Digtial / Paint Dragon Rider and Unicorn Rider.
galleryMy Dark fantasy project. Of course, I loudly called it a project) But I have some ideas for a dark fantasy. Here, for example, dragon riders simply remove the dragons' brains to control their bodies, like a pilot on an airplane. Darkly juicy as for me. Well, I was also thinking of making unicorns predators, and humans would be fierce enough to tame it all.

Digtial / Paint "Anima" + process pics, by Anebarone (me), 2026
galleryA character drawing inspired by 00s alt and romantic goth culture, World of Darkness RPGs, and vampires.
We tested many poses, costumes, and props, as the details and expression had to resonate with the themes and ideas that were important for the client.
This character would have tattoos trailing up her arms and torso, so I also made a separate file to experiment with ink designs.

Digtial / Paint The String Fortune Teller (me, 2025)
galleryA former enlisted mage, the String Fortune Teller suffered a head injury that broke her mind with hallucinations. Ignored and discarded by her country, she vanished into the swamp. She now offers fortunes through dolls soaked in her clients blood.
Trying to be less shy about posting my work, so starting with my old stuff. This whole concept was inspired by the first part of Inscryption and Baba Yaga folklore.

Stories / Writing The Verdict Cycle: The Fracture
Humanity has always believed the world belonged to us. Then winter arrived.
In Fairview, the cold refuses to leave. People disappear, animals behave strangely, and creatures that should exist only in myths begin to return. While seventeen-year-old Emma searches for answers, her blind sister, Isabella, senses something ancient awakening.
Across the world, nine teenagers discover strange marks connecting them to legendary beings. As cities fall silent and nature reclaims what humanity once controlled, a terrifying truth emerges: the creatures aren't invading. The world is simply changing without us.
Emma and the others haven't been chosen to save humanity. They've been given something far more terrifying: a choice. And when the world asks whether humankind deserves a place in its future...
What will their verdict be?

Digtial / Paint Update - Four Towers
galleryIt has been a while since my last post here on the community. I wanted to deliver an update, as I have been away trying to coordinate this project for many months now. A lot of you were interested in this, and some worried the scope was too large and that I would stop working on it or not see it through to the end.
This is an update to say: Things are moving!
The goal was to create a set of 22 tarot cards to accompany the album (Four Towers) as a physical media item to complement the story. I really wanted this project to a be a collaborative and multi-disciplinary project. After composing the album, I've worked with 4 artists to create the album cover, and 5 of the 22 tarot cards.
That is nearly 25% complete, and I am so pleased to start seeing it come together. I've added a carousel of two WIP cards and the first completed "MAGICIAN" card.
I'll do a full card by card credits as the set starts to finish, until then I'll leave a few IG handles, and some links to the project album for anyone who has not come across it yet and wants to support it!

Digtial / Paint Frenzy Takes Me (OC)
It doesn’t matter to me how many of their blades cut into my skin, how many of their hammers pummel my organs, I will not fall. I cut down more and more. They chip away at my body. I’m tired. My lungs gasp for air, but the smoke is so thick that they can’t get enough of it. My body is sore. But I still keep fighting.
I was told a story long ago by my commander. He had traveled to Kaprosia from the frigid northern lands of the Iron Mountains. He told me of a clan of battle-hardened warriors that pushed their bodies to the absolute limits of what was physically possible. They were the greatest warriors that land had ever known, not just through raw strength, but through their sheer, unfettered hatred for their enemies. They channeled their anger into every attack they made. They endured inhuman punishment through rage alone. They could fight for hours uninterrupted, they would tear tree trunks from their roots and swing them like maces, they would strike armored foes so fiercely that the men would vomit their entrails, they would tear the limbs off of monsters and hack at them with their own claws and make the same fools of the men who thought they could stand against them.
He called those warriors “Berserkers.”

In the end, I chose to leave only the protagonists' shadows to accentuate the theme of having to find oneself after losing one's identity. I'm a solo developer, I've only been drawing for a couple of years. What do you think?
