Striga sketches
A small collection of sketches exploring different moods and situations from a TTRPG campaign, featuring (mostly) Striga Roseward, a half-elven fighter with a penchant for bad choices, haunted by a gem imprisoning the Warfiend, very cozily stuck through her chest.
I feel as if sometimes, the one most important part of any piece I do is the sketch - the thing that sets the mood. composition and motion/emotion, while being one of the easiest ways to explore a character's state
Striga Roseward, inspired by the Devil tarot card, with the shadow of the Warfiend looming behind her.
After the Warfiend was revealed, it felt like a great opportunity to revisit this card.
It was important for me to capture the desperation of someone who has finally met their match - and fear
I attempted to capture the intensity of the fight scene for as short of a time as I could, while it was fresh in my memory
A moment halfway between the character who Striga is, and the Warfiend who posesses her.
Alone in the cold
A moment back in history, where I got to explore a softer side to the character
Here I felt like it was important to get the feeling of concern across, and to make sure the dynamic doesn't need any previous knowledge of the characters
A neat in-game moment of suspense
A bit of group R&R for some revelations that occurred
The second half of the party
Sketch concept for the Hanged Man - the card I felt fits the best for the character
Back in her youthful days, a sketch exploring some of the family dynamic
A mood piece, where I had to capture the pensive look of someone who realizes they have done many mistakes
The very first sketch that set the mood
