A view of the buttes that crown the region the PCs are exploring right now. The tall one is the home of a fearsome roc that threatens the entire area. . . . #dungeonsanddragons #landscape #terrain #butte #roc #fantasy #rpg #tabletopgames #sketchbook #sketch #art #artist #illustration #instaart #instagood #dailysketch #mountains #pen (at Mar Vista, Los Angeles)

This one is for my D&D players. A moment from a recent session: Amicus gives the solemn and resolute Quartermaster, Milosh, a gnoll-tooth necklace. ❤ @lnconliff @stardistaravis @_twiv @elyseface . . . #dungeonsanddragons #rpg #tabletopgames #npc #characterdesign #draw #drawing #illustration #cartoon #cartoons #art #artist #gaming #gnoll #necklace #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #instaart #instagood #dailysketch (at Mar Vista, Los Angeles)

I would do what Midna says. You have no choice, really. In MANIA, her narcissistic personality disorder gives her the power to infatuate whoever sees her! #kickstartMANIA . . . #maniacomic #kickstarter #mentalhealth #comics #comicart #crowdfunding #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #masterpiece #creative #photooftheday #instaartist #graphic #graphics #artoftheday (at Mar Vista, Los Angeles)

Jumpstart lives with persistent depression. As a Supermanic, his depression manifests as an expression of the gravity around him. The weight of his depression becomes actual weight. But through courage and perseverance, he's learned to reverse those effects, and give himself the power to defy gravity. As a Supermanic, he's reached new heights, and has begun to use his powers to help others. He is an inspiring figure in the world of MANIA. If you'd like to see these pencils come to life, and continue Jumpstart's story, please share or back our Kickstarter! Issue 3 depends on your support! Use the link in my bio, or simply go to maniacomic.com.

Iris lives with obsessive compulsive personality disorder. It's a complex condition that makes it hard to relate to neurotypical people. Those with #OCPD have incredibly exacting standards for work, behavior, and routine. In Iris's case, it also gives her the power to see and manipulate matter at the molecular level. Now she has precise control over the world around her. But does this help or hinder her? Just one of the many questions we ask in MANIA, the comic franchise I'm working on. This is one of my pencils for Issue 3, the fate of which hangs in the balance on Kickstarter. Please help by backing or sharing!

Prism's pet "locusts" are one of my favorite aspects of our comic franchise, MANIA. Maybe because I'm an #insect lover. Prism, who lives with #ADHD, is the queen bee in the center of her robotic hive. They carry out the thoughts in her chaotic brain so that she can focus. These panels from Issue 2 were painted by the talented Mr. @_twiv, and lettered by yours truly. Please follow the link in my profile to kickstart Issue 3 today! #kickstartMANIA . . . #locust #locusts #mentalhealth #mentalillness #mentalhealthawareness #bee #bees #bugs #bug #photooftheday #pets #animales #nature #animallovers #pets_of_instagram #petstagram #petsagram (at A.L.Ex Studios)

#dungeondrawingdudes Day 9: Yuan-ti! Done, on day 22. Look it's been a busy month y'all. This is the king of a yuan-ti civilization, lost for centuries in the jungle. He was the human leader of a snake cult before he undertook his transformation and overthrew the reigning oligarchy, whose skulls now adorn his scepter. . . . #dungeonsanddragons #yuanti #snake #king #cobra #serpent #monster #fantasy #tabletopgames #art #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #masterpiece #creative #photooftheday #instaartist #graphic #graphics #artoftheday (at A.L.Ex Dojo)

WIP #dungeondrawingdudes Day 9: Yuan-ti. I am VERY behind, but it's okay. It's been an incredibly busy week and this one deserves more time than one day allows. It's been nice to have something to work on between work projects. It isn't done yet but I gotta post something! . . . #dungeonsanddragons #yuanti #snake #cobra #serpent #monster #fantasy #tabletopgames #art #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #masterpiece #creative #photooftheday #instaartist #graphic #graphics #artoftheday (at A.L.Ex Dojo)
