Hey #PortfolioDay!
I’m Eren, fantasy illustrator and character artist. I’m interested in working in TTRPGs, TCGs, games and book covers.
I have done character design and illustration work for Critical Role and other AP shows.
Thank you!🙏

Illustration of Critical Role’s Caduceus Clay and Mollymauk Tealeaf with art nouveau influences.

An illustration re-interpreting the painting “Call to Arms” by Leighton. Jester and Fjord are leaving an elegant building after getting married, followed by Caleb, Essek, Beau, Yasha, Caduceus and Veth, as Kingsley stops them on the steps, seemingly telling them about something important and pointing to the side.
He’s asking them to join on a new adventure or maybe fight an incoming danger.
All of the Mighty Nein are dressed in very fancy clothing, Jester has a beautiful white gown with pink embroidery. Every’s face is either shocked or excited.

In the background, we see various buildings, one showing the “Lavish Chateau” sign.
Many NPC, guest characters and easter eggs are hidden in the image.
