Hello #PortfolioDay!
I'm Gabriel, digital artist painting OCs and fan art with dark fantasy themes, inspired by symbolism, space, religious iconography, and the Tarot.

✉ [email protected]
🖼 eralacrimae.carrd.co

A portrait in colour of Director Krennic standing in front of his creation, the Death Star, with its targeting systems right behind his head. His hands are clasped together, with his pistol in his left hand. Behind him orange light and dust is coming forward, spilling into the foreground, covering him partially. Behind all of it is the dark starry sky.

A colourful painting of Corvus Corax in his simpler armour with raven skulls on his belts around his waist. He has his right hand on his heart, and in his left hand he holds a whip that seemingly melts into darkness along with the ends of his robes. Red glowing embers are surrounding him, painting his feathery cloak and the feathers of his large wings a red light. The planet of Kiavahr is behind his head as a red halo, and above it is Deliverance.

A coloured painting of my OC Xander, a pale man with long, dark hair, tattoos, and jewelry, sitting on an ornate brown-gold throne. He is wearing a golden draping over one of his shoulders, leaving the majority of his torso visible, along with a deep red draping on his lower body. His tattoos on his arms are visible, with dark fiery motifs, a skull with a parchment coming from its upper jaw, and the astrological symbols of Mars, Jupiter, and the Sun, the rulers of the Zodiac signs Aries, Sagittarius, and Leo, on his arm that he is resting on the armrest of the throne, with his hand facing us. He is wearing golden jewelry: two collars on his neck and three on each of his upper arms, and he is wearing nipple piercings with golden chains on his upper body. Behind his throne a segment of a simple wall is visible on the lower half of the painting, and on the upper half of the painting there are mountains and a blue sky with clouds above the wall. The back of his throne is like a gateway to the darkness of space, it is pitch black with small glowing stars seemingly coming out of it. He is slightly turning towards the side, and his eyes are covered with a whisp of yellowish flare that appear to connect him to the Sun behind his head.

A black-and-white painting of my OC Xander, a man in water up to his waist, approaching towards the viewer. His eyes are not visible, black liquid is pouring out from the place where his eyes should be. He has long dark hair that he shoves back, the sides of his head are shaved and tattooed, and he has several dark flame tattoos down his neck, shoulder and arms, along with a motif of a parchment and a skull holding a parchment with text on his left shoulder. Ports are visible on his body throughout (he is a Space Marine OC). The dark liquid from his eyes have accumulated behind him as he's approaching, and with his hand he seems to direct its flow forward, too. Behind him is a black hole enclosed in an armillary sphere with ornate rings. The front, horizontal ring has the Roman numerals XVI, XVII and XVIIII on it, there are two rings very tightly closing up the black hole, and two outer, concentric rings. The uppermost ring has the texts "XVI - LA MAISON|DIEV", "XVII - L'ESTOILLE" and "XVIIII - LE SOLEIL" on it, along with the alchemical symbols of sulphur, the element of fire, and the Sun, as well as the symbols of the following in pairs: the Sun - the zodiac sign of Leo, Jupiter - Sagittarius, Mars - Aries. The lower part of the rings is lit strongly. On the upper part of the painting, above the rings, the distortion of the black hole is visible on the background stars and interstellar medium as their images get "flattened" around the curved surface of the outermost ring.

Viktor | The Crown of Jarajakti on Kickstarter @navypink.itch.io · 8h

Hello #PortfolioDay, I'm a writer and artist from Poland working on adventures for my #ttrpg setting ✨
I love drawing elves, queer people, and overly complicated fashion 🌈

Back my latest adventure on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/161...

An illustration of an elf sat upon an elaborate throne held up by two statues of succubi in a throne room resembling a medieval cathedral. He has white skin and hair, with some parts of his skin being covered in golden scales and others being black with golden veins. He has three pairs of mismatched horns on his head. He wears black and white robes with golden jewelry. Beside the throne are two other characters: a red-haired elf with a scarred face and a tiefling in heavy armor wielding a zweihander sword.

A full-body illustration of a floating lich. He wears a robe crafted from the hide of a blue dragon, a crown of horns, and golden jewelry. Lightning strikes in the background.

An illustration of an elf perched atop a tree branch at night. Her eyes shine the same silver glow as the moon behind her. She has an additional pair of arms hidden behind her in the shadows. She wears South Asian-inspired clothing and jewelry. She carries a curved sword.

Cropped illustration of a succubus demon. She has purple skin, black and white hair, and golden eyes with black sclerae. Her face is smeared with red blood.

Look at Rawan go. She's learning about clotting and bleeding- two pillars of lifesaving emergency medicine. She is an asset to her family and her community. Her family and community need her. Please donate if you can. On top of continuing her education she now needs blankets and winter clothing.

Despite the bombing and difficult circumstances,I still cling to science.Yesterday, I explained how bleeding occurs,and today I am learning more so that I may one day be able to save lives،I will keep going no matter the pain.With your support,I can continue on my path toward my dream.🫂
