"Kobold With a Cold" and a Trove of Other New Drawings!

I am NOT dead, and yes I still make art! We survived hurricane Helene with only minor scrapes, and while the power is still on here I am uploading a batch of much-delayed art for you! First, a much delayed hydra:

It was drawn in the new color-pencil style we've been working with recently (and which I am still loving!). For anyone interested in it's evolution, here is a shot of the original concepts I sent in:

And I have a few more characters accompanying the "Kobold with a Cold." The first is the boy with the "Snifflin Grifflin:"

And I know all these new drawings of wizards and kobolds seem like a complete grab-bag of random nonsense, but they actually all tie together. Each of these is a part of the next iteration of the Dungeon Master Series, which is still in the conceptual phase, but has a more focused, "city watch" aspect to it for the 2025 Calendar. (It also has a card game component to it, which these one-off figures relate too, but we'll talk more about that later..).

However, most of the series revolves around the illegal cursed frog trade, (which I'm sure explains everything for you):

Remember: WE DO NOT TRAFFIC IN CURSED FROGS HERE!

Magic the Gathering: 

"Koira, Behemoth Beckoner" was recently released for Bloomburrow. And I also have a completely insane squirrel for you:

This squirrel drawing will feel different than the others because it is the only one here that was done in the classic graphite Kimberly's 2H + Staedtler 925 method. (Still love that method, but am just having a lot of fun with colored pencil at the moment!)

For anyone interested, I just posted a step-by-step in the Tutorials section on this "Squirrel Mob" card for Magic the Gathering's Bloomburrow series!
