Frith Chronicles - Abyssal Kraken god-creature [Artwork]

Hey peeps!

I finally finished my long drive to my new home in Kansas. It was exhausting, but it's over, and done with, and behind me, and now I can just focus on writing and getting everything for the release of Grandmaster Arcanist! <3

Here is the artwork for the Abyssal Kraken! It is SPOT ON. Perfect skull, great hooks in the limbs - the only thing its missing is a scale refere...

Frith Chronicles Typhon Beast + Garuda Bird [Artwork]

Hey peeps!

Two more artworks. The Typhon Beast isn't completely correct (will have to make changes) but I love the direction! The Garuda Bird is spot on, though. The little specs are birds!!

How do you all like them? I definitely want the artwork throughout the book.

Hopefully your week is going well!

Frith Chronicles Artwork [Scylla Waters God-Creature]

Hey peeps!

Fun news: I have artwork for ALL god-creatures except 2 (abyssal kraken and the sky titan). I'll be showing them off for the next few days to you all! If you think there should be changes (or you have suggestions) just hit me up.

The sharks in the picture are to show the scale of the Scylla Waters. It's massive fish monster, basically (think mermaid, but with shark skin)....

Fenris Wolf Artwork!

Hey peeps!

Here is the artwork, but I think I might need to get this redone wholesale... It's not what I imagined. o.o

A little too thin, and the chains are crazy huge (and I don't like the tail). BUT, the artist is great. I know he'll make it better, I just figured I would share this one!

What do you guys think?

Endless Undead Artwork!

Hey peeps!

Here is another one of the god-creatures. This time, the endless undead! It's probably the hardest to capture in picture form, if I'm being honest, but the artist did a good job with what I gave him, lol

Like the keeper of corpses, the endless undead is actually made of smaller corpses. Unlike the keeper of corpses, the endless undead has a skeleton (vaguely-dragon) and a...

Terrakona Artwork!

Hey peeps!

Same artist who has done everything so far (from the apoch dragon, to the phoenix) has now done Terrakona! 

I'm a little iffy on it. I may ask him to change some things, since I never considered Terrakona so thin? o.o (What do you guys think?)

Have a great weekend,

Corona Phoenix Artwork!

Hey peeps!

This one is a little more abstract. The chest is void that appears like an eclipse and corona, and the tail is marked with stars. The phoenix is basically pure flame, which is why it's flowing in the picture.

Hope you all enjoy!

Hey peeps!

I've done it! The same artist who drew the apoch dragon will be making the god-creatures! Here is his concept for the soul forge! o.o (the color is off, but I really like the arms...)

You all will get the artwork first, and I'm thinking about having a card set made (playing cards) with the creatures from the Frith Chronicles on them. It'll be a card set only for Patreons ...
