Burt's Fan Art for Minny!

Picture Burt decided to do some fan art for Minny. He came up with a number of different concept art trying to get the right feel. I think this was the best. 

What does everyone think?

Minny Bigrirry: Gnome Assistant Lead Digger – female, brown hair in pig tails on either side of her head, green eyes, friendly and super talkative, wields dagger and pickaxe, miner. Says hot diggity dog damn. Nickname little mouse.

Burt's Fan Art for Phoenix!

Picture Some more fan art from Burt. This time, it's a picture of Phoenix. While it looks like a simple piece of art, getting something to come out with such a complex dynamic pose and background is not easy. I think he really did a great job with this.

Her Character Sheet information is here:
Phoenix Sonata: Level 53 - Barbarian – Human female - long red hair and green eyes. Stands 6’2” with long legs and a C cup. She wears knee-high leather boots, a leather combat skirt, a chain-mail vest with black leather armor underneath, her arms are bare, and wears a black hooded cloak. IRL name is Matt. Large man, heavy set, 6'2" tall with red hair. Easygoing personality and loyal to friends. Uses a two-handed battle axe with red armor. The flying Squirrel’s name is Eterna with red and black fur. (was kissing a Wolfkin named Eza in Darom in book 4)

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. For more pictures like this and others, you can find them on my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=23281087

An Animed version of Domenic and Fiona from Karl fan art!

Picture This is one of the animated pictures of Domenic and Pounce that I thought came out really good from Karl. It makes Dom look like less an asshole than the highly realistic art =D Not to mention, I have to say I really was liking how the various characters were looking as an anime characters =D 

The World would make a great anime series!!! For more pictures, you can find them here: ​https://www.patreon.com/user?u=23281087

Burt's fan art of Ashley Duchenson!

Picture I think this really came out well, except for the tats on the face.
Both Ashley and her husband Killtet are ex-military and contacted me as fans. I ended up bringing them into the story as new Devil Dogs.
Their characters have really turned out pretty awesome and it surprised me at just how much they've become an important part of the story back in BrokenFang Hold.
Here is Ashley's information from the Character List:
Ashley Duchenson: Level 38 - Warrior/Priest – Light Elf female - IRL name Nicole Cook, wife of Killtet, Army Reserves, support for cav scout First Sergeant, Defensive - uses long sword and kite shield. 5'6", sandy blonde hair, blue eyes. Works hard to keep her husband out of trouble.

Neysa Ironwolf's new Demi-Human form from Book 12!

Picture ​This is one of my first tries for Neysa Ironwolf's new Demi-Human form that starts in book 12. I have several alternate images already posted on Patreon and I'll be posting some other pics now that I've gotten some feedback on the design. Still, as a first try, I think it's cool to see Neysa rocking her amulet of transformation!

Woohoo! The audiobook, Escape from Darom, book 10 in The World series is out!!!

Picture For those of you who have been following the art work of Helgath, this is where her changes takes place =D 

Anyway, the story with Zeven is a lot of fun and Star's and his friends' run to Darom is a non-stop battle royal!

Details:
Fleeing the horde, Startum and friends have nearly reached the safety of Darom when disaster strikes. The Chaos Storm Alliance has arrived ahead of them in full force and is blocking their escape. Not only that, the refugees and troopers that were supposed to flee and assist in the defense of BrokenFang Hold are trapped in the harbor.

Caught, outnumbered, and in the open with the endless Orc hordes at their back and ruthless PKers ahead of them, Startum must find a way to rescue the refugees and troopers in Darom while saving his friends and the House of Kayden Troopers traveling with him. If he loses here, Startum knows that his people back at BrokenFang Hold will never be able to hold against the oncoming Hobgoblin invasion.

Concept Art: A sexy picture of Helgath at the end of book 10!

Picture ​I tried to base the armor of the new breastplate she picked up in book 11. I'm not really sure which one is the better concept art for her so I included some of the pictures I liked best that the AI came up with. I like the first two pictures the best. I thought the comparison of the ugly to sexy images really highlights the change that has come over her. It also better explains Star's struggles so much whenever he's near her.

Which Helgath concept art do you like best is the question I asked the Patreon fans. I think the concept art of how she might look is a lot of fun. So far, most of the guys wanted her to look more Oricish/Goblin while the gals liked the prettier pictures of her the best. Anyway, I hope this helps visualize what's going on in the story.

(Yes I know her body in the full body shots isn't quite right. The AI has issues with completing the full body images at the right proportions.)

This is the piece of armor from the end of Book 11:

Matriarch Black Chitin Breastplate with Pauldrons
Item Quality: Uncommon
Item Type: Unique
Slot: Chest
Defense: 680
Armor Type: Medium
Durability: 300/300
Weight: 7.6 kg
+20 Strength
+20 Stamina
+20 Agility
*Removes all root effects to the wielder and their summoned creatures when caught in any web or sticky trap.
*Neurotoxin Immunity - Due to the nature of the Gigantic Cheliferidae Risso chitin this breastplate is crafted from, the wear is immune to paralysis poisons.
Anyway, I hope you like the artwork. There are a number of other variations that were posted on Patreon. I just took one of my favorites and put it here.

Fan Art of Jodi Tempest!

[image error] Burt did a series of images for Jodi, Fiona, and Blasto. While the details didn't come out great, the pictures themselves are cool and I picked what I thought was the best one to post. 

Jodi's information from the Character Sheet is here:

Jodi Tempest: level 37, Ranger/Priest, Light Elf female, 5’9”, honey-brown mid-length hair, green eyes, and a slim compact figure. Thomas IRL sister. At his request, I invited her into the guild since she didn’t meet the DD requirements. Dark brown, straight-cut hair just below the shoulders, hazel eyes, 5’6”. Skilled in Exotic Animal Husbandry and Beast Taming skill, spears and shield, dual daggers (Legolas style), and a bow. Ranger/Priest, Light Elf. 38 Charisma. Has a snow-white Blink Lynx for a pet named Fiona with golden eyes (also necklace that causes freeze bonus to attacks), secondary combat pet named Blasto – an Elite Pyro Spitter (brown with darker streaks down its back, black nose, and golden eyes.) Married to John. Combat Mount is an Elite Battering Ram called Basher.

I hope everyone enjoys the artwork. There's a lot more of everyone on my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=23281087

Concept AI art for Fylreh!

Picture I've been getting a lot of art for the series on my Patreon site here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=23281087

I decided it would be nice to share some of the pictures like I am on Facebook on my blog. I hope you enjoy:

To go with all of the other fan art that's been being posted, this is some of my own play time trying to get something that represents my vision of Fylreh. I'll be adding images that show her Centaur parts but initially, I'm only showing the "waist-up" shots I've done. 

Normally, I never wanted actual images of the main characters from the series. I didn't want to mess up anyone's inner vision of how she looks, so hopefully, I'm not making a mistake by doing this. I'd be interested in hearing what you think about it. 

I'll also be posting other concept art from other fans that have been helping me come up with something cool for Fylreh and showing their versions of how they think she looks like or at least, as close as they can get to it. 

Burt has it right that doing an AI image is nigh impossible. Out of all of the various races in my world, I think Centaurs give it the most problem. Nonetheless, I've created several partial and even a whole centaur body. I'll be offering more art as I can because it's addicting trying to get the image the way I want them to look. Especially for Fylreh, since so many fans couldn't understand why Star would be struggling with if he should or shouldn't go further in their cuddling =D 

Star's and Fylreh's intimacy is not done by a long shot. I think everyone will like how I pull the scene off when it comes ;) 

Character information listed:

Fylreh Ilyrall: Level 50 Centauride Chieftain’s Daughter – female - the oldest daughter of Chieftain – Filly (aka unmarried – not a mare) – chestnut hair and coat, golden eyes, stacked – early twenties – long bow and dual scimitars with an iron-shod shield on back. Arbitrator. Reminded me of young Lagertha from Vikings. Father is Darrix Ilyrall. Combat Pet: Elite Earth Shock Wolf Rocky. Skirmisher Class.
