I created a bind of @carry-the-sky’s collected Good Omens fics for a fandom art exchange ♥️

(You can read the stories here! They’re so good! Do yourself a favor and read With Velvet Kisses immediately 😭)

The cover was highly inspired by this copy of Clarice Lispector’s The Hour of the Star:

Technical details ➡️

Bookcloth: Lilac cotton bookcloth from Amazon

Textblock paper: Hammermill 20lb in cream

Endpaper: Renato Crepaldi from Talas

Fonts: Versailles (title), Sabon (body)

Redraw of an old, old piece. I’d already been working on this before the finale aired and had to switch gears. Let me live in denial 🥲

I had a very exciting realization about an hour ago and had to draw these two in The Pose immediately

If your DnD character was to meet their younger self, what’s the first question they would ask? 🥲

+ bonus commentary from my wife

When the silver dragon you’ve raised from an egg and also soul-bonded with is finally mature enough to take a human form and speak in complete sentences ♥️ What is a Dragonlord’s dragon but sometimes an annoying little sister?

During a five-year-long (in game) interlude, our party’s druid had twins. Hero and Heron suddenly found themselves with a bunch of guncles to take them on trips around the capital city and tutor them in the ways of magic and mischief ♥️

“I’m no good at relaxing, and I don’t really know how to have fun. But I want to learn with you.”

One thing about me: I will never stop drawing my DnD characters kissing their loved ones 🫦

Second chances for Phoebe & Pythor 🦢

We haven’t had the post-battle session yet, but our characters recently survived a world-ending battle and now finally my stoic, emotionally repressed boy will be able to smile and learn how to relax and have fun 🥺🥺🥺

+ two of the ally NPCs that have not-so-secret crushes on him hehe

From uncertain allies to committed partners 🌅🤲🏻♥️

In an all-day session, we fought a truly epic battle against the storm lord titan Sydon for the fate of Thylea’s capital city, Mytros. Long-kept secrets were revealed, godly allies were called upon, and the entirety of the city’s forces came together to defend against a destruction that would have leveled the continent.

The Triumvirate (Lathander the Dragonlord Dragonrider paladin and his bonded silver dragon Lapis, Phoebe the druid of sacrifice, and Azriel the Great Old One warlock) fought hard and nearly died, but eventually emerged victorious. Lathander piloted the Colossus to face Sydon’s initial assault head-on, while Azriel turned the tide of battle with a Dominate spell and Phoebe got the killing blow against Sydon’s source of power.

Now at level 15, we still have one more arc to go before ensuring Thylea’s continual safety, but until then, our characters get a well-deserved 5 year rest period to rebuild and grow away from the constant threat of death-by-titan. 😮‍💨

Selected pieces from this year!

I spent a lot of time thinking about Dragon Age earlier this spring (what with an Inquisition replay while I was recovering from top surgery & my ongoing/languishing Veilguard longfic.) I even drew some chibis and turned them into keychains/acrylic standees!

I had a lot of fun drawing for Artfight this year, though I definitely got lazy with the compositions and mostly stuck to headshots. Next year I want to work harder on posing and draw more busts/halfbodies.

The late summer and fall brought me back around to my Good Omens phase, including some bookbinding—and designing a cover and typeset for my own fic!

And of course throughout the year I’ve been drawing lots of Lathander and characters from the DnD campaign I’m currently running. There are so many scenes from our recent sessions that I want to put to paper soon!

Thanks everyone for following along and supporting me. Your reblogs, likes, and comments in the tags are always noticed and very appreciated. Here’s to another year of growth ♥️

Fellas is it gay to give your squishy wizard friend one of a matching set of rings and use it to cast Warding Bond on him without telling him because you’re experiencing the first crush of your life and have no idea how to talk about it? 🥰

Here’s part of my gift for @brainrotbiologist for the 2025 Nice & Accurate Atelier holiday exchange! It’s a scene from As We Watch the Rain, a short and sweet PWP fic—check it out! 🌧️
