This is my Queen Bee I'm making for DnD. One of her bees snagged up some pollen from the fae wilds and brought it back. Due to the wild nature of fae, it shifted the hive into varying degrees of humanoid bees. A whole new body; still the same hive mind trying to adapt to a whole new level of complex thinking.
This queen bee was a replacement from the previous as the previous one made the hive miserable. So they didn't prioritize bringing in a smart queen, but rather a friendly (albeit very dense) one.
Backstory: he is a Goliath Viking who during a village raid, he was knocked unconscious and suffered amnesia. While recovering he defended the village and read a story about the dnd version of David vs Goliath and took the name because he thought it referred to him.
Super stoked to do a Star Wars piece. Thanks for the cool prompt u/CosmicError87 I hope that you enjoy!

Ralphs parents, a male human from the family, and Female Drow who escaped the underdark, had Ralph after his mother escaped, and came upon the family’s house. Ralph was somewhat ostracized by the family due to being part Drow, and this all climaxed when the son of the head of the Family (The heir to be head of the Family) got into a big argument with Ralph. They eventually started a duel to resolve the conflict (common within the Family). Ralph ended up killing the heir, mostly accidentally, and was banished from the clan.

Hi everyone! I'm looking for someone to rappresent my new dnd character that I'm playing in Rime of the Frostmaiden.
The charater is a muscular pirate who's ship crashed and, when starving, blocked in a cavern during a blizzard, fell into cannibalism to survive. The last person he ate was a prisoner the pirates were traveling along, an old knight of the Lord's Alliance, whose equipment was stolen from my character before arriving in town, in order to pass as respectable knight instead of a vile criminal.
The character is tall orc, with thick dark green skin and many scars from an old fight with a shark that are hardly visible underneath all the winter clothing. He wears a red wool tabard with the Lord's Alliance symbol ebroided on and a rusty chainmail underneath. Not only for protection, but also to keep unwanted meddlers to see his face, he also often wears a heavy helm with the armet pulled down.
As for his weapons, he carries both his old pirate rapier and the dead knight's sword, and a shield with the lord's alliance painted on.
His face is brutish, his square jaw covered by a scraggly beard with just one tusk protuding from his lips, as the other one broke off. His gaze is tired and drained, heavy with all the nights spent awake wrestling with the guilt of what he did.
Im not quite sure I was on the money with this one and what you wanted. But I still like how she turned out. Hope you like it. :)
This is for a Star wars 5e game I will be playing in soon. It's set in the KOTOR era so the jedi order has a bit more freedom of expression in robe color and basic lightsaber construction (it just has to be a single saber since that's whats in her character sheet). She's gonna be the healer of the group. I really like the lilac skin color with the black and white leku and montral markings but with a different pattern since the image is of someone else's character. She is also a full adult togruta so her montrals and leku are full length like in the image.

I love that you wanted a drawing of your chicken. That makes me happy.
Kept it pretty simple, tried depicting her as an inquisitor before, and some random alternate version of her outfit with, specifically a tie fighter pilot’s flight suit.
I tried capturing the more intricate patterns and clothing styles of the old republic, while trying to stay in the vein of the original reference… hope it’s not too far from what you wanted.
