Comment on Abandoned Temple by ncorva

This is so cool looking! I also love how they all look like powerful, battle-hardened warriors but are still bunched up together for protection, it makes it seem like the threats in the temple are really challenging even for such capable fighters! I also think its funny to imagine the three of them shuffling along the temple bunched up like this! The unique armours also give the group a lot of personality.

Thank you! What an insightful comment!
I really prefer playing more punishing classic RPGs with tabletop mechanics than todays button mashing games.
And in games like Baldurs Gate, The original Fallout or Icewind Dale you survive by preparing and being smart. If you don't think your way through every fight, as small as it might seem, you are going to have a bad time.
So I try to put some of that feel into my illustrations.

You have some excellent taste in rpgs!! the origional fallout is one of my personal favourites! That feeling definitely comes through in your art!

Oh thank you! Yes both fallout 1 and 2 are still amazing games and they hold up pretty well to the garbage you see released nowadays. 
I guess it is just my way of exploring what interests me. I often question myself, why fantasy? And I think it is just a tool for exploring human emotions and getting to know more about people. 
So that is why story and character for me is super important.

Well said, you definitely capture a very human element in your characters!
