Sometimes you just wanna have a great artist draw your OC real cute-like! Thanks so much, Ops!

[neontapirguts]

Putting this here cuz I can~ 🎵Listen and learn, it is time for prancing Now we are here with Caramell dancing 🎵 A wonderful gif of our dnd party featuring Aeralith - @nekosanddragons-draws

Ayoh - @neonvoidcaster

Duncan - @baronvonjackass

Woddle - @squishysoltan

and Zen - @/thundercock over on bluesky

[baronvonjackass]

I had a silly idea at work one day, and Ops was extremely generous and equally talented in bringing it to fruition! Despite the horrors of the Death Tomb - the cursed Sarcophagi of dead Gods, the weeping skulls of children, screams of the damned, holy shit what the fuck was that thing, IS THAT A FUCKING INVISIBLE BEHOLDER?! - we stay silly :3 And preemptively dance on the BBEG's grave. Which will be a matchbox, if he's lucky.

Extra Life Prizes for @baronvonjackass (one more in the replies)

[baronvonjackass]

Had D&D on the mind this year! In order, two of my friends' characters and fellow party members Woddle the Tabaxi Wizard and Artificer (who is really a Dragonborn!), and Aeralith the Paladin. They belong to @squishysoltan and https://bsky.app/profile/nekosanddragons.bsky.social respectively! In the middle, Marl, the Barbarian from my separate Saturday D&D game.It has been a peaceful day, and their hunt was successful. They have felled a Tree and field-dressed it to bring home tonight. Next, my OC Alphabet, who is not related to D&D but has seen Dragons & Dungeons in other universes. Finally, my Path of Wild Magic Barbarian Duncan!, a Minotaur who really loves fighting and hitting things. It's a grand thing, then, that the Arch-Lich he & Aeralith & Woddle & their friends face left so much cannon fodder in the way! Thanks again to Ops for all his hard work on these, and for doing extremely cool and fun streams for Extra Life every year!

A commission for @baronvonjackass Alphabet as Ash from the Evil dead

[baronvonjackass]

Alphabet J. Williams, the only man still standing between Kandarian demon domination and the souls of the world! He might have lost his mind a little bit, but he hasn't lost his cutting wit, or his booming smile! 'Tis the month of Hallowe'en, when we celebrate our favorite evils, heroes, spooks and sweets! The Evil Dead trilogy is absolutely brilliant art that has well-earned its place in history, and it was about time I paid homage to one of the films my late friend and I adored so much. @neontapirguts brought that bloody, manic energy to Alphabet perfectly! Thanks again, Ops!

comm for @baronvonjackass ! thank you so much!

[baronvonjackass]

Caution: Trip Hazard! This groovy piece depicts the inimitable Bard of the D&D 3.5e party I play in, Spore, hoisting one of the mind-altering Golden Apples that they would use to save all of us from the cruel lightning and debilitating rays of the Grell, and then the charms and wiles of the Succubus thereafter! The Barbarian and the Dragon Ascendant were the muscle, and Spore was very much the mind. From the first conception of this idea, I knew that only one artist could bring it to life in just the way I had imagined, and @iggy-666 absolutely smashed it! The pose is perfect, the colors are gorgeous, and one does feel reality beginning to warp when they stare too long...

Spore belongs to Jemma, who can be found at https://www.artstation.com/itsjemmadraws She is a fantastically talented and hard-working artist, herself!

A cute commission I got from Caevari on Discord, of one of my ATLYSS characters, Thump! I saw a picture they had done of another person's ATLYSS character, and I thought their style was so cute and fitting, I had to get one for myself! As is apparent, it came out super adorable, and perfectly captured the himbo that is Thump! As well, they did a fantastic job on his weapon and armor, and the colors are just gorgeous! If you see this himbo spinning his spear in your server, toss him a carrot cake and he'll help you out!

When Alphabet heard Calli was clearing out his stock of unlabeled potions - and the price was right - he jumped at the opportunity. Of course, you wanna drink it before you leave the shop, just in case... The adventure-prone badger-cheetah got a sweet deal this time: Not only did the potion taste like limeade, now he does, too! And he doesn't have to worry about breaking a bone, waking up in the morning with stiff joints, or osteoporosis! His new ability to squeeze through narrow gaps and small holes could lend itself to the discovery of all sorts of fun and treasure. Just gotta watch out for big straws and thirsty monsters! This was a fun Potion Roulette commission from the one and only @neontapirguts! Who can also be found here: https://bsky.app/profile/neontapirguts.bsky.social

[baronvonjackass]

A Reference Sheet for A Badger-Cheetah! @overfedvenison was incredibly kind and patient with me when they put in the effort to elevate Alphabet from a bit of silly wordplay to a very cute and very real Original Character, drawing up as many variants as it took to make him just perfect. Of course, when it came to his reference sheet, I could think of no better artist to realize that than Servas herself. She was once again as helpful as could be as I hemmed and hawed and scratched my head and changed my mind, and thanks to her, I now have the perfect picture to hand to an artist and say "Just fuck him up, fam." I will never get over those expressions, how cute and how goofy he looks in each one, and I will never stop laughing at that rightmost one. xD Thanks so much, Servas! Alphabet wouldn't exist without you!

[baronvonjackass]

This gorgeous piece was commissioned as a surprise birthday gift for me in 2024 from the fantastical GhostBellies! https://bsky.app/profile/ghostbellies.bsky.social The gift was given by my great friend @squishysoltan! Thanks once more! Sometimes, you just have to give someone your heart. It takes guts! But the results can be sweeter than you ever imagined.

[baronvonjackass]

A few different Alphabets collected from the amazing @neontapirguts (https://bsky.app/profile/neontapirguts.bsky.social), an artist without equal! First, a picture in their lineless style, at the time recently refined! Second, a winter holiday-themed YCH! The reason for the season: big, fat reindeer! Third, a colorful bust offered as part of their annual Extra Life Charity donation incentives for 2024! He and his partner streamed for over 24 hours straight to raise well over one-thousand dollars to fight cancer! It was a great time for a great cause!

[baronvonjackass]

Werewolves are cool as fuck. Fact. Maybe Alphabet knew they were out there that night. Maybe he wanted a little danger, a little love bite. Maybe the moon made him a little crazy, too. We may never know his story now.

This piece - in two variations, one where he wandered too far from the campfire - was made for me by the incredible @gorror-hound! Sometimes, you just gotta get your boy drawn looking like a snack, and Tillie knows damn well how to serve. Look at those details, and feast alongside our subject!

[baronvonjackass]

Alphabet, what the fuck kind of Monster Manual were YOU reading??? I hope one of you tasted good, at least. This delightful picture of my favorite monster and my favorite victim was brought to life by @neontapirguts (https://bsky.app/profile/neontapirguts.bsky.social)! Ops is an absolute rockstar!

[baronvonjackass]

What came first: The latex or the hose? Philosophers have pondered this question for millennia...

This bright and fun poolside piece was a YCH offered by the multitalented @danicatty764 (https://bsky.app/profile/fattycatty.bsky.social)! It was a grand opportunity to give Alphabet a break from whatever novel way I was thinking about murdering him at the time. Look at that big smile, he's having a great time!

[baronvonjackass]

A couple fun little YCHs of Alphabet I got from a couple awesome artists! Chibi Alphabet with his personal pizza is courtesy of @neontapirguts (https://bsky.app/profile/neontapirguts.bsky.social) and Alphabet enjoying a big bowl of ramen is from https://bsky.app/profile/thundercock.bsky.social!

[baronvonjackass]

Alphabet, you dumbass, didn't you hear the rumors about Camp Crystal Lake??? Or did you think you were invincible? Well, that's it for you! Hope you said something funny for people to remember you by! This pair of pictures was commissioned from the excellent https://bsky.app/profile/thundercock.bsky.social! Jason Voorhees is my favorite slasher movie villain. Not even sure I could tell you why. Just my type of (bad) guy! So I thought it would be fun to give Alphabet the honor of being one of his victims. Better luck next universe, Alphabet!

[baronvonjackass]

A couple takes on the same theme: Alphabet the Mushroom Witch! Alphabet brewing something certainly magical and possibly fungal from @neontapirguts (https://bsky.app/profile/neontapirguts.bsky.social) and Alphabet showing off the goods from @danicatty764 (https://bsky.app/profile/fattycatty.bsky.social) Witches wear dresses, of course! That comes with the job! It's part of what separates a Witch from a Warlock, a Wizard, a Mage, a Magician...
