The Basilisk Shepherd

This is technically my final work for class, Took a while to do but i learned a lot doing it, quite proud of the result. The Shepherd is well equipped to feed those savage birds and avoid getting turned to stone in the process!

Leather-born dragon, I learned how to use Zbrush doing this project, I wanted to make an stat block for it and maybe design a one-shot around this possessed leather collection of drawings I've been doing, but I don't think I'll have time to.

I had the itch to draw a little comic for a while, this was meant for comic day but some homework got in the way. A scene from my DnD game, the climax of our longest arc yet!!

Tons of classwork lately, and most of it unfinished, finally I have something to upload! worked a lot on this one, its for my final project, a DnD subclass that I may or may not be able to give a sheet, the living leather warrior.

And of course the process.

The best there is!

Seeing how much you guys are liking the design might as well show the sketches!

Blanket Wizard Art Dump!

What better time than now to repost a bunch of old art?

Back in 2020 I joined the War for Rayuba OCT and submitted Blanket Wizard, Master of Rest and Relaxation. I toyed with a few ideas but nailed down the "weird lil guy in his underwear" design immediately.

I was deeply out of practice at the time, but I submitted my character ref anyways. Despite wanting to draw comics, I had never really tried, but the W4R community was very encouraging. Plus I wasn't expecting to get into any rounds anyways.

I don't exactly know when it happened, but one of only things that changed about his design without any story development was that his ears just kept getting bigger.

I ended up doing 4 comics in total, but I might save those to repost later.

I wanted to do more. Even started cooking some deep lore about BW and what his whole deal was. I don't know if I'll ever fully give up on the idea of doing something with all those ideas.

A common topic on W4R's server was character design and figuring out the best balance between detail and drawability, since any design would need to be drawn dozens of times per round.

Weekly Art Jams also gave us lots of excuses to play with those designs in different ways.

BW's design only changed slightly about half-way through the OCT because of a grand battle round where he headbutted someone with a gem embedded in her forehead and scarred himself in the process.

Also he got pants. I felt like he earned them. (His ears and hair seemingly got even bigger too)

Some more weekly art jams. Actor jam, Space jam, JRPG Jam, and Gender Bender Jam.

I think I'd be here for the rest of the week trying to find everything I drew during the course of the W4R. Not to mention how hard it would be the track down and properly tag all the friends I made during that time

Towards the end, after losing a Side-Swap match, BW got possessed by a handful of ghosts. I had intended to draw a comic explaining how he off-loaded them into various plushies, but I never got that far. Work was killing me at the time.

All of this is only some of the BW art I have. This doesn't even include the fanart I drew or had drawn for me. The Sleep Squad OCs that other people made of BW's weird species, all the fusions (so many fusions…) and so much other stuff.

I loved drawing this little goober and still do.

Winter-tusk dragon

And some sketches + lineart, its been way too long since the last time I drew a dragon and man it has been fun

Local myths from where I live tell about the Ojáncano, an evil cyclops with a red and lengthy beard and a long nose where ravens land to hear and do his bidding. It is said that he breathes smoke, making his night time strolls around the woods look like a forest fire. His only weak point being the single white hair in his beard.

As fearsome and deadly as the adult manticore is rumored to be, there’s no escaping that awkward adolescent phase.
