Were the blue feathers in Vax's wing something that Liam requested, or was that your choice? It's such a small detail and so so fitting for Vax. If you can't say, that's totally fine. I'm just curious!

Requested by Liam himself 🖤

And that's a wrap on my official VM art!

I am still so so amazed by all of this.

We have truly come full circle: It was art of Vax that first made me watch CR and now here we are years later, me drawing official Vax?!Thanks for all the intense critter support over the years, folks < 3

[galacticjonah]

It's wonderful watching your journey, I have been here since your early TAZ days, and seeing you now working with the CR people is so inspiring. You improved so much and I hope you will go even further!

Thank you so so much ❤️

It has been an incredible yer while also the toughest somehow. Guess I got to set new goals now? I don't even know where to go next. I think I would love to take a course or do a mentorship, go back to learning a bit more!!

[galacticjonah]

I dont see CR often anymore bc school's kicking my butt, but the prayers circles worked. Congrats on giving us an updated Vax! He's so lovely

Thanks so much, I was so nervous for the reveal!! Hopefully the full illustration will be freed from the orb soon too lmao

Icon Commissions are officiall open!

Want to see your little guys as some fun & simple icons? Now's the chance. I'm only taking 10 slots for now, since time is scarce but might do more if things go well (and offer waitlist spots).

Important: These are mostly meant for folks who already have clear refs of characters or are happy to trust my vision. Why? Because I offer basically no revisions unless there's something really off.

Happy to have a go? Send in a request right here:

ORDER HERE

manifesting seeing lv 20 Vax in your style tonight 🙏🕯️🕯️🙏

Prayer circle of all prayer circles, babes!!!

Potentially dumb question because I am in a time bind, but you keep vaguely appearing on my dash.

Are you the one who does the portaits and character art for CR or just a lover of the art? (As everyone should be its amazing)

And if it is the former do you accept comissions in the same style??

Hi there! I am the artist who drew the official level 20 Vox Machina art, that was recently revealed, yes :)

And yes I would happily do commissions in that style for people. I'm not currently accepting any big orders like that but my wait list for January/February is open and I'm happy to talk about projects via email or DM.

As always you can find info and order form on my website right here!

Vorgoth... ❤️

And Lieve'tel joins the fight!! It was such a joy to draw her and add her to the group ✨

[galacticjonah]

Hi! I know your pinned post says to email you if we have inquiries regarding commissioning you, but unfortunately I don't think I'm in the position to pay what you most likely charge at the moment (though I'd pay thousands if I could), so I'd rather not clog your inbox. I was curious on what the general ballpark pricing would be for something in the style you did for the Critical Roll and the Vox Machina crew? Original character design, not an existing character.

Hi!! Answering here because I've had a few people show interest. Something like the VM full body illustrations starts at £400 and goes up to £700 from there. I know that's a pricetag and a half but that money gets you a very involved design process with sketches and revisions and hopefully the perfect result!

Some more fun bits about the process:

Laura requested that Vex and Percy match in their fashion, so I coordinated their colours!

There was a whole back and forth whether Scanlan would be an overall small centaur or a small gnome body on a regular horse. As you see, we went with the latter.

I gave Vex the gold earcuff. You know why~

I ended up giving myself a 'druid = body piercing' headcanon because some idiot argued that they cannot wear metal way way back when I first dre Kiki with a septum piercing. So that's why Cerkonos has a nipple ring ✌️

Taliesin came up with the suntree pattern on Percy's coat like that and it rules!!! What a rad idea.

Vex's style was described to me as 'corporate ranger'!

Both our gnomes look older than they teeechnically should, lore wise, on request of the players. I actually was really happy about that - the passage of time is important and it's beautiful to show it off ❤️

The other option for Scanlan's bumper sticker (lmao) was 'You Spice?'

I worked under my own goal to make a of these a bisexuals fucking nightmare so, yeah.

And that's all I can think of. Thank you, for liking these ❤️

Official character art for CR has been on my dream work list for a long time and now it is real. Thanks for all the love already, I gave it my all ❤️

[galacticjonah]

Holy shit! Fantastic job on the new Vox Machina art! You made them all so hot! So thank you for your service! Feel free to use this as an excuse to share anything about the process!

Thank you!!! I can't show process stuff but I'm allowed to talk about it.

All designs were created by directly corresponding and working with the cast, which was both exciting and scary, lmao. In general that was the vibe of the whole thing because VM are legendary and critters are very passionate, so the pressure to get this right was high.

Some of the cast went with vibes and story, others with detailed references, but they put a lot of trust in me all the way and I was allowed quite a lot of freedom within the guidelines. I remember Kiki's design in particular because it was just right from the very start -- honestly the biggest thrill for anyone who has ever designed for a client before!!

The designs pull from many places, so some things had pre-existing designs. Legally though they were not allowed to be similar/copying any Legend of Vox Machina stuff - so that is why some things are very different (see Cerkonos).

[galacticjonah]

They have been revealed. I worked so so hard on these, you have no idea. I'm sure we'll get the full bodies soon / I'll be allowed to share and talk more but this is it for now ❤️

(I'm also at a convention rn, I'm screaming behind the table)

Extremely emotional about this actually
