Thx for this awesome layout idea! I used it on mine and I love how it's a nice microcosm of my art. It's so exciting to see so much awesome art crossing my feed today!

Here's mine for the artshare:

Nils is a new choice for this year's Art Fight! He’s my quiet, reserved socially awkward sadboi.

He uses his skills as a former priest of Kelemvor to retrieve the bodies of fallen Blood Hunters. It’s a job nobody wants, but he doesn’t mind so much.

Plus some beautiful new character art included in my profile by @thewhalergirl.bsky.social who did these amazing takes on my exiled prince, Ramah, and the mortician-turned-monster hunter, Nils.

Nils is a new choice for this year's Art fight! :3

I’ve usually bought packs individually from folks, but haven’t seen many services with human photos that aren’t 3D models, except maybe Croquis Cafe. Which ones do you use?

Intriguing! A photo ref service with varied models and fair pricing for commercial use sounds like it'd be really useful. Clean looking ref packs thus far. It would be awesome to see them expand.

I also snagged the Affinity Suite while it was on sale, but putting that off till I learn these tools first. My logic thus far: - CSP EX to replace Photoshop & simple PDF layout needs - DaVinci Resolve to replace Adobe Rush - Affinity to replace advanced PDF/InDesign needs Brain full.🥲

Feeling a bit overwhelmed with trying to move away from Adobe products after being tired of their high pricetag & low trustworthiness. Currently trying to learn Clip Studio Paint EX and Da Vinci Resolve and I fear I've bitten off more than I can chew..but the escape plan is in motion!

I explored KUSHIEL'S DART in 2013 to create my own cover & to explore the visuals of Terre d'Ange's rich world. I grew so much during this project, but was never able to return to it till recently after fighting with career burnout & health challenges. (A few faves from back then)

Affinity is running a 50% off flash sale. Their Publisher can't quite match InDesign (no epub support yet from what I understand), but it shares a lot of the features and is a one-time fee. Designer is Illustrator's equivalent, and Photo replaces Photoshop.

I should also note that while I say it deserves another season, the story of season 1 is complete. It would just be fun to watch more of this weirdness because I’ve never seen anything like it lol.

Nothing is familiar. Everything is alien and strange and unexpected with mxasterfully rendered environments that intrigue and terrify. I would perhaps define this as scifi eco-horror? Awesome show. Highly recommend it if you enjoy weird stuff like this! Let's get some eyes on it for a season 3!

Have a timelapse of Shame's piece to appreciate how many times I changed my mind about the cloak form and the composition.

"Shame" for Neev (maptheunknown on tumblr) for the Forge of Wonders' latest Exalted Character of the Week Challenge. Shame did not want the golden destiny of being a Solar, but even denying her fate, she shines regal against the darkness.

Getting ever closer to a style that feels right! #exaltedrpg
