CSD in Berlin - ‘a difficult situation’ the news said, but everyone remained calm. I’m not actually sure what happened, and I’m at a safe distance now, but I hear a lot of sirens.
Dwarf King, Dwarf Queen, paired up paintings. Love illustrating a grumpy little block o' beef! From Lords of Stone and Steel, for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay
HOT FRESH NEW ART! From the just now released Sylvania - The Cursed County for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, this is Mannfred von Carstein, directing war plans!
Of the 10 eggs in this carton: 2 so far in cracked so unknown, 1 single yolk, 7 (!) double yolks, including the 4 for my lunch scramble. Good heavens!
The sketches for the Chaos icons. I normally work with just lines, but some colour exploration felt important here.
Never a bad time to re-share the Chaos icons I painted for C7, they've been used in a fair few books now 💀
Repost of a private commission from last year, I really had fun illustrating this techpriestess. #art #painting #artist #digitalart #illustration #warhammer #WarhammerCommunity #warhammer40k #commission
A snowy piece to help cool you off! But, we have another one coming and we all need to look after ourselves, and each other. Slower work? That's okay. Lower energy? That's okay.
OK, god damn it's hot out there, and this weekend looks scorching. Friends - stay cool, stay indoors, stay hydrated, and check in your people who might struggle more in this weather, especially if you're in a no-AC region.
An Ash Drake, from Champions of Chaos for Age of Sigmar: Soulbound!
Let's re-share this cover for SONS OF RUSS, for the 40k ttrpg Wrath & Glory! ❄️🔨🐺🔫❄️ #art #painting #artist #digitalart #illustration #warhammer #WarhammerCommunity #warhammer40k
Some tiny spot illustrations I painted for Vow of Absolution, for the 40k ttrpg Wrath & Glory #AmISupposedToUseHashtagsOnBSky #art #painting #artist #digitalart #illustration
I deleted my account! Stop sending me email about updates, y'freaks 😆
The linework for the custom Nurgle Chaos Space Marine faction icon:
HOT FRESH NEW ART! A recently-approved private commission, created as a custom logo for a really cool-sounding Nurgle-themed Chaos Space Marine faction, medically-based, doing their best but still deeply corrupted. Good heavens this was fun!
An absolutely incredible visit to the Hamburger Bahnhof gallery. I try to get to 10 museums/galleries minimum per year, and this year has already had some strong shows. But, but… I listened to 12 min of Le Guin and I need more time to consider her words on art.
So, I'm not going to be able to get a self portrait done this month, BUT... my portrait was drawn last weekend by my very good friend, the always excellent @runesael.bsky.social Thank you Rune! It was a blast to hang out in person, and next time you must come to Berlin, I'll show you around! 😀
Now I may have a hot fresh new Darl Elf for you tomorrow, but in the meantime, while NDAs suffocate my work, I did cook a nice few dishes 😋
Bsky admins didn't play enough RTS games, or they'd know how to avoid this 😀
Oh my stars, Bsky, you're so dramatic today! 😆
