Ulnaris
#TrueRefDT015
sketchy greyscale drawing of my character, Ulnaris (or Ulna). she’s a warrior tied to the themes of death, necromancy and reincarnation. upper part of the cloth of her outfit (and her cloak in general) has an x-ray effect, so her bones are always visible when she’s wearing it. she has a sword made out of a skull of a dinosaur. her limbs are naturally longer than any human’s. a fiery skull is levitating above her hand here.

"The Taunting Huldra" for #Truerefdt015 #Scandinavianfolklore
The background is lots of tree with yellow and dark browns, the moon is shining down through the trees illuminating the Huldra sitting on the tree limb, looking down at the viewer, saying "have you lost your way little farmhand?". She's also dressed in a blue Bunad (Note: I had no Idea how many different styles of Bunad's there was and I went with a simpler style)

My entry for this month's Draw This! challenge. I feel like I ended up spending a lot of time trying to make it look quick and spontaneous 😅

There's a rule to #ArtFight - I have to draw every Changeling: the Dreaming character I come across; especially from House Balor.

So here she is, Lady Eibhlinn ni Balor for @osatosama.bsky.social - I hope you like it. :)

I used #TrueRefDT015 as a reference for her.
A traditional watercolor painting of a Balor Sidhe with brown skin, sitting on a white marble throne in extravagant clothing in magenta, purple and gold. She's smiling triumphantly while stretching out her right arm, holding a golden rapier with intricate design. The flat side of the blade is about to touch the shoulder of a kneeling knight in green armor. In the background there are two banners hanging from the ceiling: the shadow court black rose banner to the left (of viewer) and the crest of house Balor to the right - black snake entwined on a golden tower with a crimson door in a purple background. Sir Purrcival the chimerical cat is hissing excited in the background, Whitney sing the ceremony.

Attack n°2 on #ArtFight 🎭

OC: Hollis by @kitnkadoodle.bsky.social
I love autumn/faun aesthetic, I HAD to draw this beautiful character 🧡

Pose ref: #TrueRefDT015
[ #OC #faun #satyr #fantasy ]
Digital illustration for ArtFight 2026 showing Hollis, a male faun original character belonging to kitnkadoodle.bsky.social, sitting against a warm yellow gradient background. The character has long orange hair, green eyes, small freckles, a single horn on his head, brown wood-textured arms, and furry goat legs with hooves showing under a long purple skirt. He wears a cream-colored strapped corset under his bare chest and holds up one hand glowing with magical green energy, with the signature "Thelmas" (@sylval.bsky.social) written in the bottom right corner.

Flats only on the character since what I envisioned was a bit beyond my skill level but I do at least like the background and pose

Drawn for #TrueRefDT015 just under the wire I think #art
