

[plain badger]

Yeah I still got them. 😏

@thin relic Gotta reuse. The proper one cost a little to much for my wallet, ye know.
