There are two figures. One is a wearing a brown tweed suit and has an eel in a plastic bag with water for a head. The other is sitting in a recliner, wearing an orange shirt and slacks, has their legs crossed, and is giving a peace to the viewer. The sitted figure has a goldfish in a plastic bag as a head.

Dungeon Drawing Delve is a yearly fantasy challenge put together by a few fantasy artists and their pals. It's a great way to experiment with character design and is something I actively look forward to every February.

Familiar Feelings

A personal project where I design a person and their familiar. I usually get the prompt from something like Illustration Friday or a random though like "I want to draw a robot today." The project was born from the need to draw people better.
