A depiction of "me", trying to promote myself more :) I am holding piece of cardboard showing the socials I am on: Bluesky (here!), Artstation, Instagram, and ko-fi, with the listings of the prices I do for different art pieces (all in USD), which read: PFPs for Steam or Discord: $15 Busts (Shoulder or Waist-Up Portraits): $30 Full-Body Portraits: $60 Color +$15 "More Detail" (like an actual drawn background, or just more detailing that I would spend a lot of time on): +$25 Multiple subjects: +$30-60 per subject (depends on how many subjects and estimated time to finish, how much added detail or work goes into said piece)
art depicting Jawbone, a kholo (gnoll) fighter. Wandering Golarion after the destruction of his clan, Jawbone now sees those who he works and fights with as his new clan, whoever or whatever they may be. Jawbone is armed with a sling, a flail, and his large jaws that he was named after. He wears patchworked and scavenged armor, though it is mostly covered by the arid-climate clothing of his clan and people. A necklace of teeth hangs from his neck; A memento he made in remembrance his clan, taking the fangs from his fallen comrades to always have a piece of them with him during his travels. Jawbone fur color is similar to the common spotted hyena.
A Summoned Ghost rushes toward its target, as its Conjurer sits back to watch it work. The Background is the entrance chamber to Addamasartus, looking towards the entrance as if you were looking from the POV of Tanisie Verethi
image of a Kha'Jiit in an expensive robe and a wide brimmed hate, enjoying his vice of choice in the shade of a large pillar. He wields an Ebony Scimitar, drawn in case a cliff racer decides to ambush him. The background depicts a small camp in the distance, nestled in a valley of stone. Further beyond that is a large mountain range, where a Dwemer ruin pokes out of the earth like fingers in the snow.
this illustration depicts a woman with messy black hair and snakebite piercings in a baggy black tee
The monstrous Ludwig, the Holy Blade, holding the Moonlight Greatsword aloft as he is admiring it. He is bathed in the mesmerizing cyan light of the blade as it washes over him and his surrounding, glittering arcane energy like stars in the night sky
4 different busts of no one in particular: From top-left to bottom-right, Edér from Pillars of Eternity, a Skeleton King, an Elf (I drew elf ears and then immediately covered with with big hair, oops), and a snaggle-toothed Goblin.
Ertibby Manarose, a Rock Gnome Eldritch Knight-Errant, standing stoically with his tuning-fork Staff in hand and warhammer on his back. A tabard is worn over a chainmail hauberk, which is stained and worn at the bottom from travel. Ertibby wears a serious face, but this does not portray his warm, helpful nature
A galactic political map for my Star Wars homebrew, taking from a decent portion of various factions from Legends Canon (I am old): The High Republic, in blue, controls most of the Galactic center with staunch allies from the Galactic Civil War joining them. The Imperial Remnant, in grey, control large swathes of galactic real estate from the planets that still hold on to alliances from before the War, though its splintered by other factions who remember the atrocities of the Empire all to well. While technically under one banner, each of these Imperial bodies act independently with their own goals and motivations, sharing resources and information whenever possible or convenient. The Kingdom of Zakuul, in yellow, is a mysterious faction hailing from unknown space that is seemingly only making their presence known on the galactic stage now: Employing Force Sensitive and Lightsaber trained soldiers paired with advanced droid soldiers, the Kingdom of Zakuul appears to be a formidable power with unknown goals, means, or intentions. The Fel Dynasty, in purple, is a collection of planets that swore fealty to rebel-turned-emperor after the Empire fell. Staunchly independent, the Fel Dynasty are amenable to the Republic, but is never shy to remind them that the two are equal powers and only collaborate because The Dynasty chooses to. The Hutt Cartell, in orange, is the same as it has always been; A neutral "merchant collective" that controls a large portion of the Outer Rim. Hutt Space is a lawless, crime-ridden sector where the Hutt's word and bottom line is the only Law people should be concerned with. The Outer Rim Alliance, in green, is a group of former Republic members who are disillusioned with a single unifying galactic government. They still respect the Republic as allies, but are willing to take their freedom, and their conflict with the Hutts and Remnant, in their own hands. Pink marks independent states, such as corporate bodies or the Mandolorians
A landscape of Balmora, a Hlaalu city in the Vvardenfell region in the province of Morrowind, home of the Dunmer (dark elves). "Balmora" means "Forest of Stone" or "Stone Forest" in Dunmeris, the language of the Dunmer, as the city is nestled in the cradle of stony tor and hills, and the green of trees and shrubs. The Odai River splits the city into a Northren and Southern quarter, the former being a hotspot for trade and guilds while the latter is where a majority of the residents make their homes.
Marod Ordo, a Mandolorian warrior from Clan Ordo on the jungle moon of Dxun, in an action pose as he wields both his ancient lightsaber (looted from a Sith Tomb on Dxun) and his trusty beskad. The light from the flaming lightsaber bathes Marod in a harsh, virbrant red glow.
Divayth Fyr, Dunmer wizard of House Telvani, armed with a Ebony Staff and donned in Daedric Armor, concentrates on an Alteration spell while casting it. Is it a Levitate Spell? Perhaps Feather, or Shield?
An illustration of a fork in the road within a cavern; one path seems to slant uphill, while another descends like uneven stairs. Darkness envelopes the passages beyond whatever light illuminates the area. Two crumbling signs, written in Dwarvish, seem to direct which path goes where. If only you could read Dwarvish...
Some of my favorite Rock Pokemon! Tyranitar (Center), Crustle (Far-right), Omastar (bottom-right), Golem (bottom-left), Lileep (far-left), and the head of Onix because I ran out of room oops (upper left).
Fink, a Raidenwight (ratfolk) Shadow, emerging from the darkness with his bar mace ready for a swing. Fink is a albino Raidenwight, wearing dark, trousers and poncho. His body is powerfully built and heavily scarred; Most notably his arms and hands (smaller cuts and lacerations, most likely from not having a cross guard on his weapon) and his head (multiple large scars run along his face; a trio of ribbons left behind by a claw or clawed weapon along the left side of his face, and a singular, larger scar that runs from his forehead and down his right side, claiming his right eye. His front teeth are currently damaged and is missing close to half his left ear.)
A Long-eared/horned owl lad in a cool-tone camo hoodie, with a green/black burst behind him.

Dubious Food from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
its a grey overcast sky. Its kind of a grey blob that has a tiny tinge of blue in it. MY goal was to draw/paint "emotionally" and well. I think i at least succeeded on that front
Our "Retirement Home": Norman knocked out Arbok, Weepingbell, Magby, our starter Marshtomp, Murkrow, Tinkatuff, and Hariyama. Their time, no matter how long or short it was, will be treasured.
My Flannery team: Seeman the Huntail, Smooth the Magby, Nightwish the Murkrow, Morissette the Weepingbell, No Doubt the Slowpoke, and Sober the Marshtomp.
Brawley beaten! His funny "Gen 2" Sprite lookin all disappointed, and saying: "Whoah, wow! You made a much bigger splash than I expected!"
My Trainer Card to show off that i did, in fact, beat Roxanne for the Stone Badge :)
The new Team! Nightwish the Murkrow, Iced Earth the Snow Runt, and King Nothing the Nidoran(M) join the team!

An illustrated relief map of the Kingdom of Hyralot, the (historically) human kingdom that lies on the northern part of the continent of Aezax, and its neighboring kingdoms covered by clouds. Hyralot is bordered by the Rymestende, Ruckgrat, and Magahabir Mountains along its northeastern, southern and western borders. Hyralot boasts good farming ground, good ore, and a humid, temperate climate. Summers are warm, and more so with the humidity, but winter comes cold, humid, and with enough snow to match summer's rain. If one travels far enough north, snow is a constant even in summer. The only exception to this general rule is the Carmesi Desert; just out of reach of any storms that blow through the land, this desert isn't so much hot as it is barren, with freezing cold nights. The flora and fauna has adapted to this unique biome, however, and these adaptations help separate its self from the other deserts in the realm.
OG piece, closest to the in game sprite: No bells or whistles, just the white outline and the afterimages.
A "Pillars of Creation" inspired piece, just grabbing random brushes and colors and just going to town. In the background, behind the mass of starstuff, lies a shining pastel planetary body shining in the icy void of space. Further still are to massive anomalies share or trade energy, which was most likely inspired by an Edge of Eternities Land card art.
N, King of Team Plasma, in his iconic pose on a checkered Black/White background to harken back to those classic games.
A lone motorcycle rider, their blade at the ready, slides around to face you against the night skyline of a city whose lights outshine the stars. Took a cyberpunky vibe as inspiration because I like the vibe.

A screenshot of the final team: Gojira the Tyranitar (named after the band of the same name), Jinjer the Ursaring (named after the band of the same name), DragnForce the Kingdra (named after the band of the same name, but with character limitations), Stormrider the Zapdos (named after the song by the band Iced Earth), El Scorcho the Typhlosion (named after the song by Weezer), and Chop Suey the Heracross (named after the song by the band System of a Down). Both Jinjer and Gojira were caught in dark cave, and Chop Suey in Azalea, so a lot of this team I had since early in the game.

A depiction of a solemn man overlooking an unknown scenery before him from a cliff face. Behind him is a mountainous environment, with trees, a lake, and a dojo temple just visible in a valley between mountain peaks. A tree sways in the wind, with a full moon hanging low in the sky to witness the man's journey.
