Another moodboard for Talin! I'll have actual art soon. Probably. #BookSky #OC

A character-themed moodboard with nine pictures arranged in a three by three grid, with a gap in the middle for text. The pictures are: a snowy mountain with low-hanging clouds, a flash of lightning, a pack of howling wolves, some grey-blue sparkles and magic, a close-up of two dancers in medieval clothing holding hands, a close-up of a raven's head and eye, some castle ruins, a crown falling in front of a smoky background, and a barren desert. Cursive text in the middle reads "destiny calls"

I'm working on shiny book 3 art! In the meantime, have a character moodboard for my boy Red Wolf c: #BookSky #OC

A character-themed moodboard with nine pictures arranged in a three by three grid with a small gap in the middle for text. The pictures are: a bloodstained hand, a red moon, a knight in plate armour sitting down, a burned house in a barren landscape, a close-up of a wolf's face, yellow glowing magic, a snow-covered river bank, a silhouette of a person standing in front of a fire, and a sword propped against a rock. Cursive text in the middle reads "bury the past."

Oh hey it's been a hot second huh Book 3 news! Real soon! Watch this space 👀 #BookSky

From top to bottom, the pictures are: northern lights over a snowy landscape, a snowy mountain range during the day, a close-up of a wolf's head, and some castle ruins. Faint cursive text over the moodboard reads "power, spirit, destiny."
