Rhinestone Rodeo Clown

Rising from the flames of my own poor decisions --- Digital Art, Sketchbook, and various crafts

Now, stop tormenting me! I've been speaking from the heart for far too long, and I'm starting to get a little light-headed.

I am delighted to share this piece commissioned by @arendaes ! As a proud patriot of Daeran Nation I was honored to put together a piece featuring him and Arendaes' Master of Concoctions, Glitter Afficionado, and all-around cutiepie, the lovely Knight Commander Ariadne!

I was tasked with capturing the moment of their Act 5 romance scene, and I'm pretty stinkin' pleased with how it came out. We went with an early evening setting, so I could really go nuts pushing the light and values. I think it turned out beautifully, and it was a LOT of fun.

Thank you @arendaes for trusting me with your character!

What's that? Another self-indulgent sketch that will probably turn into some overworked bullshit down the line? And it's of Daeran? Oh you don't say what an enormous surprise.

After much ado and many months of progress, I have completed this portrait for the magnificent @yunessa of their Pathfinder Knight Commander!

Ecstatic to present this commission for @sirenscrawlings !! Minovae Arengier you will always be famous to me <3

Over the last year I've been trying to push myself artistically, so when Siren presented me with the concepts for this piece, I was over the moon. Fancy Magic Crystal? Challenging lighting? CLOTH? It wouldn't be hyperbole to say I swooned at the prospect.

On top of that, Siren has been incredibly gracious with the time it took to complete, communicative through the whole process, and generally just a great person to work with. Maybe I'm a little friend-biased, sue me. This was a great experience, and I am entitled to gush a bit.

DELIGHTED to finally show off this commission for @undyingembers of their Rook, Hissera Mercar!

This was such a fun challenge; my first Qunari commission, and also the first time I've done such elaborate armor and makeup. I think it turned out great, and I'm honored Embers trusted me with this piece. Let me know what you think!

Character expressions 1-10/100

I FINALLY Figured out his hair

[bite-the-bloody-hand]

2/100 Expression Challenge

I'm not quite sure if I nailed the vibe on this one, he feels a little more pensive/like he's been reprimanded for something justifiable than the more worried/thoughtful look I think B1 is supposed to be... But dang if he ain't cute tho.

[bite-the-bloody-hand]

100 Expression Challenge 1/100

It's hard to make Zell look like a wide-eyed ingénue. While he is a big sweetiepie, he just can't quite get rid of that unsettling look of sizing one up for breakfast.

Because he is doing that, but it's not like. On purpose.

[bite-the-bloody-hand]

Little update to the Zell character sheet. Still playing around with how his hair falls but I think it looks okay-ish. Not quite sold on the silhouette & waviness considering how tightly he keeps it braided. We continue to adapt
