2026 is going to be my year and that is a threat (I listened to Hopes and Dreams on repeat making this)

my final art piece of the year! it was a doozy. my first time painting lineless, and i had to fight The Depression real hard after some devastating events IRL. but the desire to finish this was strong enough, and once i got going i got SUPER into it. #worldofwarcraft #nightelf #elfenjoyers #oc #art

my 2025 art summary! this year was the first time since i started learning how to draw that i've drawn at least *something* every single month. and most of it had to do with @sylessae.bsky.social's portrait bootcamp and mentorship. basically all of it, actually. #artsummary #artsummary2025

Here's my Art Summary 2025. It's been a year of learning, trials, error and insecurities. But also a year of making new friends, adventures and genuine happy moments. Here's hoping to grow stronger in 2026 💪 #artsummary2025 #artsummary #art

And with that last one uploaded...here is my 2025 art summary thingy! I'm feeling far more confident in comparison to last year. I am moving towards a solid style and palette that I really like and just generally feel happier with my art 🩵

I finished my art summary for 25 and it illustrates my shifting gaming interests beautifully. 😂 Syl‘s portrait bootcamp in the beginning of the year has been a real game changer for me. Also, I couldn’t choose just one favourite piece. 😬 #sylbootcamp #daveilguard #dainquisition #coex33 #artsummary

At the end of 2024, I finally decided that one of my 2025 new year's resolutions was to complete enough artworks to post a summary at the end of this year—and here it is! Special shout out to @sylessae.bsky.social and her portraiture bootcamp! [ #art #artsummary #characterart #oc #ocsky #dnd ]

Im proud of you. You are doing the best you can as an artist in a time where people dont appreciate human art anymore. We are all struggling, but we are struggling together. We got this, and I believe in you. Don't let the hard times crush your creativity. ♡

i've finished the sketch, and fixed several missed perspective issues yay!, and now i'm trying to convince myself to paint it XD #worldofwarcraft #elf #art #warcraftart

i don't think i've ever really posted any WIPs on here... so i may as well, eh? rip the bandaid off or whatever. i've never drawn a wow character, so i've been weirdly extra stressed about it. (maybe i'm scared to do it "wrong"? idk lmao) #worldofwarcraft #elf #art #warcraftart

once more i show up with a portrait of my favorite dnd character that i've barely ever played. she was the first one i ever put so much love and lore into, and the first i ever drew, and when her original game was cancelled i was CRUSHED. #art #dnd #oc #sketch #ttrpg

Artists! Show an old piece you still love! this is the drawing that i always look back at and go "i wish i could do that again".

you know, i've never reposted my own stuff before, but i'm always posting in the middle of the night so maybe i should start LOL

i'm doing a second run-through of @sylessae.bsky.social 's #SylBootcamp, so here's my baseline portrait! i'm going to try to add in painting this time around, but we'll see if i keep it up LOL

anguish, torture and all circles of hell actually. fucking let me draw my OCs!!!!!

two years of bg3?! already?!? i recently remade my original tav with all the fun appearance mods that i love, so i figured i'd share her original iteration, and the one i'm replaying the game with now! and yes, she's a *tav*, and neutral good. the tattoo wasn't known to me as the "durge tattoo" yet.

i'm not really good at social media! here's a painting i just finished, and i'm pretty happy with it. there's some stuff i'd change if i were to do it again, but i'm not about to keep working on it XD

Been making some good progress on a backlog of work. Here's a commission of a D&D party.

experimenting with figuring out How To Paint, and i don't hate it but i also don't love it. some parts i like, and some parts of the process i enjoyed! so like... not a "loss" or smth, just not something that makes me super happy when i look at it like my thora portrait. they can't all be winners XD

Lady Cerridwen Trevelyan from the Ostwick Circle of Magi, Herald of Andraste and future leader of the Inquisition I love her so much and working with the paper texture was immense fun! 🧡 #dragonage #dragonageinquisition #inquisitor #trevelyan #mage #digitalart

“I don’t judge sinners. Only the gods can do that. All the church asks of me is to bring the sinners to face their adjudicators.” — Elektra, cleric-rogue #art #characterart #dnd #oc

my first properly painted portrait! well, "properly" is being used VERY loosely here lmao. but i've been wanting to draw thora, and i feel like i can't draw her without also doing some kind of coloring and rendering so here we are!

Going from this to this in a 24 hour window is either insane or iconic

hi #portfolioday! i'm rhi, a freelance illustrator from the uk. i'm ride or die for the worst characters 😈 ko-fi: ko-fi.com/relion 📩: [email protected] 🎨: cara.app/relion

Hiya #portfolioday! I'm CL (or V over on Insta) and I draw a variety of stuff, from portraits, landscapes to random things I find interesting. ☺️ #digitalart #daveilguard #ghibli

Hi #PortfolioDay I’m Mistle, a beginner artist learning to draw and paint. Here are some of my latest portraits. ✌🏻

hello #portfolioday! i'm corvana or stevie, and i've been learning to draw for a while but have finally sort of found a good "groove" more recently! here's some of my most recent/favorite stuff, and i hope to have a lot more to show in the future!

"I just... don't have Illario's gift for flirting." I have to disagree. 🫦 Anyway, I finally finished this painting after 29.5 hours! I'm so happy with the end result and the progress I made during the bootcamp. 😍 I even added a little bonus with Spite. 😎 #daveilguard #lucanis #spite #sylbootcamp

I finished my last portrait for @sylessae.bsky.social ‘s bootcamp. The 8 weeks went by so quickly and I’m really happy with my progress. #sylbootcamp

i can't *not* also do a side-by-side! #sylbootcamp

late, but still posting! my final portrait for @sylessae.bsky.social 's portrait bootcamp! i took WAY too long to do it, but i finished it and i'm pretty pleased with it! i of course redrew the first portrait i did for this bootcamp. #sylbootcamp

Week 3 and 4 portraits for @sylessae.bsky.social 's bootcamp. This time we have Marisha Ray and Sam Riegel (yes I'm planning on doing the whole critical role cast) #SylBootcamp

Got behind on #Sylbootcamp , but I finally finished my week 8 portrait! :> Week 8 was hair week, and while I like how it came out in this one I definitely need to find a faster process for it 😂😭

For fun, here's a comparison from before the #Sylbootcamp (left) and after (right) Woah!!!

Since the rendering of Lucanis’s armour is taking me ages to finish, I thought I’d share the loosely shaded sketch in the meantime. 🙈 This is my portrait for week 8 of Syl’s boot camp vs. my portrait from week 1. I love the progress I made over the past weeks. 🧡 #sylbootcamp #lucanis #daveilguard

Finishing up the #SylBootcamp with a half-body portrait of Nicci, a wizard from the last D&D campaign I DM’d. By her expression, it seems she is about to partake in her favorite pastime: fireballing a fool. The bootcamp has been a joy! Thanks @sylessae.bsky.social! #art #characterart #dnd

"Whatever it takes." After a good 10 hours, I have finally finished my portrait for bootcamp week 7. The painting part took way longer than expected (of course), but I'm happy with the result! #sylbootcamp #daveilguard #davrin

Working on my last portrait for the bootcamp and I think it may end up being my favorite ✨ Still much to do ✍🏽 [ #sylbootcamp #art #sketch ]

before // after I completed #SylBootcamp with @sylessae.bsky.social and this is the result!

It's been such a wonderful, eventful and productive time at #SylBootcamp with @sylessae.bsky.social and all my fellow classmates! For the finishing touch and last bootcamp push I did my best to redo the first week's portrait :) Pleased with the result

Final portrait for #sylbootcamp! I learned a lot and this was a great experience to share with such cool an talented people. 💜 #art #oc

Final Week 8 of #SylBootcamp portrait is Ellie and she is my favorite portrait ever. I'm so happy I invested into this bootcamp and took a chance on a teacher who is passionate and understanding of not only art, but returning that spark of love for it. Ty! @sylessae.bsky.social #lastofus2 #ellie

I wanted to do a fully painted portrait for the last week of #sylbootcamp and here it is! Hope you don’t mind my drow obsession :) Thank you for the lessons @sylessae.bsky.social 💙💙 my art has improved so much! #art #dndart

a person: are u fucking stupid me:

“Darling, you cried out into the void, pleading for help to escape a terrible fate. Now it is time for you to shatter the shackles of predestination and take the reins of your own destiny.” The Winged Wizard is the Week 8 portrait for @sylessae.bsky.social’s #SylBootCamp. #characterart #art #dnd
