Hello and welcome to my little blog. I'm mostly known as Adalbertus and this is a place where I reblog a lot of stuff and sometimes post so called original art.
You can look through the things here, or click the fancy menu in the upper left corner to do other stuff. Or you can check out other places I have by clicking one of the shinny buttons below.
Quick piece of an old scene where everyone was getting ready for a party. Iri’s good at braiding hair (usually wearing a few braids herself everyday), and Llelyth probably never had her own done like this before.
Sketches for my new reference sheet of my fursona, Shadow. The flowers in her hair as well as hair colour and accessories are optional (but add a nice touch).
Yes I actually do have a sona, but she’s been forgotten for years now since my OCs took over my brain instead. This wolf-like thing has been around since ~2007 and her design hasn’t changed THAT much, but I got tired and bored of her old look. Her body type was idealized, there was nothing interesting in her and I didn’t want to bring her back at all. I thought of redoing her to a different species - a badger, an otter, a wolverine, a bear, a house cat, a moth-like anthro creature, or something entirely original, but nothing really stuck with me as much as a canine-looking shape. So here she is with new markings, a set of small horns (god I wish that were me), an accurate body, a more-or-less resemblance of my tattoos (arm) and more space for piercings that I wish I had. I hope this will make me want to draw her more.
Fun fact, she originally started off as a Wolf’s Rain OC because that’s a good anime to watch as a kid :)) and she’s been mostly used in her feral wolf form, then the anthros started making more sense to learn humanoids. Me and my friends were obsessed with wolves back in childhood, about running free and forming unbroken bonds, and being brave and retaining ourselves as we were despite everything else in the world around us. So you can say she’s muchmore than just a furry representation to me.
A portrait of an NPC I drew a while back: Kylia, a cheeky wood elf on a spy mission she’s not really prepared for.
She’s Iri'thiel’s close friend from this time, but before Iri’s death. Kylia was mentioned in her notes a lot and that’s how she was aware she used to have a friend that introduced her to Shan'revani and wood elves’ lifestyle. A couple sessions ago they met again, and…. It was a very interesting interaction to play out. What do you do when you meet someone who knows you close, but all you can recall are only handwritten notes and hazy ideas of them? What if the things they know are no longer relevant because you’re a new person in the same body? It was a bit tough and awkward and sad to have to get to know each other all over again, but they remain good friends after all.
I used to make pictures/pinups for Easter/spring, but I have to admit my creative juices are mostly focused on something else at the moment. I might post some of my fun with IT alter this month and there’s a least a couple of RPG blogs I want to write and post on my website, but drawing is a bit of a chore lately. And by lately I mean pretty pretty much since 2018, looking back at my gallery.
But anyway, as far as updates are concerned, since I finally have at least a bit of free time, I decided to format and reinstall my main pc in hopes to fix a couple of really annoying issues I’ve been having, which most likely are related to a metric crap ton of conflicting settings, drivers and a bunch of Windows updates piled up dangerously high. If that doesn’t help…. well… I was told the new AMD processor lineup is pretty good, so it might be time for an upgrade?
What does that have to do with Easter? Absolutely nothing. Why do I post about it? Because I can. Happy Easter or have a nice Sunday, go eat some eggs and stuff, I have things to reinstall =P
The feeling of reading your notes that you’re certain were once written by your own hand, but seem detached and no longer connected with what you are now. Are they even your memories, really? Of course they are. But here you touch an open wound: your memory.
An ancient elvish watchtower high in the mountains. Somewhat inspired by one place in our RPG campaign, an ancient long since abandoned tower preserved from the war against the dragons over a 1200 years in the past. My players found it when they were experimenting with an ancient teleportation chamber.
I’m trying to improve with my more painting-like skills, but there’s a long road ahead of me. This is a second cold weather landscape pic in a row, maybe I should start doing something warmer.
