A character sheet commission of the client’s Dragonborn monk, Vezged! The client didn’t outright SAY that Vezged needed a foot-long lavender tongue, but I decided it was a necessary design detail because he’s based on a komodo dragon and their tongues are cool-looking. (The client did, however, specify which exact kitty-ear headphones Vezged should be sporting.)

Yami and Yugi! I’ve wanted to make a papercraft featuring both of them together for a while, and finally got the chance to sit down and do it. ^_^ Time to bust out the hieroglyph-patterned and shimmery gold papers once again!

This piece sold at the con this past weekend! I was really excited since I wasn’t sure there would be anybody there who knew Yugioh!

[yutaan]

Character sheet commission of Champ (full name Champagne Mangoes, pronounced like in the old Vine) the elven mage, with some of his various accoutrements! (I especially like the spell-popper down in the left corner, which is releasing a few sparkly animal shapes connected to a polymorph spell.) I’ve drawn Champ several times before, and he’s always a delight. It’s fun to get to revisit characters as their designs shift to reflect how they’ve changed and grown through the campaign! ^_^

Chibi commission of the client’s friend’s character, a zaju performer! I had so much fun looking through reference photos of different performances, as the costumes for zaju theater are incredibly beautiful and detailed. But because of all that detail, I was a little worried about simplifying one enough to fit a chibi while still keeping that lush, elaborate feel! The outfit was most heavily based on a particular production of “Mulan.”

A flat-color commission of the client’s Dragonborn geologist (plus a feathery friend)! I had a lot of fun with the big, chunky shapes in her outfit combined with the delicate little steampunk-esque details - she stays a total fashion-plate as she investigates the natural world!

Shaded commission of the client's Dragonborn monk character Vezged, featured here with his orc husband Dolmen and their goblin daughter Brida!

I have a lot of fun with multi-figure, high-energy, battle-ready poses like this. Even better when it's a family! The family that slays together stays together and other well-known words of wisdom, etc etc.

I can't believe I have to ask this with my own mouth and type this with my own two hands but.... will you ever drop the rita+dio heights 👀?!?!? Honestly I'm jk because they have that mechafiction thing going on so it's nice to leave it up to imagination but I'm just tickled pink the way you refer to him as tiny or 'comparatively' small. Rather than an actual height, is Dio small compared to the average person or just his super cool and adoring, amazing and loving tall gf Rita? From the mash up drawings I've seen, Dio is always the smallest person on the page :3 I love a confident little man in charge so I adore Dio and Rita and their dynamic <3 The caption about him being in distress because his gf was out of shot in distress had me cracking up lolol

Darlingest anon I cackled SO hard when I got this ask; thank you for being interested in my motorcycle kids!! And you are in luck: Even though I usually don’t get too fussed about how tall characters are, this is the one project I have where I did work out out everybody's heights. If you don't want to know exact answers, I'll just say that Dio is, in fact, Tiny specifically when compared to Rita. He's of pretty average height! Even a little taller than average! She's just QUITE tall.

And if you do want the exact measurements, Dio is 5'5 (and a half)! Rita is 6’3 in her bio body and 6’4 in her mechanical proxy body so next to her he simply looks like a bean rather than a beanpole. AND the rest of the main cast actually ALSO skews quite tall so he just… appears short most of the time. He doesn’t mind! It's rad! His girlfriend is tall and amazing and can lift him up with one arm and he is THRILLED about it.

Rita and Dio are in their late teens in the main part of the story, so it’s possible they both could still grow slightly? They’ve pretty much reached their full adult heights, though; it would be a very minor difference.

Papercraft commission of @artofmarylarson‘s character, Makoa! I just love his design, especially that pop of bright orange and yellow on his prosthetic tail fin. 

[yutaan]

Mermay reblog! I remember really struggling with that watery vellum shape, but Makoa was worth the extra work. :D
