Been experimenting with a different approach to drawing and thought it was the perfect chance to celebrate one of my favorite deluxe skins - Nekros Irkalla :D (Timelapse on side tumblr)

I had art plans for the weekend, but a BSOD wiped some progress and took my motivation with it - so here’s some Envoy art I did earlier for practice instead.

Little promotional picture I did for a tennocon digital pack giveaway I am hosting on Twitter/X (Link under the cut for people that want to join) Tried to do something quick while adding a little something fancy with the brushstrokes :D

Amir, Fables and Frontiers Edition ⚡ Rekindling my love for one of my favorite brushes I hadn’t used in a while :D

I haven’t posted anything guildwars2 in ages, so here’s a portrait of my Revenant that I’ve been using as a warm-up/practice piece over the past few weeks!

One more big project before diving back into the fun portraits :D Huge thanks to DE for supplying me with this incredible skin and so many other cool things for this update—I fell in love with it instantly! Decided to base this on an older Gyre painting I did in 2023. Timelapse (1min) on my side blog Timelapse (10 mins) on youtube

Minerva, now with fun experimental shading and color!

Been wanting to do something like that with Amir in the past, but aint nobody had time. Now I made up some dye channels & can easily swap them around. If anyone's interested, send me a chart (like the one on the top right), and I might post more variations :)

Been a while since I tackled lineart, so why not some happy Minerva?

Another attempt at adding more detail to the brushy style, this time featuring none other than Lavo Prime (and his trusty Cedo)! This took about five times longer than my usual portraits—the things I do for... science :D Link to timelapse on my sketch blog

One week of nonstop work boiled down to 30 seconds!

Even tho it came from a stressful place, this was an extremely pleasant experience thanks to you guys 💙

"As long as a spark of magic remains inside me, I'll do everything I can to reduce these demons to slag!"

When that rift split open and spilled those horrors into the realm, I knew I couldn't hold back. Magic surging inside me, I leapt into action. With raging fire and lightning, claw and sword, I burned them from the face of Tyria.

I won't let monsters like them take root in my home.

An absolutely amazing commission I got from @zlideart. I am over the moon about this, it turned out so so well!!! I've been staring at it all day ;3;

"Howdy folks, this is Monday vibes checkpoint! You have to accept a smile and some good vibes for the start of your week!"

Really handsome artistic freedom commission from @zlideart . Really like how my derpy boy turned out.

I wasn't sure if I could fill the slots but I actually have to close this now. I may sound like a broken record but thank you everyone so much! I hope you all have a great week 💙 I am beyond grateful for everyone that already got in touch or shared this💙 I will have to put a soft break here as I won't be able to tackle new comms within the 72h period - If that's okay with you feel free to still reach out! Taking emergency portrait commissions until the end of the week to cover unexpected expenses. - via Email (zlide.de@gmail.com) - Send character ref, preferred color & mood - Any franchise / NO real life people - Only commission if you’re familiar with the process (more below)

A Skeb-like / 'Surprise me' commission means no communication or revisions after the initial request. You provide a description, and I handle the rest (pose, lighting, angle, etc.)—final and as-is. Basically, this is the 'dude, trust me' of commissions

[zlideart]

I love your art! Are you on Bluesky?

Thank you!💙

Yes, you can find me there as zlide (zlide.bsky.social)!
