Still needs a little editing to make one of his ears all floppy, but this is Swiftfoot, a level 15 Rabbitfolk Drunken Master Monk that one of my players will be running for a oneshot next month. They have flowers growing out of their fur coz they're from the feywilds. #flatcolor #rabbitfolk #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dndcharacter #monk #flowers #pansy #anthro #drunkenmaster #illustration #colourillustration #noshading https://www.instagram.com/p/CMem9WmjxFg/?igshid=jolzwy5ppeck

Ive been experimenting more with not using outlines for stuff and I gotta say, Stream looks way better for it!! Ive been working on them solidly pretty much since around 6.30pm (with breaks for food and stuff) and it was glorious watching it all piece together! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #tigertabaxi #tiger #anthro #tabaxi #dndcharacter #bard #color #colour #illustration #digitalillustration #digitalart #wacom #adobephotoshop #adobe #cellshading #characterportrait #dndcharacterportrait #art https://www.instagram.com/p/CJzsEKdpZ2F/?igshid=i6mf5to759rg

This is Leif, my latest D&D character creation! (i have at least 3 others I've not drawn yet and 1 more that I need to draw properly!) He's a Firbolg Druid. I found that Firbolg take a lot of similarities in face shape from the Naavi (Avatar) and Gelflings (the Dark Crystal) so I found a bunch of images from both as well as the official art for reference when drawing him out. I drew him completely digitally with my (dads) wacom tablet and i have to say I've definitely improved with it! #firbolg #firbolgdruid #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #d&d #dndcharacter #dndcharacterdesign #characterdesign #color #colour #characterportrait #illustration #art #digitalcolour #digitalart #wacom #photoshop #drawinginphotoshop #adobephotoshop #adobe https://www.instagram.com/p/CJvB4pDpt4l/?igshid=1rs92d2x7afsx
