My third #krita attempt, this time with my character, Balgrim.

An attempt at drawing my character, Antiiss, riding her Gealmarra through the forest her village is in. The forest has trees so large that you can use their roots as bridges, so I tried to show that. Also, I added bioluminescent mushrooms because bioluminescence fascinates me.

Antiiss comes from a family of herders that live within a village surounded by forests and mountains, so I have been trying to adjust her clothes to better reflect that.

I haven’t named these creatures yet, but they are the main livestock for Eloailsa.

They are used for plowing soil, milk, and they are even sheared for the wool in summer. The wool is the primary fibre source for the village.

They are not fast runners, so if their young is threatened, adults form a circle of defence. Their large and rotating ears help warn them of danger.

#WorldBuilding : Fishing customs!

For the village of Eloailsa, the nearby lake provides fish, water greens, and clams. The fish and greens are preserved for the long winters, and many villagers spend mornings and evenings collecting or fishing along the shore.

I took heavy inspiration from Scottish history for the creel basket designs, but they seem to be almost universal around the world.

I wanted to work on concept art for my character and her animal companion, as well as practice backgrounds and colours, and this is the result.

Antiiss comes from a village heavily inspired by the Celtic Iron Age, and she’s very much so the trope of “weak and innocent character determined to get stronger.”

Here is the old one(first) from 2020 and the new one(second) side-by-side. I think I am improving?

I thought I would try redoing an older drawing of a character of mine. He is from a story I am working on.
