This is a goblin.

Don't think your drawings where failures =) keep striving.

This one is called Neon Dame. I had it uploaded with a watermark, but because of the colors it ruined the shot. So here it is without.

"A stillborn calf in utero"

Pardon the name, but that's what it looks like to me. Like the time I told a psychiatrist giving me an inkblot test I saw naked people worshiping a pole (I did see that! I was only being honest!)



"Where Klansmen go to hell"

I don't think naming s**t is pretentious either, kinda have to point viewers in the right direction with abstract stuff.

The barbarian chieftain on the left owes most of his inspiration to the pre-Christian Germanic cultures of Northern Europe, although his blue woad makeup is more Celtic. As someone of Anglo-Saxon heritage, I feel a special degree of kinship with the Germanic and Celtic peoples, as they were my ancestors in antiquity. One little-known fact about Germanic societies is that many of them had a quasi-democratic institution called the Thing, an assembly where the community's freemen would vote for their leaders. Even today, some Nordic democracies have named branches of their government after the Thing.

The Roman Emperor in the middle wears an unfriendly expression because for some reason I've always gotten a "bad guy" vibe off the Romans and perceived them as the quintessential Evil Empire. In fairness, most empires back in ancient times could be cruel towards their enemies, but since the Romans fought my ancestors I must feel especially bitter towards them. If my Roman guy's skin looks a little yellow or orange, he's meant to have an olive Mediterranean complexion.

Whether or not it's historically accurate, the Afrocentric reconstruction of ancient Egyptians as Black African people has always appealed to me aesthetically, hence why my Pharaoh on the right (and all of my Egyptian-style characters in general) has a Black African appearance. Of course there were other African civilizations like Mali, Great Zimbabwe, and Ethiopia, but Egypt is by far the most familiar to the lay public and arguably the most influential on our own Western civilization.

Alone in a Field

This is a similar concept I have done a great deal, just never really uploaded. It is a shadowed figure somewhere in a forest. I was playing around with muro textures and I really liked one I found for grass, so I went with it.

Another badly drawn image. I call it "Carnosaur", even though this particular dinosaur is not really a carnosaur. It is more of a scientifically innacurate theropod.



Obviously, I was too lazy to finish this picture. It is very blurry and the lava looks like barbecue sauce.

^ I actually really like the blurred effect.



This pic was accidental but I love it, sooo much. I got a new android tablet from a friend, and it has a sketch feature. This is where I made it I think it came out incredible. I also made one in multicolor, but I have not moved it from the android to my PC yet.

I got a bamboo splash tablet today and have been practicing using it. I wanted it to be able to use different mediums and see how i like them, save on supplies of paper and mediums and well, its just more environmentally friendly to not go through 15 sheets of paper every day, or every session.

If i made it on the computer its digital art, right?

Anyone who has ever been or is intimidated by eye contact can relate to this, I think. I sure can.

Nice. I don't like eyedroppers and have never worn contacts, so I wear glasses.

Here is one of the orcs from Chitheria Tempus, albeit wearing modern day clothing:

I meant like looking at them, eye contact not eye contacts with an S
