Penumbra: Silverark's Folly
Now the name of a rotten and twisted wasteland region of the continent, Silverark's Folly also describes the downfall of a nation. In their unerring faith that they could force another sorcerer-saint into the world by power of their belief alone, the knights of the Silver Ark wrought their own terrible end.They succeeded in their task: summoning a concentration of magic so potent that for brief moments, a willing vessel was transformed. But the unnatural force could not be contained. The magic was returned to the cosmos with such sudden vio...
Photobashed Environments
I've been a bit uninspired of late, so I delved into my stack of art resources and decided to photobash together some of the material I've bought and collected over the years, to practice my scenes and environments.For a little more on the photobashing (mushing together photos and editing to create a new image), give this post a look!https://www.patreon.com/posts/red-year-artwork-46115933

Character Showcases 1
The august round certainly kept me busy!
Baldur's Gate III..... 2!
There are spoilers in the further art pieces of this post!
Baldur's Gate III!

My second run was with Paladin Sam, a Dark Urge origin character which I have to say is one of the best RPG experiences I've had in years.
