Improvement meme!

Book cover in progress! Love that kind of hats 🥰

Hi ! I'm Cris, a freelance fantasy illustrator, character designer & book cover artist. I am in love with fantasy, dark fantasy, eerie and pointy ears!😊

My biggest dream is to work for WotC one day 🥹

Astarion, from Baldur's Gate3 . Quick study in Photoshop.

"Ash" - an OC of mine, quick studio in photoshop.

Ci Vediamo al prossimo il 17 - 18 Febbraio! 🤩

2023 was a very intense and exciting year, in which I had some great satisfaction, including publishing an illustrated book with Mondadori, creating the expansion of the game "Bang! Legends" (out in February) and the Decktective "Arrest Sherlock Holmes!", conclude the illustrated urban fantasy trilogy "Cloack", be chosen for a prestigious artbook.... But above all (and thanks to a special friend), it is the year in which I finally picked up MY personal project again . A project that I cared about a lot, but which I had to put aside years ago for many reasons. I know it sounds silly, but being able to carve out a space just for myself again makes me really happy. There is a clue in the images. Maybe someone still remembers it... :P

Happy New Year!

Eccomi anche io su Bluesky e su Cara! 😊
Spammatemi i vostri così vi aggiungo!

One of my favorite scenes from "Cloack - Orizà", the volume 100% illusyrated by me, edited by DARK ZONE and written by Valerio la Martire. It is now available on their online sh0p. (Italian only!) 😘

➡The auction organized by Lucca Comics & Games and Area Performance is live until 12th of December. ❗️
🎨Togheter with many beautiful original paintings of various amazing artists, there will be also my "I AM NO MAN" watercolor painting. (100 x 70 cm)
🤩I was inspired by Eowyn and her epic challenge to the Witch King of Angmar, from The Lord of the Rings. I have always loved this part of the novel which is a great demonstration of "Girl Power" and I think every female who loves fantasy should be really proud of Eowyn. 🥰 And I hope you like my tribute.
🙏The auction is for charity and the proceeds will be donated to two very important causes:
- The Emergency project linked to emergency support and rescue in the Mediterranean Sea.
- The fund established by the Tuscany region to help people affected by the latest natural disaster.

Can't really wait for the Kickstarter campaign to be launched! Stay tuned and enjoy the crop of the beautiful cover that Viktoria Gavrilenko realized for this Artbook!😍

And I will be one of the featured artists! 🥹❤
