another year of art fight is upon us. come attack me!

[slcknasty]

i've somehow not posted about this here yet but it's time to do some SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION and talk about The Relevant Party!

the relevant party is a web novel based on one of the first ever dnd campaigns i was in; a game that came to an untimely end a few years ago. written and edited by my partner and i, it features dashing heroes (citation needed), dastardly villains (maybe) and many many puns (definitely). it also includes character art and illustrations by yours truly!

the first two parts, comprising 26 chapters, are up to read now! with the start of part 3 coming soon, now is a great time to start reading.

go ahead and check it out!

tis the season! i'm gonna try and take it reasonably easy this year, but i look forward to getting to draw some fun new characters.

come attack me!

biting down on the lead, a bright and terrible red you think in numbers and only talk in fonts

i've been percolating this idea in my head for AGES and finally got around to executing it. very pleased with how it turned out!

sybil inswood... my weird creepy programmergirl beloved...

rough warmup doodle turned into a quintus, as things often do. maybe before his embrace?

[slcknasty]

doodle of mercy-is-the-golden-chain i did during a session! she meditated in the quarters of a witch and saw... much of the same, honestly. brain full of worms, this gal

i don't normally do redraws of old stuff, but i thought it would be fun to go back to this drawing i did in 2017 and have another shot at it! drawn in the same program i used for the og (the oekaki feature on chicken smoothie), featuring one of my oldest ocs, joni.

[slcknasty]

soooo i joined a heart: the city beneath game and i'm really enjoying it so far.

here's my pc, mercy-is-the-golden-chain! an aelfir incarnadine, driven slightly off the rails by the parasite from the heart that's taken root in her brain. she's fine she's chill i promise

[slcknasty]

forgot i never posted this here oops. behold my labour of love and many months' procrastination: a poster i made as a sendoff for my dnd game!

[slcknasty]

birthday girl... happy fifth birthday to my beloved dnd character ash! it has been so long since i last drew her. i missed her

[slcknasty]

The grabbing hands grab all they can All for themselves, after all

kim hye-seong nobody is doing it like you...

i got prompted a while back to draw an outfit swapped quintus, was going to draw him in his sire or coterie mate's clothes, and then latched onto the idea of quintus in a dress and forgot the original prompt. i think he looks great regardless

[slcknasty]

another vampire!! this is easton... she's a hecata, she lives in a basement and she smells bad. that's basically all you need to know.

she works as a mortuary assistant during the night, and takes care of body disposal and acquisition for the family... also during the night. she takes a very pragmatic approach to the "family business" - death is just part of the job, after all.

[slcknasty]

several years after i finished it, finally posting my piece for the gallery noir's world of darkness hallowzine! have you checked out the zine yet? did it pass you by? this is your sign to go take a look.

this image is so huge that i suspect tumblr will chew up the file size, but the zine post links to a drive with full-size pages so you can see them in all their glory!

[slcknasty]

meanwhile...

i drew this way back after a discussion with a friend of mine about increasingly obscure mikus.

lord melancholy, grief knight.

the paragon i'm playing in a die rpg game! you may remember ellis, sad goth teenager - this is the character she embodies in the world of die. an eight foot tall, incredibly imposing knight, who speaks in a voice as deep as a crypt and clanks with every step. is there anything inside the armour? who knows!!
