Teor is really making an impression wherever he goes, huh :P

#CriticalRole #CriticalRolefanart #CriticalRoleArt #CriticalRoleSpoilers

A colored three panel comic. Teor bathed in golden light healing the cart guy as Wicander comes up, having heard the bang. Panel 2 is Teor turning dramatically with his eyes glowing gold, sunlight all around him, hair like a shampoo commercial. Panel 3, both Wicander and Tyranny overwhelmed by Teor (in perhaps different ways..)

i just love the idea that like Laudna, Cassandra de Rolo is fighting against the Briarwoods' control. And Keyleth falling in love and trying to keep her grounded. #criticalrolefanart #voxmachina #keyleth

Keyleth from Critical Role wraps her arms around Cassandra de Rolo from behind. Cassandra gazes past the viewer, her expression broken and mournful. Keyleth holds onto her tightly, a hand over her chest and her nose pressed gently to her shoulder, just below Cassandra's scars from Sylas Briarwood's fangs. Keyleth gently holds Cassandra's hand in hers.

Part 2

... And then they started making out again

#KpopDemonHunters #KPDH #Art

Rumi's hand slaps on the bed making a "pah!" sound, she says "I got it!!"

Rumi, now kneeling on the bed, raises her hand high and shouts "Nemo!!"

"Not an animal" Zoey answers off camera.

Mira, also kneeling, points at the camera and says "Nessie!"

"The cryptid???" Zoey again, off camera

Rumi throws her hands behind her head in frustration shouting "come one!"

Mira looks furious beside her and screams "Fuck!"

Zoey raises her pointer finger up on one hand and confidently says "So there's narwhal, numbat, nutria, naja, nurse shark, nightingale, nudibranch, nautilus, newt, nandu, nightjar, nine banded armadillo, nematode, naked mole rat, nyla, napoleon fish, nuthatch, nile crocodile, nighthawk, needle-fish, night heron, not to mention all the animals that start with 'northen' in their name, like the northen pike or the northen elephant seal..."

Rumi and Mira sit cross legged on the bed, both looking intensely at Zoey as she lists all the animals, and think the same thing "I can't not fuck her"

This sounds like very likely! They are vulnerable to hoonmoon damage 😆
I forget the plane scene, they are indeed stronger tougher than I thought first, maybe the hunter has innate hoonmoon magic in them, that's why they can still fistfight them
They're multiclass bard/monk

yeah are amazing like that! they are really 3 dimensional characters, it's why people (both in the movie and irl) love them so much!
and for the demon
I would say the faceless are the weakest, less than human adult
the human size are about the same
and the big ones are tougher
but hoonmoon weapons😂

Digital artwork of a witch standing waist deep on a Bog, dead hands reaching out of the water. She wears brown clothing that's clinging to her, and smudges of mud on her skin. A heron stands in the tall grass in the background, and mushrooms grow on a fallen log in the foreground

Digital artwork of two characters. The man has on a leather vest over a flannel shirt, a compass rose tattoo on his arm, his brown hair blowing in the wind. He's leaning close to the woman, who has cherry pink hair in a twisting braid, wearing green overalls over a yellow tank top. She leans against a metallic wall covered in vines. A tornado rages in the background

ABG - November Comms Open @abyssgrant.bsky.social · 1d

Hi everyone ✨Happy #PortfolioDay!

I'm Grant, or ABG. I'm a Freelance Fantasy Illustrator from South Africa.

My dream is to one day work with Darrington Press and WoTC.

🎨: www.artstation.com/abyssgrant
✉️: [email protected]
linktr.ee/abyssgrant #ABG_Art

COMM:
4 tarot inspired illustrations featuring 4 villains in a ttrpg campaign.

The Gored:
1/7 A beautiful, pale elf woman with fit muscles and a white and gold ornamental dress. Blood flows behind her with ancient carvings depicting sacrifice and power is seen on the stone decorations.

The Oracle:
2/7 A powerful wizard in intricate blue and gold robes. He has a chest piece in the shape of a phoenix. There is a space/time theme and within his staff and robes glows a cosmic phoenix. In the foreground are his thralls.

The Maw:
3/7 A dark-skinned warrior with long hair wearing a shattered crown made of obsidian. He wears a long brown cloak over black and red armor. A cloth covers what seems to be teeth like decorations on the armor. Behind him, a demon wearing the same armor but wearing a red Oni-like mask has him by the throat. The scene is cracked behind him.

The Doombringer:
4/7 The goliath suit of armor of a long dead king reanimated to avenge his fallen kingdom. The armor has mongolian inspired features with a long, red trail of hair from the top of the helmet. There's a crown of aquamarine fire around the full iron faced helmet. The souls of his fallen people bind the armor together represented by ghostly hands spreading out from the cloak and in between the armor pieces. In his right hand is a massive great axe made of ghostly white energy. The armor steps through a battlefield of enemies felled by his hand, looking like they've been sucked of their life energy. Behind the Doombringer is a collapsing tower also filled with ghostly energy, and two hands are reaching towards him beside the tower.

#Characters by english-frog@bsky.social

Thimble, Character by Laura Bailey for Critical Role C4
Digital Fanart
A broad smiling female pixie flies slightly above a bar table looking up at the camera. She has her hands behind her back and head tilted mischievously. A slight glint of her needle sword is seen behind her.

Neith, Opener of Ways
Digital Art 2025

She's a dark, towering figure, all long limbs and flowing robes. Horns like a crown burst from her head, emerging from inky hair that trails off into nothingness. She has multiple, spider-like eyes, strikingly pale against her oil-slick skin. She has a gaping maw revealed under the robes with sharp, white teeth. She looks larger than life and strikingly inhuman.

In front of her is another character curled up and floating in a serene state.

The entire image has an oil sheen motif and inky oil features.

Commissioned on Tumblr

Mage 2
Digital Art 2024

Commission for SpeedRobo Games

A bright, frilly dressed young woman with pink hair smiles up towards the camera while pointing a magical staff. Power emanates around her and enchants a giant T-Rex made out of colorful blocks. She looks joyful and happy.

A digital illustration of a scene from AV Wilkes' 'All the White Spaces'. Jonathan, a trans man and the protagonist, stands in the centre, facing the viewer. He stares ahead in horror, his right hand clutching his throat. From his left eye, strands of bleeding red aurora stretch outwards. These auroras show visions of Jonathan's brothers on the Western Front of the First World War:
- A moustached officer smokes a cigarette in a trench, looking away.
- A soldier is twisted in the remains of barbed wire.
- Three soldiers wear gas masks, emerging from clouds of mustard gas.
- No Man's Land exploded to all hell. A tank is submerged in a shell hole in the distance.
- A skull pressed into the earth.
- A soldier holds a rifle and makes his way across the strait of No Man's Land.

Two portrait aligned digital illustrations of book covers.
Left: An illustration of Afaeran and King Galdor from the webcomic Wundor. They stand in the centre, facing each other. They are bordered by Ancient Greek inspired white columns and an arch above them. The columns are covered with grapevines, vine leaves, and hanging purple grapes. Afaerun is an oche skinned elf with flowing light pink-white hair, and wears a curved silver and ruby tiara, he smiles as he looks at King Galdor. King Galdor is a purple skinned monarch with a single white horn growing from his head. He has flowing dark purple hair, and wears a red leaf laurel. He holds Afaerun's cheek in a romantic embrace.
Right: Two male characters stand in front of each other, staring at the other. One is shorter, and wears a mustard yellow jumper, looking annoyed. The other is taller, with frizzy blonde hair, a purple hoodie, and looks smug. A border of cat toys surrounds them. A cat lies down, arching over the two men, and has a smile on his face.

2 different portrait illustrations side by side.
Left: Alder is a green skinned eladrin elf paladin. He stands nude in a forest. He wears a gold crown of laurels on his head. He looks down at the ground. He holds a sword in one hand, and a sprig of alder branch in the other, he has a shield attached to one arm. He is surrounded by green trees and yellow flowers.
Right: A digital illustration inspired by the pairing Hansry (Hans Capon and Henry of Skalitz from the game series Kingdom Come Deliverance). The illustration is influenced by a scene in the 2005 film Pride and Prejudice. It is separated into 3 panels.
Panel 1: Hans Capon looks behind him in quiet shock at his bodyguard Henry.
Panel 2: Henry has touched Hans' ungloved hand with his gauntleted one in a gentle hold. The panel is surrounded by blooming flowers: herbs and plants that Henry can forage on his journey. Marigold, St John's Wort, Valerian, Sage, Chamomile, and Dandelion.
Panel 3: Henry meets Hans' eyes with an unreadable expression. He quietly yearns beneath it.

A double page spread of a comic. The first page shows a twisted tree in the centre, the space between each branch a panel showing a plague blighting a kingdom. The protagonist called Wolfgang is engulfed in the blighted roots of the twisted tree in the throes of a nightmare. A voice tells him "Take heed, young Durward. These lands know only death, and within its centre, a horror festers. It feasts on all its roots can teach, and what life remains dwindles."
The second page shows a close up of the branches of this twisted tree. Between its panels are images of rot, bodies in body bags, dead fish floating, and the branches are infested with maggots. The voice continues "Soon, there will be naught to satisfy its hunger. But for every poison, there is an antidote."

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.
