In his final days, Nova managed to unite all of the humanoid races under one banner, to fight for their home.
He was on the front to lead one army to fight a common enemy.

For a short moment of time, Nova was the King of all the people of the Biosphere.
They all remember him as King of the sun.

Oh shit it’s #PortfolioDay
Hello, I’m Maxie, a queer autistic artist who draws OCs and loves manga and webcomics!
I mainly work with alcohol markers and washi tapes in my traditional art ^^
I rarely take commissions, but I do have other socials! linktr.ee/Maxieverse.art

A digital half body artwork of my OC, Adara. She stands triumphantly, smiling at the viewer, with flames coming from her palm and flowing up her arm.

A digital bust artwork of an anthropomorphic canine. They have white and blue fur with yellow star patterns on their shoulders. They wear a red bandana with a star shape on it.

A traditional bust artwork of Makoto Hanaoka from Senpai is an Otokonoko (he/him.)
He wears a flower crown made of washi tape, and the background is filled with cutesy, pastel patterned tapes. The rest of the artwork uses alcohol markers and fineliner pens.

A traditional full body artwork of an anthropomorphic seal/canine hybrid OC belonging to HeyItsPseudonym.
The artwork uses alcohol markers, washi tapes and fineliner pens.

A sketch illustration of an original character, Emma. She is a doll, has pale skin and a prosthetic metal leg, long oily black hair, and purple eyes. She is wearing a purple dress with feather and wing motifs. She is posed gracefully, reaching towards a purple spotlight desperately.

An illustration of an original character, Ollie Ardor. They have brownish skin with constellation freckles, cloudy white hair, and ram horns, hooves, and tail. Ae are wearing a very simple outfit of a crop top and pants that go just below aer knees, with a translucent poncho above it all. They are smiling, falling through a sea of sparkly clouds.

A sketch illustration of an original character, Vivian Delacroix. They have pale skin, scars all over their body, short choppy brunet hair, and indigo eyes. They are wearing a long dark coat, with a blue undershirt, white pants, and long boots, fingerless gloves and a belt, and tears on the right shoulder and left thigh. They are smiling, holding their sword Verglas and a tied string to it behind them as they pose heroically in the air, icy winds around them and sword shining.

An illustration of two people, a large person with bird-like features, feathers, and countless wings, and a princess with long hair and a gown. Together, they are holding a pristine blade, and in the other hand of the bird-person, he is touching the face of the princess delicately. Behind the princess are 19 broken glass shards, each reflecting another perspective of her, with a range of smiles to frowns, and humans to beasts to nightmares.

#5 is very rough but I do want to finish it someday because I really like how Almud looks here.

I dunno what medium the final project will be in but there will surely be illustrations and this would be one of them!

Eiliakins @eiliakins.bsky.social · 12h

Fifth WIP was for a Pokemon AU but I will have this scene in the main story too!

Almud was studying the swamp lake near where he first woke up after being sent from the medieval era to the modern day.

But it seems something in the lake thinks he has a bit too much air in his lungs... #sketch #WIP

A digital sketch of Almud, a winged elven man, being dragged into a lake by a sludge monster. Almud grimaces and grips onto the grasses at the shore as he tries to see what's pulling him.

Almud's funky cat made of earthworms watches from the side, looking worried but unable to help and Almud's new elven friend, Virna, is running over to help in a panic.

Hi #Portfolioday!
I'm JiiBee, a digital artist obsessed with all things ttrpg and a love for character and creature design.

I am also open for commissions<3
jiibee.carrd.co

The cover illustration for a book titled "Legend of the Spellthief III", written on top, with hands reaching to take away some of the letters. It features three characters standing in a cave backlit by purple flames. Left is a redhaired woman clad in heavy armour, sword propped on her right shoulder and holding a large shield on her left, looking at the man in the centre. At the centre is a man with short brown hair, the protagonist, looking slightly above viewer with his arms crossed in front of her and magic around them, blue water on his right arm and green wind on his left, wearing blue and magenta coloured outfit. On the right is a man with short black hair in a red shirt and white coat, looking at the man in the centre with an excited grin. Over all three falls a large shadow. At the bottom of the page reads "MalevolenceMau", the author. Watermark reads "©JiiBee -24". Commission work.

Digital illustration of a tonkin, or a tonberry. A green skinned/scaled creature with a fishfin like tail and big yellow eyes. He wears a black robe with colourful pattern on the edge of sleeves, front of the cloak and around the hood, while the inside is a colourful tie dye, a brown shoe peaking from under the hem as he takes a careful step. He is holding a wooden rod with a green swirled, glowing gem, a knife handle pokes through his sleeve and a sap is hanging from his belt. His free hand is pulling his hood up slightly. Done as a commission. Watermark reads "©JiiBee -25"

Digital illustration of Drazenka, a ronso with snow leopard's likeness. She is facing forward, holding a sword made of blue, jagged ice with a star shaped pommel, her expression is serene and blank as her irises are frosted over. Her outfit, cloak especially, is covered with frost and snow. Her hair is styled differently, hair pulled up and back by a large, golden hairpin with a ruby gem in the middle, an accessory from Shiva's Dissidia design. Behind her is a stained glass window with a large snowflake design behind her head, stars, cascading into an orange and yellow frame around her.

A character illustration of a woman, she has dark skin, dark brown eyes and brown to blonde ombre hair in a wavy bob. She's wearing mostly black, a cropped military jacket with gold seams and buttons, a chainshirt under it and chainmail bracers. Black pants and black leather knee high boots. She stands confidently with right hand on her hip, holding a large sword on her left with its tip on the ground. The background is dark with golden border and pattern, with text "Caelia Mea Cycnus", her name. Watermark reads "©JiiBee -25"

XIV: Haijing (海鏡 / 海镜, "sea mirror").

Her design is not a spoiler but her role in the story is, so I'm not going to say much more.

P.S. Bonus points if you spotted her cameo ;).

Portrait sketch of Haijing from Out of Memory. She has long, bluish-purple hair and light bluish-purple eyes with white pupils. She is wearing a dress with a gemstone below her collarbone and is smiling at the camera.

🎨 I never did post the finished version of this, did I? A while back I drew a lineup of our Call of Cthulhu players' investigators (+ Kibble, my favorite NPC disasters.)

The cat is an important party member, of course.

#KittensDidNothingWrong #OC #TTRPG

Character lineup art featuring seven people and a cat. From left to right, their names are Bull, Kittens, An, Corinne, Royce, Jax, and SYC (the cat). Bull is the tallest by far and Kittens is the smallest (obviously not counting the actual cat.) They are all dressed well to reflect the 1920s.

#4 for the thread!

I need to draw more of Virna with his old clothes. They should be a ton of fun to design. So much leather, studs, zippers and men's heels... 👌

Eiliakins @eiliakins.bsky.social · 1d

Fourth WIP is something small.

Virna hasn't cared about his looks in years. Even before he became undead.

But there was a time he cared and had several leather jackets, studded vests and tall boots.

He'd need to reconnect with his mom who thinks he's dead to get those back... #WIP #sketch #ocSky

A digital chibi sketch of my characters, Virna and Almud. Virna is a tall, undead Elf with long, blue hair and a full beard. He usually wears wrinkly button-up shirts and rubber boots fit for gardening but here he has got his hands on his old, knee-length leather coat. He looks wistful as he pops the coat's collar up like he liked to do way back when.

Almud is a much shorter guy wearing medieval-style clothes and looks up at Virna in surprise, never having seen Virna wear anything like this before.

Virna has been coloured in but Almud hasn't. I'd need to decide what Al would wear at this point of the story before I can finish it.

A while back, I doodled out some busts of 3 of these characters: Bertoly (ice blue hair, far left), Gin (buff guy with the neon green and purple hair), and Guignard (green haired elf in the second image). Loren (tealish hair) is a newer character.

#someonetowatchoverme #theelementals #ocs

Bertoly - tall, tan skin, ice blue hair, blue eyes. Hair is cut short, longer on the left to slightly obstruct his left eye. He has two long gold earrings. Ice Magist.

Gin - muscular build, yellow eyes, spiked neon green and purple hair. Electric Magist

Loren - medium build, tan skin, bob-length faded teal hair and blue eyes. Elf ears. Wind Magist.

Guignard - tall, slim build. Spiked green hair and green eyes. Earth Magist.

Day 13: color palette challenge!
🌟 I wanted to use the color palette challenges as an opportunity to draw OCs I don’t pay as much attention to!
So here’s Fergus (he/him)…my stern yet responsible metalworker :0

Portrait of Fergus, the personification of iron, looking to the side. It’s colored in shades of brown and pink. The background is yellow with pink patches resembling rust. The text reads “Fe”.

XIII: Sanna Rhys ("lily dragon").

A genius engineer who's often paired with Aris, Sanna is a mild-mannered and socially awkward pacifist. Her tech is often mistaken for magic.
