More LARP Art

Here's Snow in crinos (big hairy scary werewolf) form, and "Breakneck", another character from my werewolf LARP. Breakneck has the merit 'huge size', so even in human form he's a big, tall guy. Seven feet tall, to be exact. Snow, having the negative physical trait 'puny', is only about seven and a half feet tall in his largest form, crinos. This is what Snow thinks about THAT.

They are floating in whitespace, because I am lazy.

RPG Sketch Dump!

I've mostly been doing commission art lately, so nothing I can post online as of yet. In the meantime, however, I have been sketching and doodling during role-playing game sessions. The following are some of the better doodles. Click on any of them for a bigger image.

The first three, with the grungy-looking tan paper (this is not something I added-- the sketchpad paper is that color), are from Deadlands. You can see the group photo I drew of the characters a few posts down. First we have Lola and Emily trying to fly some sort of airship. Adam's commentary as Emily was just hilarious, and I tried to capture some of that in the scene.



Then we have Lola and her new coydog (coyote/dog hybrid), Lucky. Lucky is her familiar, and as such has a higher intelligence score than most of the other human characters-- including our 'clueless leader', Mr. Vahn.
This scene is probably my favorite. Our party stops at a nice inn and takes advantage of the hot baths. Except for Little Crow, who thinks the white savages are all insane, and will have nothing to do with their evil hot water and soaps. Lola and Emily let their hair down and play the Chinese drinking game from Shanghai Noon, supposedly taught to them by Honeybee (who is in the picture with a towel on her head). We wind up giggling more than actually getting anything done in this game, as you might be able to tell.


Moving on from Deadlands, here's a group sketch of our 4th Edition D&D characters. From left we have Saraneth the tiefling warlock (played by Virginia); a human rogue (played by John-- forgot his name-- will add later); Reynard the Reluctant, a human paladin (played by me); a human fighter (Darcey's character-- forgot her name, too); the female dwarven ranger, Ruada, and her boar, Mottle (played by Hayden); and Sif the surly, drunken, dwarven cleric (played by my boyfriend, Chris).
That's all for now.
