I dont usually make Potrait art, however i do hope i make a decent one with this, he's a Tav from BG3 universe. Other than his obvious heterochromia eyes, one of his unique feature is he got this special horn that ingrate with golden color within.

Sadly, I don't really know his backstory as my client doesnt tell me about it. But regardless, i hope you you guys enjoy the artwork as much as i enjoy making him

Cheers!

Commission completed for HawkkVince earlier this year, capturing his party’s final stand against Auril the Frostmaiden in their Icewind Dale campaign.

I wanted this scene to feel desperate and larger than life — divine winter raging across the battlefield, ice splintering underfoot, and a party battered but unyielding as they face a goddess of endless frost. Every spell cast and blade swung carries the weight of survival in a land that never forgives.

Huge thanks to HawkkVince for trusting me with such a climactic moment from his table. Scenes like this are why we love D&D — impossible odds, raw emotion, and legends forged in the cold.

Recent private commission for a client who wanted their sorceress painted as a portrait rather than an action scene. I enjoyed working with the amount of creative freedom I was given, especially exploring mood and subtle magic. The blue-heavy palette was a challenge, but it helped reinforce the calm, controlled nature of her power.

Digital painting in Photoshop, with a painterly focus.

As a player and a very, very new DM, players can be a bit…dense. For today, let’s put that aside. I wanna talk about the clever things players at your table have done that sent you for a loop.

In corrosive corridors
A caustic Queen is concealed
Cave citizens she commands
Captives to carve and combust
Calcite-chained and chore-clocked
Cultists to cut her coronal cage

Some sunless horizon sliced
Containment cracked
To cross over to her craving
A stoneless construction
Of ceaseless counting
Above cytotoxic clouds
Conjured copper oxide citadel
Crackling continuous ciphers
Churning magnetic markets
Scrolls selling scripts to sigils
Cascading incorporeal coins
Circulating in a fleshless void
A creatureless closed loop court

Caring not for this ant cave
Culled chisels in a buried cathedral
She swings stochastic scale saber
Summoning contagious caskets
Sinister spores in structural seams
Self-assembling cursed colonies
Creaking open

Out crawl clockwork carcasses
Cruel psychological contraptions
Contaminating the continent
Cleaving castles skins skyward
A carving cone of fomenting cold
Crystalizing in a cloudkill crown
Cannibalizing all that is concrete
With carnivorous calculation

She spans sum surface sulfuric
A seething cosmic clot congealing
To collect her incomprehensible
Curated kingdom of corruptions

The other day I casted message with subtle spell and one of the players at the table said that because it is specified in the description of the spell and not in the components list I still had to whisper (aka open and close my mouth) and point my finger, what do you guys think?

We were recently able to commission an artwork of our long term party (currently level 18), Ioun’s Tempest, by the incredible Gee Francis (@geefrancis.art on instagram) and we absolutely love it so I thought I’d share it here.

Going clockwise the far right we have Clifford who is a Bullywug Transmutation Wizard, then his best friend Connor who is a Halfling Battle Master Fighter. Then we have Cralamir, a Half-Elf Oath of the Watchers Paladin and Sarah, a Human Cobalt Soul Monk with her familiar Echo, and on the end of the front row is Auraelia who is a Water Genasi Tempest Cleric/Storm Sorcerer. Behind her is Tess, a Wildfire Druid/Horizon Walker Ranger with her animal companion Jeremy flying overhead. Last but far from least we have Catha, our Loxodon Moon Domain Cleric.

in the next part of my campaign the players are going to be traveling to a haunted forest where e they are going to be encountering more mythical animals and monsters. one of the ideas I am planning on including is that there are elf's in the forest who used to live in the entire surrounding aera and the forest used to cover the entire continent. but as the shorter lived races like halflings, dwarves and humans expanded the forest got smaller and the elf's were pushed from the surrounding area so they were forced to either integrate with society or live in the pockets of the great forests that still stand. (I only came up with this after my players chose their races, and none of them were elf's so I'm not limiting character choices) but I'm worried that the entire premise might fall under some bad stereotypes about natives, like the "noble savage" or others. the most simplistic piece of advice I saw was to just write 3 dimensional characters and don't make the groups a monolith. I was already planning on doing that so does anyone have advice on things to look out for or should I scrap the idea entirely. (also I would like to add that there are still magical creatures in the world so its not like the rest of the places are bland and boring, just that these forests have more of them and many couple homebrew ones)
