Short #freefantasyart this time - I loved this piece of a vampire as a base, but the black-and-white just wasn't doing it justice imo

I know that I'm just #colouring things, but I do feel like I'm gaining in skill over time - and I hope that some of these will wind up being of use to people in one way or another - that's the whole point of creative commons art!
If anyone wants something specific coloured, let me know.
The same image of a fish-person, this time the skin on the human torso is grey, the tail is green, and his face is an angry pink with sharp white fangs.
The same image of a fish-person, this time the skin on the human torso is a healthy brown, the tail is green, and his face is a sickly green with sharp white fangs.
The same image of a fish-person, this time the skin on the human torso is a reddish brown, the tail is grey-green, and his face is an a dark blue-green.
And now for my coloured versions - no advenced edits this time, just a variety of different appeances that suit different seas, or masters - from undead to full-on demonic.

A fish-person wielding a many-pointed spear (with all the points colliding into one) - has a fish lower body, human torso with extra fins, and demonic face with tentacles growning from it.

A black and white image of a mummy emerging from its sarcophagus
The same image, but coloured so the sarcophagus resembles limestone, and the mummy looks rotted and green.
The same image, but the sarcophagus is a darker stone, and the mummy is even more rotted.
And second is a newer one, possibly a bit less developed inb variants, but still with source file.

And my #creativecommons edit of this one - a few variants on colours and whether he's human or an elf. This one's up on DriveThruRPG with a whole bunch of variants.

It's not technically saturday anymore when I post this, because my couch broke and repairing it took a while. To make up for that, two images this time!

I've written up a talent for the #13thAge 2nd Edition Bard that makes things a bit more reliable - The Conductor bard; you use your allies as the instrument.
drive.google.com/file/d/1kaTg...
The 13th Age 2e Bard is a very interesting class to brew for, each talent coming with a package of effects.
An illustration of an insectoid figur, with gray claws and mandibles. It has two legs, two scythelike claws, and two regular arms, as well as a tail.
Looking forward to using one as a tetocani.
And here's the original image from which I worked:

Another saturday, another #art edit. Not sure how happy I am with this one, playing around with texturing - which of these three works best?

Umbreon or Sylveon I think, probably Umbreon. The friendship evolutions look more comfortable than other eeveelutions, and I just don't think I'd enjoy being an Espeon.
I kinda want to be a sylveon, but I think I'd be too uncomfortable with the attention, while Umbreon is more how I actually am.
As always with my edits, if you follow the links through the Ko-Fi you can access the krita files, which allows you to play with the colours of all the different parts of the image and generate your own variants. I may even come back to this and add a version that seperates skin and scales later.
The same image of a snake-haired and tailed gorgon staring down at a petrified warrior dismissively, but in colour - various jewelry that the gorgon is wearing is clearly golden, her skin is green, her eyes yellow she wears a purple corset, and it's clear that the petrified warrior's clothing and sword have not been turned to stone.
The same image, except her skin is golden and she has clawed fingernails.
The same image except her skin is red.
My wife is a big fan of the gorgons in general, so here's three versions of the #illustration / #art - red for Stheno, golden for Euryale and green for Medusa.

An elderly looking gorgon, with snake-hair and a snake tail, looks down at the statue of a warrior frozen mid-swing - the warrior's left arm has broken away, but the hand is still attached to his right hand which holds his sword.
#FreeFantasyArt Today's saturday, so it's an edit I made
Starting with the black-and-white piece of line-art that I decided to throw myself at.

From pencil to color, it's all done by hand. Here is under a timelapse of my recent comic strip: two days of work in 30s. I use Krita to bring my art to life, on Debian, one stroke at a time.

I hope some of this stuff has been useful to those reading - let me know if it has.
I'll try and boil it all down into a document eventually, and may come back to spotlighting things in a few months, but until then, tomorrow is the last day of January, and going forward I'll do one art post a week.
I haven't seen anyone illustrate a whole RPG with Pepper and Carrot art, but I believe it could be done - especially as he chooses to make the textless versions of each panel available for ease of use.

A woman with short hair and practical clothing is trapped in the jaws of a plant, reaching outwards desperately trying to grab a wand.
Throughout this month I have often run into a new source of art and then gone - "Oh, wait, that's David Revoy again". He's done a LOT of cool stuff.

An almost entirely grey image, with the main point of colour being a glowing lantent that hangs from a stick on an ox that's being ridden by a young boy with a large load of luggage. The other light source are the eyes of sinister-looking figures wreathed in shadow behind him. The entire landscape is sharp and sinister, but too smoky and grey to make out details.
#FreeFantasyArt -Today's the penultimate day of this series-so I'm finally repeating possibly the most prolific creator, Deevad:

As a reminder, always check licenses, and be careful - the SCP wiki licenses everything as CC-BY-SA **UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE**. Neither of these art sets state otherwise at present, but some do and there's no guarantee that these ones won't be changed later.
An insect-like humanoid figure, with two main arms and two smaller ones, flies above. It has a wide smile, and antennae on its face that resemble a handlebar mustache.
And a happy go lucky looking insect man that is currently my new internal image for The Delver from our 13th Age setting.

A sea scene. On the left a small wooden boat sails with 3 visible crew members, on the right giant metal figures that are belching smoke into the air stride forward - they appear at least 30 feet tall, and are producing so much smoke it's blotting the sky behind them.

A samurai wreathed in purple flames stands ready to fight, with a serrated sword drawn. His visible leg looks artificial, although it's shadows so exact details are unclear.
Counterplay Games made a very kind choice releasing their entire game and all its #art into the #creativecommons in such a way - and it's definitely worth checking out Duelyst II

You may note I'm not crediting the artist - this isn't because I don't want to, I really do, so much so that it's delayed me posting from this source. I can credit the game, but can't find credits for individual art. This may be because all art was collaborative, or I may just be missing something.
A city of antiquity style buildings exists atop a glowing blue plateau that hangs over the ground below, the city is painted in glows of yellow and purple. Between the plateaus and the ground the sun can be seen peeking through clouds

Also, as long as you don't scroll past the line, you only see whether or not YOUR triggers are present. So rather than a list of the most common, and maybe getting "spoiled" that there's animal death when that's manageable for you, you can slim it down to just the things you personally need to know.
while credit would be appreciated if you use them untouched, I'm happy to release the edits as CC0. Remember that you do still need to credit Jaclynonacloud for the image however - all I'm doing is waiving any control over the slapdash 3 minute GIMP edits.
Normally I keep any editing for the weekly upload to avoid overworking, but these edits are just so fast and smooth.
For reference the colourised dragon is colourised by me, and the non-green wolf had some of the glow manually removed by me. These edits were quick and minor enough that🧵
