Aura began as a fluorescent yellow doodle and spiraled out of control into an experimental abstraction of a dragon that took months.
Fireglint started with a preparational sketch that I scanned into Sketchbook Pro and worked on for half a year. Ever since printing it several unfortunate scribbles have been noticed; I have now gone back to fix those blemishes. This is version two.
Marinos Waters didn't take very long; it was concept art for my aquatic setting but turned out well. I may go back and fix the foremost island sometime as its texture doesn't match the others.
Light & Darkness depicts a shadow sorcerer and a light sorcerer (they're sibling Rakishas, a wolf-like species from my setting Marinos). They're traveling somewhere across the ice (I don't know where), and seem to have a magic aurora lantern. Apparently Frostreach, that specific region of Marinos, has a giant comet. Things just happened in this picture as I drew it.
Yes, it IS a strange picture. I will not argue with that statement. In Marinos, the skeletons of the drowned wash up on the shore and return to life with no memories except basic speech. This nautical wizard is buddies with a warrior mouse. Designing pants that wouldn't fall down on a skeleton was...interesting. The wizard has to secure the pants to his/her/its/their ribcage (hard to tell undead gender). What a pain!
