The Project Fairy

@theprojectfairy

I'm a gamer geek with a passion for collecting books and toying with the lives of my brainchildren! TheProjectFairy is my personal brain dump for inspiring things, amusements, and the home of my writer personality. If you fancy seeing my other creative pursuits, check out my other tumblrs for my Art, Masks, and Art Resources.

So I thought to myself "Eh I'll try to catch up on work after being off for recovery time". I ended up drawing this contribution to the cultural zeitgeist of Elden Ring instead.

It's all I could think of during the game's latter events when we're expected to carry on even while the world falls apart around us. It wasn't in good shape to begin with! 🔥🥲

Inspired by the famous comic meme from KC Green. Painted in Procreate.

Been awhile since I checked in with tumblr! I'm still here doing important things with my life like this Elden Ring meme. XD

Mineral Dragons: Restored Series

This is the complete set of finished mineral dragons, some of which have been touched up or altered to fix something I disliked about the originals.

Click the images to see the name of each mineral!

You can find the series as I originally posted them right here.

Please DO NOT repost this without credit. Either reblog it from this post, or if it’s outside of tumblr, add a link to either this blog or my portfolio blog. This has been a major problem with these dragons in the past, and I’d prefer it didn’t keep happening!

Behold the SUPER MEGA Year-End Art Compilation Post! I wasn't able to get much done with the shoulder surgery and house move happening, but what little I did manage to do I'm very proud of! 2022 was a chance to forget about being a SRS ARTIST for a while and just enjoying the painting process and spending time with my oft-neglected original characters.

FAVE ART - The Pirate's Kiss

This gift piece for @artofsamhogg marked the milestone of learning a new tool in Procreate and letting go of worries. I think the enjoyment shows in the end!

LEVEL UP - The Unmerry Band

I hadn't challenged myself to do so many different weapons, armor, and body types in a single piece before. I hope to do more like this sometime!

The Long-Term Timeline

I always like to update this art timeline every year as an ongoing tradition.

In the grand scheme of things, I can see where my draftsmanship is becoming more refined this year. Hope to keep that trend going in 2023 with more painterly work!

I've rambled more about my feelings about the upheaval in the art industry, my place in it, and my future plans at my recent blog post.

TL;DR

The increasing use of automation has me wanting to focus less on my decorative art and more on my specific characters and stories. I'm looking forward to wrapping up my Birthstone Goddesses so I can pursue more narrative art next!

Onwards to 2023!

Meanwhile, over on my art account!

The GODDESSES of SUMMER enamel pins are coming soon to Kickstarter the 1st day of summer - JUNE 21st!  Lady of June’s design has been revealed, with the other pins to be revealed in the coming days before the launch.

Sign up to the mailing list to be notified when the project goes live so you don’t miss out on collecting these pins!  

You’ll also receive a FREE coloring page of Lady of June for a limited time for signing up!

SUMMER is coming June 21st and so are my Goddesses of Summer enamel pins! I am so hyped to see these designs coming to fruition and to see this project of mine moving into wearable art, which is something I’ve always wanted to do.

I’ll be revealing the JUL and AUG pins in the next few weeks before the launch so keep your eyes peeled!

i’ve heard a lot of people talk about the EXCELLENT potential of a high intelligence/low wisdom dnd character (i.e. an brilliant academic who keeps setting their dumb ass on fire because they always store their wand in their back pocket)

but i’ve not seen any posts about the equal potential of a high wis/low int character (i.e. someone incredibly perceptive who gives deep and meaningful reassurance to their friends and then 5 minutes later asks what a can opener is)
