Wow.
I feel confident enough to start my husband’s beholder. (Some of the eyes are to be added last minute to facilitate the painting process). Wish me luck, if I mess this up he might never forgive me 😆❤️
It feels weird to type, but that’s an excellent mouth!
wow, really nice color grading on the teeth
That beholders dentist does a good job
delicate application of the disintegration ray to remove plaque
My new character
@bitter hound One of the wonderful things about D&D...it causes you to say things you never thought you would say! 😄
@lusty temple That’s cool! Definite Vanillaware vibes.
More of Dhalia and Brush
Tbh I'm like Dhalia
same
Who selling ice cream when its snowing?
whoever is, they're good
it being cold doesn't stop the desire for ice cream D:<
that's really nice art
No its understandable I actually want a snow cone but its raining so i cant get one ;-;
very clean and shaded nice, I like the style too
Its amazing art I hope to see more of it actually
same!
-whispers quietly- art goals
A samurai, by me.
Um im trying to make dice for my group are there any alternatives to resin if any one knows?
Thats hot!
Ahhahhhh, that's hot
that's hot
My bb boi looks so good.
god I'm jealous of your artskills, so amazing
we had session zero last week and i finally got around to sketching my character meeting the rogue of our new party.
(She walked up and slit a guard's throat from behind right in front of me.) .. .Poor Trico... he really had a bad day.
Hi guys, here is a tabaxi I just finished today. I’m only just now getting used to drawing them. Much better at more human-looking characters. Various inks and colored pencils on paper 💕
Knightty knaght
Thats really cool
Thanks guys! I’m a little insecure about drawing tabaxi, kenku, etc., but I have had some practice lately
The armour looks great.
Thanks!
Cnightty cnaght
Ahhh this sucks but here’s my gnoll barbarian sy landscowl from a dnd campaign I’m in
You guys here are so talented ahhhhh
GNOLLS!!!
Not nearly enough of those
shes cute!
@hot storm I love!! The secret is to throw any sense of anthropomorphism out the window ;)
@lean flare do you take on commissions?
@proven estuary yes
but at the moment they are closed
Ooh yer @proven estuary
@proven estuary here you go https://twitter.com/sirMadmanartist?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author
Followed c: !! @lean flare

@pallid rune Arts and crafts isn't the channel for memes
No worries
Hey @orchid burrow, this isn't really something you need artists for, it could be done easily in excel/google sheets. As such, this post would probably be better suited for #dnd-discussion or #non-dnd-topics
Welp Pen of Smiting is awesome and just did more Beyond Heroes fanart! https://twitter.com/PenOfSmiting/status/1227631208680443904
And we featured ChenevivMi last week on the stream but they did a new piece of Keen!! https://twitter.com/ChenevivMi/status/1225191761594789891
colour is done, now details, lighting and shadow and its done
Supernice
"Galactic Flower". Made with Gimp.
This flower is a symbol of my love for Takal Rozal and my Tulpa Fiona's love for Ry.
Neither of us care if it has any defects.
reworking the design for a warrior in comic. Her thematic is "berserker but also your friend" and is a main character in the story. Which one or two designs do ya'll like the most?
F Def
C
B or E for Berserker.
A and B!
I like A and B
thats an A from me
I really like E!
I have to send four separate images for them to send in order
Context for the incoming spam: the last thing Moon (my tabaxi monk who died and will be brought back as a warforged monk/rogue) saw of the surface was green. It isn't so green anymore.
Finished this guy the other day. As I mentioned I’ve had practice lately with kenku (and tabaxi, aarakocra, etc.) I haven’t tried a full body kenku yet, though... This one’s a ranger. Ink and colored pencil on tan toned paper.
Behold the beholder is doooone!!!!
Is there anything you can’t art, JJ?
@solemn bay love the shading
Thanks @hot storm ! @violet furnace remember I pick and chose what I post. For every good drawing/art there’s a million failures before that 😆
@solemn bay ohhhhh man I know how that goes 😬
they can draw anything. Don't let them lie
My brute fighter Jim. Modified a token from 2 minute tabletop and coloured manually. Finally I get to play again instead of DM!
That Kenku is beautiful, Arthrycia!
Thanks! I decided I wanted to experiment with combining acetate printing and resin and I'm glad with the results
@neon peak A) congrats on the promotion. B) you're still mislabeling the danger d2s
Thanks and the zero is silent 😉
@austere marsh Please don't try and @ everyone, the tag has been disabled for a reason. Also, if you're open for commissions, I'd recommend #dnd-advertisements instead
Davyd deleted it
He is done 
Nice!
Awesome
is this the channel you would go for finding an artist for char portraits? (not looking now but in the semi near future will be)
it's typically for people posting art and other such related things (such as dice-making, etc)
I think some of the folks in here do commissions as I recall seeing it one time, so you could ask them if you see them
nods I had an artist I really liked (She did my current Avatar) but she raised her prices a bit too much sadly
A piece I did recently of a character inspired by a game my husband ran. She is a human paladin of Sekolah, the shark god of the Sahuagin. It’s a long story (with spoilers for Salt Marsh, though he ran it quasi homebrew-ish) how a human came to serve Sekolah. Anyway everything about her is meant to evoke shark-y-ness, from the black eyes to the weapon, tattered red cloak, shield with emblem if Sekolah (I couldn’t find one so I made one up), etc. The art is Copics, pen, and colored pencil on tan toned paper.
nice
Thank you 🙂
Not really a meme channel.
@fallen geyser This channel is for pictures of art, minis, dice-making, and other such things. Memes would be better posted in #non-dnd-topics or, if it is D&D related, in #dnd-discussion. You just need to upload it to an image-sharing website, such as Imgur, first and then you can send the link to it in those channels.
Ok thanks for letting me know @eternal patrol
wip of my dnd character
cute

I like those horns
tief or some fey individual or something else?
shes a tiefling. i wanted to do something different
That's real nice

Waow
these are her colors. I dont see enough yellow tieflings
I love how clean your lines are
thank you 
I agree, we don't see enough yellow tieflings
And the life in the face
oh nice colours yeah
im going to redo her face paint though
I will show
:0
so pretty!!!!
v pretty
antlers and face paint
I'm gonna have to make my next tief have antlers
prefect mix
Agreed!
my tieflings name is Glee. I hope she survives
she's also kind of crazy. Her flaw is that she thinks she can talk to animals. My Dm is having so much fun with that
Here is the lore behind the horns (in Kaia’s world) Long ago, there was a deal struck between Asmodeus in the Hells and Mielekke, goddess of forests. Mielekke had in her forests more evil aligned fey (night hags, specifically) than she wanted in her dominion, and Asmodeus ruled over more good aligned tieflings than he wanted to. So they reached a mutually beneficial arrangement where Asmodeus basically unloaded a bunch of good aligned tieflings and gave them to Mielekke to live in a forest of hers, and Mielekke gave Asmodeus a bunch of night hags to live in his area of the Hells. During the transfer, the band of tieflings sent by Asmodeus (which included Kaia's and Zaizad's ancestors) were touched by Mielekke, and their horns grew to resemble antlers.
Haha it’s totally unnecessary
i just figures since she lives in a more artic area, she has like reindeer antlers
Do they shed their antlers seasonally?
oo, haven't thought of that
Very good question
Since that's the defining difference between horns and antlers
i'd think not, since they arent used the same way as deer or moose use them
antlers are shed and branch out as they grow, horns are permanent and don't branch
Hmmm for my tiefling I think not, since in her lore the horns grow to resemble antlers, but do not become antlers
maybe its a binding method to shape the horns as antlers. maybe for religious reasons
Oooh I like that, might steal
like how the elongated heads back in the day
If you don’t mind
sure
maybe babies had like, molds placed over their horn nubs and they grow into the shape of the mold over time
ideas
A piece for a drawing challenge ☺️ a little Druid in the making
@solemn bay Beautiful character

Thanks bud ☺️
Also. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone ! My card to my husband with homemade chocolate mousse ❤️
I’m already jealous of this Valentine’s Day pun card
Smol drawing of my gf as a bit of a Valentine’s Day gift
"Eternal Seraph". Made with Gimp
damn @obtuse shell your Gimp skills are amazing man
I want to paint some of my new miniatures, but I don’t know which one. I got
- Yeenoghu (Demon Lord)
- Zariel (Fallen Archangel)
- Valindra Shadowmantle (lich)
- a Death Knight
- Lolth (elven form)
- Nezznar, the Black Spider (elven form)
- Nezznar, the Black Spider (homebrew drider form)
- an Undead Bulette
- and a lot of gnolls
@vast oasis Do the Fallen Archangel
Okay, will do
thanks so much!
@vast oasis gnolls for the win!
I mean it would make sense to get started on them, I need to paint 7 of them... but many of the colors are the same as the ones I’ll use for Yeenoghu, so I think I’ll do those (and Yeenoghu) once I’m done with Zariel
Ok cool
A water genasi monk I finished last week. I wanted her hair to look like it was floating and her skin to look like water.
(Ink and colored pencil on tan toned paper)
One of the people in my group made valentines for our characters.
The last three are NPCs.
Nice xD
(get off my ship)
she is done
Omg I love her!! Awesome job
thanks!
radiant
@barren iron Scroll back through today’s messages and there was a whole conversation.
ah thanks
Made a cool CURSED magic item for my "Dragon of Icespire Peak" party to match the theme of "Chaos"!
Zariel, Archduchess of Avernus is now done
oh damn
Those wings are amazing!
Thank you!
@forest inlet holy geez that is love

@forest inlet that is absolutely fantastic, i don't know how any of you guys make your artwork so amazing
@solemn bay , Love the puns
Yay Borky!
I made this aarakocra tempest domain cleric recently. I tried to do an electric energy effect in his hand, but am not super satisfied with the lighting issues surrounding it. Still it was fun to do. Used many references. Ink/colored pencil/white gel pen on tan toned paper.
@hot storm Your artwork is so unique!!! I absolutely love the characters you've been showing off!
Thank you so much!!
theyre so pretty! it looks so good...
Spear birb
@hot storm absolutely great work, love all the types of characters and clothing you are doing

i shall eat
Dice for a lancer game I'm starting up soon
Now the important question is: Could you actually make edible dice?
Davyd plz, I just want to eat them even more now
You can blame @prime meadow, it was their suggestion
You can blame @prime meadow, it was their suggestion
@neon peak
*thank them
My Orc Barbarian, Ulfgar
cool
not much sort of food or equipment like bedrolls etc
it's better to go light in those dungeon runs. leave the heavy stuff with the mount outside
@lean flare sorry I’m so late in seeing your comment. Thank you so much!

I must say, all of you have so much talent, I envy you.
human fighter
cool!
just finished my hubby and I's concept of PC insect race 😄 now i have to dress him up
Nice!
oh god the humanoid hands make it look so strange 😂
My player will Muzzi did art of our party's magicweapons today
The rod of lordly might in all it's forms
Defender
and the Emerald Star and the Violint
Will does do comissions as well, but i was just blown away so i wanted to share this with others.
I love the way the increased AC of Defender is in this increasingly huge pommel that flares out to become like a shield
and the violin bow in the violint is chef's kiss
what an incredible gift to our campaign
Them weapons are beautiful
I love the way the arcane runes on the defender get weaker
as the crossguard gets more powerful
to signify the attack bonus dropping as the defense bonus goes up
the tortle fighter has enjoyed that sword muchly
ooh noice 
i like the axe thing what is it?
one of the forms of the rod of lordly might
im assuming that's either with Terrify active
or Drain Life
Here's a comic he did of party
His character is an awakened cat druid
i allowed to wildshape into a cr 1/8th commoner to have a human form
i love it
Check out ✧rigris🐐 ✧ anxious mess (@goatluminati): https://twitter.com/goatluminati?s=09
ooh my
Went back and started to colour in my Aasimar blood hunter - order of the lycan
Colouring is not finished yet but im happy on how its coming out
ooh
My Triton who has joined the ranks of BBEG in a campaign I'm part of-
Finished this yesterday. Half elf eldritch knight. He has a home brewed magical eye. Copic markers, colored pencils, and white gel pen on tan toned paper.
Oh He's gorgeous!!
Thank you!
I want a corvid pet
The raven was fun to draw
best raven boi
@humble turret is that a character inspired by the Animal Adventures: Cats & Catacombs?
Ahhh, okay
Multiple scathing hot glue gun burns later I've made part of a pirate ship for my players pirate crew
best use of a candle/lamp stand I've seen so far 👌🏻 😂
indeed
Nice, wish i had players to play with locally so i could make props to use.
Wonderdraft added a function called "Territories"
where you can mark area like a political map
Did a little tweaking to my worldmap
added some locations, and advanced the calandar a bit
Base colour is done now shadow, lighting and details
Also @humble turret noice map 
heh, i appreciate the sentiment but it's just wonderdraft doing all the work
: ) your art is really incredible!! good luck with shading
Thank you 
oh wow the effect on that knife is perfect
another amazing piece as expected @lean flare 😄
@lean flare my fave part is the face feathers. Nicely done all around
ooh nice @lean flare i have played an aasimar bloodhunter way of the lycan before. a werewolf angel that could kill people with ice. then the dm had him bitten by a wererat and the character collapsed into my worst pc
wolfrat
ye
just a Skaven but holy
it quickly collapsed
holy skaven hmmm
skaven are col, and the whole party pointed that out but the dm said no, you are basicaly dead to urself no lol
well thats a big OOF
ye
DM ruins character
And thus, Akrosh wolfsbane "existed" and "was the only reason the party made it far enough to burn down city"
but thats what my aasimar is she uses cold for rite and turns into a massive wereowl (snowowl)
ooh
i realise that i could've built him better now i think about it, but hey, he was rushed as i had to build him during a session
he was a scourge aasimar, so i should've had him be able to (u might not get the reference but) satori lord of the mountain thing, and have radiant instead
Ooh noice
Ooh
this is an art channel
for discussing art
please take non art discussion to other channels
Okie dokie
wip
nice
drew my patron from our current campaign: the raven queen
I love it!!
Oh so beautiful!!!!
Thank you!
2020 goals: get Madman and Danii to do up my Tiefling grrl 🤩
So cool!!!
Yesss
All done in three hours live on stream.
Felt very comfortable with how it came out as it also demonstrated speed painting technique
Thanks for the kind words @signal sky
Woooo!!! @late barn that looks great! Resin I take it?
Not at all. It’s a Reaper Mini dragon.
I can do resin very easily as well.
I’ve done a lot of them.
LOL
This is what’s on the project palette right now
Yuan-ti/snake people.
Oooof look great!
First dwarf drawing
When your mushroom boi is stuck. 😭
so im starting to use references and ive gotta say im loving it, it really takes the stress away from trying to make my characters look natural :)
a dapper lad!
lost mine of Fuzzdelver
it is the bestest of art 🧐
true, true art
art elicits emotion, and this does that
Fought this last night and thought my dm did an excellent job at painting it
woah that's nice
i haven't seen any of my DMs models tho i know he does them
What a pretty owlbear
WIP -> I'm designing a dicebox / spell tracker for my character. His patron is the raven queen, so i'll be tracking my spells with little magnetic ravens!
Nice
I love that idea
My changeling actually lost an eye last session fgjkndf I joked about it before and then it happened
@wooden dagger I recently found out that a grouping of ravens is called either "an unkindness" or "a conspiracy". So i'll have an unkindness of spell slots..mwuahahahahaha.
I did not know that! that's awesome haha
looks epic
That man exudes [amger]
he looks half blue and half white
Dragonborn don't follow dragon shape pattern
Angory dargon
I like to think dragonborn do follow that same shape pattern
But can add little things here and there to change how they look a bit
he looks so mad
I love him
Baby's first aasimar, and she's a Clockwork Soul sorc 💜
It's mostly comming down to taste. Some like their Dragonborn more dragony or closer to the color of the dragon they choose but in the end everyone can have their dragonborn look like they want :)
Alt thats Adorable!
@lean flare damn bro! Shaved horn?
yer its @austere marsh character
Dragonborn, tiefling, and, genasi. The most varied in art I would say
don't forgett kenku and aaracokra!
True true
Tabaxi and Aasimar too
Ok you all are right
In the end, everyone does it their way^^
I love like, the customization of all the races
Agreed!
If youre restricted to certain appearances, thats just
thats not bueno
all or nothin on that customization
cos there's no "right" way for any character to look, and thems the facts
I'm playing an orc that has physical deformities(is there a more sensitive way to say that?)
I mean in my head because I do enjoy genetics, i do think of it as chromosomal mistakes and mutations
Like also mentally developmentally disabled in some ways too
Like the tusks curl downwards out of mouth towards neck
ohhh wild
Underdeveloped musculature
Only 5ft tall
Just had session 2 (I will comission art soon) I wear an asian style conical hat and full torso and legs vestments. A mask and veil. So I look so different, but no one can see haha
Concept art
@final raven he shaves it so he can seem more neutral compared to looking like a chromatic dragon
I haven't finished the actual picture yet but i did enhance the photo i took of it so that the wood texture i spent the better part of an hour hand-drawing was a bit more visible 😅
😄 thanks!
I decided to paint Valindra Shadowmantle today, as she’s the BBEG of my upcoming campaign
... god I hope none of my players are in here
Also sorry about the lighting, it’s past midnight here so there’s only my lamp to light up the miniature. It looks better in person than on picture
My wood elf monk, Melete. Art by me, Copic marker and colored pencil on tan toned paper. Her name comes from the Greek muse whose name means “meditation; practice.” She fights with a broom of flying that she uses partly as a quarterstaff, partly as a vehicle. Blood hawk feathers are tied to the broom.
Must be fun for you to play.
Enemy: “Ha, what you gonna do with that broom, hit me?”
Melete: “Actually, yes.”
And then he just straight up dies from being whacked by a magic broom
Yuuuup it more or less goes like that... then she flies away
(Lot of enemies with ranged attacks, longbows, etc in the campaign so it’s not TOO op)
Ooh, what's her way?
Thank you @frozen mist . @olive shard she is a Kensei monk, so she can use a longbow.
Very nice! I think drunken master is my favorite 😄
Love it! My friend uses kensei because it's a walking arsenal
Is that art you've made, or?
No it's a drawing my friend did of my Character
ahh, okay
That looks so so so cool!!!!!!
Thanks!! I've been working on it for far too long
Oh i completely get that!
I only did a drawing of mine and it was a ton of work, yours is just crazy amazing
Oh wow very map
I've made a lot of progress in the past 2 hours
Also I did the lick the tip of the marker thing for some of my dry markers and I hate literally everything rn because of it
That shit
Tastes
*nasty
Love the map!
Still gotta add the resin, but another dice box design beat out.
i am. very pleased with how this turned out tbh.
even though, like a fool, i decided to hand detail the wood grain.
Very cool!!!
that's some damn well done hand detailing on the wood grain holy crap
thank you! it took me the better part of an hour
that's bloody incredible
😄
I cannot draw by computer to save my life, that is epic the amount of detail in the wood... Still getting FNAF vibes lol
Work in progress map of my homebrew world with only a few plot relevant places mapped so far.
Eraza is split into the four kingdoms of Nerudia (mainly a fishing and trade economy, the most racially diverse kingdom), Seratic (mainly farming economy, inhabited mainly by triton, humans and gnomes), Palaminal (mainly mining economy and dwarves) and Maknart (fairly verstile economy, inhabited by dragonborn in the south and wood elves in the north). The northern three are relatively peaceful and well connected. Maknart is in a state of permanent civil war, but regularly declare war on other kingdoms to distract from the inner political turmoil. The party started in southern Maknart and are currently making their way north on the run from a criminal organisation they double crossed.
Nice
Some winter gnomes for my campaign-that-will-never-be-ready 😁
A WIP of a cool image that popped into my head from watching too much anime.
Omg @idle valve THAT'S what it reminded me of. And I've never even played them lol. Still a really cool design! The cleanliness def throws off the vibes, just never draw him rusted and partially broken @olive shard lol
@frozen mist lmao i don't plan to, cats are very good at keeping themselves clean after all 😉
V true! Plus isn't mythril resistant to corrosion? Warforged are made up of mythril as an option, so if you really wanted, that could be your skin
i think SN-0W is gonna be built from darkwood and adamantine
I like it
@proven estuary this channel is for arts and crafts rather than general image sharing. If you have a homebrew image you wish to share, you can upload it to a site like imgur and post the link rather than posting it here.
ok
Thanks 👍
Just finished my Mini after watching Mini Primetime.
Looking good!
hey guys, so im making my first world map and im curious if there are any landmarks, cities, etc that I should add that is relevant to campaigns or just fun ideas to add to it. Im not sure if this is the channel for it but any feedback will be appreciated :)
I'd suggest #homebrew or even #dm-discussion
thankyou!
But definitely put the final product here!
will do! i have an outline ready, im now filling it in
much of this will be hidden, for the people that my players will interact with, the known world is the land mass to the east
@distant herald where you make that?
it looks nice though
i made this on photoshop to come up with a draft but now im tracing it in illustrator to make it easier to place and edit stuff
@autumn plinth love the dice box! got any more pics?
Sure, just finished with the hinges and hooks. Just need to design the whiteboard lid inserts. Underneath fits a book or a fold up grid mat.
Progress on my WIP dice /spell tracker for my dice box. I have a lot of sanding before I try to stain this “wood”. Need to redesign the ravens too. They print like garbage right now.
@autumn plinth ooof. that's sooooo nice!
I like your dice rolling area, and all the designated areas for holding specific stuff
and the hardware
and the lid design
basically just everything
Much thanks, went through a lot of prototypes
sighs
same
@autumn plinth any sage advice ? Maybe some gotchas you wish you would have considered before building ?
I learned the hard way to double check the magnet orientation before super gluing. ;P
Generally? Measure a lot. Then give yourself an any extra room you can. Do not think that just because your dice and figure fit that everyone’s will.
Experiment a lot - sell the failure/prototypes at a deep discount and just keep going.
oh... sorry, i'm just making this for myself
thank you though. Yeah, that's pretty smart.
Ah well, one thing I can say is worry about the fine sanding after stain. Stain swells the wood a little.
i left a bit of room in the box for taller dice eventually.. i think 25-26mm?
bleh. I WISH i was doing this with real wood. this is some of that 3d printable "wood" plastic
I'm holding judgement till after i finish staining and finishing.. but right now i'm doubtful it'll actually work.
i think its something like 70 percent plastic 15-30% sawdust
so basically wood putty?
Can’t say, don’t do any filament printing. But if not just thin out some acrylic. If those are metal dice may want to grab some scrap leather or foam to pad the box.
nods That's pretty much the plan. I have some foam that i'm planning on putting on the top and bottom so it'll sandwich the dice and ravens to keep things from moving around when its closed.
The best way to celebrate defeating an evil dragon goddess is to smooch your bloody, viscera-covered party member/gal pal/wife.
omg this is majestic
That map looks like something you'd see in an old RTS game
Considering it reminds me of StarCraft 1 I'd say so :P
yeah, I can agree to that
That looks amazing!
thanks!!
Working on some more comic designs. This time its for a half human half spider mutant assassin. Dont have a name picked out for her yet. She is gonna be a pretty central character. Which design do yall like the most? (please only choose one)
B
I say A
A gives me major Hollow Knight vibes so that gets my vote!
lol yah it was definitely inspired by hornet
I say A
@autumn plinth love the box
you can probably go to #dnd-advertisements to find someone like that, @wet glade.
I'll move that there.
A friend's shifter ranger! she babie.
SAME. lil babe half-baxi lookin shifter. looks shyyy
I needed to share this GORGEOUS version of my aasimar, Londrehn. She came out so lovely!
https://twitter.com/Niavicia/status/1229939750636838912
Wow
Very much shiny
My Goblin freaking the party out by using fly.
i love them already
smug
She jumped off an air ship and scared them shes a lil troll
and she's done!

they look great
Ooh spider
Art
Yes
Your art?
some more exploration of Higanbana!
"Big Bwue Bawl of Deaf". Made with Gimp and 3D Builder.
kamehameha intensifies
Eye
eye
my art isn't that bad, Yden, rude
It looks like actual art. My art knowledge is not that high, and my art skill is even less high, so that's about as much as I can say,
It isn't bad, it's awesome and I'm surprised
it was the one thing on the page that looked nice
DAMN IT THE EYELID IS GOING THROUGH THE HAIR
that's par for the course in anime :P
Also, The Scream is like Münch's most popular painting, so my reaction is steeped in artistic merit
gdi
eye matey
eye like it
eye dont know what ur talking about @barren iron iris k it all by making these puns
Can someone lens me a hand with all these eye puns. Eyedealistically Eye 'd do them meye self but im running out of eye deas
no
Eye eye captain :
burn
Who lives in a peyenapple under the see
that's not bad
For any mods who question if this is valid in this channel: these puns are art
Yes
Ok eye m done with the eye puns
eye see you aren't.
👀
Eye see that a moderator has caught onto our pun stream
Following a conversation about the nightmare fuel that is the old modron design, I've started working on a design of my own
Still very much early WIP, but going for cute but ordered
Daaww thats adorable
The gear needs work (looks like a weird baby bonnet right now) and needs a manipulator
yeah it looks like a good start, interested to see where it (and the rest of them) go
My core design is going to be (where possible) number of eyes/arms/legs/'faces' = their rank
So a monodrone has 1 eye, 1 manipulator and 1 'face' (a sphere)
Gonna use a bisected sphere with bifuricated limbs for duodrone and so on
I'm not sure if their weapons are going to be held or integrated, but I think held might give a cute little dorkiness to them
Reminds me of ORF from X-Ray and Vav: https://xrayandvav.fandom.com/wiki/ORF
adorable 😄
I remember that show
And yeah, there's no small part of inspiration there
Hmmmm
Maybe 'screen faces' might be the way to go
nice 😄
that might be a bit too scifi :P
could alternately just have full solid colored eyes, with the "eye" color representing... idk, mood, or current purpose/mode, or whatever.
experimentation is probably key
"I thought memory was the key?"
"Well so is the sword"
@neon peak instead of a screen you could make it a kind of aquarium with a cloud of ink that changes its shape to make faces instead ! ...or like a magic 8 ball situation otherwise 😄
Primus sitting in his home, his planner empty and nothing to do "Oh magic modron... Should I get up today." He says shaking a modron "Maybe"
I was bored and doodled.
Nice!
My Aasimar is done https://twitter.com/sirMadmanartist/status/1230454611401637888

ooooh
Always a treat to see your work here
Got a beautiful new notebook and, having been messing with embossing, decided to customise it
That gives CIA Classified folder vibes
It has black edges
I love it
And yeah, gloss black on matte black has a nice 'classified' feel to it
as all DM notes should be
nice
The only note in it...
"Sexy goblin?
Polymorphed dragon?
Demon butterfly."
All of the above
"But wait, theres more."
Well. Now I’m thinking of making a demon butterfly. T h a n k s
I finally drew another full body of my monk since the other one i've done was not that good
drawing wings is hard
I’m debating with myself whether I should finish painting my Drow miniatures, or if I should begin painting my Death Knight OR begin repainting my gnolls
@pallid rune I have a Changeling but I haven’t finished any art of him in a long time
GNOLLS!!!!!!!
By the way where did you get these Gnoll miniatures I’ve been looking for some so I can paint my D&D character @vast oasis
@proven estuary I got the ones with bows from the Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game (although I do believe you can also get them from the Princes of the Apocalypse Booster Boxes), two of them are from Nolzur’s Marvelous Unpainted Miniatures, the grey one with the halberd is from Mordekainen & Volos Booster Box, and the last green one that almost dabs is from... one of the Monster Menagerie Booster Box sets? Probably??
I never really wished for Gnolls, but just got them randomly and was like “Oh, cool.” Now that I also have a Yeenoghu miniature I’m actually glad I have a small army of gnolls
Also reason why I want to repaint them, Wizkids aren’t really great at painting theirs, and I’ve become better since I painted the other ones back in 2018
Our charming goliath who absolutely refuses to wear sensible clothing.
very cool
I got done with all my drow, it took longer than expected, but I’m happy with the result
Praise Lloth.
She’s coming later
Where did you find a drider mini?
At my local board game shop, one of the newer waves of Nolzur’s Marvelous Unpainted Miniatures have a Drider in it
And I’m glad it was there, because it’s honestly an upgrade to the other one I have...
Neither seem as bloated and suffering as they should be.
That’s true, I suppose
Celebri those look amazing!!
Thank you!
@pallid rune I posted changeling art in the past! I commissioned it from a friend. Look if you want, but if you want to use it please commission her for something. She's struggling lately!
Just search for " from:HaloMixter#3169 in:#dnd-arts-and-crafts has:image "
update on my birb box
i had to take it back outside after snapping a few pics. still smells like chemicals
the wood PLA turned out better than i expected. note I used a dark stain and left it on about 4-5x longer than recommended before i wiped it off.
I also roughed up the wood using some large grain sandpaper.. that helps sell that its "wood"
magnets work really well. (those are 2mm x 4mm in case anyone wants to try making something similar.)
:0 it looks so good!
Can’t wait to use it tonight!!
Thanks for sharing - it's gorgeous work. And I love your dice!
Magnets. They made a little mention about them.
ah
Little magnets @frozen mist
No worries
This was just going to be a test for to see if I liked the way it fit into a larger rolling tray I’m making.... and I went overboard
Thats cool
Kinda reminds me of Doom’s Crucible
dragon themed metal get's louder
still far from being done, but my continent is taking shape !!! i'm so excited 😄
Very colorfull and diverse! I like it
I'm making an evil npc who is seeking power and I decided to make him Nixon lol
Nerixon
two great despots who taste great together
but it's a nice clean style, great work
YES I was looking for a name for him :D
Would you be ok if I use that @humble turret ? :o
Hey folks. I’m currently on the lookout for a new cool leather notebook for my DM. He does so much work for us and I want to show some appreciation. He is currently using an old staples notebook that is like 10 years old and has pages falling out with all of his notes for his campaign setting we play in. I was hoping to find someone who does custom embossed leather notebooks and figures I’d ask around here to see if anyone knows of a good vendor or makes them and is interested in a commission. Please message me if you can help me out. Thanks
sure!
I'd check out either the Rook & Raven or Gametee.co.uk @warm monolith
I have a leather-bound notebook from the latter and it's excellent
Thanks ill check them out. I want to get the name of his setting embossed on the front for him @steel yoke
@distant herald remember, HES NOT A CROOK
My husband made me this and I can't stop looking at it. https://twitter.com/OboeLauren/status/1230920142541840385
This looks amazing!
@warm monolith this person sells some on etsy and they are all amazing
Oh that's very neat
Yeah i found them a while ago and id love it if my player got me one so im sure theirs will too
Firbolgs am I right
Super awesome!!!
@stoic raft I wrote that as his defense when he gets caught lol
lol
You are right
@frail kettle thanks I’ll check em out
Np
Painted a plague doc monk 💜
👏🏾

"Upside Down". Made with Gimp.
Don't you feel, sometimes, like the world is above you, and that you're actually upside down?
Lizzzz that looks amazing!!!
Yoink (said the lizard)
I know this wouldn’t be technically classified as art but to me this is art in itself. If your super into Skyrim or funko pops head to GameStop where is the m’aiq the liar pop there LOOK AT THIS FUNKY MAN!
"Feet are for walking. Hands are for hitting. Or shaking. Or waving. Sometimes for clapping." Said maiq the liar
my boy
Werewolves? Where? Wolves? Men that are wolves? Many wolves. Everywhere. Many men. That is enough for M'aiq." - maiq the liar
please don't circumvent the swear filter
Who? Me?
Nope
Oh sorry my bad @humble turret
First drawing of a homebrew character I made named Ren Satomi. She is an Arachne Ranger/Monster Slayer. I haven't drawn in a long time so it doesn't look too good.
I'm not very artistically talented but I'm trying!
is that a spider /human thing?
still better than what i can draw keep, trying!
An Arachne is a half spider half human
They don't gain benefits of humans though only of their spider half.
cool
I'm working on an arcane symbol for my dice box lid. (raven outline was traced from a raven painting i found on pinterest)
Very neat! Are you going to add runes or elemental symbols into the circles, or around the edge?
@plucky pond
@frozen mist ooof. that's a really good idea.... i totally should!
Heck yeah, super cool! If you haven't seen, elderwood academy has cool symbols on their dice vault stuff you can look at. Same with the Cobalt soul journal on the critrole shop for runes
ooooooh.. these are neat. I like their dice tower / scroll idea
i'm actually torn on the whole "dice tower" thing. on the one hand i love the idea of designing one.... but on the other... i really enjoy throwing dice "manually" into the tray.
my very good bunny girl Alice!

love
Wow very cool, I like that jade green sword
She is cute
and yer that sword looks great
i had a lot of fun designing her and the big ol sword
anyone online that does digital art? is it better to export images as PNG or JPG, or does it make no difference?
not an artist, but pngs are lossless, jpgs are lossy, and I think it's harder to get transparency working in jpgs imx
Yeah, I don't do much digital art but PNGs shouldn't leave compression artifacts
PNGs are def better
Less of a digital artist, more of a photoshopper
But I still deal with those
A late Christmas present!
Ye ha brother
Thanks to the advice of some amazing people on Instagram I got my technic down for the spell on my beholder. He’s officially DONE
is there anyone who does commissiom art for character sheets
What do you mean for character sheets?
Like designing a character sheet? Or creating a character image so you can use it with your character sheet
?
we allow folks to mention there comissions here
but all conversations should happen in DM
Yeah, just trying to figure out what kind of commission so I can recommend people
well I do character art, not the sheet though
So cool!!!

Wow everybody loves aasimar, and they draw them in so many differnt ways
I agree completely! I love the difference of aasimars from person to person. It's so gorgeous
I got done painting my Wight/Death Knight, and I feel really good about it! He’s supposed to be one of the final bosses in my campaign, and although he’s technically a Wight, I’m gonna use the stat block for the Death Knight for him to make it a somewhat difficult fight
I love making the dnd races more monstrous with crazy variation bc I love the look of it, especially how people always make celestials all nice and humanlike, I like to lean away from that, who says the holy aren't allowed to be scary?
indeed, indeed
I just finished my drideeer !! Waddya think?? I wanted to try something more colorful for the body ...
Yess so so cool!!!!
Opinions? Be gentle....
I will not be gentle in saying it looks great, you will accept my praise
You are such a sweetie. @eternal patrol Really needed that.
That is a pretty good map! If you're looking for feedback, I'd suggest perhaps extending the rivers a bit.
It looks good, the thing I'd advise is blending the colors more smoothly
P sure you're using wonderdraft which makes such things difficult, but it's definitely worth it
I like that as well!
For example, the northern lake creates a river that leads out to sea, but what feeds the lake itself? I think a river (or two) leading from the mountains into the lake would be great. Likewise, the river just below it seems to spring into being a bit too far away from the mountain range, I think it could use an extension.
ye
was gonna mention that
The south mountain range and lake are good though. That looks like a natural rain reservoir
Agreed, that was my view of it as well
And the "dead lands" extending eastward is evocative, gives the impression that this may be a bastion of life surrounding a large and likely coveted bay.
Also I kind of like the lack of overwhelming detail, as a player looking at the map and deciding where I would want to go, I would be able to clearly see where I can go and then quickly decide where I want to go,
Sometimes, less is more :)
Thank you everyone! That was actually very constructive! I was pretty nervous to post this so this took a lot of those nerves away thank you.
You're welcome!
I just finished drawing my map for my campaign world and before I move onto writing history I wanted some critique. Is this the correct place?
Absolutely,
This is the upper portion of the map, where most of the game will take place
This is a separate continent to the south
Sorry, I don't know how to rotate it
Ooh, I don't see a lot of handdrawn maps, and this is super good,
That continent is pretty densely populated. What kind of setting are you running?
but the stile is very nice!
I am planning on running a modified planescape campaign, It does seem a little packed but I don't have a distance scale that I am working with yet so its up for debate on how big the land is
Thanks for the compliments too!
I see. The topography is good though.
What I notice though is that there is only one lake that is a bit weird vor a whole continent but as you said there is no scale in place
So that could be just the biggest one there is
That's a good point that I am gonna go work on right now
Don't overdoo it though :)
Also the protectorate of magic looks like it coukd need a little freshwater source
unless you have one there that just is centered in the protectorate itself
I'm digging the map though, and it can be refreshing to see something go for simple fantasy naming rather than the often overly complex. Like, Shadow Wood, rather than Duskfear Weald or something.
That island is mostly tundra, but the Protectorate is home to the singular school of magic and they are a neutral political force over the nations. Since their city is primarily home to magic casters i'm thinking that they can probably through trade and magic solve most of their problems. For simplicity I could just say there is a freshwater spring or something of that sort nearby.
Thanks, I wanted the locations to be memorable since geography can get boring for my players, so the simple names work the best. They also give it that classical feel
truth
Both are great reasons, to remember and to give it that classical feel.
I know i'm getting off the arts and crafts theme but does anyone have a recommendation on how to start writing history?
I'd recommend focusing close to home and on what matters most.
And expand from there.
Reasons are twofold, it keeps you from "wasting" good writing if later developments invalidate it or never touch upon it, and it lets your world be more reactive to your needs and the players' actions.
If you'd like to discuss this more, I'd suggest asking about in #dm-discussion 🙂
Ok, thank you!
Hi guys! Any opinions on the skin tones? Sata-n I MEAN...... The DM takes control over the character under certain circumstances cuz of warlock issues, He is suposed to be a hobgoblin with a slightly paler skin tone when his not being possessed, but I'm not so sure about what colors I should use..🤔
oh btw, I'm talking about the colors of the drawing on the right
a very very rough sketch. I dreamed of this last night and didn't want to forget it. I dreamt i used wildshape to turn into this creature to save one of my arcane teachers. .. yes i get dnd dreams. my husband is very jealous.
The three pairs of legs throw me off but it looks realy cool and detailed!
i am jealous too @solemn bay, but its beautiful
leggies
@solemn bay that is amazing and I love it
thank you @hot storm 😄
I just finished this commission today. Gnome necromancer with a white raven familiar. I didn’t have a reference the spell effect so I had to imagine the lighting effect it would emit. Not 100% satisfied but person it’s for likes it, so 🤷♀️
Copic marker, colored pencil, and white gel pen on tan toned paper.
not even session 1 yet
and already the memes
Tokens by @yuikami modified by us a bit.
A birthday gift for LOONA HELLHOUND on Twitter.
"Blood Moon". Made with Gimp.
My T.rex I painted for our own campaign. our warlock regularly asks me if I want to be polymophed into a T.rex so I went out and bought a model and started painting .
Very cool!
Nice job
Waiting on someone to get back to me with character details for a commission... in the meantime working on a character of my own, Nephele, Aasimar war domain cleric. Deity is Torm.
14x11 inched tan toned paper. I’m a little distressed because there is a grease stain thing in the lower left corner 😢
@cold yoke if that's a spoiler, may want to mark it
Oh u right
@hot storm the hair reminds me of Ashley Johnson. Love the wings, although if you want them to look like they can fly I'd add another row of feathers or two
Up to you though!
Very pretty either way
@frozen mist thank you! Yes I have considered filling out the wings some more, but haven’t decided yet. I like the shape of them aesthetically as is, but you are right that they don’t look adequate for flight.
Here is my progress. No more today. Dead now lol
Thats cool
Thank you!
Thanks! It’s just Copic marker, colored pencil, and white gel pen on tan toned paper
Very beautiful! The metal looks so realistic. Fantastic job @hot storm !
Thank you! And one more time posting and then not again until it is finished, but I want your opinion, do you think this is too much feathers?
the feathers are a good amount
I think they're great. Maybe a bit more overlap between the new layer and old, like more old ones sticking over, but that's a fantastic amount imo
Ok, thank you. I do think it looks a little more believable
I’ll keep working on it (tomorrow.) thanks everyone!
I believe that's courtesy of Olya Anufrieva. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Dx6yaE
@potent hill do not post art without crediting the creator
finished painting the creature i saw in my dream ! 😄
Oh god it looks even better in color O.O
Handsome boy!
Time to make a homebrew monster stat block
@solemn bay soooo cool!
People have better dreams than me damn
Oooooh Hahahaha
It's BEAUTIFUL OMG
I'd like 7
Commission I’m working on at the moment
oh damn
@craggy saddle what you make that with?
@austere marsh Wondercraft!
That looks so cool!!
Some lads, after a 5 year time skip
Amazing
Hiii guys, I finished that Aasimar of mine I was working on. I don’t often draw my own characters, but when I do, I like to draw them on 11”x14” paper
Copic marker, colored pencil, and white gel pen on tan toned paper.
I burned through like 3/4 of a gel pen 😢
I must say, the result is absolutely staggering, in a good way.
Those wings look great! Must have been a pain to color though xD
the dedication of art
❤️❤️❤️
@frozen mist thank you!
I decided to spend the evening re-painting the very first miniature I ever did to see how much I’ve improved over the last year
@hot storm Not to make less of the rest, but I love the colouring and shading of the armour. Really has that metallic glow to it 😄
@violet furnace thank you! I got a new set of gray scale markers recently that have helped me up my armor shading game, for sure.
@vast oasis the improvement is awesome! I actually love both of them though 🦉 🐻
😄
@hot storm thank you! I tried to do the exact same things I did back when I first started, but of course (or hopefully) better
Man the evil seeps off this one
Agreed
Looks like an FF dark knight
Ooh that looks fierce!

Night knight!!!
Did this sketch with my tief boy earlier but, besides the jokes about being horny I didn’t actually get much in the way of feedback
