Panel 1: Shen is standing in a complicated machine, having seemingly just appeared inside it with sparks of green electricity. His clothes billow as he yells "AAA!! WHERE AM I??"

Panel 2: A serious looking, realistically drawn scientist begins to, with furrowed brow and intense shading, seriously explain: "It is the year 2155. We brought someone from the past who has an attention span of more than 6 seconds to"

Panel 3: The scientist is suddenly very simply/cutely drawn, now having raised his phone to his face and happily looking at it.

Panel 4: Shen raises his hands in a confused gesture and frustratedly says "YOU GUYS BUILT A TIME MACHINE IN 6 SECOND INTERVALS??"

*One* work? I have no idea. Not trying to duck the question, but I’m at a loss to say.

It depends on “when” and “where” and “what genre” I think. 1/4

I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

Here’s a cover I illustrated for the upcoming D&D book, Ravenloft: The Horrors Within. It was such a joy to paint Strahd again 🦇

With Stormbringer in hand, Elric wheels in surprise as mist swirls and gives way to an enormous skeletal figure. The tip of a trident points down at the albino warrior, who wears a yellow tunic over  scaled armor and a brilliant red cloak that captures his turning motion. The lich king wears a gold helm with horns curling back. The purple fabric covering it is in tatters, revealing a segmented gold shoulder belt and other jewelry. Its desiccated skin is shriveled on bone, making it clear the figure is undead. Points of red light shine in the shadowed orbitals of its skull. The pale green cloud billowing around the villain is populated by horrific visages of demons.
