Since I'm just posting D&D characters as of late, here's Merin, my Halfling Barbarian. Why go Bear Totem when you can be Honey Badger? . . . . . #dungeonsanddragons #dndcharacter #halfling #barbarian #fantasyart #portrait #dnd https://www.instagram.com/p/COG1qXtDxZF/?igshid=1ggy1r5487esk

It's finally time to try sculpting a portrait in Blender, so why wouldn't I choose an elf lass? . . . . . . . #clipstudiopaint #pointyears #halfelf #moonelf #fantasyart #portrait https://www.instagram.com/p/CMKyye9DiWo/?igshid=1dprqhgkk9rz8

I will reblog this automaton every single time I see it because I adore it and you cannot stop me.

The Silver Swan can be seen at The Bowes Museum in County Durham, England. More about it here.

They still run it, once daily at 2pm. It’s an amazing piece, and I hope to see it one day.

This was a commission done of a Stars Wars tabletop RPG character; she was described to me as "Leslie Knope in space" (how fun does that sound??) . . . . . #starwarsrpg #mandalorian #maythe4th #maythe4thbewithyou #artcommission #beskar #starwars #charactercommission #portrait #commissionsareopen https://www.instagram.com/p/B_yI79Cj91n/?igshid=1qh130a97lv7

First up for #sixfanarts is Chun-Li! What's your go-to Capcom fighting game? I'd say mine is still Pocket Fighter, even though I'm laughably bad at it. I still have room for at least one more suggestion, or possibly more for a second set of these! . . . . #digitalart #chunli #capcom #streetfighter #fanart #portrait #videogameart https://www.instagram.com/p/B_d3SMfjQ4h/?igshid=15569z0yqtvqa

Sure, why not? Let's hear those suggestions and I'll work on them between Animal Crossing sessions 🦝 #sixfanarts https://www.instagram.com/p/B-poGsojOOG/?igshid=f6l5vp2ds2a5

I get messages like this one every now and then. I understand if you don’t do something, you don’t really know what goes into it, so.. sure!~ Step one. Buy all the above. (Well, I mean, it doesn’t have to be that exact stuff, but you asked what I used, so there you go). Step two. Learn to sew. Learn to digitize. Digitize your embroidery. Test. Test again. Test again. Make a bear pattern. Tweak. Make another. Tweak. Make another. And anotherrrr. And on, and on, and on.. (seriously, see the prototyping bear pile photo above).  Embroider design. Cut pieces. Sew pieces. Stuff. Assemble. Add hand stitched elements.  So all that = Cap bear. The above is what I used/you need and the cost of making a Cap bear, starting from scratch. I’m sorry you think I’m charging too much for my work. I hope you find making one yourself more to your budget.

I'm currently playing a halfling barbarian in a 5e campaign. If she had a Half-Elven sister (don't ask me how that math works out), this would probably be her. #sketch #portrait #fantasyfridays #Sketchtember #elf #halfelf #dnd #dungeonsanddragonsart #artwip #headshot #pencilsketch #colerase #curlyhair #pointyears #elfears #dndart https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Xv40mjC8o/?igshid=vgsh52eim266
