Blood or no blood, what d'you think?
Happy Halloween! Here's some spooktober #Shadowgast art I did way back in '22. #CriticallyNSFW #CriticalRoleFanart #EssekThelyss #CalebWidogast #defilerwyrmart #vampires
Full-color digital fanart for campaign 2 of Critical Role in which Essek Thelyss, here imagined as a vampire and wearing his mantle of station, stands right behind and smilingly bares his fangs at the neck of Caleb Widogast, shown in his level 10 fit (clean-shaven as in canon, thank you very much), who has his eyes closed in abandon like a Gothic heroine, mouth slightly open, and one hand grabbing Essek's wrist as Essek uses one hand to tilt Caleb's head up. Essek's expression is sultry, staring at Caleb's mouth. Behind them is a simple Rosohna cityscape under a partly-cloudy night sky riddled with stars. The entire image is contained within a black-bordered heart shape. The same image as before, but in this version, Essek has blood on his teeth and a little on his chin, and Caleb has two small, bleeding puncture wounds in his neck with the blood smeared from where Essek's mouth had clearly been latched on. For the sake of muted tags: cw blood, blood cw, tw blood, blood tw.

My entry for #Kinktober Day 8: Face Sitting.
This one was pretty emotional to write. Something something projecting onto Essek with my laser.

Hi fellow artists, what do you do when your inspiration and dopamine (even worse!) level drops? Asking for a friend

Okay, so since I was under the weather, I sketched Calebean, having the worse day as well. And Essek has bean added. And then I just went with the flow, soo.. Please don't be mean, I DO know it's poorly planned and out of frame ( ´△｀)

A digital painting of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role. Both figures are visible from the side, their faces fully in profile. Caleb sits at a desk on the left side of the painting, leaning toward Essek, holding him by the chin and angling his head upward. He is wearing a simple white, collared shirt and dark pants. His hair is tied in a low ponytail. There are streaks of gray in his beard, eyebrow and at his temple. His eye appears closed as his looking down. There's a soft grin on his face. Essek is on the right side of the painting, sitting at the desk, which makes him appear lower than Caleb. Both of his hands are placed on Caleb's leg. He is wearing a deep purple shirt with a turtleneck and big puffy sleeves ending around the elbow with a big ruffle. His hair is about shoulder length, parted on the side with the bang styled in a big curl. The ends are curled upwards. The smaller part of his hair is pushed behind the ear and there is a small curl formed on the side of his head right by the ear. He's wearing an ornate dangling turquoise earring that matches his eyeliner and an even more ornate silver ear cuff. Both figures are illuminated only by an oil lamp on the far right side of the desk, near Essek's shoulder, which casts bright light on their faces and parts of their arms and leaves everything else in shadow. The light reflects on the wall behind them, creating an outline of their shadow.

Beetle-inspired armour is coloured! I had a lot of fun figuring out how to colour iridescence. XD #essekthelyss #criticalrolefanart
Essek Thelyss from Critical Role's The Mighty Nein. He is floating, facing the viewer, with his palms up and arms out. He is wearing a dark iridescent beetle-inspired set of armour with golden pieces underneath that look like translucent beetle wings. His torso is covered with 'chainmail' that looks like small iridescent insect scales. He is wearing a short, light coloured, sleeveless jacket over top of the armour. His boots are organic looking and match the beetle parts of his armor in colour.

I wanted to see him wearing gold. #essekthelyss #criticalrolefanart
A digital image of Essek Thelyss from Critical Role's The Mighty Nein. He is wearing a pleated gown with a deep V leaving his chest bare. The sleeves are as long as the gown and are split so his arms are bare. He is wearing an elaborate collar and epaulets made of red gems and chains that connect the pieces together and hang from the epaulets. This is echoed in his earring choices which include his iconic ear tips being connected by thin chains to his gem earrings. He is reaching out to the viewer with one hand while the other hand has a purple arcane sphere floating above the palm. There is a purple and green background and pink smoke in the foreground and background that writhes across the image.

I had to colour last night's sketch! His innocence is in colour now! #essekthelyss #criticalrolefanart
Essek Thelyss from Critical Role's The Mighty Nein has one hand against his chest, his fingers splayed, and a slightly shocked expresson on his face. He is wearing a dark cape, a corset, an elaborately decorated Elizabethan ruffled collar, and has aqua under eye liner. He has word balloons where he says, "Who? Me?"
