A couple of my favourite drawings from 2024!

First off, one of the last drawings I did last year

And one of the earliest

I've worked a lot on the game Esoteric Ebb in 2024. Nessan is one of my favourites!

Another one for Esoteric Ebb I really like is Akzel!

The coolest character I drew for Esoteric Ebb is a secret one though 👀

My Kickstarter campaign for "The Cult of Dreams" was one of the biggest things happening for me in 2024. Thank you to everyone who backed!

Another one from The Cult of Dreams

Yet another!

I dabbled in sci-fi a bit too (looking to do more sci-fi in 2025)

And this!

Alternative history Sweden with airships

Thanks for enjoying what I've drawn in 2024! Let's have a great 2025 🔥

The Black Cauldron (1985) - Concept art by Mike Ploog

[oldschoolfrp]

Ploog previously worked on Bakshi's Wizards and The Lord of the Rings and brought some of the same style to The Black Cauldron. While the protagonists are typically bright, colorful Disney cartoons, the Horned King and his minions are pure dark fantasy, especially the Army of the Dead.

Kinda feel like there's some untapped meme/reaction image potential from old horror movie trailers...

The wonderful Warhammer art of Adrian Smith.

Not very blog-centric but I will NEVER pass up the chance to reblog Adrian Smith’s artwork.
