He is wearing a blue neckerchief, wrist bracers, no shirt, a green martial arts sash, and loose blue trousers obscured by branches in the foreground.

Fourth piece of the #Drawtober Halloween challenge, "Spellbound Princess", in which a prisoner must be freed as payment for the mage getting a party outfit... fae bargains, amirite?

#art #myart #oc #ocart #halloween
Digital drawing of a statue standing at the junction of a hedge maze, with glowing yellow eyes peering out from all over the foliage. The statue is of a masked elf woman enfolded in a cloak, holding her hands together in front of her waist. Standing on the right is a man with a metal arm and a blue open vest, looking around in concern. His metal arm is resting on the statue's leg, magically undoing her petrification - the effect is spreading across her cloak, returning colour to her as it progresses.

Quote with some #fanart! 🦋
Digital fanart of Vash the Stampede from the anime "Trigun Stampede", a young man with spiky fair hair and a prosthetic arm of greenish metal. His other arm is raised, with a smoking pistol pointing to the left of the frame, and he is looking in that direction with an angry expression. His long red coat is streaming out behind him, and he is standing against a desert background. Fanart of Crowley from Good Omens, dressed as a 1930s showgirl posing on stage. The text reads "My Bad, Bad Angel... You Put the Devil in Me!" (it is a reference to a musical number from David Tennant's first run in Doctor Who). Digital drawing of Edward Elric, main character of the anime & manga "Fullmetal Alchemist." The drawing depicts a young man with golden hair and eyes, worn with bangs on either side of the face and a single braid at the back. He is wearing a tucked-in vest that shows his metal right arm, a thick leather belt, and dark trousers. He is standing with his hands in his pockets, moodily looking off to the right of the frame. Digital drawing of Xantheus Auregan (a human-like dragonborn sorcerer from the High Rollers DnD show) floating in the air, backed by a swirl of red and gold light, and laughing manically as his body, eyes, and horns glow with power. He is shirtless, revealing a corrupted arm and a glowing shard of metal embedded in his chest. He is holding a lump of the same metal in his corrupted hand, and has pieces of it smeared around his mouth.
