The portfolio I linked in the replies here arrived in the mail, and I opened this to find it was the very first print—I don’t think I’ve ever been so instantly vindicated by a purchase in my life:

The portfolio edition of Oscar Chichoni, signed and accompanied by a print of a half naked warrior surrounded by supplicant nuns.

I call this the Jason X rule, by the way, due to this post:

A long post from tumblr about the necessity of sex scenes, in which someone badly tries to use Jason X as an example.

it feels like a good day to remind everyone how big Valerin's arms are (commissioned from @dianaslippers.art)

A large, muscular butch knight in gold-detailed leather armor stands holding her jagged sword. Her skin is textured like wood and her blonde hair is shaved high on the sides.

Rien Gray@riengray· Jun 25

it's a different kind of divine grace resulting in consolation, but really, I think it counts riengray.itch.io/the-scales-o...

I did take a still as well to show the whole piece. The tip is back folded for local competition and training purposes. Specs are 1410g steel (weight), 133cm (length), with a leather wrapped handle and pear pommel. (cc: @clclarkwrites.com who wanted to see the sword)

Taking good sword pictures in a small apartment is a pain so I went to the wooded area nearby and took a video instead (tip cover on since it’s rude to grind a lady’s face into the dirt)

the dark magics of the postal service lied to me, my blade awaited in its proper place

one of the funniest things about the AI spam emails is they can't help but copy the direct metadata, no matter how ridiculous it looks

Some AIslop email sent to me, promising to feature my book #4.

There are now paperbacks for The Scales of Seduction in my personal shop! These ones are a few bucks cheaper than at B&N, since I'm not obliged to charge 15 dollars for a novella: Get your serpent lesbians today 🐍 riengray.shop/b/AQW7s 🐍

Because everyone enjoyed this so much, I wanted to share another one of my favorites, this one from Luis Royo - I've wanted a butch/femme version of this forever.

A vampiric woman with a blade holds the hair of a blonde werewolf, pulling back as they are tangpled in an embrace.

Reminder that MMPB-style paperbacks are available for Galeas in both my personal shop and various retailers! A blind butch knight seeks to save a femme Fisher King from a cursed flood and unravel the lies they were both raised to believe 🌊 riengray.shop/b/wYrcg books2read.com/u/m2goyr

Get to two for one this time since both myself and the main lesbian couple of my latest are disabled - it's a sapphic retelling of the Fisher King with a blind butch knight and a limited mobility femme: riengray.itch.io/galeas-the-k... books2read.com/u/m2goyr

I've been obsessed with this art that Oscar Chichoni did for the 20 year special of Heavy Metal since I was a teenager - every time I see it, the door to my id opens:

A scarred knight with short blonde hair is being stripped of her heavy metal armor by a group of nuns swathed in black.

Rien Gray@riengray· Jun 12

Galeas may be the youngest sister, but she’s definitely the biggest:
