"Calen Lu-reen Aseir"

Calen was originally going to be a D&D character for a future campaign, but after a while I abandoned the idea. However, by the time I changed my mind, I'd come up with a lot of concepts that it would have been a shame to throw away. As I decided to work on character design and clothing variations for my next project, I decided to use him as a model.

"Welcome Home."

First real attempt at Japanese Poster color, with still a bit of watercolor to fill in the background. The final drawing is really big : it's a Royal format.

It's been a while since I upload something in this blog, but I am currently working on a big painting that should be over in a few weeks.

Until then, I can post a few research doodles I'm proud of.

3D model - Kimo, the manticore cub

I wanted to do this for a while: I've finally started using Blender, and I've modeled a 3D version of the baby manticore I created a while back. For some reason, the rigging doesn't work, even after retopologizing the mesh. I'm hoping to fix that issue, so I could 3D print it for an RPG tabletop game.

“Darumas nest"

I recently received Poster Color paint and I decided to make a little sketch to test how it works.

A few pages of my sketchbook of research on mineralogy, and how to draw specific rock types.

My Japan trip sketchbook (terrible quality again, watercolors are a nightmare to get in picture).

"Double (triple ?) date on Source"

My entry to the Haven 2024 contest on the theme: "Date night on Source". I didn't win but I still like the result I got with the colors

edit : holy shit the quality is good for once ?!

"And the universe said Goodbye."

Warning : spoilers for the game OuterWilds.

God, I'm glad I had time to do a painting for the mind-blowing experience that was OuterWilds before drowning myself for the next 6 months of my life in Baldur's Gate III.

SWORDTEMBER DAY 19 : ALCHEMIST

The Alchemist’s Last Laugh , of tempered glass and folded smoke 🧪☁️ “Your hands were sweating. What did they say, what did they say? You racked your mind for the conversation you had with The Alchemist just a few days earlier. You were so distracted at the time - their many eyes, the way they moved in a scuttle of fingers and arms under beautiful fabric. They had told you about each of their potions, was it this one? You pulled out a thin blue bottle from your bag - no, no this was a fireproofing one. At the edge of the trees, the shadows stepped closer, a low growling, the flash of moonlight on teeth. This one? It was a spiral shaped bottle, with a pale purple liquid. You remembered The Alchemists laugh as they told you about the purple liquid, like brittle bones, or dominoes knocking each other down. But what did it do? No time to risk it. You saw a clawed paw step forward into the glade, a snarling maw and raised hackles, your heart sunk in your chest. You reached one more time into your bag, and brought out a fat, green bottle. It was filled with a rich, green fluid, and swirling patterns were curved into the glass. You heard The Alchemist’s laugh again in the back of your mind, and found yourself smiling. You remember clearly what they had said about this bottle. ‘Don’t drink this one.’”

This is a sister sword to The Alchemists Last Resort from last year! It was one of my least faves, and I wanted to give it another go! Happy with how it turned out :3

Yesterday’s sword!
