Long post here, since I haven't posted to this site in a while. I mostly want my space here to post the same drawings I usually do but with a bit more description and some world building (?) I want to try at least, even if I end up sounding insane. I don't do these for twitter since A: I'm not paying money to an egomaniac with a cult-like following who produces finger-slaying vehicles just to make longer posts and B: The amount of followers I have on twitter still makes me nervous to be quite honest and posting on here I at least feel a bit more comfortable doing so.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Design of Crowe's main outfit which I keep changing because I am indecisive, and painfully so... I like how this came out a lot! So I don't really plan on changing it soon. These clothes were made by her best friend Honeydew who has been making clothes for many of the forest harpies over the years.

This is a redesign of an older character named Morningstar. Zombies and the undead need to be bound to a necromancer or a strong catalyst, she is one of the few successful "Living" zombies created by deep sea necromancers. The octopus like growth IS Morningstar, the body it's attached to used to be called Princess Serena. The last drawing of her old design is below, I ended up not liking the ball on chain for the leg and moved it to the arm instead.

When I posted this drawing to twitter I noticed an error on it and ended up fixing it but never reposted it and I still wont, so the fixed version will just be here.

Poison Elves - the most dangerous of the three kinds of forest elf to be around. They are not malicious by nature but they are constantly producing powerful toxins from their bodies mainly through their saliva. The parts of the forest they call home are full of poison springs and swamps, while deadly spores plague the air. Most of what's known about them is limited and many who live outside the great forest don't know of their existence.

I redesigned a couple of old characters, which started with Morningstar, and now to a character named Silver. you can see her old design up above the poison elf drawing.

Assassin Silver - A former goblin prisoner now a blade for hire. During a war with the kingdom of meadow elves many elves were captured and "fed" large amounts of mana to forcefully and rapidly grow their horns which are then cut off and turned into weapons. These weapons would effortlessly pierce and cut through a meadow elf's magic armor. The meadow elves would soon outfit and train their knights to fight in heavy plate armor.

The final redesign drawing I have done for now with the old designs at the bottom

Sisters of the Library - Cecil and Cecilia. Cecil is the (very) tall, younger sister and is the assistant to the (shorter) eldest sister Cecilia who is the head librarian of Azalea's Library in the great forest region.

Recent Drawings minus one - Iron Witch Ivy, Goblin Warrior Diora, and doodles of an older man with long nose, man who was dead and is no longer dead, and a young cultist. Recovered from feeling exhausted with many things... I have been enjoying good sleep lately which is both a shock and fantastic since I have powerful insomnia :)

Recent stuff after escaping perfectionist hell. I feel happier and free and feel like I can finish drawings again not worrying about lineart so damn much :) Right side picture is a redesign of a character named Iris from March!

Hazel in her room

Have not drawn in a while since Baldur's gate 3 has a death grip on me... this is my first try at something that isn't a character in the void+platform combo that I like to do and I hope to get better for future works :)

[gimli34]

Summer outfit sketches of the Explorer party - Honeydew, Crowe and Hazel! I wanted to try making summer outfits since I have never really tried to for my characters ever. I hopefully will finish a bigger summer related drawing of these 3

Honeydew's hat I made to be similar to the poison elves mushroom hats (She lost her old mushroom hat). Crowe cannot swim so she wears the floaties at all times on the beach while bringing around her inner tube, always making sure not to pop it. Hazel does not like to wear bikinis or other things like that so she just wears a wet-suit with shorts.

I have been experimenting again with my harpies anatomy (mostly the legs this time) so Crowe looks different again but I like how she looks for now :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

All three of them separated below - hopefully these pictures are not painfully blurry (if they are, oopsie)

Elderwood Alchemy Association - Crowe

Crowe studied at the guild for 10 years as she was interested in the craft. She has a hand along with others in making medicine for the forest harpy tribe and is one of the few forest dwellers who travel outside the Great Forest to trade with other nearby Elf settlements.

I wanted to change how I draw Harpies anatomy a little bit so she will look a bit different :)

The shirt is modified to have MUCH larger sleeves to fit her wings through. unmodified, they are just normal sized t-shirt sleeves

Last months stuff

My harpy character Crowe

Cauldron Devotees - These 3 characters I drew at the same time which also took an agonizingly long time with the process I usually go for on my drawings and its the closest thing I've experienced to going insane :)

I drew this unnamed woman in record time even for something kind of simple like this since I changed my drawing process and it put into perspective how hard I make things for myself...

[gimli34]

This is Lucy, she is a Forest Elf from the Tree witch tribe joining Azalea's Church. She loves collecting shiny objects and treasure and is a bit of a kleptomaniac.

Hydrangea of the Iron witch Tribe. The Iron witches have a great relationship with the Goblin tribes of the Great Forest often swapping blacksmith techniques with each other. The secrets of communing with stars and the magic they grant is only known to the Iron witches and many go blind using this magic until they only see the stars.

Ninebark of the Tree witch tribe, she is one of the tribes foragers and spiritualists. She helps repair damage done to the forest and regularly travels to the other tribes of the Great Forest to trade or visit which are - the Iron witches, the poison witches, the Harpies and the Goblins. She can also commune with the forest spirits like slimes and fairies. I will not post the picture of her sister - Iris here, since I don't know the rules of this site, still it will be on the other platforms and stuff :) Iris is the restless Forest witches Shaman who passed on her knowledge to Lucy so she could uphold her duties instead of her, but she has no Idea where she ran off to.

Blacksmith Flint (Left) Knight Arkose (Middle) and Scout Marl (Left). The Goblins are known for their blacksmiths and skilled knights, and can vary wildly in their height and body shapes so many of their armors and clothing are custom made for each person and many goblins are taught how to make their own clothes and gear. A recent war was waged between the Kingdom of the Meadow Elves and the goblins. The goblins lost the war with many casualties on both sides and now many are prevented from entering major cities or settlements and many meadow elves hold hatred in their heart for their kind.

Hazel, a priestess in training who is obsessed with knowledge. She is great friends with Lucy, Maddie, and Mira. She has a fantastic memory and a bad habit of giving long winded and in depth explanations of why things are the way they are or why someone is wrong and is incredibly meticulous. She longs to become one of the Church's Librarians.

Maddie the Arrogant Prodigy, A Meadow Elf Tinkerer with other tinkerers helped further the advancements in technology in the capital city Westmourne. The city would eventually fall to Cultists and Maddie one of the few survivors would loose her right arm in the event and was rescued by the Church of Azalea. she would join later as an initiate but would also lose her passion.

Honeydew the Huntress. A Forest Elf of the Poison witch tribe who became a hunter for the Forest Harpy tribe and is best friends with the harpy Crowe. The poison elves are the most isolated of the tribes for the toxins they naturally produce. Honeydew learned to control her poisonous nature as to not harm other living beings with her presence. She loves hunting and is a fantastic tailor.

I will use this site a bit more but mostly so I can write stuff for my characters. I would love to make a game or webcomic or something, so writing this stuff is MOSTLY to help me remember and stuff :) Anxiety really controls me in a way that infuriates me to no end, but I hope posting this kind of stuff helps alleviate that a bit. I really am bad at talking to other people and just being awkward in general and it does help a bit that not too many people see my works but still It's nice people DO look at all. Drawing is fun and writing this background stuff for my characters is fun so I will always be trying to learn new stuff even if not too many people see my works (Not that I'm torn up about it, anxiety can't act up). If you took time to read my stuff, thank you truly.

Dolls created by Azalea's Church to allow those willing to continue to serve after death by binding their souls to them. The dolls are created and maintained by a Dollkeeper who lovingly carves their bodies and their intricate wooden skulls from special wood. The flesh on their faces are made from mushrooms and their eyes are made of glass.

The female dolls have a single horn to cast magic from, much like the sorcerers they were based on. The male dolls have four arms allowing them to wield many combinations of weapons at once. These dolls are normally used as guards but some assist priestesses or offer guidance to church initiates.

Wingless Gladdwol (Gladdwol the wingless?) Harpies exiled from their tribe also have their wings removed.

I wanted to remake this character since I last drew her in 2021
