I Started Playing DnD With My Friends. I’m A Noob, But I’m A Noob That Can Draw, So Of Course I Made

Jay.

A character I did in Illustrator for class almost a month ago. (Although I first drew up his design last year) It was my first time using illustrator so I touched it up in Photoshop before I posted this hehe. Also, new logo 😁 

Azula in Robes

I’m sure we can all agree that she was totally crazy psycho, but that she was also crazy hot.

During the war and after.

Oliver, my original character for FE:A. I imagined him as Stahl’s son with Cordelia 😁 He would be Severa’s much younger brother who arrived in the past much earlier than even Laurent and ends up catching up to just short of Lucina’s age. Making him practically unrecognizeable to even his sister. He’s very affectionate. He also idolizes both his parents 😊

Unfinished Portrait of Nikolai II

Nikolai II's abdication from the throne took place one day after his coronation as Emperor in the 18th century.  Due to his abdication to give way to his elder sister, Empress Natasha the Great, Nikolai’s portrait as the fifth Emperor of the Tvardovsky Dynasty was never completed.

Please note that this is an original character. My character Nikolai Tvardovsky is in no way related to Russia’s Nikolai II. Any direct resemblance to real life people are coincidental.

One of the frames I did of Cloé for an animation exercise in class a month or two ago.

Part 2/6 - Adapting a Classic (Style)

        Part 1 - The Family | 3 - The Sicilian Assassins | 4 - Buttercup and Westley | 5 - The Prince and the Count | 6 - Florin Castle

One of the ideas behind this project was about bridging the gap between the old and the new. I wanted to express the vibrance and colourful quality of a medieval (nearing renaissance) setting while using contemporary techniques, to appeal to a modern audience, with a nostalgic undertone.

Adding some browns to the palette also helped pushed it towards that slightly nostalgic direction. I shifted the other colours slightly, like using mustard or yellow-orange instead of just yellow, vermillion instead of just orange, and throwing in some violets, all to add that dash of quirky-ness to reflect the fun and witty tone of both the movie and the book.

Another idea is that this version would be a series. This gives us time and opportunity to see and experience the characters' past, like in the book.

I was figuring out how light would interact with the characters while pushing the role of line. I did studies on how to make a line express form, colour, and light. From afar, the line can be reflected light, but up close the "line" expressing reflected light would spread in a stylized manner. This creates the feeling of an increase of detail when we look at something up close all while strengthening the colourful quality of the project throughout.

Coffee shop sketch dump

Drew these various drawings on various days throughout the past few months.

Setanta Mahariel, Hero of Ferelden.

I’ve played as a Male Cousland for around three playthroughs of DA: O, but in light of DA: I reveals, the irony of a Dalish Elf having Mythal Vallaslin is just an opportunity that couldn’t be passed up.

SPOILER ALERT

Imagine the hilarity of a Mahariel Warden-Morrigan reunion after the events of Inquisition, wherein Morrigan drank from the well. So many possible scenarios.

“If anyone were to appreciate this situation, it would be your mother." “I can almost hear your mother laughing. Do the voices agree?" “Considering I tried to kill her, I guess we're pretty crappy servants.” “I tried killing one of my people’s gods... I make a bad elf.” “I should be called old god slayer!" “Talk about a controlling in-law…”

(also, I can’t decide between green or brown eyes. He had green eyes in my playthrough but Kieran has brown)

Harvey Variations

Mechanic and on-field spy outfits for his new storyline. See more variations of Harvey here

This is Suzy, a gay silk cloth Acrobat (although in this original sketch, he is a tight rope walker) who dreams of becoming a ballerina but can’t because he’s a chubby cross-dressing drag queen. So instead he’s in a travelling circus, where he can be himself and be a “flying ballerina” all at the same time.

He is my entry for this month’s Character Design Challenge, this is my initial sketch of him as a tight rope walker.

Suzy was initially supposed to be a tight rope walker who would dance like the beautiful ballerina he dreamt of becoming, but I realised that as a silk cloth acrobat, the silk cloth could serve as his cape. Instead of wearing the cape himself if he were a tight rope walker, a symbolism for wings and flight, it is the silk cloth that gives him his wings and his ability to fly. This would serve as his connection with the Circus and how the Traveling Circus, his family who accepts him and loves him for who he is, is what helps him accept himself and inspires him to be more than just his initial dream of becoming a ballerina. So he happily chooses to stay in the Traveling Circus and performs his act “The Flying Ballerina.”
