Hello #Portfolioday

My name is Jimmy Makepeace and I am an illustrator and sometimes animator based in Bristol UK.

WIP

Not a dracolich :) but my take for fun on the first ever design of the dnd black dragons in 1e, decided to make it slender rather than bulky since they used to be more... cunning based rather than physical powerhouses.

Funny that they had skeleton wings rather than skull inspired faces

a dark painting of a dnd 1e dragon, way more snake like and slender and with a tail based on the modern 3-5e ones, the pose is dynamic and dramatic, extending their arms like some kind of evil mage and almost like is resting on their own whip like long tail while suspended in the void, mouth filled with glowing acid and the skeletal wings framing their figure, long neck arched.

a closer shot of the face, with many detailed scales drawn one by one

Worked in some animations for the sugar ghoul...... him and his friends will patrol randomly until they spot you, then they'll chase and attack until you get out of range, then return to patrol. If you land on their heads, they go SPLAT

There is a brave knight within u ⚔️

A brave mole knight is standing on a molehill, sword and shield in hand. He is framed by a gothic stone frame and in the back, you can see a landscape reminiscent of the rennessance portraits. Underneath, on a piece of paper it says, "There is a brave knight within you", with a painting of a small sword below.

Time to paint!

This will be an illustration of my depiction of an early scene within the book Mythago Wood by Robert Holdstock. A book I wish I read when I was younger! Highly recommend it for those into the fantasy genre or who are nostalgic for times before their own!

#books #illustration

An image of pencil drawing mapped out on watercolour paper before being painted into. There is a sketchbook open too featuring preliminary sketches and a colour study of the drawing. The illustration is based off of a scene in the earlier parts of the book Mythago Wood by Robert Holdstock.

I had fun with the style, thinking of 101 dalmatians, don't look at the ropes, I should have animated them instead of simulating, but now I'm thinking more on the wayfinder / wow stylization
