Braiiinz! Publishing: Beauty and the Myth

Sketch cards done for Braiinz! Publishing's awesome Beauty & the Myth set, scheduled for release soon. I posted the preview not too long ago, but here are some bigger, more color-accurate, and extensive scans! This was such a wonderful set to work on since we basically had free rein, as long as we put 1) a female character 2) in a non-submissive "damsel in distress" position 3) with a big monster or mythical creature. Needless to say, I had a lot of characters willing to answer that call, some of which my DA watchers might know (know intimately, by now! ), and some whom I don't think you've seen yet.

Top row: Grand Admiral Trean and her dragon Svarignath, or Little Red; Emery fending off a giant spider with a sword and a grimoire and a protective fire circle; Helimene chatting up a fashionable sphinx; Talicia chillaxing in a cave with colorful raptors; post-apocalypse Lili with two members of Arran's pack.
Bottom row: Nemo and raven!Jonah fighting a kraken; Queen Orethiel riding a hippocampus, seemingly unbothered by the fact that her dress will probably get wet; Lili striking a pose with her phoenix-owl totem; Rian riding a styracosaurus through the jungles of Venus because it totally has dinosaurs and breathable atmosphere; and Claris comforting a gargoyle.
