Where the tumblr witch pictures all from a few artists or do tumblr artists all share a very similar style?

Take a look at Barlowe's Inferno series. A lot of good distorted humans and weird creatures in their.

Fun fact: the disc on the demon second from the top is actually a defeated demon/devil. I also think that may be a minor devil (or demon, I don't remember the terminology), which were created by the higher devils after the fall. You can tell by the two mouths.

I think accruing enough defeated devils could also cause a lesser devil to mature into a full one. The novel was pretty good once I got around Barlowe's writing style.

There's a book?! Barlowe has always struck me as the kind of dude who knew his way around a paintbrush but either by nature or as a consequence was almost a total alien. Is his stuff just impenetrable or what?

It's actually not bad. It feels like he might go too heavy on the run-ons or flowery language. I thought it was a good story of seeking redemption in hell.

The book. Man knows his art.

I've been a fan of Wayne Barlowe since the Barlowe's Guide to Extraterrestrials turned up in my local bookshop 15 years ago. It's great to know he's got more and better out there even than that. He has the kind of luminous imaginative potential that makes me shiver- he has the ability to see clearly what isn't there.


Find Expedition at your library if you can. It's god damned gorgeous and written as a nature journal from an explorer of an alien world. It's out of print and runs for a hundred bucks easily. I think Alien Planet has a segment based off it or is based off it, but it doesn't cover as much as the book does.

Also worth mentioning that Gough is blind (look at how he fumbles for the bow in the video.)

Not blind, his helmet's eye slits are covered in resin. From DS2, giants appear to be some kind of weird amalgamation of earth, tree and something.

I hope some of these get used in the upcoming DLCs, especially the Lion Lord an Forest Sage. Also looks like the Faram Set originally had Bernhart's helm.

I'm getting a weird fanart vibe from this person. Like they're going to have hundreds of comics dedicated to kelpies dragging people under.

Hundreds, many of which won't see the light of day.

Just the harsh glow of a monitor as they become a vehicle for their shameful acts.

Course, I could be wrong!

In the Temur one, I just want to point out that there is a mastiff warrior in the lower right.

Big, slobbery fightmans.

I'll have to look up what book has robot gorilla power armor. I'm mostly positive it exists, though.

Check out the Karmans from AT-43.

I believe the one you quoted Frankosity is from Ringworld. I believe that's the great eye storm they pass through.

What? It's a giant sea monster with an enormous maw underneath the ship, with some light clouds in the sky. You can still see the ship's wake behind them, it's not being obscured by the monster because the monster is in the water below.

Yeah, I realized that just now.

He's also not staring down his nose at you arrogantly while clasping his hands over his paunch because he just ate a small banquet's worth of food for one meal.

That guy second from the left is incredible.

It's a good image, but I can help from being nitpicky over their body armor. Completely leaves their abdomen open. Like, 'Oh hai! Lungs and heart are protected, have a crippling gut wound!' kind of open.

GIS white walkers from the book version of A Song of Ice and Fire. The show gets them wrong, they're pretty much pale, beautiful creatures in sleek armor that have it out for mankind.

Back for the last 4e game I was involved in, I ran a Tiefling spellsinger as the mechanics behind someone who was metaphysically kidnapped by a forgotten and transformed into it's herald. I did the lineart, I had a friend color it.

My favorite detail about that one is how the hammers for the guns are built into her hands. Why do it that way? Who cares, it's cool.

That's because it's Mesa from Warframes. She has two built in revolvers that flip into her hand as her high end active skill. Said skill was overpowered as poo poo when she was launched and a good build would be able to hold an entire defense map by herself with just that skill.

Got talked into DMing a 5e game online. Not superthrilled with Roll20's search engine or my options for tokens, so I drew monster portraits to use as tokens.

Hey, do you guys know Osprey press? They do little tiny paperbacks about army x or y (aimed at modelers, I think) with distinctive color plates. Stuff like this:


Do you guys know if there's any fantasy artwork out there with a similar feel? Any kind of character(s), any kind of scene. Hell, sci-fi, even.

Osprey has you covered on that front as well. Please click. They also have a game division now and books based on myth. So those might good places to look.

Is that last one Juan Gimenez? Because that style looks like some of his work from The Metabarons.
