YESSENIA “ROOK” INGELLVAR | They/Them - 38 - Mage
A Mourn Watcher who dreams of starting their own traveling funerary service. They’re probably more suited to being a court jester though, despite their appearance.
Finally got around to finishing this art of my first Rook. I always find that no matter how good the cosmetics or customization in a game I have my own vision for my player character.
WAVEBREAKER
Concept art for a personal project I worked on for a cgma class I took recently. I wanted to create an older character trying to preserve cormorant fishing while living in a Cyberpunk world.
The Rebel
Finished this a while ago for a character design class I took through #cgma !
I wanted to do an antihero archetype for a cyberpunk world where the presence of Gods is something tangible and just as real as the science used to make implants. My idea for him was someone who struggles against the idea of Gods playing influence over peoples lives but is someone who is chosen against his will. 🤔🎨
With You
A piece done for a friend.
Lazy Afternoon
I wanted to show Nymira's relationship with her magic - she doesn't take it too seriously, and it comes to her naturally as a sorceress. I imagine this results in her using it to do mundane things when it isn't going haywire for her.
A piece heavily inspired and based on Leyendecker's "Man and Woman Dancing" (c.1923).
I learned so much from studying his work and am super happy with how this turned out.
A secret moment
A painting done for one of my classes. I wanted to push my lighting to show a secret moment interrupted.
Still screaming after my first BG3 playthrough. I had to paint my Bard Tav, Vice 🤧 self-serving and silver tongued, he now resides in the underdark with his vampiric love.
the whole point of a zine is that it's cheap to produce, amateur and homemade. if you're being asked to apply to participate in a print project, it is not a zine. if the final product is being printed and bound professionally, it is not a zine. if you are being asked to enter into any kind of licensing agreement more complex than "my work can be reproduced as part of this publication" it is not a zine. nine times put of ten if the final product costs more than $5 you have left zine country. im so serious about this.

WIP
Don't know if I'll finish it, but I always loved this panel of the manga.
Another older painting! Girlfriends hanging out at the local grand balcony.

A Vampire professor and his cat. I guess I'm seeing a theme of drawing my ocs and their cats!
A rough paint of my city elf Warden Ianthe. The City elf origin always stuck out to me with how tragic it is and I wanted to capture that a bit.
Another older painting of an Inquisitor. She used to be my Canon inquisitor, but I'm thinking I'll need to replay soon. 😪

Is it just me, or is ArtStation's policy update for AI not sufficient?
I shouldn't have to go back and tag every piece to opt out. That should be the default. This feels like a flimsy band-aid on the situation. To me, they are effectively siding against artists' rights to choose to participate in Ai by making the default option "yes."
Yes, I would love for my work to be used against my will and profited off of since I didn't tag every piece!
This is not acceptable.
