Had to redo the shaman some because this is set AFTER whatever happens in 12.1 and STUFF happens to her. Deliberately leaving STUFF ambiguous as I have no real idea what happens in the next patch yet aside from what's been previewed thus far, so there's no real spoilers here aside from my own headcanon and ocs I guess. But there is a reason her scars are gone.

Also Toluca (Zandalari Monk) gets a proper introduction to the family! As to why Sohto is introducing her to Sai'in (the troll shaman)? Sai'in is actually his mom and has...complicated issues with the Zandalari Empire.

Blame Blizzard, compared to their lore, this isn't even close to weird enough.

At this point I'm including one of each class because I've tried them all and I'm a monster that can't resist making up stories as to why these characters exist in the first place. I am incapable of making meme characters for more than three seconds.

So here's the mage and demon hunter, two time-displaced "what-if's from different timelines that got stranded in Timeline Prime thanks to bronze dragons existing. Blame Blizzard, they set the precident. I've got one set left but I'm kinda waffling on what I want their ultimate fate to be so I'm gonna sit on that for a bit before committing to it.

Finished up this set after some last minute changes. Originally Sennika (the worgen) was in human form but then I remembered pictures of people holding their gigantic fluffy dogs like they were puppies and I couldn't NOT do that.

Also changed Sennika's outfit to the new .1 warlock set because it's actually pretty badass looking without the shoulders. Also goddammit Blizz give us hoods that are down for races where you don't ever plan to fix the clipping issues! We know that head piece is going to look like trash on worgen.

These two have got to be my next favorites to draw next to the stabby rogues. They're just so unbelievably broken to the world around them it's both infuriating and adorable.

Updated Shop

Working on setting things up as I move my shop from Shopify to Big Cartel, so for those interested in buying any art merch I have, you can find me on https://fogheronstudios.bigcartel.com

I'll be shutting down the All Nighter Studios shop when my subscription expires in September.

Next set is up. Worgen priest is an old abusive spinster who is the worgen warlock's aunt, and the dracthyr is the warlock's best friend-no-longer-with-benefits who is fiercely protective of her.

I really like the crazy old couple vibe these two have acquired as they've aged (they're in their 50's or equivalent now in-game). They're also adorable dorks when they're not stabbing people.

I opened up for headshot commissions a few months ago and I put together a bunch of examples with my WoW characters and really once I started it was difficult to stop.

If you're interested in commissioning one of these shoot me an email over at [email protected]

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

So on a whim (and to force myself to practice writing for work projects) I started actually writing the stories about my WoW characters that I’ve been drawing for almost two decades.  This initial one is how the large chunk of them originally met back at the end of BC/beginning of Wrath up through the end of the expansion.  

I’m currently rough drafting the last chapter and it will be done at some point, and then we’ll see where the next few segments go.  I try not to repeat too much of the ‘already established game’ events word for word, and focus more on the personal stories woven in between all the big world events, but there was about 6-7 years of me not playing WoW and just vicariously living through whatever was available online or whatever happened in the initial 3 months of the next expansion when I would resub for a bit and then inevitably quit again.  

So I’m unsure if there’s much material for a full on fic like this again or just snippets, or possibly short comics?  Still figuring that out.  But in the mean time, enjoy the crew that started it all.  Note the mature rating and tags please.

Kid druid (Sohto) grew up and spent a good chunk of his teenage years in Drazar'alor. Not that surprising his gf (Toluca) ended up being Zandalari, much to the displeasure of his mom (who was held prisoner by Talanji for seven years as a sort of political hostage in the aftermath of BfA)

I made these tonberry stickers in response to....well...everything these days.

Tonberry stickers available on my shop: www.allnighterstudios.net

Made some sassy verdling stickers featuring my plant dragon designs and some very uncouth language because some days just be like that.

I had a few big projects with some board game and card game creators a bunch of years back and while one didn't meet it's financing goals and the other was never released to my knowledge, I was pretty happy with how they came out.

[armesan]

So currently these are the new guard of characters, as all the older ones are now in their 40's-50's canonically in game. Not that canon has ever really mattered in WoW, but I like adhering to some semblance of structure.

Between the amani and the worgen, they definitely get the paladin into all sorts of trouble and may or may not be a throuple at this point. The cat is definitely an accomplice.

I think this was kind of the first big collage compilation of the WoW crew of my characters after I started tinkering with the concept. Included a lot of charcters that I hadn't played in years or didn't really have stories for anymore. It's streamlined a bit since then.

The original crew of WoW characters from 2008 when I first made all of them/really started playing. The core cast remains, even if I don't think I really play them anymore. I rotate mains so often they pop up every once in awhile. They all get an update at the end of an expansion regardless though because I love these nerds.
