Another of my wife @perseiis's Vampire the Dark Ages characters: Cydimus of Eryx.

An unclaimed caitiff, Cydimus is a former mural painter, current prostitute, a one time thief, the present consort of the Lady Nausicaä of Sicily, and above all; an avid devotee of Venus Astarte. He is perhaps the most popular little man in all the Roman Republic.

A Kikimora and Domovoi: two little Slavic deities of the hearth. The Kikimora is often troublesome (especially if the house is not kept in order). The Domovoi is protective of the family and household, especially the children and animals, unless angered or insulted. They are often said to be married to one another.

Continuing the collab with @versatilemess for our DnD Campaign’s 5th birthday:

My wife @perseiis’ character Amaranth Nerath | College of Swords Bard & Divination Wizard | She/Her

Amaranth Nerath is a Bard of skill to rival her father (Hywel), and Arcanist to rival her mother (The Wizard Treona). She has been near fatally blessed by a lost and forgotten God of Storms, and has resurrected an ancient forbidden school of magic; Vicissitude.

Her current plans are to kill her former tutor (the Hag Larysa), to acquire the fabled Harp of the White Duke, and to accrue the power and arcana necessary to kill the God of Creation and Destruction.

As always, pencilling by me and inking by @versatilemess!

Image one: A young woman is drawn face on, holding her eyes confidently on the viewer. Her skin is light brown, with a lightening scar cresting across her right shoulder and up along her face. Her bright blue eyes are framed by long lashes, and eyeliner, with little dots of silver makeup at various points across her face. She has dark brunette hair which curls around it like a cloud, dotted with pearls. She is wearing a cloak, with loose blouse and a sash belt in various shades of rich purple. The cloak is covered in stars, and various necklaces rest against the low cut blouse. Framing the piece as a whole is a very wide brimmed wizard's hat, in bluish purples, with a small tassel hanging in front.

Next in the collaboration series with @versatilemess, where we’re illustrating our party members in celebration of our DnD Campaign’s 5 year anniversary:

@versatilemess's character: Nadiya Perditus | Way of Mercy Monk & Grave Cleric | She/Her

Nadiya is the only known navigator of the Ki Stones which populate Tharz, the purpose of which she is still attempting to divine. She is also a Heartwarder of Sune, an oath sworn as she attempts to navigate the trials and tribulations of her own (recently cross-planar divorced from her wife) heart.

Her current task is to decode the Ki Scroll, an ancient manuscript whose secrets have caused enlightenment and divine madness alike.

Image one is a digital inked portrait which shows a dark skinned woman in her early 40s, facing to the left. She wears a calm, but intent, expression on her face, with notable bright red eyeliner. She wears a deep red, burgundy robe detailed with floral embroidery and coin tassels in shades of red, pale green, and copper. She wears complementary soft green jade and copper jewellery in the shape of a long set of beads on her neck, and a round coin like earring with tassels, as well as a piercing below her mouth and against her nostril. Her dark brown hair is gathered in dread locks, decorated with copper coils, and tied up with a pale green ribbon. Over her shoulder she holds a silver quarterstaff, decorated with pale green wrappings.

Image two details the original draft of the image, in graphite pencil line art against white paper.

For the five year anniversary of our DnD Campaign, @suddenlyshouting and I decided to team up and illustrate the roster of party members over the years.

Starting with Suddenly Shouting’s character: Ser Coriakin Galswynth | Draconic Sorcerer & Eldritch Knight | He/Him

Coriakin is the Patriarch and Warrior-Smith of the Draconic House Galswynth, as well as the Consort of his family’s Sovereign; the Dragon Tyrystis. Part of a Dragon worshipping ethno-religious group that has dwindled to one remaining family, Coriakin is the heir of a two thousand year old religion and dynasty that may be seeing its last days, or perhaps a renewal.

His current task is to kill his Ancestor; the Progenitor of the Dragons, the God of Creation and Destruction.

Image one is a digital inked portrait which shows a tan skinned man faces left in a regal pose, fire coming out of his mouth, a cloak of saffron yellow with a resplendent mantle of gold scales blowing, and a long sword leaning against his shoulder. He wears under this a dark teal tunic. He has long black slightly curled hair which falls past his shoulders, and his face and neck are graced with brass scales. Other notable details are his eyes with black sclera and Draconic orange pupils, a gold piercing below his mouth, and a gold earring with a circular ruby inset, and a small teal tassel which decorates his sword’s hilt.

Hello, it is I, the artist now known as Ambrose!

I know I’ve been posting less frequently on here (thanks to my disability having the audacity to be disabling), but I’m hoping to get back into the practice of it. Felt like updating my two year old meet the artist would be a good place to start! Above: new, below: old.
