* If you are new to the subreddit, **please check the Subreddit Wiki**, especially the Resource Guides section, the FAQ, and the Glossary of Terms. Many newcomers to the game and to r/DnD can find answers there. Note that these links may not work on mobile apps, so you may need to briefly browse the subreddit directly through Reddit.com.

​

The purpose of this thread is for artists to share their work with the intent of finding clients, and for other members of the community to find and commission artists for custom artwork.

First version of “Dreadful Appearance” feature of Sorrow Knight subclass allowed you to teleport 30ft instead of movement at will. Not that strong, but cool and useful. And when it was erratad to only work on Tactical Shift.

As they said it was always the intent, but they saw a reaction on release, maybe, just maybe they should've keep the feature as is, or even better - allow it to use part of your movement to teleport instead of full movement or something? But nope.

How long we waited for CME to be nerfed, weeks? Couple months? Martial nerf was ready in several hours!

I put this in 5e because this edition specifically helped me make friendships with straight men, which is something I struggled with for the first 20 years of my life. Growing up, I'm not saying this is what happened, but it FELT like my voice and my mannerisms alienated me from all straight men. I made this mass assumption that all men had this masculinity counter in their head, and my presence would bring the group average down.

But then I played D&D for the first time, and I was surprised to see these guys encouraging me to "be weird" and playing characters that were so different from themselves. It was the first group of straight male friends that I've ever felt like I wasn't a charity case or held at arms length.

Do you think this was a coincidence, or do you think something about D&D helps people connect in important ways they otherwise wouldn't? Do you think it's a 5e phenomenon?

EDIT: It's become clear that some people know exactly what I mean and some people are absolutely baffled by the notion. Let's all approach it with curiosity lest the mindflayers get what they wanted the whole time.

I recently finished this commission for a returning client.

Arwan is an Orc Ranger/Beastmaster accompanied by Thistle, a clouded leopard.

The brief called for an action pose with Arwan charging into battle while Thistle pounces alongside him.

I had a lot of fun working on the contrast between Arwan's natural equipment and Thistle's magical silver glow.

Really happy with how this one came together.

[oc] Last week I posted the Berserker version; this is an illustration of her at the moment she left the Icewind Dale mansion. I hope you like it.

This illustration depicts Saara, the warrior who escaped captivity in a remote Icewind Dale mansion, now traversing the unforgiving Shadar Desert. Still carrying her powerful weapon forged from pure bronze, she braves the heat, the sand, and the mysteries hidden within the vast dunes.

My example is an artificer that is an awaken tree (warforge) whose steel defender is a wooden carved bear and their spells are flowers and plants.

Curious to hear other takes.

Hello, everyone! Thank you for looking at my work!

This one took a long time for me to finish, to ne honest i'm not as happy with it. Because i have moved past the phase of describing everything in excruciating detail. Texture work and volume, have become much easier for me to portray.

Anyway the character's name is Esme, a human wizard, that specializes in weather manipulation. of course the inspiration for the character, is storm from x-men. The character's player, was not very explicit on backstory details, but they did mention that she comes from a rich family, so the quality of the clothing should reflect that.

Thank you again for your attention!

Right now i'm accepting commissions so if you're interested send a dm my way!

Hi, i'm back with another character idea i had recently.
Monks based around the world of ATLA are not the most original, i know, but i think what's important is execution, and i think this passes that check.
My first inspiration was the great wave off kanagawa, which i wanted to include in to the composition, because i thought that there is nothing cooler than a Monk surfing the waves to punch their enemies! putting all that in to a circle encases the figure of the monk pretty well and makes him pop off.
I don't have a name for him yet, but some suggestions would be gladly accepted! hope you liked the art!

Whenever an encounter happens and it’s time to roll initiative I know have 4 players immediately announcing their rolls at disjointed times and I’m now fumbling trying to roll my monsters initiative as well.
I’m playing with newer players as well so I get the base roll then the question “what do I add to this again?”

It’s chaotic and overwhelming. Any dm tips for making this more streamlined?

I was recently approached by a player to paint their party, and this is one of the characters from the group. I enjoyed rendering the armor, as it’s one of my favorite things to paint. Below is a brief description of their backstory, personality, and appearance that they provided:

Jake is a happy go lucky young man. His mother is a Shadar-kai songstress from an island nation and his father is a Human barbarian from the waists. He inherited his Shadar-kai appearance from his mother and his large build and short red hair from his father.
He has a friendly appearance and tries to make friends with everyone. He currently wears full plate and carries a great sword.

There are four more characters from the group that I am almost done with, and I may post them here soon as well.
