#RoArt | #RoOCs | #TheGodsMarble | #Marloix

For some context to go with my last post bc I dont think I ever shared this online. Marloix has little footpads and toebeans. He is built to run through the forests and climb trees. None of this city survival stuff. He's just a leetle chreecher.

mein herr, #myart #roocs

a drawing of my partner's character carina. she is not colored in but there is a paper texture layered over the whole image. she is standing slightly off-center with both of her hands posed up behind her head. she is smiling and looking to her left. her hair is short and styled in finger waves that frame her face. she has short, thick eyebrows and very long lashes. she has a wide nose and very full lips, with her upper lip filled in black. she has a mole on the left side of her jaw. she is wearing dangling earrings and a dress. she has a slender but curvy physique. the top half of her dress is an intricately beaded butterfly. from the bottom of it flows the bottom half of the dress, a flowing but hip-hugging semi-pleated fabric with a part for her leg to peek out of. she is wearing fishnet stockings on that leg. on both of her upper arms, she has decorated armband jewelry that has a flowing scarf-like material connecting the two together. from the fabric, there is more intricate beading hanging off like a curtain. the background is a dusty orange rectangle, stylized like a movie poster with "Cabaret" written in curling letters in light pink repeatedly top-to-down. at the very top over the white border of the image, "presenting ... carina" is written.

An NPC wood elf family living in Vitroneaux running a carpentry business from their wagon. Wood elves aren't very common in Vitroneaux nor do they stay for long so they're seen as a bit of an exotic oddity.

A series of sketches depicting a small family of Wood Elves and a mule running a carpentry business titled George & Sons Carpentry.
Each sketch has a series of notes surrounding them to describe their character.

- Eldest son.
- Yrjö gave him a girls name at birth to keep him from sharing his debt.
- They left Coniferbelle when he couldn't hide that any more.
- Likes upholstery work.
- Shy, takes on the responsibility of looking after his dad and keeping Simo out of trouble.
- Very fond of a girl but won't make a move...
- These days he calls himself Vilhelmi. Yrjö still calls him Viivi.

- Simo
- ~70

He still very much consumes my every waking thoughts.
#TheGodsMarble

A rough sketch, waist up of Marloix, a wood elf. He looks especially disheveled with messy hair hanging down over his face, neck tie undone, and lipstick smeared over the lower half of his face. His expression is forlorn. A caption across the image reads: "Absolutly destoryed on red wine, sory guys"

Lenidas and Arturion may be brothers, but they rarely ever agree.

A 2 panel comic based on the original by Andyleighr (unfortunately only found on the waybackmachine now.) Lenidas, a lion headed king, is having a conversation with his brother Arturion, a warrior with ram horns.
Lenidas: Like... Y'know, nyah
Arturion: WHAT.
Lenidas holds up a paw cutely: Nyah
Arturion: STOP.

An older one from 2023 but I don't think this one found its way to bsky yet, whoops.

A digital painting in a watercolour style with colourful penciled lines. The image depicts a freshly transformed blonde werewolf by the name of Urzula. She is facing away from the viewer and hunched over, still wearing her armoured breatplate and pauldrons, with her blue magi banner wrapped around her waist and draped over her shoulder, and torn tan-coloured leggings. Her lips are pulled up in a snarl and she is sideeyeing the viewer over her shoulder.

A few face studies for Marloix over the last couple years. I feel like I'm constantly relearning how to draw him all over again. I don't mind, he has a very interesting shaped face.

6 bust sketches of Marloix, a wood elf. Each sketch portrays a different expression and head angle. These were made in 2024.

6 more bust sketches of Marloix. Each sketch portrays a different expression and pose. These were drawn in 2025.

a drawing of three original characters cuddled together, in a chain of back-to-chest. the littlest spoon to the far left is in worn clothing that has tears in it. he has rat attributes. in the middle, much smaller and put together, is a mouse boy with much the same attributes. biggest spoon is a naga, with a relatively human torso feeding into a large snake tail, wrapping around all of them. they are fast asleep.

Urzula taking a nap while Mito prepares a meal. I like to imagine that after the tumultuous events of their meeting, as dnd campaigns do, the two of them simply travel together happily.

A digital illustration in a watercolour style. A red goblin wearing a grass cloak and feathered helmet is sitting on the ground cutting vegetables into a metal cooking pot. Beside the goblin is a yellow "wolf" resting on the ground with its eyes closed.

Marloix in his Vitroneaux style underwear. Designed his whole outfit for ToG but doubt many other players will get to see his cute floral suspenders so I wanted to draw them.
Steadily getting back into an art flow this year.

A fullbody sketch of an elven man standing with his back to the viewer. His hands are on his hips. The sketch is lightly shaded in a lavender watercolour style. The man is wearing a loose, baggy shirt with sleeves that narrow at the elbows and end with lacy ruffles at the wrists. He is wearing high-waisted pants that tighten around a slim body at the waist and are held up by suspenders crossing over his back. At the hips the pants become more loose and baggy, and hang freely past the man's heels. He is not wearing any shoes.

Slow year for art so take the rough sketches anyway. Experimenting with how a younger Marloix looks when he first arrives in Vitroneaux. I think it's starting to get to a point where I'm happy with it.

Multiple rough sketches of Marloix, a wood elf.
On the left is a fullbody sketch of Marloix wearing Sami inspired clothing and a fur-lined hat, with a sack held over his shoulder. His facial hair is fluffy and sticking out at the sides of his face.
Next is a close-up of his face without the hat. His hair is unkempt and messy with a matted braid over his shoulder. His expression appears to be unimpressed and mildly annoyed. He says "What? What's wrong with my face?"
Below that Marloix is seated while a woman stands behind him cutting his hair. He is holding what remains of his braid in his hand and looking at it. He is shirtless.
After that, another close-up of Marloix's face, turning to face the left as he's leaning uncomfortably away from a razor blade that someone has pressed against his cheek. His cheek is partially shaved already and the hair on his head is now shorter. The hair on the back of his neck and his shoulders is bristling up. Marloix is snarling and glaring at the razor while sweat beads on his forehead. He says "Careful with that thing!"
To the right are two sketches of Marloix, clean shaved with short, neatly combed hair, and the woman from earlier. Marloix appears to be wearing a more western style suit jacket with stiffer shoulders. The woman has her back to the viewer while she is holding up a hand mirror for Marloix. In the first sketch, Marloix is inspecting himself in the mirror with a plain expression, hand on his chin. In the second sketch Marloix leans back with a look of disgust on his face and says "I look stupid."

#RoArt | #RoOCs | #TheGodsMarble | #Kry | #SirSweetwater
A couple of warmup doodles to get me back into drawing this year, wasn't worried about accuracy. Good ol' faithful Kry for helping break out of art block, and a Garble character I've been adapting: Sir Sweetwater, Royal Knight of Vitroneaux.

A purple coloured sketch bust of "human" Kry. Across their cheekbones and nose bridge are lines of small scales that look like freckles, they have cat-like pupils, and long rounded ears that are too big to be human.

A rough fullbody and bust draft sketch of Sir Sweetwater. He is wearing Landsknecht styled armour, and a large brimmed hat with obnoxiously large feathers. His face is concealed by a ceramic mask that depicts plump, puckered lips, dark circles around the eyeholes and ornate patterns over the brow. He is holding a vage outline of a pole up with the text beside it: "staff? spear? halberd? glaive? ??? Just a really big stick Sir Sweetwater"

#RoArt | #RoOCs | #TheGodsMarble | #Urzula
Urzula breached containment in the last image so here's some more sketches of her. Y'all like werewolves?

Urzula, a blonde werewolf, is sitting naked on the ground in a relaxed but attentive pose, her head turned to look towards the right. The lines and colour fade out into an unfinished sketch the further down the body it goes. To the left is a small doodle of Urzula sitting, with cartoonish breasts on her chest.

Multiple sketches of Urzula in various states of werewolf transformation.
A fully human Urzula sits with her back and shoulders hunched and an anxious expression on her face, she is wearing a snarling wolf shaped muzzle strapped around her mouth, which exhudes swirling lines of warm breath.
3 busts of Urzula, one is human, the second is half-human, the third is almost fully werewolf.
Werewolf Urzula sits facing away from the viewer in a more dog-like pose than anything human. Her expression is anxious again and also tired.
Being a werewolf is exhausting!

Sentorus. Dodecatheon god of the hunting, knowledge, and storms. Pretty aloof and oftentimes even harsh god for the most part, but doesn't hold grudges, and enjoys engaging in intelligent conversation. Best pray you don't ever become the target of his hunts.
