Items of the Sleepless Drift
New artwork posted today at Nevermet Press: Items of the Sleepless Drift. These are some fantasy magical items related to the site’s current publishing cycle, Neirave. I’m going for the DaVinci-esque traveler’s sketchbook theme for these 3 illustrations.



Dragon
There’s some new content at Nevermet Press with another one of my sketches. This time it’s a dragon. Here’s the picture:

He looks like he’s up to something, right? He’s doing the little finger-twiddling thing. I don’t really know why, but that’s the mood I was in when I sketched him.
Speaking of dragons, I saw an awesome song on TV a while back, on the most famous Japanese kid’s show. I haven’t been able to get it out of my head for days. Here’s the song:
Probably it’s because I want a dragon suit like that…
The Scion of Spring
New fantasy art today: The Scion of Spring. This is the King of Spring with his young apprentice. The full story is on Nevermet Press, but basically this concept is about a forest overrun with cold, and the only way to end the winter is with the help of these two.

New Nevermet Press Art
I’ve been continuing the artwork for Nevermet Press this past week and then some, but I haven’t had a chance to post anything until now. These went live on the website a few days ago, but anyway here they are. (I decided to do color for these this time, though on the site they ended up monochrome. Oh well.)
The first one is called The Bastion of the Hidden Kingdom. It’s basically a haunted manor in the city-state of Corwyn (from my previous post). You can read more of it’s description on its website.

Next is a character named Scar, a kind of undead guy with a revenge thing going. Again, it probably makes more sense attached to the story.

Soul's End
I’m working on 3 more pictures for Nevermet Press at the moment, so I’ll be able to post them as soon as I finish. It’s a pretty cool project, and it’s starting to pick up in popularity. Hopefully I’m doing my part well enough.
The City State of Corwyn
I’ve gotten back to doing some fantasy artwork recently, and I ended up getting involved with a new publisher called Nevermet Press. They’re publishing system non-specific RPG products, and I’m one of the artists producing some work for them. It’s fun, and my first piece went up today at this site. You can read the story behind the picture there.
Hobo Dwarf
I felt like drawing a dwarf. And I thought I would do more than just doodle, so I decided to change this Norman Rockwell painting into a dwarf. Instead of a dog, there’s a dragon-like thing. Instead of a newspaper, he has a treasure map, and instead of a satchel he has a bag of treasure. Oh, and of course he’s cooking raw meat instead of sausages. Good ol’ dwarfs! If I have time later I may paint it as well.
